Rage Chaotic That's what I thought. Overwatch really just begs to have a story mode, but there isn't for some reason
Rage Chaotic it does but its reeeeeeaaaalllly subtle

Their going to make a DOC with a few skins maps and a campaign I think
it has uprising
Reaper doesn't pull his gun out from his cloak he pulls them out from the 25th dimension

*comment of the year award goes to...*
i just realised i'm sitting on Tjorbjörn
don't let it use molten core or don't rip it
Now I wanna see a picture of Reaper carrying a bunch of shotguns everywhere...
+Finnsauce LlasdNaem He buys them in bulk but doesn't recycle them afterwards. He's the worst!
+Toadking07 Eric That monster!
+Finnsauce LlasdNaem there's a spray in for reaper where he has his coat open and he has a bunch of guns hanging on the inside, i think it's called "psst"
+Fung-ku "Hey kids, you wanna buy some guns?"
I think he has a storage place and Little teleporters at his belt to get new guns
Overwatch Heroes: **Exists**
Spy Mains holding a couple of Sappers: "I'm going to end this whole team's career."
Facts lol
Widwomaker had an inflating butt because of an animation error? Talk about apt accident.
thomb raider syndrome
"accident" : > )
+gicady Asscident
A freudian glitch.
Yes "accident"
Lucio reminds me so much of Wasabi from Big Hero 6...
Red Demon8 same bro
probably a bit of the inspiration
Bastion reminds me of Wall-E
YASSSS!
Red Demon8 He is a little more spunky and fun though :')
Fact 108
Tracers butt is a popular thumbnail
Clap.Clap.Clap
Fact 110
Tracer likes touching widow makers butt
... wtf
LMAO so true
the one from widowmaker is better
14:14 when you find out schools out for an entire 2 weeks
Lol mine had mold so our summer was lengthened XD
Imagine being the only person in the house and seeing that at midnight
Fact 108: Mccree's belt says BAMF. Which is the sound Nightcrawler (Marvel Comics) makes when he teleports.
+Emmett McMahon Oh really? I never knew that.
It stands for "Bad at making friends" ;)
Almighty LatinKing Gambino Oh.._and thanks

Nightcrawler!" -Judas Priest
Wait... I just noticed, if reaper never reloads then why does he have shotgun shells on his chest?
Speedywaffles xD
Speedywaffles it's just to prove that he COULD reload but he's too edgy for that
They are actually party poppers, but nobody will believe you.
Why do I exist XD that comic
Speedywaffles probs for looks
gg isnt a starcraft referance, thats just in every game.
plus, soldier 76 says that too if you pay attention
GG is a general gaming reference, but D.Va is a pro Starcraft 2 player in canon.
doesn't she also say "nerf this" when she ults
+Santiago Trestini (facepalm)
well gg came from starcraft 1 e sports tho ^^
Wow, my chair is an overwatch hero, and I'm sitting on it right now
D.Va is 19... this is good to know
Finally I know her age (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
well your username says it all :D
+MisterD90 Gaming I have a bad feeling about that person...
+Lisa Williams Don't worry man (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
+xx_Gravity goatZ_xx 37.
Overwatch is just not a game but it's a life of experience
It's actually just a game.
Technically it is more than a game because of animation shorts, comics, and the likes. So therefore it's more of a franchise than a game.
Overwatch is jus game
Brulavas EA sperts, iz juss gaame
Typic Cheese iz juz uh gaem broh
I lost it at "handlebar-mustached security guard"
the
The?
Scruffy, the janitor.
12:35 “Herthstone”
I’m losing faith in humanity

Infamously- WRONG
Infamously- heyyyy!

Infamously- :(
Bruno Prearo its hanzo
Mercy, Mercy is probably my favourite.
Mercy's my favourite as well.
TOY0BOY0
Nice, it's not just me then. xD
Znoochy me tooooo
mchanzos
NIce, another one.
I main her too,buuut...Yeah. No one respects you... ;^;
handlebar mustache security guy is gonna be my fav hero when he comes out i swear.
What his name should be is the real question?
+SirWAFFLES 56 Händlbār
+Androo perfect NAILED IT!!!
he should be voiced by Nick Offerman (Ron)
Same
In fact 42, you forgot Mercy
She would say "Heroes never died" in Swiss
That is, if she is on the other team
You mean German?
They should make a film or movie about overwatch
A film is basically a movie
Jeff no it's not
That's way tf2 is better than overwatch.
Tf2 has ALOT of film and animation.
@@thebadmedic89 Agreed! TF2 forever!
Edit: I'm a medic main 😆
Hey guys, this is Kyle, the Overwatch Fanatic voicing this. Just wanted to say thanks for watching! Hope to see you on the battlefield
If you play on PC, you hopefully will.
+Magmorix I do! So the chances have doubled!
+Alphalance I play on my Xbox One. I personally think the controls are easier. Mostly because I don't really play games on PC.
+sixth magician45 you Know that you can connect your Controller to a PC?
NoSoMuSk Yeah. But I already pre-ordered it on my Xbox One, so I can't get it on pc.
Fact 108: Reaper's Hellfire shotguns are a reference to Ghost Rider's trademark weapon of the same name
8:10 wooooooooooooo it happened
That one cool Guy
It wasn't called blizzneyland
(That name makes me laugh)
I wish it actually had been called Blizzneyland XD
I wanna go to bizzneyland
*C H E A T E R B O T*
I'm trying to play FarmVille but this one player keeps mowing my grass
Mookieriel Is it the Farmer27?
Yeah, TheFarmer27!
Who's the Farmer27?
BizarreBanana some say the Farmer27 was the first FarmVille player ever
JLT05 born from grass
does every overwatch thumbnail have tracer?
steamfend: Well, she *is* the postergirl for Overwatch.
Mei can be heard saying " Let it go!" Which is a possible reference to the Disney movie Frozen.
Oh if I know anything about Blizzard, that's definitely a reference
Depends on what tone of voice.
+Alphalance he he he frozen.....blizzard
Her ult is also called Blizzard, which is both a reference and a very explanatory name for the ability.
In the german version, she *sings* that phrase: "The cold never botherd me anyway"(in german ofc). Thats kinda cool tho.
6:43 one of those characters in the picture looks like scout from tf2
Ha I get it number 76 was about soldier: 76
Oh my god, how did I miss that!?!?!?
+Parasaurolophus ikr
.... srsly??
Nice find
lazygamer Nice find
36 *Torbjörn is actually a normal name in Sweden. In fact the letter ö is not the same letter as o and is even pronounced differently. Yup, so the Swedish dwarf himself pronounce it wrong
I'm Hungarian and we also have ö in our alphabet and it just bugs me so much that they keep pronouncing it "o". I know it's hard for native english speakers to pronounce it but still XD
Torbjorn always said "Terb-yern".
It has always angered me that they did not hire a Swedish voice actor, or that he screams in Swedish when he ults :/
idk, nature? You Swedish?
Wait as a Finn I have a question about that. Do you pronounce the o in it as an å or u?
Gan-a-may-day
It's Gan-ee-mede
Ganymede. Ganemede. Not Ganamayday.
Tyrone La Sala
Look up Ganymede, see the god that the bird'd name is based on, and bam.
(Or see the result of one of Jupiter's moons)
Or just look up the pronunciation of Ganymede.
Im greek, I can confirm this.
Em's Animation i knowwwww it annoys me
Em's Animation it triggered me
Gana- MAY DAY, MAY DAY! *explosion in background*
2:22
And then there's Ashe that I keep mistaking for Widowmaker every single time I see her in the match
Fact 108 there is SOOOOO much porn of it
Nathan Skeen lol the hidden fact
quick question: why do they do 107 facts? I feel like there is some kind of backstop to this
Nathan Skeen of overwatch?
I have heard Ana being called Anna but... ANYIA???
76=info for 76
;) good catch
Didn't Lucio steal his shoes / roller skates from Volskaya Industries too ?
halor3con999 no he stole them from Vishkar
He stole them from simetra s company
halor3con999 it's vishkar not volskaya
halor3con999 he didn’t actually STEAL them. His Father was the one who made the sonic technology that he uses, but Vishkar took it from him and used it as their own. He took it back from them :)
Veljko Mikić symmetra *
Just realised I was sitting on a tjolborn chair
your profile pic says it all
lmao
Same
Torbjörn was only made the swedish character because of Ikea.
Same here
Im deciding if i should buy overwatch, but are all heroes free?
Yup all 21 come with the game with new ones to be released in the future.
How much is the game?
Origins Edition is $59.99 on consoles and PC. There's a standard edition on PC as well for $39.99 I believe. I play on PS4 myself and have really enjoyed the 20+ hours I've put in so far. Definitely a lot better with a friend but still fun alone.
All heroes are free and any DLC in the future such as new heroes or maps are to be free as well
DaltMc Well I won't be playing it anytime soon, then. I am broke as a ho.
reinhardt is 61. always thought that soldier 76 was the oldest
Teqo: HDnoob Soldier and Reaper have no known age.
Sasha Blouse that makes no sense cos they're both human. cept reaper has powers
DVa I guess u make a point there
Just because it says 76 he's not really that old can you see how that man can run
he is in his 50s from what we know no exact age tough
Solider 76 is fact #76
"while junkrat has lost an arm and a leg." does he have a younger brother with his soul bound to a suit of armour?
k ima leave
Ayy lmao
The reference game is on point
WAIT younger brother soul bound to a suit of armour BLIZZARD HAS WATCHED FMA
I see what you did there
no full metal alchemist
Number 61: sidenote
The character models were made based off of these and gifted to the community to use in art as well. So making your own high quality overwatch movie just required the animation. It also allowed to people to make a lot of really professional looking porn.
bro where can I get the links to the character models?
Wanpan Man I found them on a forum for blender before Blizzard went all panic mode. I'd Google and get a link for you, but I'm kinda lazy bro
it's ok maybe next time :'D
+Wanpan Man It's all on the Overwatch website under the "media" tab.
Lathan Harlan got it thank you very much :)
Haha, I was always confused as to who was calling Mcree's name dumb on the Hollywood map
12:08 You've been planning this all along
the part of lucio and Dva saying stuff to each other..i was playing lucio and someone was tracer and tracer said "hey lucio ill race you!" and lucio said "oh your on!"
+mmboy2010 There are a lot of great character interactions like that. The DVa & Lucio one was just our favorite ^-^
"Hazmat suit guy" eventually evolved into the idea for Ana.
What you may not know is that I'm from the Future.
And in this timeline she would get that as a skin...
8:08 👍💪
8:10 well, little did they know a year and a half later they announced blizzard world xD
"107 Overwatch Facts You should Know" "YOU CAN BUY A CHAIR FROM IKEA CALLED TORBJORN" Some nice Overwatch facts we got here
You forgot one : a voice line for pharah says fly like and egyptian, an obvious reference to the song fly like an eagle
PeonThePhoenix I'd argue it's a more likely pun on "Walk Like an Egyptian", as Pharah flies rather than walks.
maybe both....
I feel like it's more so "Walk like an Egyptian" I've never heard of the song you said.
TOY0BOY0 its kinda old
PeonThePhoenix and she also says "Rocket Jump? That sounds dangerous" after the 'Rocket jump' move of Soldier from TF 2
fact #108 tracer has a girlfriend. named Emily
I love that the characters are so diverse and they each have their own backstories, which are beautifully created and produced..... BABY WINSTON IS ADORABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is anyone surprised this game didn't have a campaign mode?
Just IMAGINE how good the campaign would be with THAT anamation.
Yeah I was..
nope, blizzard said it wouldn't.
I feel like if you think about how there's always events that come with their own game mode (Halloween, Summer Games, and obviously more to come) They could do something along the lines of creating events for specific singular missions that are more story based. That would be awesome.
Kasen Gaming no who would like it too much characters too much different ways too beat it and it is WWWWWWWAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY BETTER as a modern tf3
"Overwatch has a hero for everyone."
oh hell yeah, i vote for Reinhardt! *HAMMER DOWN!*
Genji
Tracer. She's just too fuckin adorable.
Mercy.
What? I love being a supportive team player :D
Reinhardt brothers unite. SHIELD ENGAGE!
luci :oo
Fact #1: Bastion is overpowered.
In low elo he is
Learn to counter him. It's super easy. He has 3 easy counters.
Bastion is not overpowered just noobs think he is because they charge into areas without looking and get killed by him just learn how to avoid and counter him
No, he is not. If you meet Bastion, just switch to Tracer and kick his robotic ass.
use pharah
5:26 She was also first named Mercy.
I wish there was a campaign for overwatch :(
i know right it would be so cool
Xpx Techno IKR
yjere is
dying iranian child lmao everyone asks for it
Xpx Techno replying to yourself? I still want it tho
I am from Brazil and I just discovered that Lúcio stole the gun he uses... How appropriate.
He also fights for the freedom of his people
True too. Brazilians are brave fighters. Each one in its own way.
>=)
Br huehuehue Mordekaiser es numero uno.... best meme ever.
Reinhardt is 61?? What a badass.
Ikr it would be cool if he was your grandpa 😂
I have bloodhardt and more stretching required.
he is german afterall, we are awesome XD
Overwatch: EVERYTHING MUST BE FUN
**falls out of chair in laughter**
Don't ever pronounce ganymede like you did ever again or I'll explode.
#108: Junkrat can also be heard saying, "Why so serious?"since he does look and act a bit like an Ozzy version of Joker. I don't really understand why Junkrat is considered a defense character, though.
I think its because of how quickly he can destroy someone, one well placed trap and a shot with your weapon is a kill on pretty much everything except tanks. He can also get to some harder to get to spots that give him an advantage when defending. Just my opinion though :P
You're on the right track. His trap and mine are good defense options, but not the best (though not bad) offense options. He can clear a point with his grenades, but when assaulting his grenades are not as direct as Reaper or Tracer's weapons.
But yeah, feels borderline, and I play Junkrat whenever the map suits.
"Ozzy"
Why can't Americans spell "Aussie"
Because Aussies keep whining about it being pronounced 'ozzy'.
taurnguard Huh. I thought it was a fault in the education system.
my favorite character is tracer
Mcree
me too
Never would have guess with your profile pic, shushicat
Mercy is bae
Genji is Senpai
11:05 I see u wearing that Portal 2 shirt also where can I get one?
Fact 109 when tracer and Reinhardt are in the starting room together you can hear tracer say when I was young I had a poster of you then Reinhardt says I no that
That was pharah who said that
That's Pharah who says that, not Tracer. Pharah's mother, Ana, was one of the original Overwatch members/founders and as such probably had her daughter around the OW members.
pharah bruh
D.Va, Tracer, Widowmaker.
The three waifus
*****
Oh yeah, He's the solution to every "op" character in the game
+MoneyMadam hahhaahahahah thats funny
way to leave out the black chick racist
junkrat best waifu
+Alex Awesomepotatosauce There isn't a black chick...
i swear to god if handlebar mustache guy is a janitor and gets a playable character with some kind of soap gun that makes enemies slip around I would buy loot crates until I had literally everything for him
My favorite character from Overwatch is Heavy !
Overwatch is literally a futuristic TF2 with way better personalities, themes, and more diverse characters. I love TF2, but Overwatch was the first real game I've been excited about.
I dont share this opinion. There are two diffreces from the game. Movmentxand graphics thats the diffrence. Oh yeah and the super abilities.
+Thatedvardguy There's many differences. Please be more specific when talking about "Movement" and"Graphics".
They really aren't all that different. It's just 2 different games in the same genre. Me and my friends call Overwatch "If tf2, dota2, lol, smite, heroes of the storm and all other MOBAs (Sorry if I missed your choice of game) had a baby with all the good its from each game in it's DNA
It's the Ultimate Cell of MOBAs
Jake Corcoran Yea it is
How about the fact that there is a very large amount of Overwatch porn? Not that I would know... Cough cough...
I'll never understand why.
Fact 108: Junkrat in-game says, "Why so serious?" A reference from the Joker.
Specifically, Heath Ledger's Joker because Heath Ledger was also Australian.
TOY0BOY0 yup.
Don't forget the Jester skin.
Ganymede is pronounced Gan-eh-mead
D.Va was a Starcraft 4 player, not Starcraft 2.
starcraft 3 confrimmed????
actually another way they teased D.Va before her release was that they created a Starcraft 2 player profile for her.. so she was a player.
Considering how long it took for them to make Starcraft 2, I don't think Starcraft 4 will be released any time before 2099.
zenyatta isn't a cheater bot...he's an aimbot
get outta here m8
*Insert Widowmaker aimbot voiceline*
Fcking hackerbot
That's most likely should be Soldier 76
No, the aimbot is Torbjörn's goddamned turret.
Fact 108: everyone has the hots for Tracer.
+Qui-Mono Well we could have made that fact 34 but we thought that would be a predictable joke
+Alphalance Ha! That would have been Gold. Good job by the way.
Theshdow424 well you cant denied that the moment Blizzard released the first trailer everybody was ruling 34 Tracer. After Widowmaker of course... and reaper.
+Qui-Mono honestly, I can't love her not her body because I'm incredibly annoyed at her because I'm a d.va main, so basically she wrecks my mech.
Its alright mate, sometimes people have different tastes
* realizes I have a Torbjörn chair* wait, what!? I sit on it every day, I had no idea!
3 more minutes until it comes out in America!
im sad becuz its not on steam
idk it came out to day so I didn't get to play
+NitroSpectre Gaming Got it today.
Well thank god battle net is not that bad.
TheHeroOfTime - TheBluBomber I pre ordered the origins edition
my favorite hero in overwch is genji
Same
Junkrat
Mark Wolf McCree
Mark Wolf Pardon me.
i need healing.
fact 24 is the only fact i needed to know, this is awesome lol. wish they left it in the game.
+Selvokaz Dat booty doe..
I think the hydralisk skull is a _pretty_ big thing. IT has terrifying implications, including the Queen of Blades, and it also would suggest that Marshall Jim Raynor may be real in the overwatch universe, meaning his sprite may be no coincidence
Well now I know my chair is named tobjorn
14:43 someone's been watching too much monty python.
Yeah, that Holy Hand Grenade. I wonder if it has the same explosive power as the one in worms?
i want to kill a rabbit it with it, just to know if it's legit.
Lol I was about to comment that
Somebody throw it at D.va
lobeth thy holy hand grenade of Antioch
the over watch beta is released on may 24 2015
may 24 is the day i was born
Same
lol
no i'm saying i was born on may 24
that is the DAY i was born. not the year
Gilly Games me too
Gilly Games I was born May 26 😂
"Jesse McCree was named after a Blizzard employee, Jesse McCree." thank you for telling us who Jesse was named after I'd be confused otherwise
Why is there an ad about vibraters
SamuraiVader cause tracer can't get dick anymore. So there on sale... OMFG I HATE THAT I WROTE THAT
SamuraiVader mine was with egg plant vibrater and they tested them and the moaning noises where loud
Ads based on search history
Design wise I like them all, granted I love McCree's look better than mosts. But honestly I adore Mei, she is totally adorable.
+Giles Saint-Loup Mei is so adorable!! Have you seen all her animations?? "Sorry, sorry, sorry!"
+Giles Saint-Loup When I was playing the open beta some guy said over his mic "I'm going to try this eskimo chick. She's adorable." And i laughed my ass off.
+Giles Saint-Loup Mei is like the Teemo of overwatch, adorable on the outside, but a true demonic monster on the inside
+StarryGlobe089 that's tracer.... Fking tracer (mercy main tho XD)
she is an ice hero yet she is a spawn of the buring hells
Im sorry, but who gets a "Team Fortress 2" vibe from this game?
literally everyone.
They're In The Same Genre (But TBH, Overwatch Is Better)
Every sensible person on the planet
I very much do
its an fps, so of course they look alike
10:04 " a few weeks after overwatch's closed bee...ta went live" VOICE CRACK
thank you for not mentioning the tracer victory pose to many facts videos think that's important alot of neat stuff on lucio good job
That's less a fact and more a thing that happened, not nearly as interesting! Glad you enjoyed our 107 facts!
Here's a fact for ya.. The fact that had to be removed out of the game because feminists think it implies too much and little kids jizz at the sign is ridiculous. Seriously.. THAT is what gets people all riled up? Jesus Christ we are seriously fucked as a species
11:50 Anya Amari?
17:24 Herthstone.... XD
Who else cracked up laughing at fact 11? XD
+Mello Chello "Cheater bot!"
Zenyhatta reported.
Why do robots and computers always cheat and hack the game silence my butt 😡
Zenyatta: "Deal with it"
5:09 Oh yeah. Yeah I was wondering what that was about when IGN decided to use that same footage when they announced some event about Overwatch being free for the weekend.
