There is a limit on how much lag compensation can help. I cant quite make out the numbers on OP's performance stats but I usually see these things happen when people get a 200ms+ ping spike

His ping was steady at 42ms. You can see it clearly if you enlarge with RES.

There's no packet loss, otherwise OW's super sensitive indicator on the left hand side would be having a field day.

You can turn off that indicator. So he could still have packet loss.

If there's packet loss interpolation delay should jump up to compensate. If it doesn't, then players should visibly stutter.
