The thing is, he has such a huge arrow hitbox, on top of that ashe and mcree have HUGE heads. So dueling him sucks…
brb in game rn
Haha I feel the exact same way

I don’t know if there’s hard counters, but Ana can be strong againt Hanzo with her hitscan rifle and sleep dart which is dead easy to land when he’s wallclimbing. Highly mobile characters (Tracer, Genjoo, DF) too, but Pharah as well since many players seem to have hard time aiming upward.
Also a bigger, badder Hanzo of your own could keep him busy.
Unless those videos are current and are tested against the smallest possible hitscan projectile, they do little to mark the size of Hanzo’s projectile hitboxes and simply show off how vastly lenient most heroes’ hitboxes are.
His projectiles are actually pretty small and hard to use, and Ashe and McCree get to be hitscan, that’s waaaaay better.

McCree has a humongous hitbox overall.

His projectile size has not been changed. They are still huge… 
I just wish he got a proper counter. Sustain has armor/healing or just… escape abilities in general. What do one shots have? Nothing.
I’m tired of getting rekt by smurfs hanzos and playing hide n seek all game. It’s just miserable. I hate playing the game and wish I could just leave when a hanzo is in my game. Ugh.
They’ve always been tiny. I think I’ve only hit a moving target twice, both times body shots where I Lunged directly into them.
Hitscan is much better, especially Ashe.
Snipers have counters, non-sniper hitscan heroes have faster firerates and more range than they used to, allowing them to duel snipers.
Or you can try some of the heroes that flat-out can’t get one-shot, like Torb.
Yes. It has. It was decreased when his projectile speed was first increased. Note that no projectile size increase came with its recent decrease in speed.
That was ages ago. Try now against a dummy bot in workshop. They are significantly bigger than hitscans hitboxes.
They are freaking huge. There’s like a solid distance that the arrow take up. I’ve seen clips of the arrows freaking homing.
I just want to repeat this again.
Just lost another 2 games to hanzo. Got completely rolled.
I try to kill him but he lunges away and gets a million pockets.
Your Reaper-main anecdotes do not a broken hero make.
I have bad news for you, nothing counters him but team work.
Winston, Hammond, widow, a better hanzo, if he goes if I’m his own but doesn’t have very good aim you could toss some sym turrets at him and see what happens.
D.va, Hammond, Winston, Genji, Widowmaker, Tracer.

If you consistently lose to hanso at its current state you’re just a worse player, it has nothing to do with your picks.
D.va, enough said. 
No one makes Hanzo tryhards switch. Not even Moira.
Is crouch spamming a bad idea vs Hanzo?
I would say hitscan snipers have a good chance against him, as well as Genji.
Dive counters hanzo esp tracer genji winston if you are a good winston that saves leap after engage to chase when he dashes away. dva ball not so much due to storm arrow and lack of barrier, honestly hanzo is one of the few sniper that can handle dive better unlike widow soldier ashe that said he is still susceptible to dive.
A really good widow is supposed to counter hanzo with range but im a bad average widow and im yet to find hanzos head hitbox.
