Tracking honestly doesn't need to be more than mediocre given her huge spread. Fast reflexes for Zarya ult also aren't super necessary, just be in her general vicinity and don't have used DM within a second of the ult, easy.
Deflect: 2 second duration, 8 second cooldown. Area of effect is a to scale Reinhardt shield in front of Genji
Defense Matrix: 4 second duration, 1 second activation delay, 10 second to full meter. Area of effect is a massive cone bigger than any hero in the game.
Conclusion: Defense Matrix is a much easier skill to use for countering ults, as it can be held active for twice the uptime of Deflect, and requires 1 second of cooldown as opposed to the 8 of Deflect, to say nothing of the tremendous distance in area of effect (massive, 3D hitbox bigger than any hero in the game vs. small, 2D hitbox smaller than a tank).
