So this is a bug as of this new midseason patch I’m fairly certain but it involves many interactions in the game revolving around counterpins. Mauga never used to be able to counterpin anybody but himself during his overrun ability, but now any time a brig shield bashes, doomfist punch, reinhardt charge, the people opposing the mauga fall on the ground and get stunned. The same thing applies to orisa’s fortify. She can counterpin rein’s charge, brig’s shield bash, and doomfist punch when in the past, people would just hit the orisa and act as if orisa was a wall collision, stopping them in their tracks. Mauga used to boop the opposing people attempting to counter pin him, deflecting them almost. This was never an interaction mentioned in the patch notes nor does it make sense with how the orisa counterpin interaction for years has always been where she acts like a wall
Yep, tonight I played Doom against Mauga and I got counterpinned, im like huh??? since when
