It's just gamer slang for 'difference' as in skill or performance difference. Simple as that.
Played a match where their DPS was on fire while ours were struggling. Total 'DPS diff' situation. Happens!
In Overwatch, 'diff' is short for 'difference.' Players use it to point out the gap in skill between two players, usually the same role on opposing teams. For example, if someone says 'Widow diff,' they mean one team's Widowmaker is outplaying the other.
