Yeah I know what they mean; but there is no real way around it. I mean they could give the 'gitgud' seal of approval and go with the no gracious hitbox. I went to check out the difference in the hitbox since I haven't look since the original nerf. There is zero spacing to the left and right, and a little bit of a half short crosshair above. Regardless, that in itself holds very little substance in the grand scheme of things; it just seems the more on complaint is the idea of heading around a corner into an arrow, the only thing to change that is lower/faster projectile speed, make an arrow brighter, or make him a hitscan. It won't really change him from sending shots down range; so long as hes a projectile.
His kit is a difficult one to even contemplate without changing core values ie sonic/scatter/wall climb. Unless they do something crazy like giving him a flat value on his arrow and making it where the travel distance/speed is the effect of a charge but that sounds awful; you'd get machine gun zo in the front line.
Hanzo in truth, is really easy to deal with but its neglected that hes any different from any other hero that is 'counterable' Even at my elo, I watch streamers and people struggle on trying to figure out what to do against me but can't. Widow, you can avoid sightlines, but hanzo is in the fights.. so how do you avoid that? You aggress. The longer hanzo sits comfortably throwing shots, the more he is going to excel; good or bad. It's why this meta has been troublesome for even me, its so chaotic with 76 flippin around high ground, dva flanking or flying up and down, winstons going around, and your usual genji pick. I have to utilize a malposition to even be remotely useful as a hanzo, so many arrows shot next to a rein shield only to have a support walk into it.
But in all truth, I only defend because people cry random, and though I don't play at lower elo aside from QP where the autist roam free.. hearing the cries of random always sadden me to the days of me deagling in 1.6. People crying randy though it has been consistent 1 deags for the last 18 deaths, makanosense. I won't deny that I do infact get random arrow kills, more than any other champion but its also something that one cannot rely on.
And if you really can't win a duel against a hazno. protip; bind mousewheel up or down to crouch and send it spinning. Did it in the arcade last night with some friends, much lul. On hanamura mystery, I did that on defense against a widow who was cracking shots at me through the window as tracer singing walk like an egyptian. She shot about 16 shots, only hit me once. On snowbrawl, though I didn't win, I manage to salvage a 4v1 snowball fight where they all charged me, and walled me in one of the stairwells with a mixture of shift crouchspam jump; all while screaming at the top of my lungs.
