Counter 7's ult
As me and my friends have played i've noticed 7 can really dominate with his ult. What are some ways you can counter him especially when you get pushed into base?

Have a Bebop sac himself by pulling him down behind cover. Or just focus and CC him before he ults.

stun him or sleep him is effective

Get the Knockdown item and the problem is solved. Get Curse and burst 7 down. Reposition if you have no hard CC and lean to shoot from cover.

I don't think their point was to cancel the ultimate. It was more to reposition him to where he can do no harm to the rest of your team.
Still, trip9g gave you the answer you need for that.

Any stun stops the ult immediately once delivered, as does simply killing him with overwhelming damage; he's entirely stationary for the full duration, so he's not going to be dodging the hardest hitting attacks in the game. Ivy's Kudzu and Shiv's Serrated Knives are both great since they do extended Spirit damage with high output if you built for them and only take a moment of exposure to the storm to aim and launch.

Some stuns (Ivy's rump stomp, low mobility Dynamo ult, etc.) can't reach him if he uses the rail system to launch himself high over the spawn zone or jumps from an elevated platform to zap an area. A smart tank and/or support will have targeted useable items to inflict stuns and silences, though.

Bebop and Paradox can both forcibly move him into cover or somewhere else where he'll do less damage; Paradox needs her ult for that, while Bebop is only burning a basic ability. Kelvin can drop his dome to provide a LOS block, but that's another ult-for-ult and if done poorly then he might lock himself inside with Seven and get zapped like a Tesla dome.

As Haze, i just kill him. They nerfed his power scaling so his ulti isnt rly THAT dangerous, you can EASILY outleech his damage. And if you have toxic bullet or anyone apply antihealing, its just joke.

Shiv's serrated knives are the least damaging abilities in his kit.

They still do a great job against a stationary target at any range and can whittle away Seven's HP bar just fine; other skillshots often have upper limits on their range and can't reach him when he opts to use the rails for a high altitude storm.
