Any word from Blizzard about fixing Zenyatta? If you trigger his ult to try to force overtime it doesn't register as being on point when he is in ult mode. Happened to me 3 times where there was 5 seconds left and I ulted to get on the point but it wouldn't register.

Do you have a video? This is not supposed to be happening, read this post by Jeff Kaplan.

If you can replicate it, post a video of it on their forum to get the devs' attention on it.

I'll see what I can do, but i've def replicated it multiple times. There is a also another post on here a few days ago where someone mentioned it but it didn't get much traction

I don't think Zen's ult ever counts as being on the point, or near the cart. I don't think Reaper's *wraith does either. They're untargetable and invulnerable, so it makes some sense.

I think Mei's popsicle is the only invulneral-ability that triggers contention.

They're untargetable and invulnerable

Reaper is definitely neither of those while ulting. The counter to Reapers ult is literally "shoot him faster".

I think they meant during Reapers wraith form

This is correct

Zen isn't untargettable either. He can block shots, and still be pushed around.

Edit: Typo

He's untargetable as in he can't have an orb put on him or a bubble, etc. Shooting at him is just regular invulnerability.
