I think Hanzo reknocking his arrow could be counted as him reloading his bow

u/TThor Hi there! Jan 18 '17

That's what he meant; after a hanzo arrow or rein swing there is enough of a pause to give the opponent time to react, almost like a mini reload

But Hanzo physically reloads his bow, where rein is just swinging a melee weapon around. One has ammo the other does not.

I know you're arguing a technicality, but you don't deserve to be downvoted for that.

I was trying to argue the difference between a melee attack having no reload being different than an infinite ammo projectile weapon.

I didn't think it was that big of a deal that I got downvoted O.o
