There are plenty of heroes that have natural counters to bombs; Pocket, Ivy, Mirage, Yamato. Having a Dyanmo or a Viscous on the team can protect other teammates and themselves from bombs without purchasing an item.
To be fair, countering with items is part of any moba style game like this. I don't want to have to buy metal skin to counter haze but more often than not that is what I have to do.
The .3 second delay on echo shard effectively nerfs the double bomb build as heroes can just dash away out of range before you can get the second bomb off. Makes bebop a useless hero against any team that knows how to play the game.
