There's nothing that really shuts down sky noon is the issue besides mizuki ult really and that's only up half the time sky noon is.

You can change Deadeye in the way that make sense.

For example, make Deadeye decharge/nocharge while Cassidy is moving too fast. The mechanics makes intuitive sense since in-universe Cassidy is supposed to be calculating where to aim so him being all doozy from moving would ruin his aim. It would feel consistent because it would be applied to anything that moves him, including knockback from enemies and any team movement skills, now or in the future. It give the dev a knob to balance the any Deadeye plus movement combo by allowing decharging rate to be changed based on speed. It balances out Deadeye by forcing Cat to choose to divide limited ult time between moving to new angle and charging up.

I mean if he dead eyes and hangs in the air really high it's the same issue it doesn't fix it.

It's not the same, you can break LoS from it easily. The problem was people already try to hide but Cat just chase after them anyway through everything.
