Character Overview

I came up with this idea as a hard counter to pesky heroes such as Genji, Tracer and Medivh, allowing her to shut them down effectively. However, due to her fragility, AA heroes such as Butcher, Raynor and Valla can deal with her easily, as can stealthed heroes that can hunt her down or ambush her at a locator beacon.

I was divided on whether she should be classified as a support or specialist, but I decided on support given that she can put out decent healing numbers if talented for it.
