As we love free speech and artistic expression on the internet, this could be seen as a classic case of a big company flexing its mighty legal muscles, but to be fair to Blizzard, it isn't as clear cut as that. Many innocent searches for "overwatch" led to adult-oriented material instead of game information. That's not great for something rated "T for Teen". Some fans saw this as censorship and worried about the precedent it set, but the controversy died down before it escalated into anything bigger. In the end, only a specific subset of content featuring in-game models ripped from the original code was taken down due to copyright infringem

You might think that Hanzo has a high place on the list, due to the fact that he is one of the few male characters who doesn't wear a mask (at least in his basic costume) and looks like a handsome older man. Hanzo is actually placed at #16, with Roadhog at #15. Yes, more people searched for Roadhog nudes that Hanzo. The incredibly obese Borderlands reject is considered to be more desirable than Ha

With history like that, it's not hard to see why the usually sunny and positive Tracer has a few problems with Mrs. Lacroix. Even if a player was unaware of the short, they may have been able to guess something was sour between the two thanks to some of the game's character interactions. Whilst idle in spawn, some characters will chat with each other, and the content ranges from goofy to informative. If Tracer and similar website Widowmaker are on the same team, there's a chance the two will badmouth each other, with Widowmaker calling Tracer an "annoyance" and Tracer expressing her distaste at having to cooperate with her ri

There are numerous locations in Japan that are named after Hattori Hanzō, as well as relics of his life that have survived into the present day, and are considered to be national treasures. As such, there have been numerous depictions of Hanzō in Japanese fiction, such as in N

According to the developers, Tracer, Reaper, and Widowmaker were the initial three heroes worked on by the team, with Tracer being the first. Her design is all about speed, which is why her iconic look is inspired by both fighter pilots and track athletes. As the character was refined, the creative teams ended up liking Lena so much that she automatically became the game's "mascot" despite not being intended as one. Creative director Chris Metzen even likened her to a certain wall-crawler, saying that Tracer became a " Spider-Man type character" for them, saying "She's so rad, and it feels good to leverage her in the front of story ide

Hanzo's original design was created out of the Overwatch development team's desire to include a ninja character. It was quickly decided that a dual sword/bow user would have lacked focus and may have had too much utility in combat. The decision was made to split Hanzo into two separate characters, with each one focusing on a different wea

"Cheers love, the cavalry's here!" If you're one of the 25 million people that have played Blizzard's Overwatch , that line and many others like it will be permanently burned in your brain. Unless you've been living under a hermetically sealed rock, you shouldn't need us to tell you that the game has been a massive hit since it launched last year and has garnered widespread praise from critics and gamers alike. It also spawned a huge and dedicated global fan community that have pored over the lore, taken part in every special event and created swaths of fan-art and creations inspired by the game (some more "interesting" than others, but we'll get to that). Character D.Va even inspired a real-life feminist movement in South Korea. How many other video games can say t

One of Hanzo's most useful attributes in Overwatch is the fact that he doesn't need to reload. He can use an infinite amount of arrows in a match and never has to worry about stopping to reload. The tradeoff for this is that he has to pull the arrow back in order to increase its power, which slows his movement speed down to a crawl. A fully charged Hanzo arrow is a deadly thing, however, as a headshot from it can kill most characters in a single
