Engineer wrecks. His buildings offer more options, as he can gain mobility from his teleporter, dispensers metal than Torb's passive metal regen, in addition to health and ammo. Engi's sentry also offers more fire power, as Engi's has more damage and rate of fire than Torb's. I think Torb's has better range, but that problem is easily fixed with the wrangler, which also increases Attack power through a rate of fire increase and gives a massive damage reduction (66%, I believe). If his trailers are to be believed, he can also deploy multiple sentries, where as Torb's has shown to only deploy one at a time.

Engi also has the strength advantage from being able to pickup and move all of his buildings, which have been stated by the man himself to weigh in the ballpark of at least a few hundred pounds, and intelligence due to having nearly a dozen PHDs (No exaggeration). Speed, and expierience are around the same, but then we have Durability which goes to Torb's through his armor packs. His ult also presents issues with a sentry upgrade and higher stats, but Engi can just turtle in a building with a level 3 and wait it out.

Tl;dr

Engi:

+Stronger

+Smarter

+Wider arsenal

+Superior buildings for mobility, defense, and offense

+ +Dispenser grants far more metal much faster

+++Sentry is all around better, and can stay in level 3 permanently

++++Can potential deploy more than 1 sentry

= Speed and Expierience

-Durability

-Ult presents many problems

Torbjorn

+Durability

+Ult could tip the scales

= Speed and Expierience

-Not as strong

-Not as smart

-Sentry is weaker in many categories, and can only go level 3 for a few seconds

-Worse arsenal

The winner is The Engineer
