I can’t believe Gabriel Reyes designed their superhero uniforms. I’ll never recover
(I’m sorry I looked at the leaks, Blizzard, forgive me I’m only human.) Everyone go look at the genuine article this was inspired by, with the original script!! Text has been updated to correctly quote the amazing exchange that inspired this whole thing!!
Like I’m an actual fucking artist and so are a million god damn other people on the planet and the person being recognize for their art by a game company is a fucking child? Nah. So much fuck that.
well if the criteria for recognition is being a fucking child i’d say you still have a chance
Reblogging for the cool character concept (a poison gas character with bleed damage would be cool) and for the savage af commentary
Okay so like. Story time. When playing overwatch I try to abide simple rules of courtesy during quickplay. If someone else grabs a character first, I choose something else and give THEM a shot. They called dibs.
I also expect everyone else to follow this etiquette. Most do! However, sometimes somebody won’t. Sometimes my prestiged ass will choose Hanzo- a character I have 43 hours of gameplay on, and some dinky little level 53 will wait a solid ten seconds and then- with the full knowledge that I chose Hanzo first- will choose Hanzo. I check their gameplay stats. 13 hours.
Fuck that. Fuck you. I have dibs, seniority, and more experienced gameplay with that particular character. I don’t need to change by the simple rules of this etiquette. So I stay Hanzo and glare at the other Hanzo on my team knowing full well that two Hanzos will likely cause us to fucking lose. I decide I will not be the dead meat. They will change. He will realize he’s doing nothing and change and allow me to flourish like the radnasty Hanzo I am.
Only. They don’t change. Only. We are both front lining Hanzos and we both refuse to die. We both are bent on a defiant fiery rage and determined to show that one of us is the superior Hanzo. We both get our Ults up within a minute of gameplay. Both of us get triple kills every time we use our Ults. Both of us are on fire for the entire game and decimate the enemy team out of a petty fight for inter-Team Hanzo dominance. Our stats argue back and forth for gold medal eliminations and damage done. The other team can’t get through the choke point- god help them if they did. The rest of our team stands back in awe- designating themselves as simple support for the stragglers who get past us.
We dominate and become an unstoppable DPS Hanzo wall of wrath and dragonfire. At the end of the match I sit back and upvote the other Hanzo as a sign of solidarity. I’m fairly certain he upvoted me. Thank you, mystery Hanzo, for supporting me with proving hat Hanzo is not useless. We were rivals, now we are brothers. Thank you.
