Kiriko is proving to be an unstoppable exploitative menace in Overwatch 2, after not too long ago making a buggy interplay with Mei’s Ice Wall (and subsequently eradicating her from the sport). On high of this Mei exploit, there’s now a newly found bug in Overwatch 2 with Brigitte and her defend, which turns into unbreakable due to Kiriko’s final. To make clear, the bug permits Brigitte to place up her defend early after being destroyed, and worst of all, her defend might be invulnerable.
Initially found on the Not Muda YouTube channel, the bug happens whereas Brigitte’s defend is destroyed whereas underneath the consequences of Kiriko’s final. Kiriko’s final, Kitsune Rush, has a further impact that lowers the cooldowns of heroes whereas they’re in its space of impact. Due to this, Brigitte can put her defend again up earlier than the regen kicks in. Whereas her defend is put up on this state, it can’t be destroyed.
Mace to the face
Whereas the bug does sound completely terrifying, it, thankfully, doesn’t appear too game-breaking and exploitable. Whereas noteworthy gamers like Dafran have actually gotten shafted by this bug earlier than, there are limitations to the unbreakable defend of Brigitte whereas underneath this state as outlined within the video. For instance, Brigitte can’t defend bash whereas utilizing this invulnerable defend. The power will activate, however it is going to don’t have any impact and solely make a noise. Brigitte additionally should preserve her defend up indefinitely, or the defend will start to regen and she is going to lose her invulnerability.
To this point, Blizzard’s consideration appears to be positioned solely on Mei, as she was not too long ago faraway from the sport whereas the group searches for a repair. Hopefully, Brigitte doesn’t fall underneath the identical destiny and will get to remain in Overwatch 2. However I can’t lie, it might be amusing to see one other character eliminated because of an issue that principally lies with Kiriko. In the meantime, for a visible take a look at how the bug works, you may take a look at the unique video under.
