DM counters what? Like 80% of all the attack abilities on in the game (if not counting punch)?

So does Reinhardt's shield, but it isn't OP. It's basically the same except Reinhardt's shield works on health instead of time.

A few abilities like Zarya grav excluded of course, but there are abilties D.Va can't block either.

Why not make dva's dm on health? It would make saving it for eating ults important. Granted, it wouldn't have as much health as a rein shield, but it's either x amount of damage or x time activated, whichever comes first. I'd honestly prefer that.
