Orisa's Energy Javelin has a strong amount of knockback in addition to its respectable damage. Take advantage of Energy Javelin's knockback by using it to send key enemy targets out of position and into walls and pitfalls.
Like D.Va's Defense Matrix, Orisa's Javelin Spin can mitigate or negate deadly abilities and ultimates if timed correctly. A list of significant ultimates and abilities that Javelin Spin blocks can be seen below:
Orisa's Javelin Spin also has the unique characteristic of knocking enemies backward while dealing damage for its duration. Use this feature to shove enemy Tanks and frontliners out of the way and provide your team with positional advantages.
With Orisa's Fortify making her unstoppable, she can use it to mitigate and deal with crowd control abilities and ultimates. Use Fortify to shrug off abilities like Zarya's Graviton Surge and Mei's Blizzard, and continue pushing back against your enemies' offense.
Orisa is a hero that tends to charge forward. One of the best ways to take care of her is to shield your team using Reinhardt until she gets close enough to the team. From there, close-range heroes like Reaper can take her out.
Orisa's ultimate allows her to bring enemy heroes closer to each other similar to Zarya's ult. Heroes with abilities that make them invincible for a time like Reaper Warith Form or Moira's Fade can be used to escape her ultimate. Pharah can also use Jump Jet to escape.
Of course, using Zenyatta's ultimate will heal most of the damage from Orisa's ultimate.

Orisa is a project born of the mind of an 11-year-old genius. She was built from a defense robot that Doomfist destroyed during his first attack on Numbani and given a personality core along with her AI. While Orisa still has much to learn about the world, with Efi's support, she will stand to protect Numbani and Efi no matter what.
When Doomfist and Talon agents attacked the Numbani Heritage Museum, Orisa was there for a rematch.
While she was defeated by Doomfist again, Orisa was not destroyed and held them long enough for back-up to arrive. This forced Talon to retreat for the time being.
