You guys are absolutely insane for running experiments and figuring this out, lol. Blizz should hire you guys to do QA for the game. 😂

[@langamingva]

That sounds like it would be fun to do

[@charleshaines9715]

Why would they spend money when the community does it for free....

[@0ba802e6]

Why would they spend money when they don't even do QA because they're so lazy! :D

[@bdog0014]

More foreign workers in blizz.... Passssss

[@neondead2.0.15]

So this Why Rein was so fun this event. This bug is perfect.

[@MutatedAmerican]

Widow Ult + Sombra's hack/ult = Tank's REALLY BE EATING GOOD! (now I watch these changes even more)

[@kbtvstudios9528]

@@MutatedAmericanKinda love playing “support” Sombra in this, just to let our tank actually have fun

[@batatasabia]

So I have a theory! Widow's ult creates a new object on top of the player, this object: 1 - Can take damage, all damage it takes is transfered to the connected player 2 - Does not allow sticky projectiles to stick to it 3 - Is a separated entity from the player it connects to Because of that aoe attacks are hitting both the player and this new entity it creates, and this object transfers that damage making it double. It makes me question 2 things? 1 - Why doesn't it work just like the headshot hurtbox in the head? Instead of changing where the enemy can be critted they just make a new object that is placed on top of it for some reason?? That seems like more work. 2 - HOW DID THEY NOT FIND THIS????? rein's swing does this and if you actualy know how widows ult works it would make sense to test it, as progamming a failsafe so that an enemy couldn't be hit twice by aoe would be needed. This is absulutely hilarious, I wonder if a character like junk of phara would have their damage multiplied too? Does D.va's ult hit twice????

[@randomdeliveryguy]

1 - Why doesn't it work just like the headshot hurtbox in the head? Instead of changing where the enemy can be critted they just make a new object that is placed on top of it for some reason?? That seems like more work. Because they didn't want to put a a crit hurtbox in an entire arm, or torso. They wanted a specific spot on each character with an specific size. 2 - HOW DID THEY NOT FIND THIS????? rein's swing does this and if you actualy know how widows ult works it would make sense to test it, as progamming a failsafe so that an enemy couldn't be hit twice by aoe would be needed. Blizzard.

[@nr21_7ndrd52]

NGL i though it was because of enemy rein shield/window. Like it somehow registered as Los of explosion went through it.

[@playerr101]

thank god dva aint in mirrorwatch

[@ratboygirl]

@@nr21_7ndrd52 i thought the same tbh

[@ProtsmanPanther]

Was just thinking this as I was watching too

[@kaykaleli]

I'm so glad KZbin suggested this to me! You guys are great!

[@langamingva]

Thanks my man, appreciate it

[@drippinghere]

that's an awesome find, definitely gonna play more widow before they patch it lol

[@langamingva]

Incoming Widow Meta? 😂

[@kliveran]

I find funny that blizzard could just make the torso hitbox be a weak spot but instead they screw doing this, the joke writes itself

[@SliceOfRandom]

🤯 **logs in to game to abuse this**

[@spectralspooky]

It's cause of the way the weak point works. Normally when you shoot the weak spot the weak spot deals damage to the target but "blocks" the main body from being damaged. Aoe attacks hit both the weak spot and the main body but don't crit

[@red_infinitystone]

9:16 OH SO THATS HOW A BASTION ONESHOT ME!

[@phillipfrost2699]

Just woke up, wonder how mirrorwatch is going ....... Mother of God, start the PC!

[@lastnamefirstname8655]

great job with the investigative work!

[@veenoxxy]

i literally knew what happened when the clip played for the first time lol

[@CocoWash.]

Marmol

[@ihyouka]

good shit sherlock

[@ratboygirl]

congrats

[@juztkei]

Your intelligence is unmatched you're amazing!!!

[@hyphon1377]

Everyone bow down before his presence for he, is him🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐

[@matthewbrears2129]

So the widow ult “crit” is actually a secondary hitbox that’s assigned to the hero. So rather than doing critical damage, it does a body shot twice?

[@cakeyeater7392]

That, or it's bugged only for AOE. AOE can't crit, but hits both hitboxes, whereas hitscan crits but can't hit both hit boxes

[@pink_wixard]

the mirror watch widow ult allows everyone on her team to basically crit just like her, so with the initial damage of the soul explosion already being high enough at base to one shot a full health tracer, it's that base damage plus the ability to crit and because it's an aoe, it doesn't bug out like how Echo and Bash abilities bug out.

[@skarloeythomas5172]

It’s not crit. They tested it. It hits twice.

[@maxb8695]

Enjoyed this random video

[@user-fe9vm1et9o]

First appearance of random crit in OW2, I can see where this is going.

[@nickspencerfishingrodd2383]

this is both interesting and helpful👍

[@Stolace.]

Some bug with reins new shield allows enemy projectiles to go through and increase damage

[@dahoom_10_99]

tbh the video was so fun and I really love it that you need more then just 130 subscribe so I'm the 131

[@langamingva]

Thanks man, appreciate it

[@Altreux]

I like turtles

[@teknyon]

Would be interesting if mirror watch characters were permanent cast additions

[@Ferncin]

Me when mirror watch mode potg (it’s always a mercy)

[@shiion6711]

Thought this is a known thing... After I melt a tank with tracer guns

[@cephmind74]

would be better it the cameraman will show damage numbers

[@ricardocastillo1436]

I loved your vid :D

[@happystalker.]

so widow ult is actually good

[@jeraymymorteau1854]

I understand immediatly what happened for the potg "WEAK SPOT ACTIVE" it was so obvious why they get nuked

[@zzac7433]

This explains why we role on widow

[@they_call_me_devvv]

Anyone know how they tested this?

[@yuyangluo9773]

How did u use the even mode in custom game?

[@Kriscosmic]

Imagine a widow ult with a dva bomb

[@fruicyjuit6243]

i havent finished the vid but my quess as of right now and the whole time is that it gets damage boost through rein shield even if its enemy shield

[@ashegaming3530]

Jesus no wonder rein absolutely whollops whenever widow ults

[@michanowak9506]

lol isn't it obvious that if enemies have 2 crit points, the explosion will affect them twice as much?

[@mariavivian4703]

Is it because it went through the rein shield without being stopped?? I'm just taking a guess halfway through the video.

[@mariavivian4703]

I was wrong...

[@Fujiwaratofudeliveryman]

I loved this video

[@cristianesilva1030]

How are you guys playing that mode whitout being on a match?????

[@langamingva]

You can create a lobby in the Custom Games tab and then add workshop codes or tweak the settings on how you want to play

[@tylera1778]

Did mercy get reworked or smth? I dont play the game anymore but I keep seeing these new abilities 😭😭 idk what happened

[@langamingva]

It's from the new event called Mirrorwatch where they changed some of the character's abilities. Only some heroes can be played in the event though

[@peetchepeetchuu7376]

I think mercy soul bomb is too op since it can one shot tracer 😂 but its the most fun part of her kit 😂😂😂

[@Star_Rattler]

I hate to be so epicly smart but I could tell it was Widow's ult that somehow made a difference in the POG clip. You're good at doing experiments though, you're thorough, and that's good!

[@Luigi777888]

Shoulda tried doomfist elbow slam.

[@langamingva]

Damn, we forgot about that one 😅

[@metallikalm4336]

Widow is OP even when she is on the light side

[@DiLoMusic]

Wow you really tested all of those things to come to the same conclusion as I did after the first 5 seconds. It's pretty obvious what the bug is... widow's ult creates an extra "head" on an enemies body.... when they went to make sure no players could damage those spots they forgot to turn off aoe damage from objects. Ana's grenade is probably considered a projectile coming from her not a whole separate object like a tracer bomb... -.-

[@scrappi6008]

how tf do you have mirrorwatch abilities in custom games

[@langamingva]

You can load the mirrorwatch preset in a custom game. For the damage numbers, you can copy paste the coding of the workshop code in the workshop editor

[@drowsydragon-]

We need marblr in here to figure out exactly why this happens 😭😭😭😭

[@ysuri]

I just want to know how the hell you managed to have mirrorwatch in workshop

[@langamingva]

Used the mirrorwatch preset in the setting and then copy pasted the coding of an existing workshop code in the workshop editor to show damage numbers

[@zoomet9061]

Na rein just buffed that mercy with that window shield

[@Supboi]

Whoa! Great work! I hope you guys report this to Marblr only because he always makes videos like this! He knows a lot so if it comes down to it y’all can ask for his help!

[@langamingva]

That's a good idea

[@BeyyLuvsYou]

nah blizzard has gone down hill 300%

[@KuroiShiAnimu]

Why didn't you just recreate the circumstance to begin with? 4 people behind a rein shield with ally widow ult and soul in the middle. You can just keep removing parts until you find out what caused it instead of taking this long or does the workshop tool somehow not allow for that

[@langamingva]

With the workshop tool we were using, we can't spawn an ally bot and have them use abilities so we would still need a third person who we don't have at the time of testing this

[@bIowi]

Wait whats the code for the workshop? I wanna try some myself

[@langamingva]

This is the workshop code we used GDYN7

[@bIowi]

@@langamingva awsome, maybe update the description to include the workshop code so people can have more theories why to such thing happens

[@langamingva]

@@bIowi Will do that

[@luringash5994]

I have a theory: What if you do more damage if you blow up your teammates' souls? In the video, they only did it with the enemy soul, not their teammate. Also, in the Play of the Game, Mercy blows up her allies' soul.

[@Monnlin00]

They do it at 2:30 and there is no extra damage

[@cannoneermike]

AAA developers

[@zivi3862]

Ok wanna hear something funny? Widows ult is even more bugged on console if she uses her ult the whole lobby just loses their aim assist 😂 nobody has aim assist as long the ult is active lol. I don’t know what blizzard did with that ult

[@user-on3ii5pt9t]

Are the bugs found because the enemy is roadhog?

[@jahagkagau6061]

Nah, mirror widow ult

[@langamingva]

I don't think so. Someone else tested it but with doom and it did the same thing

[@stargateheaven23]

mirror watch is broken if a team mate hacks bastion he shoots at supersonic speed.

[@Insanity554]

Could I have the code to the workshop game mode? 🙏

[@langamingva]

This is the workshop code GDYN7

[@knyt0]

Pretty sure ana nade only does 15 dmg in this patch, so 30 is double

[@Raksoforback]

It does 30 dmg.

[@ariane8559]

Is this ow3?

[@dem_soul]

Here’s another theory to test. Doom got discorded while dying to zen. Maybe debuff stays on the soul after dying and interacts in a weird manner with widow ult?

[@brandonwashington604]

That’s actually stupid, it’s nice to to have theories though

[@lawrence9713]

As a Tracer player, this mode was pure garbage. And in general, E ability 200dmg? What are they smoking

[@minh9625]

well "weak spot" only deal crit so it's a crit blow up. simple

[@minh9625]

oh yea and it's exactly 1.5 dmg of normal blow up so it's not a bug it's suppose to be like that cause it's how the widow ult suppose to be.(i found out this in the first day of that arcade mode and report but blizzard tell me that how widow ult suppose to work - or is that true? or they just don't want to tell us that it's a bug?)

[@Raksoforback]

@@minh9625 It does critical damage, not a fixed 1.5x - AOE like Mercy's explosion does "standard" crit with 2x. Rein in the video lost 306 armor, which has 30% damage reduction so 440 damage taken.

[@MrM30w]

cool video, do you want to do some 1v1s

[@langamingva]

I think I know I'm gonna lose 😅

[@PseudoGuido]

Game is so broken lol

[@ThiccA55Legs]

I think this is a good buff for widow since wall hack is useless

[@scandal3897]
