Ye I'll be at work so can't log in but I can sneak away to watch on my phone at least

ruby ridge
#

YES

idle finch
#

alright

#

that was peak

vivid merlin
#

That short was fantastic! I really hope that the PVE is able to live up to the hype that the short created

#

Also, did anyones player feel laggy when they were watching or was it just me?

idle finch
#

mine ran perfect

#

But i watched it a lil late

#

probably lagged bc alot of people started it at the same time ?

#

Idk

sharp orbit
#

Oh god I need that stealth suit for Sojourn

#

it's so cool

idle finch
#

probably in the battle pass

#

if they make it ofc

sharp orbit
#

I'm sure it'll be in the game

#

it had premium written all over it

supple sandal
#

I haven't gotten the short yet

#

do I have to restart the game?

sharp orbit
#

check the banners on the bottom right of the main menu

#

it's one of them

#

if you don't see it then yeah restart

supple sandal
#

well lets hope we get more cinematic stories soon

sharp orbit
#

yeah

#

this has got me hyped for the Invasion missions

twilit patrol
#

When the cinematic release in YT ?

peak escarp
#

probably later today

supple sandal
#

say what you want about ow and their bad decisions but these cinematics are all truly masterpieces

#

a flippin netflix series about ow would be so awesome

twilit patrol
rare trail
#

i think murphy got the croissant

twilit patrol
#

Yeah me too

karmic turret
#

W cinematic

rare trail
#

that stealth skin looks fire i hope we see it in game

karmic turret
#

Finally sojourn lore

rare trail
#

:D

twilit patrol
#

But dogs can eat a croissant ?

karmic turret
#

It's just pastry

mellow stratus

fresh rock
#

That was a good watch! It was really refreshing watching another cinematic after so long :]

twilit patrol
twilit patrol
#

Plus the PvE

jovial tusk
#

Mate Overwatch has the best animation team and criminally underutilizes them

karmic turret
#

i don't think they're underutilized, just the cinematics take quite some time to make for the quality they are

peak escarp
#

they also don't just release them as soon as they're done

#

they plan them into the narrative

stuck stump
#

Are there many "plot holes" in the lore? I assume not but figured I'd ask

woven jewel
#

I would say there's just a lot of stuff that has yet to be explained

#

I'm hoping a lot of it is gonna be answered soon

past copper
#

Caught the Sojourn short and it was dope as hell

#

Also loved they used one of the coming NS bosses

worthy rose
#

where do you find it?

peak escarp
#

guess I was wrong about Reinhardt

worthy rose
#

ok

peak escarp
#

...what is that art

#

pretty sure that's NSFW

past copper
#

I have no idea bout the art actually

worthy rose
#

how do you watch it?

peak escarp
#

well remove it please

woven jewel
#

It's on the bottom right panels or when we select Sojourn under Heroes

past copper
#

It should be on th3 bottom right of your screen

peak escarp
#

here's some official art

past copper
#

Either way, cool to see a coming boss unit. Didn’t seem that tough, but then again Sojourn is… 💪

worthy rose
#

im on console

woven jewel
#

Go to Heroes

past copper
# worthy rose im on console

Yes. That’s what we pointed out. See the thing that points out double XP. Scroll until you’re on the animated short

woven jewel
#

Under Sojourn

#

On the right

#

That's another way

worthy rose
#

i got it

past copper
#

Seems they might’ve taken away that boss’s weapon in favor of multiple guns, but either way, cool unit

#

To be fair, probably wouldn’t make much sense for Null Sector to use melee weapons

woven jewel
#

Ponch

keen summit
#

so the "its all connected" line all this time was just an reference to an unreleased short??

peak escarp
#

yep

#

and a couple other voice lines and sprays

golden oak
#

Anyone has a screenshot of the photos sojourn had on her shelf

#

I wanna take a closer look

#

I wonder if that outfit she was in underground will become a skin in game

past copper
#

There’s no screenshots for the most part yet

twilit patrol
turbid cradle
past copper
#

Cool to see another Null Sector boss in a cinematic. The first having been the Titan from Zero Hour

turbid cradle
#

I love how they make them look like Egyptian divinity

peak escarp
#

looks like a priest

past copper
#

Not to mention, Null Sector has a LOT more ships then the game made it look

#

I counted 5 - 6 alone

turbid cradle
#

Yeah, when all of them pop like out of nowhere

#

And taking one down in the rio missions is hard enough

past copper
#

Well, I think it’s obvi they weren’t detected on radar before they appeared. Wouldn’t be too shocking if they can jam enemy tech

#

That boss might not have been tough for Viv either, but to be fair, she’s tougher then most people

turbid cradle
#

I like how all the stuff of sojourn pop like that when that officer ask her if she answers Winston's recall

past copper
#

Note to self, NEVER arm wrestle Sojourn

golden oak
#

ok made the screenshot myself

turbid cradle
golden oak
past copper
#

I mean, she saved one omnic from getting creamed by a train so no

turbid cradle
turbid cradle
past copper
#

I don’t think she’s racist towards omnics anymore and it might be that the boss unit is the one in charge of capturing and/or controlling civilian omnics

#

Or possibly they were convincing them to join Null Sector

turbid cradle
#

I was joking u know, of course she's not

turbid cradle
past copper
#

Hard to say what happened in that situation, tho it probably wouldn’t be out of the realm of possibility that Ram sends representatives in his place to convince omincs who’ve been mistreated by humans to join his cause

turbid cradle
#

It's like his hacking them, like anubis did, and this time there's no aurora

past copper
#

After all, Kace is an example of omnics with a grudge against humans and won’t let it go

turbid cradle
#

By the way, it's me or ramattra is still under the control of a villain god IA, because he got that red dot on his head and not the blue one like zen or mondatta and all other omnic

past copper
#

I don’t think lights matter since omnics can change their appearance as they see fit

#

Maximilian for example

turbid cradle
#

And the place where aurora "died" is that the iris ? With the same yellow than the zen ult

#

Yeah but is a villain still, like ram

#

And we see in the genesis series than during the awakening, some decided to lay down there weapon's, those with the blue dots and others keep shooting, those with the red dot

past copper
#

Plus, not omnics have lights to indicate being good or bad. Like these criminals in Paris

turbid cradle
#

Ouh I haven't seen those picture before ? There's more comics ? All I have is one with all the little stories (mcree on a train for exemple)

past copper
#

This is from the Paris map

turbid cradle
#

Even it's in my country, I hate that map so much I haven't see them

golden oak
#

Who else thinks sojourn’s suit with the helmet will be in the pve bundle as a skin

turbid cradle
golden oak
#

I think it will be in the bundle because they already said it will have a sojourn skin

golden oak
#

And it’s literally related with the invasion

turbid cradle
#

It's not the mccree and kiriko one ? Those on the posters that leaked?

#

Not sure that's true btw

golden oak
#

We talking about pve bundle

turbid cradle
#

Yeah the one with the 3 missions, 20lvl prenium battle pass, 2000 coins and the mcree and kiriko skins

coral timber
#

oh i want sojourns vigilante skin ingame now

peak escarp
#

it's a great look

coral timber
#

she has barely any good skins rn

peak escarp
#

I like Barista

coral timber
#

so itd be nice if she got that and the world cup one

past copper
#

Reminds me of Celty from Durarara. Like the design

coral timber
#

lws been getting mad attention lately

#

2 shop skins and 1 bp skin after one season of releasing

woven jewel
#

What about Grandma Soj skin

idle finch
#

The detective one in the shop rn is her best one imo

keen summit
#

Ah no

#

Slight differencrs like shoulder pad etc

#

Its different enough, cant post it cuz lost reg

past copper
#

Civilian Sojourn

#

Vigilante Sojourn

rare trail
#

vigilante soj looks so cool

merry token
#

You should see her on her bike

celest pulsar
#

Looking for twitch mod pay can be available depending on how good u r

proven fox
#

So is John Cena now canon in the ow2 universe?

golden oak
golden oak
past copper
lavish vessel
#

That’s why he had tracers pistols and brigs whip

peak escarp
#

yeah it's just marketing

#

it's not canon

lavish vessel
#

Ah thought so ReapaHap

proven fox
#

😔

#

He could have been a hard counter to tactical visor

woven jewel
#

Bro frr

#

Also, did y'all see the new new new trailer

slow forge
#

Bro imagine if we see a scene where zenyatta and rammatra re-unite

#

But tbh I think they should make it to where the only thing that can truly stop rammatra Is zenyatta

rare trail
#

zen doesnt really have any in lore power tho

past copper
#

Love the detail they put into the NPC omnics fr

lime pulsar
#

Rammatra good zen wrong

lime pulsar
#

Like it ain't gonna be that hard either just cap him

rare trail
#

?

#

what?

lime pulsar
golden oak
#

I think zen left shambali and went on a pilgrimage

golden oak
rare trail
bleak shell
lime pulsar
golden oak
rare trail
#

also even if he was an activist there still wouldnt be a reason to

lime pulsar
#

Damn he broke

golden oak
#

Mondatta did some activism I guess and he got assassinated

rare trail
#

killing mondotta was risky and almost got widow caught

lime pulsar
#

Yea just do it from farer

#

Lmao.

rare trail
#

she has no reason to kill zen

golden oak
#

Besides, Ramattra ordered the assassination and he has no issues with Zenyatta

sudden crystal
#

RAMATTRA IS SO BASED

lime pulsar
#

Yes

rare trail
#

i dont think we know who ordered it

sudden crystal
#

This is not war this is liberation 🔥🔥🔥

#

Based at

golden oak
rare trail
#

no it isnt

lime pulsar
#

I don't think ram has ordered any killing of omnics

fossil linden
#

john cena tbh

sudden crystal
#

Ram is just a product of human imperialism

#

You get what you deserve

lime pulsar
#

Like honestly zen not doing anything omnics rn tbh

golden oak
#

Mondatta criticised null sector, next thing he’s getting assassinated by talon which we know is working with null sector

lime pulsar
#

Like it's not like you can rebuild sentient omnice anyway

#

Since one dead sentinet omnics is one dead sentinet omnics forever

rare trail
sudden crystal
#

and ram is anti-statist so he's even better

#

i would so fight for him

lime pulsar
rare trail
#

no?

lime pulsar
#

Or hired someone to do it

golden oak
#

And we see that Ram is even capable of forcing omnics into his army

sudden crystal
#

Mondatta was a liberal

lime pulsar
#

Like I get zen message but it doesn't considering idk how rampant omnics murder/ suppression is

sudden crystal
#

Mondatta was status quo

lime pulsar
#

Because it'd have to be pretty bad for rammatra to just go the way he is you don't just do that

carmine dawn
#

mmmm i liked the cinematic

sudden crystal
#

ram realizes every people including robots should have the national self determination for their own people

#

🤷‍♂️

lime pulsar
#

But that doesn't =/ murdering him is good

rare trail
sudden crystal
lime pulsar
#

Generic monk stance of that there should be peace among everyone and peaceful protest believing that's the only thing needed for change.

rare trail
#

why do you think that

lime pulsar
#

Not saying actual monks believe that

rare trail
#

what has zenyatta said or done that makes you think he believes that

lime pulsar
rare trail
#

zenyatta isnt ghandi

lime pulsar
#

Not saying ghandi was like that either

#

Yes I know

#

Idk zenyatta actual full stance because it's not in game

rare trail
sudden crystal
#

zen is spineless lib

rare trail
#
sudden crystal
#

Ram is based anti-statist

#

ram is mao

rare trail
#

mao?

lime pulsar
rare trail
vapid tusk
sudden crystal
#

ram is a maoist

rare trail
lime pulsar
sudden crystal
#

null nector is a maoist liberation org

rare trail
#

uh

#

ok

vapid tusk
#

the omnics vs humans is just a parallel to the irl society

sudden crystal
#

yeah def

#

that's why null sector represents a maoist liberation group

#

it fits it all def

#

ram is mao

lime pulsar
#

I'd say it has more inspiration from U.S. civil rights movement

peak escarp
#

Maoism is a form of communism developed by Mao Tse Tung. It is a doctrine to capture State power through a combination of armed insurgency, mass mobilization and strategic alliances.

#

...you know what

#

I agree

sudden crystal
#

Which is based

#

I would totally join

vapid tusk
#

isn't communism supposed to be where everyone has equal rights to everything

sudden crystal
#

no

peak escarp
#

Ramattra wants equal rights for omnics

vapid tusk
#

i fell asleep during government class so

peak escarp
#

he's just using very aggressive methods to achieve it

sudden crystal
#

stateless moneyless classless society

rare trail
#

how did maximilean get so rich?

sudden crystal
#

Null Sector is the vanguard party

peak escarp
rare trail
#

he owns casinos right?

peak escarp
#

yes

lime pulsar
vapid tusk
#

high noon isn't canonical, right

rare trail
#

i think its kinda shown in reunion

peak escarp
#

we see the equivalent in Reunion

#

he doesn't glow, but everything else is there

vapid tusk
#

including voiceline?

peak escarp
#

the clock in the diner hits noon

#

so the voice line is implied

carmine dawn
#

so implying he shoots better n faster at noon?

peak escarp
#

no, he just shoots better and faster when he's focusing

golden oak
#

Imagine if he had a power to change the time to noon at any point

vapid tusk
#

imagine if Cassidy was like that one dude from Seven Deadly Sins

vapid tusk
#

Escanor i think

sudden crystal
#

Fred hampton

vapid tusk
#

getting stronger and stronger until the peak which is exactly noon
that'd be an awesome reference / collab

golden oak
#

Why’s John cena promoting pve
So random

vapid tusk
#

cuz u no c pve

golden oak
#

Huh

bleak shell
peak escarp
#

because celebrity endorsements are a method of advertising

golden oak
#

I get that but I’d rather have someone that’s actually related with overwatch
Like a voice actor or something

peak escarp
#

it's not for you

#

it's for people who don't play Overwatch

lime pulsar
vapid tusk
#

?

#

gonna ignore that message cuz im confused

rare trail
#

i think theyre referring to the thing with high noon where if you look away then back it boosts the damage?

lime pulsar
vapid tusk
#

that has nothing to do with canon though

lime pulsar
#

Fixed that but didn't fix that you can still miss with skulls lol.

golden oak
rare trail
#

ig john cena is pretty popular

lime pulsar
#

Yea

rare trail
#

i hope we get to see this in game

lime pulsar
#

Are all omnics automatically asexual

rare trail
#

as a skin or smth

#

we dont know

vapid tusk
#

probably picked a celeb who had a clue what overwatch was lol

golden oak
#

Will be in pve mission for sure

vapid tusk
#

why is brig making that face lmao

lime pulsar
#

Asexual different from aromantic.

vapid tusk
#

what did rein do this time

rare trail
zinc quiver
#

That soujourn cinematic was cinema

lime pulsar
#

Yea I'm just saying

zinc quiver
#

Too bad the game itself aint that good

vapid tusk
lime pulsar
vapid tusk
#

the closest one i've seen is bob and ashe and that's just a master-servant bond (non-respectively)

rare trail
#

winston reinhardt sojourn genji mercy brig lucio looks like the options?

golden oak
#

I think there are even omnics in relationships with humans (alive cinematic)

rare trail
#

tracer torb too

rare trail
#

bastion too

lime pulsar
#

They should make fantasy overwatch canon

rare trail
#

questwatch?

#

the dnd campaign?

lime pulsar
#

Yes

golden oak
vapid tusk
#

how would they work that in with the current lore line

merry token
#

Shows some sort of attraction to omnics ig

lime pulsar
vapid tusk
#

and voicelines arent canonical lol

merry token
#

Reread my statement ☠️

#

“Would probably think”

rare trail
#

it doesnt really make sense for dva to be using the kitten version of cute in that context

lavish vessel
golden oak
vapid tusk
#

why is everyone replying to me
i'm overwhelmed by yellow

merry token
#

There’s technically an omnic human couple in a lifeweaver spray

vapid tusk
lime pulsar
rare trail
#

i assume across the 3 missions we'll play as winston rein bastion genji sojourn torbjorn tracer brig lucio mercy

vapid tusk
#

ok this is getting too confusing

#

bread

#

🍞

rare trail
lime pulsar
rare trail
#

uh

#

ok?

lime pulsar
#

Because idk maybe u want questwatch widow

#

Idk if they wanna do DND with widow

rare trail
#

yeah widow almost killed tracer so i doubt they would let her in lol

#

i wonder who could be invited to play dnd with

lime pulsar
#

Yea that's why I suggested the other idea

#

None of the outlaws would be allowed

rare trail
#

tracer is an outlaw

#

being in overwatch is breaking the law

#

same with genji

lime pulsar
#

I mewn like I guess evil

rare trail
#

kiriko is an outlaw too

lime pulsar
#

Outlaw=/ evil obviously

vapid tusk
#

imagine if they accidentally made winston angry

rare trail
#

i think the main reason its not canon is because of kiri

#

it wouldnt make much sense for her to be playing dnd with them

#

and would probably mess witht the short story coming up with her and hanzo

lime pulsar
rare trail
#

ik

#

whats the point of having it be canon but in another universe? like isnt that just the same as it being non canon?

lime pulsar
#

Yes

#

Kindac

golden oak
#

@rare trail omnic+human couple

vapid tusk
#

if there's suddenly a different universe that pops up, i feel like people wouldn't really enjoy that

lime pulsar
#

Don't need to crossover

vapid tusk
golden oak
#

I think I tagged the wrong person

lime pulsar
golden oak
rare trail
#

yea

lime pulsar
#

Yea

#

Wonder how it is to take omnic to yr parent

vapid tusk
#

regular omincs:
=}

rare trail
#

i would assume there would be some like tension given most parents would have lived through the crisis

vapid tusk

zen:

rare trail

pretty much

merry token
vapid tusk
#

i mean i know the difference between zen and ram obviously

merry token
#

They’re with the same person

#

Wait am I trolling rn

vapid tusk
#

i think im just dumb and you're confusing

merry token
#

Are those different omnics ☠️☠️

vapid tusk
#

🙂

merry token
#

Why are they with the same person

vapid tusk
#

dont ask me lol i didn't watch the cin

merry token
#

Unless this is some weird angle shit

vapid tusk
#

probably the same omnic

fiery echo
vapid tusk
#

as the description was "omnic + couple"

peak escarp
#

those are the same omnic and the same human

merry token
#

The longer head from the angle was messing me up in the second pic

vapid tusk
#

also by "relationships with omnics" i was talking about colloquial-wise so idk why those pics were the response

golden oak
#

They’re like robots with a soul

fiery echo
lime pulsar
vapid tusk
#

they probably inherited water resistance or something

golden oak
fiery echo

Idk, I more for a medical explanation xD sorry

not just being the third wheel

There isn't a fucking medical document for omnic sentence

Jesus

fiery echo

but the omnic from the two pics are the same person

lime pulsar
#

There isn't one for omnic sentence besides magic

merry token
#

The two are in a romantic relationship

#

You were shown omnic human romance

vapid tusk
#

i think i gotta watch the cinematic for everything to make sense

lime pulsar
vapid tusk

wait are they like pics from different times

vapid tusk
lime pulsar
#

Lmao

vapid tusk

it all makes sense now

Set your sights on the second animated short in our four-part series: Alive! Then play FREE during the Open Beta May 5-9: http://blizz.ly/1U5gi77

"Alive" weaves a tale of Widowmaker, the peerless Talon assassin who stalks her prey with deadly efficiency. In this episode, we spend a fateful night in London’s King’s Row—where you’ll discover ho...

▶ Play video
fiery echo
# golden oak Well I explained it already

Yes, thank you for it! I thought in "sentient" more like the freedom they have now instead of the emotion. Like, I thought they have emotion before the sentient or the Iris

rare trail
#

same couple though just one is from the beginning one is from the end

vapid tusk
#

wait... that was from Widow's cin?

#

how come i never noticed lol

fiery echo
golden oak
#

Mina Liao created the first sentient omnic called Aurora, and it was also the first omnic to be recognised as a person
Aurora helped stopping the crisis by giving omnics her sentience (and freeing them from Anubis)

vapid tusk
#

who was anubis

golden oak
#

God AI

rare trail
#

it caused the omnics crisis

golden oak
#

Watch genesis short stories

#

For more insight

fiery echo
#

I watched them already, but for some reason I thought omnic where like Aurora already but without freedom of expression or something like that

golden oak
#

They were servants before that

#

No free will

#

Aurora made them like humans but in robot bodies

lime pulsar
#

Yea but they can't reproduce so every dead omnic is -1 sentient omnic

vapid tusk
#

how does rein feel about bastion

lime pulsar
#

I think he likes him when his sheild isn't getting bursted down

golden oak
lime pulsar
#

I don't think there's gonna be one

golden oak
#

I’m curious if echo could do the iris thing since she was also built by Mina and she’s somewhat Auroras successor

peak escarp
#

Echo isn't sentient

#

so she couldn't give sentience to others

vapid tusk
#

Wait how is echo not sentient

peak escarp
#
hope that you . . . your generation, can help ease some of that.
ECHO: But I am not like an omnic, am I?
LIAO: If by that you mean sentient, then no. But by no means are you lesser than they are.```
#

from the lore bite short story about Echo

golden oak
#

She might know Mina’s secrets tho
Mina could’ve told her how Aurora was created so she can keep that information

peak escarp
#

Mina didn't even know how Aurora came to be sentient

#

it was a fluke

golden oak
#

An accident? So if they did the same steps it wouldn’t work?

peak escarp
#

correct

past copper
#

They tried to recreate it

#

But couldn’t

vapid tusk
#

What was the result of the second experiment?

golden oak
#

What is echo’s purpose

solemn nebula
#

wait echo isn’t sentient? she seems like she is but idk

golden oak
#

Why they call echo a promise

silver tide
#

Would Rammatra might view Bastion as a traitor?

rare trail
#

what?

#

no?

#

why?

silver tide
#

If bastion joins the fight against null sector?

vapid tusk
#

Wait I accidentally replied lol

rare trail
vapid tusk
#

Disregard the @

rare trail
#

ram might not like bastion

peak escarp
#

Bastion will be part of the Gothenburg mission

golden oak
#

Bastion was made by Anubis, not null sector

#

Right?

rare trail
#

yea

golden oak
#

So I wouldn’t say he would see bastion as a traitor since bastion was never in null sector

#

An enemy, yes

rare trail
#

i think a traitor

#

omnic against null sector

golden oak
#

He’s not an omnic tho
He’s sentient of course but not omnic

rare trail
#

????

#

bastion is an omnic

golden oak
#

Omnics are the humanoid looking models

#

Bastion is E54

#

Made by Anubis

rare trail
#

ram was made by anubis

#

"The Ravager omnic series"

peak escarp
#

Bastion was made by humans

#

he's one of the early models from the crisis, before Anubis started designing his own omnics

golden oak
#

Yeah but ravagers are omnics

rare trail
past copper
#

Brig next skin

#

Thought it was a training suit. Might be her new engineer outfit

wary sable
#

Is widowmaker called widowmaker because shes a widow

#

Guys i might be onto something

#

Also whats up with the numbani golden rhino lore

#

Shits wild

rare trail
#

widowmaker is called widowmaker because of how deadly she is and also because she made herself a widow by killing gerard

wary sable
#

Genius

#

You know what the rhinos name is tho?

rare trail
#

widowmaker refers to just deadly stuff in general like widowmaker heart attacks

#

i do not know anything about the numbani rhino unfortunately

wary sable
#

Yeah i dont know its name either

peak escarp
#

it doesn't have a name

wary sable
#

Id like to think i would be felipe

peak escarp
#

it's just a statue

wary sable
#

Thats a nice rhino name

#

How about we just call it Felipe

viral sage
rare trail
#

wary sable
#

So how long can he live

viral sage
#

why does widow have gyat

wary sable
#

Sorry spider i didnt mean to make fun of you

rare trail
viral sage
#

spider i say we cook this guy

wary sable
#

Was the rhino on horizon?

rare trail
#

based on hammond its possible winston could live to be well over 100 but thats entirely speculative

wary sable
rare trail
#

winston will probably live longer than a regular gorilla though

hushed ivy
#

Isn’t that about 40 years?

wary sable
#

how the fuck is winston winning against anyone in this universe?

viral sage
wary sable
#

One gunshot and bros dead

#

Not to mention his shield only has like 500 hp

rare trail
wary sable
#

Hes a space gorilla

rare trail
#

also he has armor

wary sable
#

Yeah plot armor

#

Id snipe that mf in the head all day

#

Easy throws dude

viral sage
#

bro in the cinematic idk what widow was on

#

coulda popped winston right there

#

and why did reapers shots explode

rare trail
#

im not sure what youre referring to

#

the museum cinematic?

viral sage
#

yes

rare trail
#

when do reapers shots explode?

viral sage
#

ill find exact time

#

2:50

rare trail
#

huh thats weird

#

maybe hes throwing grenades or something idk

viral sage
#

yeah

rare trail
#

the audio kinda sounds more like a grenade launcher than shotguns

#

maybe a scrapped idea for reaper

cloud harness
#

That cinematic was made back in like 2014, and one of reaper's conceptual abilities was a grenade launcher. It never made it into even the beta.

earnest lantern
#

I have an idea about the story thing how about they do a multiple endings thing were the choices or skill by you can lead to a different ending

zinc quiver
#

Maybe if they make talon characters playable they could do a sort of overwatch vs talon finale

#

And who you side with dictates how the story ends

No he isn’t - that’s a commercial

But multiple endings would be cool

Like ult ramattra or ability

earnest lantern
#

Ok so punching while charging

viral sage
#

Alright ima try to explain what i think

earnest lantern
viral sage
#

idk

#

do u think doomfist is strong without the gauntlet

#

cause in his cinematic he punched out of prison

#

but in game he does no damage

Mercy or Widow

viral sage
#

orisa is?

keen summit

yes

#

she stopped a bus just by standing somewhere without trying

#

the gameplay mecanics have cooldowns and stuff for gamaplay & balance, but in lore, things can be different

mellow stratus
placid vessel
#

Wasn’t Winston’s secondary fire shown in the Doomfist intro?

#

He charged it and it looked like a ranges shot

mellow stratus
#

Huh

#

Maybe

placid vessel
#

In the very beginning

#

Of the short

mellow stratus
#

''the very beginning''

#

Oh

#

Yes I see where you're going

placid vessel
#

Have they hid other abilities like that in other shorts

mellow stratus
#

In the Doomfist short, Winton shot doom with the secondary fire

placid vessel
#

That arrow that bounced in Dragons looked very interesting Clueless

idle finch
#

True i wonder why they havent added it clueless

glacial pivot
#

hey smart people that know overwatch lore, does anyone know Ramattra's opinion on cyborgs?

idle finch
#

I don’t think its known but id imagine its the same as humans since they started as humans

charred dune
#

reinhardt the hammer

golden oak
#

(As in they never met)

opaque tundra
#

He’s more so annoyed with Genji’s relationship to Zenyatta rather than his existence as a cyborg

fresh rock
#

You know what I think would've been interesting? If they had released Ramattra in Season 6 instead of Illari. That would make more sense imo.

golden oak
#

He says something like “I’m disgusted by this combination of human and machine”

opaque tundra
#

I’ve…never heard that one before???

golden oak
#

Probably because he has more than one specific voice line for killing him

#

There’s other one that goes “the end of my brother’s pet human”

fresh rock
#

Mega MEGA late but I got a close up of the invasion picture

#

It's more cleaner too

keen summit
#

I think the right one might actually be lw just took pedals away for promo

rare trail
#

i wonder what this is

keen summit
#

Cass with gun

rare trail
#

?

keen summit
#

Or u mean white lines

fresh rock
keen summit
#

The white lines are just from the building, the person is cass and that is hid gun

#

One to the right ciuld also be sombra maybe?

#

Pharah ana and cass are easy to recognize, the ither two not so much

golden oak
#

Left: LW probably
Right: Sombra/kiriko

fresh rock
#

Leaning towards Kiriko here

#

But it could be Sombra

keen summit
#

The left one has one arm bigger it seems like but its opposite from lws special arm

#

I hope atleast one is tank

fiery echo
#

I hope Pharah is the free one 😅😅

fresh rock
#

We can only hope

#

It could be

#

We don't have a full visual yet.

hushed ivy
#

Because they have the neon dreds that his OW2 skins have

#

And right is definitely Kiriko because of the ponytail

fresh rock
hushed ivy
#

However you spell that

fresh rock
#

Yes but his skates are apart of his pants

#

They're HUGE

#

That's why Lucio has puffy pants

#

And we've gotten 2 in a row

keen summit
fresh rock
#

I WANT it to be Lucio, I really do

keen summit
#

hair changes all the time

fresh rock
#

But I feel as if it isn't

hushed ivy
golden oak
#

Too tall to be Lucio imo

hushed ivy
#

Its also ^very^ slender

fresh rock
#

You know, in terms of skins, both Kiriko and LW have gotten a bunch

golden oak
#

And the silhouette doesn’t fit also

keen summit
hushed ivy
fresh rock
#

Queen has a good amount

fresh rock
hushed ivy
#

Didn’t she get the epic in S2?

fresh rock
#

Ramattra is lackluster when it comes to skins

hushed ivy
#

It was a store skin I think

fresh rock
#

I can't remember

hushed ivy
#

The goofy one

keen summit
hushed ivy
#

I forgot what it’s called

keen summit
fresh rock
#

Sojourn has the least amount of skins for every new character

fresh rock
hushed ivy
keen summit
#

yea

hushed ivy
fresh rock
keen summit
#

btw theres already a season 6 tab now

keen summit
#

i remember

hushed ivy
#

Was S2 Halloween

#

Or was that S3

keen summit
fresh rock
#

Halloween was S1

hushed ivy
#

Oh right

fresh rock
#

So S4 was our break :]

hushed ivy
#

So we got witch S1 S2 goth s3 mythic S5 rouge

keen summit
#

s1 she got halloween skin, s2 visual kei, s3 mythic s5 rogue yeah

fresh rock
#

So yes! S4 was our break

keen summit
#

jq also is stacked

hushed ivy
#

I still think it’s Her on the right though

#

The clothing (if you can call it that) fits Kiri more then Sombra

keen summit
#

jq has had a skin every season

fresh rock
#

What skin did she get S3-4?

hushed ivy
#

She had the bad skins in S1 S2 was the GOAT S3 was tux

keen summit
hushed ivy
#

Or was Tux S4

keen summit
#

s3 black metal, s4 tux, s5 glad

fresh rock
#

Oh my god

#

Queen and Kiriko are STACKED

#

LW is also getting a bunch

#

Ram and Sojourn have been lackluster though

keen summit
#

still a crime rama didnt get skin for fantasy when hes mage based

fresh rock
#

ESPECIALLY Sojourn

keen summit
#

rama also had 1 every season since tho

hushed ivy
#

The one in the cinematic

#

which is super hot

keen summit
hushed ivy
#

It’s probably that then

#

It fits perfectly

keen summit
#

sojourn only didnt have skin in s2

#

but just like rama the others were epics making em forgettable

hushed ivy
#

Ye

#

Or they’re just not so great legendary’s

keen summit
#

jq got most legendaries of all of them

#

kiriko just had basically 3 epics (i dont count tatsumaki as legendary)

hushed ivy
#

Sombra also just got a android like skin too

#

So I don’t think it’s her for that reason

keen summit
#

skins getting repeated dont really matter

#

atleast from what we know off

fresh rock
#

It's probably Kiriko, Blizz loves Kiri

keen summit
#

im just like

#

WHERES THE TANk

#

there has to be one skin of every role right

keen summit
fresh rock
#

I wonder when the trailer comes out.

#

Last season it was just a day before.

#

And let's just say that wasn't the best approach.

keen summit
#

theyve done that every single time like 1, maybe 2 days

fresh rock
#

That's no fun :[

#

I don't know why it's on a Thursday though

keen summit
#

it aint, but as there is hero content content creators will talk soon

#

cuz they have hands on the new hero

fresh rock
#

S4's trailer came out 5 days before it released.

keen summit
#

ah that was probs the exception

#

its almost never almost week before

#

ofcourse maybe it is! and then we probs get the stuff today and it would make sense for content creators aswell cuz theyd have had the time to edit

#

It would be cool

#

but honestly i doubt it

glacial zinc

Doesn’t make sense her eye is glowing

If they don’t digitize her voice and make her more violent I don’t think it would work

#

She looks terrifying

#

And WHY IS HER EYE GLOWING

woven jewel
#

Because eye patch

odd tartan
#

Because she is missing an eye, no? I think there just trying to illustrate with having one eye glow and the other not

the premium bundle has Sojourn, Cassidy and Kiriko

Tis a shame!

I love Cass and a gunslinger bot is just... delightful

I really hope they are the bosses in the Underworld mission, because that would be sick

Underworld mission? Not canon?

it's soft canon

it's a canon event (omnics being attacked in the London Underworld), but how the mission plays out is not canon

the ability overview thing is obviously fake

however we have gotten 2 legendary skins and her name leaked, so if people say "illari kit" with a whole lot of false info, it still gets taken down because it has her name. The name is already a confirmed leak so thats why they take down those posts. not cuz the kit is real

all we know for sure is two legendary skins and that her name is illari

So probably not til season 9 or 10

Which kinda tracks since S6 is Invasion, S7 will be Halloween + event themed, S8 will be Holiday + event themed etc

#

Speaking of that, anyone else wondering if October might have something special included given that’s when Overwatch 2 was released

It should! Since that's the anniversary

The Anniversary should have exclusive skins, dance emotes, and other goodies.

We should see it in the trailer

I didn’t want to call it Anniversary, but considering that we didn’t one this time around, I guess it might be
