On the other hand, The 290 has most of the other advantages. Superior firepower, strength, targeting systems, range, protection, versatility (D.va's mech is apparently a repurposed modular drone, but we've never seen an alternate configuration in the comics or cinematics), and a superior top running speed when compared against gameplay.

Even if she can take his mech out of play, Roman has shown he can snap fire a shot off at DMR range, and unless she managed to take his mech out without resorting to self-destruct, she is very squishy on foot, so if the mechs cancel each other out, Roman wins. You already asked, and I already answered.

I will add to this though. If she could avoid immediately getting killed after initiating a self-destruct, she could try hiding until she can call in another, but that trick probably won't work twice.
