Currently Deathslinger's Harpoon has a chance to disconnect from the survivor.
This started with Kaneki's release. On the dot.

Notable patterns:

It happens selectively.
- What I mean by that is: It's a rare bug that doesn't affect every match
  - But when you load into a server, it happens multiple times a match
  - It usually, but not exclusively, happens on the same survivor.
It's not a ping issue
- After this bug happens, me, and multiple members of the Deathslinger community. Check our ping immediately, just to see that it's stable and not high. <40ms
Hackers can exploit.
- This has only happened a few times.
- I went against a non-subtle hacker and they were able to apply something to themselves where it happened on EVERY shot. Lobby and survivors had normal ping.
- I have no data on this instance. It was a long time ago
