    I am not sure if this is a bug or intended, but I got this achievement when I was no longer in deflect mode. What happened was I deflected Bastion's turret form and killed him and ALMOST killed a Soldier:76, but I had to launch one string of stars at the Soldier to kill him. So it seems like you may just have to do MOST of the damage with the reflection.

    At any rate, your best bet is to be in a situation such as this. Try to get an enemy between you and an enemy Bastion, and kill both of them during the deflection.

    Another popular though less likely option is deflecting Hanzo's Ult. Before the Dragons appear, he actually fires an arrow. However, a smart Hanzo will aim low. So the only way you'd do this is if you're in his face when he uses it. Still, it's possible.

    Another option I didn't think of would be deflecting Reaper's Ult. However, in most cases, Reapers seem to use it when they're going in alone. You also have to make sure you're at least still looking at Reaper so you don't get killed, so you'll probably kill him first unless there is also a weaker hero there.

    SaikredDeflecting roadhogs ultimate is also fairly useful, you can use the knockback to knock people off the map (he often uses it when HE is trying to get his achievement near the edge of the map)

    TranierxJust a note that the current PTR reduced Genji's deflect hitbox. The update will probably come with the end of Retribution.

    Chef Not ChiefI just started playing Genji, got both his achievements within 5 matches as playing him. Compared to other heroes I would say his achievements are slightly more skilled based, and less luck based. But he does have a very high skill cap. I can confirm you don't need to get either kill with his deflect. As long as you damage the enemy and get credit for the elimination. I deflected Hanzo's new storm arrow ability into him and a support. Then a Reinhardt came over and killed them both with a swing of his hammer, achievement popped. It seems most people have no control or patience with Hanzo's new ability, so this is the perfect opportunity to get this achievement done.

    You do NOT have to get 2 single kills using Genji's deflect. This achievement isn't that bad to get, you can get this achievement in a few ways. The way I was able to unlock it was on Oasis. There was a D.Va out of her mech shooting at me, while a Reaper was shooting at me too. I killed D.Va myself and got an assisted kill on Reaper, and the achievement popped. Hope this helps everyone trying to get this achievement! ;)
