Sometimes, when a Doomfist’s Rocket Punch connects with a wall (instead of hitting an enemy player) and leaves a crater texture, it will also leave stationary red-and-white sunbursts radiating from the center of the crater. I think these are leftover effects from the impact animation, and froze instead of fully animating and disappearing as normal. It stays in the wall until the game ends.
I’ve seen this happen randomly regardless of whether the Doomfist player was myself or the enemy team. The glitch also shows up for some players and not others; who sees it seems randomized as well. I’m not yet sure if the effect can be seen by more than one player in a game.
This is by no means a major issue, but it is still distracting and strange.

Sometimes I see Doomfist craters in walls without a Doomfist in the game?
Across multiple maps too like Ilios or hanamura
I’va had it too over several maps but was wondering if it was maybe my PC since I never saw it on the killcam or when asked no one else seemed to see it.
In case anyone else is questioning it I took some screenshots:

It can get pretty irritating when you have a red flash in the corner of your eye and think it might be an enemy even though no one is anywhere near those craters.
I’m getting this Problem mainly in ffa since it’s the mode I play the most however this bug is getting somewhat ridiculous once you have 2 or more Doomfists fisting around the map.

However this also happens on other maps in quickpay.
From my knowledge this started once Patch 1.22.0.1 went live on April 10.
I didn’t really say anything since I thought it might be a small glitch or something which will be fixed on the next Patch.
It has now been almost 20 days and two patches and I can’t even find it on the known bugs section. (I might be blind it happens from time to time :P)
I know Blizzard has a lot do do after each patch and I don’t want to tell them what to do. I just want to raise awareness that some players are having this problem. Although not gamebraking it is quite annoying.
