Heroes that work well with Ana

Good partners for Ana: pick one beside them, or pick Ana beside one.

Tanks

Mauga (good pair): her long-range healing and Nano keep the biggest health pool in the fight while he anchors
Ramattra (good pair): Nano on Nemesis Form and anti-nade on the front line he punches through
Reinhardt (good pair): shield covers her long sightline; anti-nade and Nano on his walk-in win the brawl
Roadhog (good pair): Biotic Grenade boosts his Breather healing; Sleep sets up the hook
Zarya (good pair): Nano on a high-charge Zarya; anti-nade into a Graviton
D.Mon (decent pair): Nano on a committed mech; anti-nade on the front she cuts
Domina (decent pair): segmented barriers protect her immobile firing line in poke
Junker Queen (decent pair): Nano into Rampage; heals her from range during the brawl

Damage heroes

Genji (great pair): Nano Boost on Dragonblade (Nano Blade) is a defining fight-winning combo
Anran (good pair): anti-nade stops their healing so the burn finishes the target
Pharah (good pair): long-range healing reaches her in the air; Nano Boost on Barrage
Reaper (good pair): Nano on Death Blossom makes him survive inside the enemy team
Soldier: 76 (good pair): Nano Boost with Tactical Visor (Nano Visor) is a classic ultimate combo
Ashe (decent pair): long-range poke pair; anti-nade on the target she burns
Cassidy (decent pair): anti-nade on the target he flashes
Echo (decent pair): scoped shots are hitscan, so she heals a flier other healers can't reach
Emre (decent pair): long-range healing and anti-nade back his mid-range trades
Hanzo (decent pair): long-range poke pair
Sojourn (decent pair): both trade at range from the same protected line; Nano on Overclock

Heroes that clash with Ana

These pull a different way from Ana: the pair can still work, but it takes more care.

Tanks

Wrecking Ball (clash): rolls far out of her sight and leaves an immobile Ana with no peel
Doomfist (minor clash): punches in and out faster than her shots can track and leaves her unprotected
Winston (minor clash): jumps away from her and she can't follow, so she is alone when divers come
