I'm seeing a lot of people do this in the nerd MMR bracket. Does this actually do anything? Seems like same exact speed, ie only useful if you are actually hitting someone with the melee, or is it actually faster?
also on bastion when on turret mode try instead of reloading, hit shift twice to form back to normal mode and then back to turret mode. I think thats quicker than reloading your minigun
also idk if its true but I saw it on the ROGUE may highlights that their mercy after he res'd he hit his melee key and instantly was able to move again
I saw a couple of videos that say since the beta ended the only reload cancel that saves you time is sprint cancel with Soldier 76 and it is like 100ms time difference.
They say you can still time abilities with reloads to maximise your DPS, like helix rocket cancel or firestrike cancel, but they don't actually make you reload or attack faster.
I've not test any of it :D
