@KelRiever Not all defensive characters need to be buffed. Gibraltar has been buffed, and then nerfed because he was too strong.
The defensive abilities are great.
Gibraltar’s dome shield is literally indestructible, and he can revive faster when inside. His ultimate is good for a congested spot or just in general. Throw it on top of an enemy squad and they will be forced to move or take loads of damage. Gibraltar’s dome shield shouldn’t protect from the zone, as the zone is supposed to reduce the available space to fight in.
Yeah, some of the abilities are more niche than others, but take a look at Mirage. He has some actually good abilities, and they work in most situations, but he just isn’t used much because his abilities don’t help his team at all.
If the defensive characters are good at defense, then let them be good at defense. They aren’t supposed to be specialized for offense, but they still work ok.

I hate to say it but Mirage hasn't been used since Octane. Mirage was the other go-to solo character besides Pathfinder, until Octane got better than both of them for people who just run and gun and drop by themselves.
