Monitoring 2 It continues to put up with problem after problem, with the latest issue The ice damage dealer left Mei completely unplayable due to a “critical problem” in her Ice Wall ability. Well, Blizzard might also want to investigate the heroic archer’s newest support character, Kiriko, since it appears she can prevent damage from headshots simply [checks notes] staring at the sky.
Kiriko is a skilled kunai ninja healer leaked At the beginning of September. Previously locked behind him Monitoring 2Blizzard battle pass since then She chooses to give kunoichi for free After some vocal criticism of the developer’s initial decision. Although she’s a pretty squishy hero, with only 200 health, she can deal some serious damage and has a perfectly adequate combo for buffing her teammates. In other words, she’s not a passive healer like Baptiste or Mercy, for example, but you probably don’t want her charging the enemy front like Brigitte or Zenyatta either. However, that may change given an exploit discovered by Twitch Streamer Flats.
partner Overwatch Florida maim, Flats, of the University of Florida, tweeted on Nov. 15, masking Keriko’s head injury with her arm by looking up into the sun. Flats shoots opposing Kiriko several times with Widowmaker, only for the bullet to graze the ninja’s seemingly indestructible arm, allowing her to heal instantly. Eventually, Flatts knocked out Keriko with a single shot to the head, but only after he positioned himself at a perfectly right angle, saying “You have to get behind ‘Kiriko’ to shoot the back of her head.” Who knew staring at the sky could save you from death?
What seems to be happening here is that when you look up, Kiriko’s arm gets in the way of the dome’s dome, affecting the damage you take from headshots. In response to Flatt’s tweet, One Twitter user noted that Mercy was able to do the same, but only upon casting her ultimate resurrection ability, which sees her raise her arm in the air to revive a dead classmate.
