It sucks that it was just seen as “Oh another Mercy thread off you go”.

OP, I just remembered this beauty of a… bug? Or just bad design?
This only happened to me once but still.
“A bug is buggy.”
Shocking! Who would have thought?
I find It hilarious when players say things like “this bug hasn’t been addressed in over a year devs need to fix it” but if anyone says something about super jump as a bug they will turn around and say “ITS BEEN IN THE GAME FOR OVER A YEAR IF THE DEVS WANTED IT GONE THEY WOULD BE FIXED ITS A FEATURE NOW”
Some of these aren’t bugs, they’re design choices.

Thanks for the videos, I have posted them to the OP post.
Not all that well organized but not too hard to read. Any improvement suggestions ofc are welcome. I don’t mind making this into a super thread.
Here you go Hana. Posted by official Overwatch league channel.

That is not a respond from a dev.
The pros call any exploit a “trick”. That is what pros do. They will exploit anything that gives them advantage and is not bannable.
Why someone from OWL team has decided to post exploits in an official channel is anyone’s guess.
Superjump makes Mercy infinitely easier to be hit by hit scan enemies
There are situations where super jump can save you and as many situations where it can kill you

Everything is a bug if blizzard decides it’s a bug, doesn’t matter how long it’s in the game. How long it’s been in the game is meaningless.
Developer note: fixed a bug which caused some forum users to post off-topic.

vertical mouse movement is a lot harder to gauge.
It’s not an exploit. It’s programmed to work like that. Super jump is just slingshot, but vertical. You’re pointing your cross hair down to register GA from beneath your ally instead of the side of them, then using slingshot to take you in the opposite direction of it.
It’s no different than had you used GA on a player that’s above you on the side of a platform or something.

It is completely on topic cuz is a bug/exploit and the thread is about that.
No it is not. it is caused by clipping in the floor.
You’re never in the floor. Like at all. So. no.

Genji: Has the ability to wallclimb while in the air to regain air control with his double jump, something that is essential to making double jump have even a niche use in a duel.
Mercy: Has the ability to shoot into the air and enter low altitude orbit to avoid any close range threat, when she already has the ability to GA to an ally further away from her.
Somehow Triple Jump was a big enough issue to be removed but Mercy ‘needs’ her egirl bounce?

Yes you are. That is what you need the crouching for.
Implying the people complaining about Genji triple jump are the same Mercy mains trying to keep super jump. It’s not their fault Genji lost triple jump man. Not even related.

Except you’re not. No part of Mercy’s hitbox goes through the floor. No part of her character model goes through the floor. Even the GA targeting system isn’t in the floor.
GA is center of the character model it targets, looking below it is still targeting above ground.
At no point is there any clipping involved. You have no clue what you’re talking about.
