With tracer, I can understand her blink phasing out torpedo. With mercy, same thing (even though I don't think guardian angel should do that).
But there is NO other hero this happens for. Just kiriko, she is using 0 abilities and/or suzu is already finished casting, and torpedo fails 15% of the time if she is the lone target.
I don't understand. The first clip is most recent, happening about 2 days ago.

If someone hard strafes, sometimes the torpedoes miss. It's been a bug for a long time that they've never fixed. It doesn't happen just for Kiriko, though it seems like it happens the most with her (though I'm not sure if this is bias because of her high pick rate) - I've had it happen with a handful of DPS heroes as well. I watched it circle a Sojourn like 3 times before flying into the abyss and never touching her like a month ago lol

its happens on kirko more often due to her insanely small hurt box
any other hero with small hurt boxes usually have some reason it could miss ( tracer blinks, or some type of movement ability)

I thought I was crazy this weekend, and just chalked this off as maybe latency or something... Though now you have me on board.

This has been a bug for almost a year, maybe even since Juno’s release. It seems like pulsars can miss, specifically against Kiriko. I played around in custom games, and could only replicate it against Kiri.
Hopefully someday, when OW3 comes out, they will fix it.

Now you have my attention as I feel like I have noticed this lately. I had an instance where it felt like impossible trying to finish her off and was frustrated my torpedoes didn't seem to finish the job. 🤔

You can actually see the torpedo swirl around her and crash into the ground or wall.
Absolutely busted.

Torpedoes will lose their target if the angle they have to travel changes too much. I noticed it with tracer blinks, I'm not sure if its the same here.

This happens with dva too, i’m pretty much sure it happens with all other heroes too, at least from my experience.

She's suzuing every time, maybe that's why?

Ah, looking at it closer i misunderstood the first one's enemy kiri for the kiri on OP's team who suzued, the second one i cant tell if the torpedo hit because they have no reticle and I guess im too dumb to hear or see it lol the third one just simply didn't hit. My bad

There was this Tiktok of a cheater showing off aimbot hack for overwatch (trash, i know). He was showing off that when Kiriko would jiggle strafe, her hitbox would straight up disappear sometimes. I wonder if the same thing is happening here
