It's a hard lined reflex that can be hard to unlearn. They know what it means, that Cait's gonna shoot them, but for most that "time between being targeted and being shot" is too often seen as their window of opportunity to duck behind cover, like a quick time event. Sadly it's a false instinct.

There's a theory or something on that. How two objects in motion are less likely to find each other than one stationary and one moving (think there was a book about star-crossed lovers or something). same concept i guess. If one moves, it's more likely you'll get in the way of the ult, rather than having both move and the ult hits the target. Once had a teammate flash in front of me to save me....right as i shadowed (zed) to the position they were previously at. RIP Zed. It's just natural instinct for some to move behind, and some to try to move in front. That being said, I prefer to do the moving because some teammates will just let you die.

WellI usually duck for cover behind someone so it's ok anyway.

What I really hate though is when that same person waits for you to do so only to flash out of the way. Cmon man. Cmon

i just do it instinctively because i've had too many tanks not make an effort to block it at all lol
