Hi there. Symmetra main here. I made a post on the Blizzard forums and wanted your opinion about it.

An overview of short-range (10m) attack heroes:

Mei: 250 HP | Invulnerable Self-heal | Fast Wall Placement
Reaper: 250 HP | Attack Self-heal | Invulnerable Escape
Doomfist: 250 HP | Additional barrier HP on attack | High Mobility/Escape

Honorable mention (short-range, but a support):
Brigitte: 250 HP (50 Armor) | Self-heal on attack | 500HP Barrier

Symmetra: 200 HP| Slow TP escape

The main issue is that all the other short-range DPS attack heroes have 50 additional health and either self-sustain or a quick escape (or both).

I feel that if Symmetra had 50 additional health, in the form of shield health (which can’t directly heal by Symmetra but would recover after the fight) and a faster TP deployment, then her viability would increase without making her overtuned.
