Should make the combo pretty anti flank, especially with them both being given generous mobility.
Kiriko + Zen also works. Like exactly 150 damage

You are assuming headshotting Tracer with her weapon would be anything like something that you would pull off with any kind of consistency.

Well Tracer isn’t even problematic after they reduced her damage considerably. They really need to reduce Genji healthpool to 150-175 so he requires some risk / reward and feel less oppressive to support role because he makes that role unfun (otherwise I expect high queues). He just has too many cheese mechanics

I will pull it off with plenty of consistency. I am an aim master 5000.

You shall free her from suffering and put her back into the cycle of reincarnation. Or at least back to the spawn room, which is a somewhat acceptable facsimile.

I figure part of it is that Tracer can’t recall if she’s instakilled.
It’s part of why Mei is a threat against Tracer, with her 150 damage Icicles.

Only bad Tracers will get head shot by Kiriko.
Swift step is on an 8-9s cooldown. It’s not that generous compared to guardian angel.
I can headshot Tracer’s as Mei, you just gotta get practice and “the feel” for it
Will be same with Kiwi

I play Mei, and I can do the same, but that is because Mei’s icicle is VERY forgiving.
Kiriko’s shots are very much not, so you are very unlikely to be able to replicate that with Kiriko.

I think we can only speculate so much until we get our hands on her for ourselves lol
I do hope she can protect herself against flankerwatch though, and isn’t defenseless feeling/has to tele away every time

What will you do against a dodge master 5001 Tracer?

Easy, simply grind to become aim master 5002

Should be about as consistent as mei’s right click.
Also sometimes it’s about the threat just as much as being able to hit. Tracers will and should think twice about something that is trying to merk you in one shot.
Not even close. The hit box on icicle is VERY different than the hitbox on the Kunai.
Icicle being VERY forgiving is the only reason it works at all.
Is it? Wasn’t aware the details for kiriko have been released.
Yeah, a bunch of details are out, and ML7 etc who have been playing her say it requires pin point accuracy, and right there is why it will be a problem to land it like icicle.
Odd that they made a projectile that’s not a tree, has me worried.
She is meant to be super high skill in landing those shots. That is why she gets a 3x head shot mod.
