Itās not just Kiriko. Itās a skill input delay with a lot of heroes.
You can find this bug on:
- Moira
- Reaper
- Mei
- Bap
- Rein
- Orisa
Probably other heroes too. Doubtful theyāll do anything about it though.

Sounds like a lag of some kind, not a bugā¦
Remove her from the game for a few weeks

Itās a bug. It happens on other heroes as well, usually during peak hours. This person isnāt the only individual having this problem as Iāve seen it happen a lot and it happens to me as well.

So are you telling me it is not a lag related issue, by saying it happens during peak hours, when servers are most laggy?
Do you see irony?

Pretty sure itās a combination of two things Lag and the āfavor the shooterā mechanic. Mei for instance has been wronged for years with this. You hit iceblock, some times even get into the block and then die.
Because the server decides that the shooter killed you first. Itās no different than when you run around a corner and die to a sniper who can no longer even see you, because they āhitā you while you were still in the open.

I thought you were implying it was a lag related issue for him. Iām just a layman here and I know next to nothing about code. It could be lag related, or it could be coding related due to the volume of people on the server. That said, there arenāt that many people playing, letās be honest. And while I said usually during peak hours, I didnāt say it always occurs during peak hours.
I think that would be the first when number of people on the server would cause a code related bugā¦
It could be, but server side lags also do happenā¦
Great example is D3 now. Blizzard cheaped out on servers for that game since player base was dwindling (and that was understandable on their part to do this), but now game is really laggy in peak hours because many players came back for this season (it has really good theme, and hype is really big due to D4 launching this year). So if you want to play D3 now, you should do it outside of āpeak hoursā. Sounds like same happens here. Especially that we are talking about console, and Blizzard is known for neglecting that player baseā¦
Oh they will, itās just something that will be patched in the background and no one will talk about it when itās actually fix. And everyone will act like the devs donāt do anything when ever set of patch notes has a dozen or so fixes.
Idk Iām not going to pretend that I know anything about code, not my field. Iām just spitballing. Regardless thereās another thread about it in the bug forum and thatās currently the only place it can be reported all things considered. But honestly, I doubt they even read the forum so right now weāre all just speculating as to the cause without anything thatāll actually be done.
I wouldnāt be surprised if they cheaped out on OW2 servers. It definitely seems like support for the game has dwindled since 2021. But thatās what happens when they have a mass exodus of employees I guess.
Also my experiences with this are on pc. I donāt play on console.
Edit:

People act like they donāt do anything because thereās never any acknowledgement of a lot of the issues so when something does get fixed itās generally assumed that it has been fixed by accident or that they just some how fixed it when they fixed something else.
Perhaps Iām jaded because Iāve been around the loop with this game since the third season of OW1 but the community used to be interacted with a lot on the forums. They used to indicate when they were fixing things or when things have been fixed. The devs havenāt even posted on the bug forum for 2 whole years. That isnāt a good look. So itās no small wonder that people just assume that things arenāt being looked at or that they arenāt fixing things.
What a breath of fresh air that would be.

Sure, that is why I explained this. I have some experience with troubleshooting stuff like that. Also I have few friends that are or were developers, so they told me a thing or two about it.
I am not authority also, donāt get me wrong. It might be, actually, a code related issueā¦ But I wouldnāt put my money on that.
Oh for sure. If player made sure it is not a lag on their part, then bug report section is the place to report that issue. Especially that player doing this does not need to have any knowledge in troubleshooting or developmentā¦ It is perfectly fine to just say āit looks like a bugā¦ It quacks like a bugā¦ It is a bugā.
Bottom line is, for sure, that if this is a problem on Blizzard side, they are the only ones that can fix it.
I had something similar with GA on PC, but I am sure it was a lag on my side of the connection.
But, again, server side lags do happen.
Iāve experienced the issue too. The suspicious thing about it is that this didnāt seem to be a problem until the most recent patchā¦ and itās now happening frequently. It may be partially due to lag, but my mind is leaning towards the possibility that this last patch may have messed something up.

Iām too tired to use the quote box or figure it out on my measly 5 hours of sleep. But responding to your second point, I definitely agree with you.
Honestly only time will tell. Have a nice afternoon, thank you for spitballing with me.

I know exactly what youāre talking about and it is so annoying! Also throwing your suzu and dying after then looking at the kill cam and itās like you never even used suzu.

This most def happens to me at times when I play her. Sheāll do the hand sign, Iāll hear the tp sound effect, but she doesnāt go anywhere. So then I have to do it a second time, if Iām not already dead. Or my teammateā¦
Can be pretty frustrating ngl

You should go on āBUG reportā forum.
Oh, yes, they definitely read those. Albeit, not like they read these eitherā¦
