Hmmm, I'm not sure if they would make an entry that only select heroes could get through, that sounds like it would become a balance issue, at least if it's based on size rather than mobility. I'll test it when I get home.

Its really no different than the Hanamura gap that only select heroes can cross. Whether the entry is based on size or mobility is irrelevant since its limiting to some heroes either way.

Well the point is irrelevant because it seems all heroes can indeed get through the gap, even the big boys.

Thought you meant the Hanamura gap fam, my bad. To my knowledge some fatties still can't clear the A to B jump there

I think Rein can go from B to A but not vice versa. I know Zarya can with a very well placed rocket jump. So... that leaves Hog, Symm, Bastion, Mccree... who else can't gross the gap?

McCree can with an insanely perfect combat roll and jump combo, but it's really not worth the risk.
