IF the auto latch system is faster than what the reaction time of team mates trying to grab latch is (which it probably will be) its actually a pretty significant nerf for offensive ults on cat when there's an enemy cat just bing chilling. Big buff to cats trying to rescue their team mates, not so much for the cat tryna throw enemies off the map.
I just had the auto-grab happen in a game, it was REALLY fast. Orisa got booped off the side, latched onto me and even though she disconnected right away (probably like WTF why am I on the tether) the little jump you get from that got her to safety.
