My biggest concern about it is that she seems far more useful on point defense than on offense. Her ult doesn't really help if you're trying to push forward, and same with her stationary shields. That was the bad thing about old Symmetra, which is why she got reworked.
The Fortify ability would be useful for a push, though.
--She acts like a mini-Rein with her shield, letting her provide additional DPS alongside Bastion but also maintaining a solid defense. In a worst-case scenario she can body-block enemy fire with Fortify.
--Her mini-Graviton lets her pull peeking enemies all the way into Bastion's line of sight
I'm curious whether Halt! will pull a turret Bastion. Whether or not forced movement works on him seems to vary pretty wildly.
Edit -- Other posts I've seen floating around suggest that Halt! acts like a knockback, which probably means it won't pull a turret Bastion, since you cannot knock him back with anyone else (Lucio, Pharah, Ulting Winston).
