Ultimate Sometimes doesn't activate

During gameplay, when the Ultimate key is pressed, it will sometimes not activate, yet still drain charge and play the audio queue. I’ve had this problem with Hanzo specifically, though it may affect other characters as well.

During gameplay I was playing as Hanzo, and pressed the Ultimate key to activate Hanzo’s Ultimate. After the key was pressed however, the Ultimate failed to activate correctly. Opponents were standing in what would have been the Ultimate’s line of sight, The audio queue played, and the Ultimate meter’s charge was drained like usual, yet it failed to appear, and the opponents took no damage, leading me to believe it simply did not occur.
I have encountered this around three times now, and I am not entirely sure as to what the cause may be, but it is a big issue to randomly not be able to use the Ultimate.

Do you have a replay code? I’m not an expert but I’m curious how it manifests to other players, if it’s a visual bug or not.

The Replay code is “1SSFAK”. The Ultimate happens at around 8:00 if that helps.

Okay, I took a look at the replay and I can see what happened; the enemy tank “ate” your ultimate!

D.Va has an ability called Defense Matrix, and while it’s up she blocks any projectile that passes into it. She was close enough that the arrow that “starts” your Ultimate was eaten by her Defense Matrix. You can tell when that’s happened by looking at the Kill Feed in the top right corner, where it shows her Defense Matrix ability cancelling out your Dragonstrike.

Hopefully I’m not explaining anything you already know, but just in case I wanted to be thorough.
