I prefer Mei and Zarya. Cold weather girlfriends.

And I'm hoping Sombra is indeed an Omnic Support Sniper.

[up] And Mexican.

A female mexican robot support sounds hilarious. I hope they add a Sombrero and a Mustache skin as well

[up][up] A Russian & a Chinese..... Huh, there's something political there.

So if she is a sniper, how would she be different from Widowmaker?

Is it wrong that I now ship D Va and Lucio because I got the voice line where it turns out there both fans of eachother. ._.;

[up] Suport sniper, probaly debuffs.

Although I would LOVE a healing bullet, takes a while to reload compared to the other heals but allows healing from far away.

Probably use lasers rather than arrows or bullets, and probably has abilities that involve debuffing enemies when she shoots them.

[up] I ship them too.

I think were going overboard with the shipping now. I mean the game just started & we barely got any shit on the characters themselves besides a few one-shot comics & videos.

Lucio is a couple of years older than D. Va but outside of that i could see them work. Zarya and Mei definitely sounds Cool. (Zarya wants her coat for some reason)

[up] You can't stop the shipping. It can happen even before a series starts

Question: Do all characters speak their native tongues when they activate their ultimate if they are on the enemy team? Or just a couple of them? (Like the Shimadas for example)

Its not just the enemy team.

D Va does not though, she speaks english when activating hers.

I knew right when I heard that line of D.Va and Lucio both being each others biggest fans that the shippers would jump on that like a pack of wolves.

....Not that I am complaining. I think those two would be a cute couple. Although on the topic of Lucio are we ever going to find out what happened to his legs? Or are those actually some sort of armor rather then a cybernetic prosthetic?

It seems like most of the heros have SOME kind of cybernetics.

Even Phara does, although its hard to tell.... arms dont normaly have ball joints at the elbow.

As in they cant if there still there.

[up] Mercy actualy speaks german some times, english the others.... it is weird.

This the future, so its pretty high-tech which makes the characters with actual superpowers pretty contrasting.

I wonder if Blizzard will cash in on all this shipping craze just for the extra bucks it might make with merch or some shit like that?

Blizzard is always aware of the fandom. There is a particular ship that was very popular in warcraft (Thrall X Jaina) that Chris Metzen despised and even went out of his way to sink it.

I think they could capitalize on shippings in the near future. How will they do that is beyond me

What was his problem with the pairing?

It was a Crack Pairing that quickly became a Fan-Preferred Couple even though canon portrayed them as just friends. Then the writers created Aggra to shut up all those annoying shippers which certainly didn't help

[up][up][up][up][up]Poirot Speak is a time-honoured tradition to making blatantly-foreign characters when you don't want to have to put a translation of everything they say for your expected audience!

[up]If one wants to be charitable about their reasons, they may have thought "Jaina reminds Thrall of a woman Thrall cared for in his youth" a tad overdone.

I don't think there's anything wrong with Lucio's legs, those are probably just some kind of armor he's wearing.

And on Lucio and ships, I'm in doubt on whether I want to ship him with Tracer or D.Va, he could work well with either and no I'm not going for "both" tongue

On another note, it might be just a coincidence, but is it just me or whether there's fanart or comics showing someone getting the short end of the stick it's almost always Hanzo who gets screwed over? tongue

Well if the YMMV page is correct the Hanzo is being shipped with Mc Cree by fans of the bara genre.

[up] He gets a good amount like everyone else & the ones he does get are usually pretty spectacular.

the most frustrating thing in the world is being a max charged zarya, having just killed 1/3 the enemy team, STANDING ON THE POINT and frantically trying to kill the rest because your useless fucking teammates would rather shoot through the gates at hanamura than figure out what the fuck a point is and what to do about it.

Tracer/Widowmaker is probably he only ship in this game that I take issue with. But then again I was never very keen on hero/villain ships to begin with.

yeah, I don't give a fuck about the ships. I actively avoid them, really.
