'''Crowd Control (CC)''' refers to [[Status Effects|effects]] that alter an opponent's capability to function, including their movement, ability use, weapon firing, and many others. Some CC effects have reduced duration when applied shortly after other CC effects; see [[#Diminishing Returns|Diminishing Returns]]. | |||

The effects of time stopped abilities can still function. For example, if {{HeroIcon|Dynamo}} is time stopped during his {{AbilityIcon|Singularity}} channel, it still pulls and stuns enemies.

Mechanics and effects that reduce the duration or intensity of crowd control, either partially or completely. | |||
===Diminishing Returns=== | |||
Only some CCs are subject to this reduction: [[#Stun|Stun]], [[#Sleep|Sleep]], [[#Immobilize|Immobilize]], Chain (tether), and [[#Silence|Silence]], the same set of debuffs that triggers {{ItemIcon|Reactive Barrier}}. Applying one of these to an enemy affected by another of them within the last 9 seconds reduces its duration. The reduction starts at 15% and scales to 35% with the number of recent CCs. The maintained list of sources is at [[Reactive Barrier#Barrier Triggers|Reactive Barrier's Triggers list]]. | |||
Abilities that apply multiple CCs as part of one action count as one CC (e.g. {{HeroIcon|Abrams}}'s {{AbilityIcon|Shoulder Charge}} grab + stun, {{HeroIcon|Lash}}'s {{AbilityIcon|Death Slam}} grab + stun). | |||
