Let's all take a moment to thank YouTuber WhyBeAre for figuring out how to control Overwatch's musical support hero Lúcio with the faux-turntables from Activision's DJ Hero series.

In the video above, WhyBeAre demonstrates his ingenious feat of keybinding. One turntable handles Lúcio's forward/backward movement and the other controls his turning. 

It's very old-school Doom-style gaming, with no jump or vertical aim... but this is Lúcio. Shooting well doesn't really matter so much. Just point, pull the trigger and accept any points you reserve as a blessing from the universe.
