Why is Hanzo so popular?

He is certainly the best all rounder for projectile heroes. No major weaknesses, great mobility, great damage. His ult is his weakest factor and it's still considerably better than most DPS, and doesn't require him to be in a vulnerable position to use it, like all other heroes in the game.
