Dialling back repetition and fixing awkward and/or incorrect grammar in the Overwatch example tree.


* Considering ''VideoGame/{{Overwatch}}'' setting about heroes, some characters really fit the bill more than others. Those that stand out include:
** Tracer, a beamingly cheerful British pilot who totes a dual gun and perpetually cheerful, always constantly positive and fighting for common good in the world, with her motto being "The world could use more heroes." Helping things are the fact that she can reverse time and reappear in a place several seconds before her. Bonus points for being unashamedly lesbian and not being discriminated for it, making more lesbian people feel more awed by her.
** Lucio, a funky Brazilian DJ who doubles as a freedom fighter and struck against a corrupt corporate from harming his people, becoming famous for that and spreads the good message of unity and freedom. He's loved by a lot of people, very social (except against anyone from that corporate) and his music, helped with his tools, can either heal people or stimulate them to move faster.
** D.Va, a 19-year-old South Korean GamerChick who is an undefeated ''VideoGame/{{Starcraft}}'' pro, being conscripted by her nation's military in order to fight off giant robots that invaded her country, never losing optimism despite the horrors she went through and in fact streams her battles to lift her people's spirits and in battle, likes to pepper gaming jargon in battles, and also doubles as a celebrity.
