Venator Bug With Gutshot

[Brimmstone]

If there's enough particle effects on the screen, Venator using his gutshot will cause both the player and anyone nearby to have a 1 second instance of the game freezing. Could also be the problem of being in a lobby for too long. Either way, something to look at.

Was having this problem in a recent match. (id:60570068) When gunshot pushed an enemy into a wall the entire game would freeze for approx half a second. It did seem to start after approx the 30 min mark, after that all hits froze the game for a half second.

So it sounds like an issue with the game in extended periods over particle effects.

Even there's this thread about it.

Thread 'Venator Gutshot (2nd ability) Causing Game Freezes When Landed Past 15-20mins Gametime'

Feb 16, 2026

Hello, this didn't happen when he first came out, but recently whenever I try to play a melee venator build and use his gutshot past 15-20mins it is causing my entire game to freeze for a second.

I have watched other streamers play him as well and while their freezes aren't as drastic (due to better computers), you can still very easily tell that whenever they hit someone into the wall with gutshot it causes major performance drops for a second.

I was told to post by Lightbringer these two images from my console, these logs appear every time the stutters happen...
