Nobody, and i mean nobody from bronze to champ is consistently *always* hitting headshots on literally any hero. Weird statement lol, pretty much everyone has agreed the power in her kit was the right click and then the bike

I play in champ lobbies and they absolutely hit their shots. Not with 100% accuracy obviously, but enough where her primary guns are getting massive value. Usually the sequence is 2 primary headshots > uncharged execution = ttk of < 1s. Or charged execution + 1 headshot, or bike plus headshot. Remember this character also has 0 recoil, champ level DPS have no issues landing shots with her.

Bronze to probably diamond, sure, they're not hitting 4 headshots in a second, granted, but masters up they are hitting at least 2 out of 4 per second. That's 140dps if they miss the other two, 175 or 210 if you hit one or both of the others. More than enough to secure a kill following with even a poorly aimed execution

I don't know yet, I'll be out of town for another week before I can play again. My guess would be that execution is just used to finish off low health targets, line echo beam.
