How would you beat this comp?
Pharmercy, Tracer, Genji, Winston, Lucio

Mirror it, but run D.Va over Winston.
Hog, Soldier/McCree, Zen, Mercy/Ana, Rein/Winston, and a flanker.
Assuming those pleayers are great at those characters. It's hard.
If you are defending. I would have an Orisa shielding a Bastion or Torb turret to take out the Pharmercy. Symmetra with turrets around the point to protect from the Genji, Lucio and Tracer. Zarya can help protect your teamates and also do some good damage. DPS's I would go Soldier or McCree. Healers would be Zen and Lucio.
Literally the exact opposite of everything you said here.
I'm confused what is the opposite of my picks?
like I said at the first of my post, if that team they showed was really good almost no comp on defence is going to be able to stop it. Of course I am thinking of defending a map like Route 66, Hollywood or Hanamura. not after the payload starts moving. and definately not for a control point map.
basically saying "if a team is better than you they will win"
In order to counter that comp you would basically mirror it on defence. They have a huge mobility advantage that really needs to be matched.
I don't think you're wrong. The key element being Zen+Torb+Orisa which means Pharmercy can't drop the turrent quickly, which forces Mercy to keep healing Pharah. Which means Pharmercy is just Pharah. Which soldier can clean up.
Pharmercy, soldier, Zen, Winston, D.va would be my comp (Maybe a hog over Dva). Basically since they have no reliable Pharmercy counter you have the abuse that. Zen Discord will help against their Pharmercy, Winston and D.va can counter dive the flankers they send after you. D.va effectively deals with pharah ultimates. Zen can just save his ultimate for genji.
That is how I would go about it (I assumed a KOTH setting as otherwise the map layout and attacking or defending would make a difference here)
Yeah was thinking how to defend ourselves against that triple dps dive comp in maps like Kings Row and Numbani, same comp as you said but Hog instead of Winston and Ana instead of Zen is what I came up with
