The target of this change is the Ultimate meter. Before the latest patch, using an Ultimate would cause the meter to drain based on its duration. This was so players who died right after using their Ultimate wouldn’t feel like they completely wasted it. Ever interrupt a Genji Ultimate, just to have him come back with his meter full, ready to hack you to pieces?...

Although plenty of games use computer-controlled units and even bits of scenery to take players down, this doesn’t always happen during multiplayer-focused games. However, professional Overwatch players were recently thwarted by the game-controlled cars on the Oasis map, after the cars helped one team get a kill during a recent professional match.
