A fully charged hanzo shot does 125 dmg, thus it won't oneshot a Tracer unless it is a headshot (tracer has 150 life).
Scattershot on the other hand shoots 5 arrows which do 75 damage per arrow and 125 per unscattered arrow. The arrows also bounce up to 5 times. Thus if you get hit by multiple arrows it will kill you.

McCree is good offense and defense. He can put out a lot of damage with his secondary-attack / Combat-Roll / secondary-attack kombo (combat roll reloads the ammo). The effectiveness of the ultimate depends on the map-layout, also a Reinhardt in the enemy team can be a problem, since it blocks his ultimate.
For infos about heroes and abilities you may want to checkout out our Overwatch App Ginfo (iOS, Android). Spoiler: I'm one of the developers. Feedback is always welcome :)
When the enemy picks 6 of the same hero you can counter them quite easily, since all heroes have quite a strong counter hero. It gets a bit harder if for example they have 2 reinhardts and 4 soldiers.

Zenyatta's orb of discord is removed when you lose sight for 3 seconds (in the first beta I believe this was not the case). Also some abilities which provide invulnerable remove the orb.

For infos you may want to checkout out our Overwatch App Ginfo (iOS, Android) which contains a lot of information, counters, ability-values (damage, duration, cooldown,...) and strategies/tips for all heroes. Other than that it's just practice. Try to play a lot of different heroes in order to get a feel for the strength and weekness of each hero.

I've used https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.innovaptor.ginfo.overwatch since beta as a reference for stats and damage numbers and stuff, and they keep up with updates and show patch notes in-app. You can also put in your battle tag and it will show your quick play and competitive play stats
Sometimes it may be better to use the secondary attack of Shuriken since it is easier to hit something, especially on close range.
Also never forget that deflect can be used on nearly everything (not on junkrats ultimate though, I learned that one the hard way).

If the team is premade and reacts accordingly it isn't that hard though, so I believe over time players will pick the same 6 heroes less and less, since most have really good counters. For Torbjörn there are: Pharah, Junkrat, Hanzo, Widowmaker and Winston. You can also add Reinhardt, to soak up some damage for a short period of time. If they are protected by a Reinhardt you can also add Symmetra since her secondary attack pierces.

Nice writeup. May I ask if we could use some parts in our apps? We have recently updated our Ginfo for Overwatch apps (iOS, Android) with a strategy/tips section for each hero but more information is always better.
PS.: The iOS update which includes the tips is still in review, so it may take some time until it is public.
Bastion/Torbjörn in combination with a Reinhardt can be a strong defense, but soldier and mccree are also (generally) good options.

we have added Doomfist to our Overwatch Companions apps, including the numbers for all of his abilities.
The apps are available for web, iOS and Android.
The main features of the apps are:
- View your Overwatch profile statistics (as list and graph) for quick play and competitive play (currently only on iOS and Android)
- Hero and ability numbers (e.g.: damage, duration,...) for all heroes
- Good against / bad against hero section
- Strategy tips for all heroes
We just released our Overwatch app for the web: https://overwatch.ginfo.gg/. It is also available for iOS, and Android.
If you are not familiar with the apps, they contain:
- Information about all heroes including data for abilities (damage, cooldown,..)
- Good against / bad against for each hero
- A list of tips for each hero
- Your profile statistics and visualization of your profile-data via diagrams (at the moment only on iOS and Android)
We are currently working on adding the profile and statistics features which are already available for iOS and android to the web as well. Any feedback or suggestions are highly appreciated.
I have the Ginfo app on my phone
