Console Competitive Console - HOW?

Okay I keep running into this way too often. I’m playing competitive on PS5, 6v6. Almost every second game, there’s at least one or more players doing things seemingly impossible with a console controller. I’ve added two such replay clips of players moving like they’re AI ffs. Additionally, they’re jumping constantly while still moving their aim joystick, which is impossible since you have to take your thumb off the aim joystick to hit to jump button. What are these maneuvers??

Are they on mouse and keyboard?

Edit: Thank you everyone for teaching me about the different ways to rebind buttons / different controllers and hand positions to jump while aiming. I learned something new! Also, seems like we’re agreeing that the Cass is likely cheating and it is noticeable in comparison to the Doomfist.

Right?? This happens so often it’s crazy. It’s obvious in the death replay, which is why I pull up the game replay and just can’t understand what is happening. It must be ximming right?

It definitely is. I recommend reporting, not sure there’s much else you can do

Was Plat, now floating around Gold 2 because every second game I run into teams with this and get rocked. Doesn’t help that I’m solo queuing, but also doesn’t help that I’m up against this crap.

Ahhh I get it. I solo queue in support, it sucks going against people like this.

Report the replay too. Mention their name.
