Here's something I noticed myself in-game today to add to the useless fact pile: Lucio has an emote called A Suave Gift where he takes out some flashing reindeer glasses and puts them on. If you have his Ribbit, Hippityhop or Poison Dart skins equipped, where he has a big frog helmet on, the glasses will be bigger to fit over the helmet's eyes.
As well as Kiri's voice actress (Sally Amaki) voicing Peni in Marvel Rivals, Juno's voice actress (Xanthe Huynh) voices Dagger, Soldier's voice actor (Fred Tatasciore) voices Hulk, and the voice actor for the payload on Hollywood (Travis Willlingham) voices Thor in Marvel Rivals!
Moira’s custom ult voiceline shows up in the season 9 PVE (Cosmic Crisis, I believe the name was) interestingly enough. If my memory serves me correctly, she shouts “Surrender your soul”.
Love this content! It feels rare to see genuine love for Overwatch these days lol. Also, Moira saying just "hi" in an irritated tone is cuter than it should be.
you don't understand how this feeds me, overwatch is the closest thing to a hyperfixation for me, I have never played the game, but I watch every patch video, every update, every new voice line like it's a reality show or sum
The glitchbot that's in the payload/limo on Hollywood has unique voicelines about the first hero to touch the point and I haven't seen anyone talk about it. Cool little detail.
I dont know if anyone knows this. But in the spawn point with the basketball hoop. Characters that can climb/jump can actually stand on the basket ball hoop. Characters like lucio, pharah and ashe. Haven't tried the others.
I wonder why they only made Kiri's voiceline rare. Orisa has a couple voice lines with variations, Current Outlook (as stated) and Annual Performance Analysis.
Thank you as always for the amazing content Niandra! You make some of the best and most unique OW videos out there:) And I hope you’re feeling better soon! As amazing as your content is we’ll understand if you want to take a break
Not sure if anyone else has noticed on Hanaoka - in one of the ramen shops the numbers above the little singular cubicles is numbered wrong - I believe it goes 1,2,3,4,4,5
9:56 the reason behind this is that moira transfers decay energy from her right hand to her left, and as she runs out of said energy she’s trying to use every single bit of what’s left
8:40 I made comments on this a couple months ago. That it sucks she didn’t have custom spears for every single one. Then Randomly the day it happens I just so happen to check the spears and see the update. I was surprised.
It is always a nice day when we get a full Niandra video. Also, I've been loving the shorts. Sometimes it takes me a while to watch a new video, but I can usually squeeze in a short pretty easily.
When Mercy throws a basketball through the hoop in spawn, she will automatically use her "piece of cake" voiceline if you have it equipped. Happy new year everyone!
3:17 I'm so glad rein saying "hewwo" wasn't a fever dream. I heard it a few weeks ago and thought I was going crazy, especially since everyone else in discord told me they didn't hear it, lol. Edit: "this is a reference to Balatro" LOL
On the topic of MR voice actors, Fred Tatasciore, the voice of Soldier is also the mainstay voice of the Hulk which he also portrays in the game. And Xanthe Huynh, the voice of Juno, is also the voice of Dagger.
I'm glad you've been changing your content to better help with your health this year ; o ; Sorry to hear its been rough, but thank you for all of these fact videos and shorts!! They're always so fun to watch whether I learn something new or go "eheheh I know that one!! 😈💗" These always have that old Overwatch excitement about them that I miss
The film company logo from Hollywood is a WoW reference but so is the name. Goldshire is an early human location (for the old spawn before new accounts had to start at the broken isle)
Love your content Niandra, not sure if you’ve already covered it but just like the kiriko voice line that has multiple options, wrecking ball also has one for his fortune voice line as well, unfortunately mine always turns up as bad luck because I play wrecking ball 😅
i love you niandra!! we’ll watch you no matter what content you make because you’ve always been such a beacon of positivity in the OW community! 💕 hope your health is on the up
with the colab going on it's missed opportunity to say that Wrecking Balls voice actor (Dee Bradley Baker) also does Momo and Appa in Avatar the Last Airbender!
The crazy prices in the American movie theater are a reference to how completely unhinged movie theater concession prices specifically had gotten. It's basically a meme, but yeah the US is f'd now.
3:27 I am really frustrated Mercy's mythic ult voiceline remains the same old "Heroes never die". It's so damn out of place give the context of the skin. Like what's stopping blizzard from not giving it to the mythic skin? Why keep it locked in the Mirrorwatch game mode? It's not like Mercy doesn't have unique ult voicelines for some other skins...
I wrote an old fanfiction about Mario the pizza guy from the Midtown map, some time before overwatch 2 released and just found it again yesterday. I just needed to tell somone.
Oh I got a useless fact. Mei's new skin Celestial has a bug with one the emotes. The first one, i think its called sunny dance or something similar. She just stands there in a rigid almost T-pose, clearly not emoting. Idk why its only that emote either, the rest work fine. This applies to the emote in the menus, idk what happens if you try using the emote in-game. I would test it myself, but im saving my coins for the Juno Celestial skin that i haven't heard or seen anything about since the Avatar colab video. Seriously, if anyone knows anything, please tell me. I want that skin.
ashe's voice actor, jennifer hale, is in a lot of cartoons & anime dubs! i love watching random dubbed animes and hearing ow voice actors. like, "hey, i know who that is." torb's voice actor, keith silverstein, is also in a lot of dubbed animes!
@@maneater I had a video breakdown of Mighty Med playing in the back ground while doing chores and was surprised to hear that Sym's VA, Anjali Bhimani, played a character. The TH-camr played a clip of her saying "I don't like you" and I was caught off guard since I was only listening. Sounded exactly like Sym and something she would say lol I love finding familiar voices/faces!
3:20 im a solider main whos also addicted to the “hello” voiceline, i got “whats poppin?” once and the only thought i had on my mind was WHO DOES THIS GUY THINKS HE IS
I still don't know why we don't have the mercy ult voiceline, like...her current one does NOT fit the mythic.
Fr like let me be eeeeeevil
Sigma, Moira:
I think it’s stupid since they’ve changed ult voice lines in the past. LOOK AT THE SHIMADA BROTHERS
in mirrorwatch gamemode its vengeance never dies
@@itfloyd_official yeah the game mode, but not in the reg game mods??? It's ridiculous 😭 this game company is so lazy
ELITE
3:15 Hazard also has a rare voiceline but its for his "group up" in it he says "Group up ya silly billies" its so funny i wish it was more common
I took off my 'group up' bind in favor of 'fall back' - i see now i must revert this mistake
ELITE face-purple-crying
Is it weird that I read it in Hazard's voice in my head? Eh this voice line just adds more reasons for me to love him

The cutoff for Balatro though 😂

Here's the timestamp :) 7:41

Sooooo the voice actors jumped ship and joined Marvel Rivals. Nice.
Are you all babies?. They are voice actor/actress their job is to voice games, anime and other things. They have no favoritism.
7:42 "This is a reference to bala-"🗣🗣🔥🗣🔥🗣🔥🗣🔥🗣🔥🗣🔥🗣🔥🗣🗣🔥🗣🔥🗣🔥🗣🔥🔥🗣🔥🗣🗣🔥
Not getting custom mythic voice lines on all mythics, especially Mercy and Moira is CRIMINAL.
Edit: nice to see you again, I love these videos :3
Moira’s custom ult voiceline shows up in the season 9 PVE (Cosmic Crisis, I believe the name was) interestingly enough. If my memory serves me correctly, she shouts “Surrender your soul”.
There’s also Sigma’s “The universe bows to me”

that venture and genji interaction is the cutest thing ever
Ik im really sad it got censored for my account 😞
10:37 Sorry to hear that you live in the UK. I hope you get well soon!
sounds like living in the UK is the illness 😁
Love this content! It feels rare to see genuine love for Overwatch these days lol.
Also, Moira saying just "hi" in an irritated tone is cuter than it should be.
When Moira says it, it appears in the subtitles with quotes around it too.

1:37 SO THEY JUST GAVE THE SKIN TO KIRIKO??? THAT WOULD OF BEEN SO SMART IF ASHE GOT IT?????
poster child moment
The glitchbot that's in the payload/limo on Hollywood has unique voicelines about the first hero to touch the point and I haven't seen anyone talk about it. Cool little detail.
thats like the most well known and oldest easter egg in overwatch
@ArdaSReal I don't remember him making hero specific comments before but maybe I just never noticed until Overwatch 2. 🤣
WOOOO NIANDRA POSTED

Literally every ow creator still plays ow ;-;
@@F1_soap Not what I said.
Have a great day!
4:40
The word "ايمان" indeed means faith or believe, but for some reason its written and mirrored next to it
9:56 the reason behind this is that moira transfers decay energy from her right hand to her left, and as she runs out of said energy she’s trying to use every single bit of what’s left
that's so messed up that the spray of Tracer and Emily is blocked from POTG....

THE "this is a reference to balatro!" GOT ME SO HARD LOL
something you missed about sojourn's cozy skin. the little murphy on top of her gun jiggles. anyway, great video as always. hope you have a good 2025!
4:10 ive notice this long time ago, and also pink mercy have the ow1 beam in highlight intros
with the colab going on it's missed opportunity to say that Wrecking Balls voice actor (Dee Bradley Baker) also does Momo and Appa in Avatar the Last Airbender!
8:31 Shame, since that would be a fun detail if they still kept it.
I don’t play overwatch anymore but I still love watching your videos ❤
Not once in my life have i ever hear soldier go "what's poppin?"
This made me smile. Thanks!

please dont stop making these, i love these useless facts/easter eggs for overwatch

i love these videos so much
Why did I find "they slash them" so funny lol
“This is a reference to Balatro” LMAO
Juno‘s Voice actress also Has a role in Marvel Rivals. She voices dagger 🥰
thanks niandra overwatrch i found these overwatch 2 facts very useful!
1:12 this actually looks like a moon crescent, maybe thats why it has moving stars?
"Oh shit, 2014"
That's when you learn that you're becoming old
Pretty sure zen also has the only epic victory pose with the one reading the book from the season 5BP
5:37 I don't think genji got the joke
“Apologies, but *[gorillas]* are not allowed on the premises.”
He didn’t have to say it with the hard G 😭

In Family Guy Season 20 Episode 14 at 2:36
Joe says he's been off Fortnite and been playing Overwatch lately.
9:02 I may be stupid, but who out of these 4 has the second mythic weapon? Isn't there only soldier, rein and ana...?
Ashe is confirmed to have a mythic gun skin...idk when it's coming out tho😭

The balatro joke was so good.
Dagger in Marvel Rivals has the same voice actor as Juno
Also Marvel's Dagger is the same VA as Overwatch's Juno
Matt Mercer, Xanthe Hyunh and Sally Amaki are all in Marvel Rivals and OW2
Am I missing something, of the sniper heroes only Ana has a mythic weapon right? Why do u say two????
Ashe is getting a mythic weapon mid season
@@LeoOW2 where is this announced?
@@Alex_Asp previously it was leaked in season 13, and then confirmed by overwatch Calvary on Twitter, it’s called lead rose
For 82 there's also another critter on 1st point near the stair case 😅
0:19 yo Mei has foamposites?? 😂
"Kiriko also works on Peni Parker"
Oh no... there is no escape from kiriko huh...
the juno va voices dagger in marvel rivals as well
Solidar 76 is also in Marvel Rivals as Hulk
The arena thing really suprised me cuz i thoght i knew everything
4:59 "in the OW universe" wasn't needed tbh
that echo /muaga one wasnt useless, thats actually kinda useful!
That’s great but I managed to overcome the overwatch addiction
The cass intro is perfect.

My dumbass thought Hanzo's bow had accuracy reduction because of that, like certain character from TF2 😭
Let me guess, sniper with huntsman? (I think that's how one of sniper's bows was called. Idk I didn't play tf2 in months)
