// ok so mfriends and i were messing around on ptr qp and a duo decided to go zen/gen then the rest of us went even more zens. master/student and peaceful negotiation shenanigans ensues.
it was illios the enemy team were kinda baffled the first round and we tanked it no prob, so when it moved on to second round (after people came and went) we weeded out the ‘violent ones’ and spammed the new emotes until we squeezed out a victory
// i wanna use all my ptr money on emotes man i cant live like this

Some cool bits from the Overwatch panel at SDCC!
panelists: Michael Chu (senior designer), Arnold Tsang (assistant art director), James Waugh (director of story & creative development)
-Before the start of missions (assuming the context was during the Golden Age), Ana’s squad mates are injected with a special anti-venom so, as she supports them with her biotic rifle, the shots will be ensured to heal them. (take this as you will; a possible justification Tsang offered for her dual purpose rounds)
-On that same token, she equips herself with different sets of darts/ammo whenever she runs solo. (i.e. in the to-be-announced comics such as Old Soldiers and beyond; another possibility)
-In her inspiration sheet, her blue hooded scarf was intended to be reminiscent of a hijab, and she took some cues from a fellow, quote, “old badass sniper lady” from Mad Max.
-Regarding the crew photo in Ana’s backstory trailer and popular speculation, the mystery guy in the far left is confirmed not to be ‘Liao’.
-Quoting Michael Chu on a similar vein, Hanzo does not have ‘chicken legs’ and Mercy is not an ‘immortal vampire’. (and he punctuated the latter quite often; all in good nature of course)
-To sort of reiterate what the team has stated in other sources, any possibilities of characters (Pharah’s father in this case, any speculated ones otherwise) wouldn’t be told outright and would rather express them organically through their media and mediums; we’re just gonna have to wait and see in the coming years. (paraphrased from the Q&A)
-Reinhardt’s voice actor is just as much of a good sport as he is in-character: he was chilling out to the side and went up on stage when he was eventually called out by the panelists. The live Hammer Down’s and Catchphrase’s (and Thank You My Friends’) was g l o r i o u s.
-During the intermission before the panel actually started, they played some of the loading screen music in the background–fitting. But an attendee soon pulled out a trumpet and started playing the main theme fanfare to garter the audience–also incredibly cool and fitting. In response, the panelists eye wateringly requested an encore to formally kick off the panel.
