šŸ›” "What's going on?" - Every Reinhardt Main Ever

Iā€™m not sure if they actually got rid of the lingering effect. Iā€™ll have to check tonight when I get home.

I could have sworn that I got knocked down by an ES after the cast finished. I was playing Baguette and I Shield Bashed a Rein right after he Shattered, in Mystery Heroes earlier this week.

Ah, ok I can see it now. Anymore, itā€™s honestly hard to say, at least from that angle. Ramps can block ES, and people can actually body block it as well now.

You can see it happening here

Itā€™s hard to keep track of anymore. Thereā€™s just so much.

Iā€™m pretty saddened the ult animation went Live. No communication, no mention of it in the patchnotes. At this point, the Devs just do NOT want to communicate to us at all, that is clear.

Brigitte is having shield flashing issues as well, which is a trait good Reinhardts use to move a little faster (while jumping) and to play mind games with the enemy.

It may just all be potentially related to the fact we severely need an optimization patch for this game.

At this point. Iā€™m even scared of them trying to fix Rein any furtherā€¦

Yeah, me too, honestly.

At this point in the game Reinhardt may as well not have an Ultimate.

After I get more play time in since the current patch I will explain in detail, but as of right now using Earthshatter will more then likely get your team killed.

Yeah youā€™re right. After some testing I also realised that they removed all kinds of animation cancelling for rein. It doesnā€™t stop there though: they also removed other heroesā€™ animation cancelling. You used to be able to throw mccree stun and instantly roll; they removed that as well now.

Well, I know it sounds potentially pessimistic, but if other heroes have been affected then I feel slightly better about it. I was mostly getting annoyed because it felt like Reinhardt was being singled out. Regardless, they need to state that they ā€œfixedā€ the ability to perform animation cancels.

Also, Iā€™m still very:

honestly trying to get an ult off vs a brig with 5s cd was more fun than rein currently is

I donā€™t want to be the ā€œglass half fullā€ guy, but this is more then we have heard since Hammondā€™s release.

The second one doesnā€™t make sense though.

Reinhardt is bugged ? Lets remove all animation cancels and make him even more horrible to play in this already dumb stun meta !

  1. what about genjiā€™s anim cancels ?

  2. what about doomfist anim cancels ?

  3. what about getting job done before adding dumb stuff to an unbalanced, unpatched game ?

Still nothing, huh? Why or earth are they treating him, specifically, so badly? What did we do Blizz? Did a Rein main steal your lunch money or something?
