I'm usually on the fence when it comes to hero Re-works but this acc sounds decent??
Satisfying Sombra pick :)
Why is the 2023 anniversary player icon just wilding at the top of the menu, instead of being in chronological order??
The second Archives event took place in 2018, it started on the 10th April and finished on the 30th of April.
The brand new brawl/mission that was introduced during this event was the Retribution event, which followed the Blackwatch cast (Reaper/Gabriel Reyes, Jesse McCree/Cole Cassidy, Moira and Genji). The aim of their missions was to take the head of Talon, Antonio Bartalotti, in. Instead, Antonio goads Gabriel Reyes and explains that any action they take will be a waste of time since his political connections will have him out of prison by the end of the week. Realising he's right, Gabriel Reyes changes the plan (Drastically) and shoots Antonio instead. The Retribution mission is their hasty escape from Rialto.
Not only was this mission introduced but we were also given a handful of brilliant skins.
Scion Hanzo and Soldier 24 are some of my favourite skins as well, so 2018 achieves skins were ab absolute win.
Here are all the cinematics for the mission as well:
I think, short as it is, that there's some really interesting content in the videos.
To start off with, I find it really funny that the video starts with McCree taking out one guy, then Gabriel takes out one guy as well, then Moira takes out three guys and it's like woah ok. Then Genji says hold my bear and takes out an entire group.
It amuses me.
Also, this interaction between McCree and Gabriel, he addresses him as 'Reyes' respectfully, but you can tell he's toeing the line out of concern because they're not just comrades. They're not just commander and follower. They were friends! They worked together for 20 years and it shows in this interaction here!
He's challenging his commanders decisions because he knows that they're friends and he's concerned for him!
Also, please look at these pictures and say to my face that this is not a man who's reflecting on every choice he made since joining Overwatch, and I dare you to tell me those choices aren't weighing heavily on his shoulders!
This is a man that knows if he keeps doing things the way he was doing them, nothing is ever going to change.
So he does something drastic and he kills a man.
He looks so tired :(
I sort of forgot the purpose of this post because I just got carried away psycho analysing Gabriel Reyes.
So, I guess your welcome <3
Throwback to OW1 when me and my duo threw to Silver and actually got stuck 😮💨😂
(Miss you portraits and old rank symbols 😘😘 AND OW1)!!
Some more dvattra doodles (plus a bonus zen)
Ok, so clearly these two are connected, but... how? The map of Junkertown is pretty closed off right? I can't imagine how the two are connected, because obviously they must be, since they're both 'Junker'.
Istg is Blizzard comes out with some rubbish like they're two separate locations I'm going to throw hands. I can imagine them saying something like 'Junker town belonged to the previous Junker King and new Junk town was the town Junker Queen built'.
Which is rubbish because Junker Queen has literal voice lines when the gates of Junker town open for specific people. Plus there's posters and propaganda of her all over Junker town.
So, I have no idea how Blizzard are going to connect Junker town and New Junk City. I'd really appreciate a map or something yk Blizzard. Like can you actually make your lore make sense for a hot moment, please and thank you.
I've played Overwatch for six years and I need mental help. 21. She/Her.
