Torbjörn has the highest counter score in the entire Overwatch table right now, at +39.5 against D.Mon. Illari is second at +33.7. Nothing else is close. The best matchup that does not involve D.Mon at all is Mauga into Wrecking Ball at +22.0, and 99% of the 2,756 matchups tracked sit below 11.2.
These numbers are as of August 24, 2026 and cover three weeks of D.Mon data. That window opens after her buff, so none of it describes her launch state.
What the number means
Counter score is not a win rate. It measures duel-share points above expectation, so zero means the matchup goes exactly as both heroes' general form predicts, and a hero who is strong everywhere gets no credit for being strong here.
Torbjörn's teams normally lose the death trade, winning 45.4% of the deaths in fights he is present for. Against D.Mon that goes to 65.4%, across about 24,900 tracked deaths. Illari moves from 48.0% to 64.5%. The sample doubled over the past week and both numbers went up rather than down.
It is team pressure, not the duel
A counter score splits into two halves, and this one is lopsided. Only +11.6 of Torbjörn's +39.5 comes from winning the one on one kill trade. The other +27.9 comes from his side winning the fights D.Mon is in. Illari is starker still, at +2.6 from the duel and +31.1 from team pressure, and her duel half is small enough to be noise.
Neither of them out-shoots her. They make the space she wants to hold expensive to hold. Playing into either one, expect to feel fine in the individual fight and lose the fight happening around it.
Tank matchups
D.Va (+13.2) and Mauga (+10.4) counter her properly, and they do it in opposite ways. Almost all of D.Va's edge is team pressure, while Mauga's is mostly the duel. Ramattra (+4.9), Orisa (+2.0) and Roadhog (+1.8) are slightly ahead.
It runs the other way into dive. D.Mon is favoured into Winston (+7.1), Wrecking Ball (+6.5), Domina (+3.9), Hazard (+3.4), Sigma (+3.3) and Zarya (+2.4). If the instinct is to dive a D.Mon, the numbers say bring something else.
Maps and allies
She prefers point capture, at 55.5% on Control and Flashpoint against 53.3% on Escort and Hybrid, and her worst map is Circuit Royal at 50.8%. That gap is real but ordinary for a tank, and nine of the fifteen tanks swing further between their best and worst mode than she does.
Her best partner is Zenyatta at 1.4 points above expected. Her worst is Mercy at 1.7 below, who is also the hero D.Mon most outperforms.
Treat it as provisional
Three weeks is not long, and new heroes distort things by being new. The per-rank scores look unstable, but the raw death shares behind them are flat from Silver to Diamond, so that is the baseline moving rather than the matchup. Above Diamond there is not enough data to say anything at all.
A counter score near +40 has never held its level anywhere else in this table, so Torbjörn and Illari will most likely soften. Whether the team pressure half stays dominant once people have learned the matchup is the thing worth watching.
All of it refreshes daily, so D.Mon's hero page and her counters page will be ahead of this article by the time you read it.
