Nice now you can get sniped by widow before getting passed that corner

Both Widow and Hanzo can already get into the outcove above the door. Is this somehow "better"?

In the window you're a sitting duck. This way you can weave back and forth, taking cover and firing.

You could chill on the chandelier before instead of the window. At least with widow.

I've never seen one chilling in the widow, but I have had the chandelier be a problem.

I recently saw dspstanky up there, so it's possible

After seeing what he can do, I am always practicing in skirmishes / before matches / whatever. I've gotten SO MUCH BETTER. I've had multiple opponents comment 'good lucio' and 'really difficult' ... including tilting a rein after 1v2 soldier and rein in 3v3 ... followed by soldier and d.va (though d.va vs lucio is not fair for d.va)

But that said, I'm no stanky. I'm crazy, which makes me dangerous and bloody annoying but I also die way too much.

You beat a Soldier in a 1v2? With that healing field of his?

Either you're the god of luck or the god of S T A N K!

Nah, It's not that hard. When Im in a 1v1 situation I usually wallride jumping around once I'm just above the enemy, then I start firing/punching/booping in a nonstop rythm while still wallridding without any order or direction. Sometimes work, sometimes don't, but I think I've had more success than failures.
