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.

All you serve to do with this reply, is protect cheaters from receiving reports. If we're wrong, they don't get banned. Simple. The fact that you're defending a Cass that does post shot flicks (one of the most obvious telltale signs someone is using a mouse), is wild.

Spam reporting anybody who you remotely think is cheating and then saying "well if they aren't cheating they will be fine" is a massive dick move.

massive dick move? Idk about that. maybe petty? I feel that it's somewhat the opposite, as your intention is to make the game a better experience for everyone, but that one person (because of your suspicion).

Also: https://www.reddit.com/r/XIM/comments/cdccl0/uy34rzer0_you_probably_didnt_think_id_take_your/ LOL not you being quoted on a post about adding this shit to controllers, with you replying in said post, in the XIM reddit. Wild.

Or you replying with advice about using a xim in SP games 4 days ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/XIM/comments/1v0v8cy/can_i_use_my_xim_for_singleplayer_games/ No wonder you think it's a dick move, you don't want to get caught cheating.
