It did need the nerf. And it did get headshots while under flinch. But as I have already said. If this is going to be purely word vs word with nothing to back up either. I stick with myself as I know me and my experiences. You may do as you wish. But I as I have seen myself miss because of flinch and even gotten a shot that I should've missed because flinch brought me in the right aim. Flinch is real. Conjectured example from manyyyy similar experiences of my own: Two scenarios. Aiming at the same spot off to the right and above someone's head. One scenario I miss because I wasn't aiming at the head. The other scenario I land the shot because the way I was moving and my muzzle was reacting under flinch. I made the shot that would've been a miss if I wasn't under fire. If flinch is as fake as you say it used to be for nlb. Then I would be missing shots that I get because I was under flinch.

Still feel like you're missing my point. The shots you missed were simply because regardless of the visual flinch or not, your aim was off. The shots you hit that looked like they should've missed were BECAUSE there was no actual flinch to the gun and where you were aimed the split second you first was towards their head/body respectively.

Here. Have a link. The second kill. The scope was most definitely pointed at his chest. It should've been a body shot. But then I came under fire. The muzzle experienced real flinch. And I got a headshot instead.

Ok, I'll counter your link with a link of my brother's this weekend, yours is sketchy btw, you could easily have dragged up knowing how far your aim was before shooting and got the kill, it happened way too fast to tell if you pulled up with your aim at the time of pressing the trigger to shoot. So not really a perfect example, even if I get why you'd think it was.
