The former can be a little more aggressive on vertical maps whereas the latter controls space quite well on flatter and more narrow maps. Both are able to pressure her if she positions close for a Rocket Barrage and facilitate their teammates in their own ways. Instead, see if your team would work around more traditional picks to counter Pharah. You can also save your rock for her Resurrection as well for an easy stun. A clutch stun onto the Mercy can leave her wide open for your DPS to remove off the board. Sigma also shines here for the same reasons we listed earlier.

That said there is another aspect to Pharah that we simply cannot ignore her typical pairing with Mercy. Really any hero that is going to immediately threaten the Pharah to keep her in check is going to shine. This is due to the immediate and precise nature of their weapons rather than having to arc and wait for a projectile to land. Whereas heroes like Cassidy, Ashe, or even Soldier: 76 (yes, even post nerf) are excellent at dealing with Pharah. However, the cast is chock-full of hitscan DPS that can clip Pharah’s wings. That already makes it difficult for projectile heroes like Hanzo or Genji to play well into her.
