They’re larger than Hanzo’s arrows and larger than Mei’s alternative fire.
Pretty close, but not quite.
Depends on range, at 90 meters per second, they can be pretty effective at ranges of 30 meters or longer. But as always, closer ranges means greater accuracy and threat… up to a certain point. CQC isn’t wise for Kiriko, but she can do it.
Smaller.

Her fire rate is one of the slowest, it’s the same fire rate as Lucio but she only shoots once instead of a 4 round burst, zens is much faster and does much more damage.

Pretty sure it’s one of the bigger non-explosive projectiles in the game. Really, the only projectile I have an issue with is Doom’s.
It’s almost the exact middle of projectile hitbox sizes.
What? Her projetile size is bigger than hanzo arrow, just aim at head level and spam, its pretty easy to use.
Speed and the diameter of the projectiles
Mercy : 0.5m - 50m/s
Hana Song : 0.5m - 50m/s
Kiriko : 0.36m - 90m/s
Zenyatta : 0.3m - 90m/s
Mei : 0.3m - 115m/s
Ana : 0.2m - 125m/s
Hanzo : 0.2m - 110m/s
Genji : 0.2m - 60m/s
Torb : 0.2m - 70m/s
They should be.
They do a lot of crit damage.
Politely I have to disagree
Her recovery is 0.5 seconds so 2 shots/s, same as Cassidy and everyone says his fire rate is fast because it is. For reference Ana is at 0.8 seconds, Illari at 1s, Baptiste at 1.7 shots/s (0.55s recovery) so like less than 2 bursts/s. Lucios weapon is nowhere near as consistent as Kiriko’s and his fire rate is actually half as slow, it’s much harder to land all 4 shots, let alone 4 headshots. He shoots 1.08 shots (4 rounds) a second. Lucios projectile speed is also 50m/s compared to Kiriko’s 90m/s so in reality his damage potential is much harder to unlock compared to Kirikos
Zens is extremely fast, like one of the quickest recovery times for a non automatic hero weapon and fair enough he is meant to be the dps support after all. Just take a look at the numbers next time so you aren’t just saying nonsense
Probably because her crits do insane dmg. Duh
I agree OP. Kiriko’s kunai should be doubled in size to like at least Mercy or Dva sized pistol rounds. But what I would actually want is for the speed of the kunai to be increased to something like Souljourn rifle levels of fast. I think 165m/s fast kunais would really start to make em very, very consistent. Just imagine some chump Spamzo finally getting a taste of his own medicine. I think this would be a fair balance to make up for all the Kiri abuse that some parts of the community has thrown at her.
her kunai are 80% bigger then a hanzo arrow lol (and they have the same travel speed as a zen orb, which is also smaller then her kunai)
kiri kunai are one of the biggest weapon projectiles in game, and it might actually be the biggest one that can crit thats not a sub weapon.
Watch anime. Hopefully someday we get a hero with giant shuriken
Consider me corrected, but I haven’t seen many complaints about Cassidy’s fire rate being quick, people mostly complain that they keep changing it.
80% bigger? Wow. Biggest projectiles in the game? Really scary. Except when you realize that the 80% bigger kunai is 0.08m over Hanzo’s log arrows, only 0.03m over Zen bowling balls and the kunai actually being like the 3rd (4th?) smallest projectile over all.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

As others have said, it’s often considered the easiest non-rapidfire projectile to use. However it’s also unreliable beyond certain ranges, regardless of skill level. Try using it more at 15m or less and it should serve you well.
mei, sojourn, genji, hanzo, ana, zenyatta, torbjorn, orisa are all smaller
Except only Genji, Hanzo and Zen are comparable here, as were supposed to be talking primary fire projectile sizes. Soul maybe too, strictly speaking I guess, but hers travel so fast that it’s like, does it matter? I know you’re a prolific Kiri abuser, but please don’t be intellectually dishonest. Imma just link to the source here, since nobody else and this way anybody can compare sizes here.

Just remove the space there at the beginning.
Okay thank you I’ll have a look. I think Mei and Ana’s are still comparable because i’m referring to their damage projectiles. Mei’s icicle is smaller and Ana’s projectile is smaller for enemies. Same with Torb. I’m not comparing beam sizes.
Upon reading that graph, those numbers further prove that she has one of the bigger projectiles primary fires in the game LMAO
…are you… complaining… about the hit box of one of the most broken “gun” on a support character… ok…
