New Hanzo glitch in Overwatch leaves Mei no safe place to hide

An Overwatch player has found a new exploit that allows Hanzo to eliminate Mei when she goes into her Cryo-Freeze and should be invulnerable.Hanzo had his Scatter Arrow replaced with the new “Storm Arrow” ability in his recent rework where he also go increased mobility, but the good old Sonic Arrow didn’t change at all. Mei’s Cryo-Freeze surrounds her with a block of ice that prevents any damage while healing her, but it seems like Hanzo’s Sonic Arrow can break through it.[caption id=""]"See through the Dragon's eye"[/caption]Sonic Arrow: can’t stop won’t stop An Overwatch player known as Kyran uploaded a clip from a free-for-all deathmatch game where they shot a Sonic Arrow right at where Mei’s head would be in her Cryo-Freeze.

It doesn’t work against an Orisa or Reinhardt shield, once those break the arrows disappear, so it’s really interesting that it happens in this situation. Just how useful it could be is up for debate, a good Hanzo could definitely use this to make an enemy Mei’s day a lot tougher, if they keep an eye on their Sonic Arrows.More Overwatch glitches Overwatch players have been putting up with a much more annoying bug where Torbjorn’s Turret can shoot through walls on Volskaya on Dorado. The glitch basically allows Torbjorn, on Volskaya at least, to completely cover almost half of the first point choke point with his turret while keeping it from taking any damage.
