Glitches abound in games, and while they can be troublesome during play, they also make being in the game a little bit more amusing. Two Overwatch players discovered a glitch in the game's Nepal map and found that it's possible to explore the map's next level with some crafty maneuvering and two Mercys.

YouTube user hulkman503 posted about finding the glitch and showed how he and a friend were able to make their way to Nepal's next level without going through the usual means.

There are three levels in Nepal but no loading screen is shown as the game transitions between every level because it turns out all three exist on the same map. As hulkman503 explained, players can't just drop anywhere from the highest point in the Nepal map because of the presence of "death planes." Hit these and your character simply dies, and there's no experiencing the glitch.

Not that there's any actual benefit to getting to the next Nepal level through it.

It's just fun, according to the two Overwatch players, and potentially a means of annoying your team. Players in the next level can switch heroes, so anyone with a Symmetra can teleport their team to their location. However, once you're there, the only way out is by dying.

Blizzard should be on to the glitch by now so there's sure to be a fix for it soon, but in the meantime, there's no harm in exploring the Nepal map through unusual methods. Again, hulkman503 and his friend got to Nepal's next level by working together as two Mercys. It's unclear if other heroes will be able to pull off the feat but definitely teamwork is needed.

Speaking of teamwork, albeit the trolling kind, Overwatch players have also discovered that having three Anas in a team can get one member of the opposing team booted out. The three Anas simply have to use the character's Sleep Dart ability against a single opponent, causing the enemy to slip into a sleep state for about a minute. Because the targeted character was inactive for so long, they will then be booted out of the match.

It's necessary to have three Anas pull off the trick because of the ability's cooldown period. Additionally, it can also only be carried out in Quick Play mode because hero stacking has been abolished in Overwatch's Competitive mode.

Depending on how many instances the trick is used and how troublesome it is, Blizzard may also release a patch to prevent its use or at least restrict it.
