	** Important note: This is specific to the heroes' line of sight, ~~not the enemy player's line of sight.~~
	*** A straight line drawn between the center of both heroes needs to be free of vision blockers in order to reveal the heroes on the minimap.
	**** Leaning around a corner exposes only the hero's torso, and so will not reveal the player on the minimap in the case that there are ~~enemy heroes around that corner~~.
	**** This means that while leaning around a corner, the hero will ~~not reveal any enemies that~~ are ~~around that corner.~~
	* Being very near an enemy hero that is facing away from the player.
	** Even if the hero does not ~~appear~~ on ~~the enemy player's~~ screen, ~~the hero will be revealed on the minimap by being too close to them (assuming~~ no vision blockers).

			Invisibility (from {{ItemIcon\|Veil Walker}}, {{ItemIcon\|Shadow Weave}}, or {{HeroIcon\|Haze}}'s {{AbilityIcon\|Smoke Bomb}}) prevents revealing under the following rules:
			* Breaking invisibility requires: using abilities, shooting, or being within proximity of an enemy hero with line of sight (walls block this).
			* '''Exception:''' Haze's Smoke Bomb allows using items and abilities without breaking invisibility or revealing her on the minimap.
			* Buildings and objectives do not break invisibility or reveal the player.
			* Graves' ghouls will chase invisible players but will not explode on them. <!-- likely a bug -->

			== Hero Interactions ==
			* {{HeroIcon\|Calico}} cannot be revealed on the minimap while using {{AbilityIcon\|Ava}}, even if shot by troopers, guardians, or walkers.
			* {{HeroIcon\|Mirage}}'s {{AbilityIcon\|Djinn's Mark}} will reveal invisible enemies on the minimap when activated.

			== Item Interactions ==
			* {{ItemIcon\|Stalker}} provides wall-hack vision of the target but does not reveal them on the minimap for the team.
