D.Va.Defence Matrix: How is the damage blocked stat calculated?
Most of the time it's pretty obvious how damage blocked is calculated. It's the damage of the incoming attack. But how is that calculated for ultimates? If I eat a Hanzo's Dragonstrike, Mei's Blizzard or Zarya's grav, how much damage is that calculated as?

How does D.Va matrix work?
Defense Matrix is a field that D.Va emits that will block most projectiles in Overwatch. It will not block beams like Zarya's primary fire or Moira's ultimate (Coalescence). D.Va can use this ability to protect her teammates by \u201ceating\u201d shots and important abilities.How does D.Va shield work?
For 2 seconds (when resource meter is at full charge), as long as the button is held, D.Va deletes enemy projectiles within a 10-meter cylindrical range in front of her to protect her allies. She is also able to block an attack that is obstructed by her teammates.Does D.Va shield block D.Va ULT?
If a shield has at least 1hp, it will still block damage from Dva's ult.How long does D.Va defense matrix last?
Defense Matrix has infinite "health" and can block any number of projectiles, it only lasts for 2 seconds when used continuously, and requires 1 second before beginning a recharge.
