Is anyone else going insane with the tether bug?
Rant but valid, it's been three patches of this tether bug. First season was 5% of all tether usage where it would start lagging your tether target behind and above you, rapidly shaking them and then dropping them automatically. It's been 3 solid patches, and it only got worse. 15% of all my tethers have been bugged out, removing both teammates and catnap'd targets. I'm level 100 cat main, and I assure you; whenever I get this bug on an ult target, they get away. Another one would be if this bug happens on a rollout over a death barrier, my teammate drops and shoots straight down before I can do anything about it!
I play a lot, like 2-5 hours a day. This bug happens every day. I can't get away from it, not in stadium, not in quick play, not in competitive. The lifeline bug is driving me up the walls, when I get it, I immediately call it out to the match chat. "Tether bug three seasons" and everyone's like "huh?", "what bug?", or my favorite, "you deserve it".
If this bug effected anyone else, it would be patched out already! Examples being rein's shatter bug where if you were on stairs, the ult would be blocked. Guess how fast they fixed it? A week. This bug would be as if mercy's GA would fail 5% of the time, as if nano would cancel itself, as if mauga cage breaks if it's on uneven terrain.
I'm in gm-T500 games, you real can't have a single mistake on any of these moments, yet the game punishes me for playing cat in the first place. I'm going insane dealing with this bug, I'm crying and screaming because the bug they added with 5 other characters is being left alone where YES, it will effect the win rate! JPC could be up a whole .5% WR because this bug is so damaging to my plays!

145 days, blizzard. It's been 20 weeks and 5 days. It's been 3 WHOLE PATCHES! They acknowledged the bug a patch and a half ago, yet there's been no changes!
