Onryō Hanzo | Overwatch

[cantatrickster]

onryō hanzo sometimes just Roars if he's nanoboosted

[artzybirdy]

Hellooo...

This skin makes me feel things.

[afriendlywolf]

Big PvE and hero skill trees scrapped what can I do but laugh.

[d-jango-d-jango]

Turns out there's only 2 weapons and 3 colors available to choose from. I'm disappointed but not surprised. Common blizzard L. I wish we could at least have the option to change his horns or hair but that would be expecting too much from small indie company blizzard.

First look at

~ Mythic Hanzo ~

This is all I have ever wanted, it's actually sooo good

[daemonchainz]

As someone who favors Widowmaker over Hanzo

Hanzo fans deserved to have this World of Warcraft skin. Hanzo would have ate that crop top bra thing up!

Ignoring the lore is one thing but ignoring the characters literal hero weapons is insane.

Sill angry Ram didn’t get the mythic. Also upset Illiari doesn’t have a Ra skin and instead has a god of war.

Ana and Pharah didn’t Isis and Horus skins, literal mother/healing and god of the sky. I would rather Ana got this than the mythic weapon.

Venture didn’t get an archaeologist skin and still doesn’t have ANYTHING

Doomfist getting a skin of Bast, a goddess of fertility, is literally so laughable when they could have given him Thoth. The skin is really nice tho.

[marrum]

Ok... i cannot deny is a good skin but..

I´m stil mad for the hanzo mythic they gave us... (mine main)

Nothing compared to this

[lloline]

Mirrorwatch: The Overwatch What If

This is for the mutuals and anyone who hasn't touched Overwatch in AGES. Overwatch 2 has been pumping out new content in monthly seasons, and here in Season 10, we have the Non-Canon Mirrorwatch Event.

(If you want you can watch the announcement video for Season 10)

{What is Mirrorwatch?}

A fierce fight between Overwatch and Talon rages upon Watchpoint: Gibraltar. And in a single moment, an unstoppable object would collide with an immovable force. A Punch from Doomfist against Reinhardt's shield so hard it shatters reality. Among its pieces, an alternate reality.

==============================

{Who's Who Now?}

Alignments have shifted in Mirrorwatch, Overwatch Agents are now part of Talon, and Talon Agents now Overwatch. But let's see who specifically, with some explanation as to why I think things changed

Overwatch

Overwatch is led by Strike Commander Ogundimu. It's likely in this reality this Doomfist was mentored by the First Doomfist, Adhabu "The Savior" Ngumi, As opposed to the canonical universe, where Akande was mentored by the Second Doomfist, Akinjide "The Scourge of Numbani" Adeyemi, who was the person who recruited him into Talon.

His second in command is Captain LaCroix. Whether or not her husband Gerard was assassinated, Lacroix joined Overwatch and climbed the ranks as their lead sniper, and I can tell you for sure, there's a lot of lore for her considering who she's fought with in canon.

The last Overwatch agent in this event is Agent Colomar. Overwatch likely had more involvement in the displacement of orphans after the Omnic crisis, So instead of finding power in manipulation and information, she found power in helping others improve. Plus her Hack symbols have smiley eyes

Talon

In Mirrorwatch, Angela Ziegler takes the moniker of Vengeance as the leader of Talon. Not much is know as to why she chose this path, all that we know is that her nefarious plans are for humanity's future. Vengeance Mercy is this Season's Mythic Skin, and so has variations to her design, and during the event, her resurrection has changed from reviving to detonating fallen souls.

Second to Vengeance is Arch-Commandant Ana. Once again, there are some details I'd like to go further into later, And much like Doomfist of canon, Ana believes the world has grown complacent.

The first Talon Agent I'll talk about is Reinhardt, taking the name Fallen Knight, which implies at some point he defected from Overwatch to Talon's side. Judging by his voiceline when eliminating Ana, He doesn't like being leashed around.

Talon Zarya. I got nothing for Zarya being a Talon Agent other than Volskaya Industries being evil and loaning her out to Talon.

Now this is menacing~ Talon Brigitte has some real lore to theorize about. Either she's been raised under Talon if Torbjorn was sided with Talon to begin with, or she enlisted with Talon after learning Reinhardt defected to it. Also look at Mitzi, looking all evil and forboding.

And lastly Operative Oxton, where to begin~ A few fan comics have head-canoned that Lena's chrono-accelerator was faulty/damaged, leading to an explosion that killed Emily, which would be quite the dark backstory to join Talon in revenge against Overwatch. This actually plays well with how her Blink ability works in the Mirrorwatch event, where she take make more teleports at the cost of her health. And if it isn't obvious by her pose, she's sort of the Reaper equivalent.

Other Affiliation Changes

Genji and Symmetra have both landed themselves in Australia as Junkers

Kiriko and Hanzo have joined the Shimada's rival Clan, the Hashimoto.

Zen is part of Null-Sector this time as Z-EN Destroyer, with Ramattra taking his place as the monk who wanted peace between Human and Omnic.

==============================

{Changes to the story}

Of course with Affiliation changes, there are lore changes. Here are the main two that are most prominent.

LaCroix VS Amari

In canon Overwatch, Ana loses her eye after hesitating to shoot a brainwashed Lacroix turned Widowmaker. But if you noticed earlier, Arch-Commandant Ana doesn't wear an eyepatch. In Mirrorwatch, because of the shift in alignments, It's Widowmaker who loses an eye in the shootout and she has a cybernetic one to replace it.

Widowmaker VS Tracer

Back in the Alive Cinematic, Tracer fails to stop Widowmaker from assassinating the Omnic Monk and leader of the Shambali, Tekhartha Mondatta. But in Mirrorwatch, instead of Mondatta, Ramattra becomes Tekhartha of the Shambali Omnics and is assassinated by Tracer. And if one of her elimination lines against Tracer says anything, Widowmaker was the one who failed to stop the assassination.

So yeah, that's why I said Widowmaker is like the Tracer of Mirrorwatch, getting the most lore to pull from.

==============================

{More Mirrorwatch?}

There's definitely possiblity there could be more Mirrorwatch skins, if we go by an interview between Twitch Streamer Skiesti and Overwatch 2's Art Director, Dion Rogers. Vishkar Lucio, DJ Symmetra, Junker Winston, Overwatch Reaper, Talon Soldier: 76 were all ideas that were cut.

==============================

And that's Overwatch 2 Season 10's Mirrorwatch.

If people would be interested in me roleplaying as some of these alternate universe characters, or want to learn about some of the other Overwatch 2 Story Events, like Starwatch or Questwatch, let me know.

[professionalranter31]

The factions within Overwatch piss me off, not because they exist but because even in lore it doesn’t really feel like they’re used that often beyond Talon and Overwatch

Like with Mirrorwatch most of the skins are Talon because we have so many Overwatch heroes and so few Talon heroes that the distribution is this

MW! Talon Skins

Mercy (Mythic), Tracer (Legendary), Reinhardt (Legendary), Brigitte (Epic), Ana (Legendary), Zarya (Epic)

MW! Overwatch Skins

Doomfist (Legendary), Widowmaker (Legendary), Sombra (Epic)

Three skins for the MW Overwatch

Then you get into the distribution of the heroes between the roles

The Junkers have three Tank heroes (Junker Queen, Roadhog, Wrecking Ball) and one Damage hero (Junkrat) which is wildly uneven and despite the fact that the Junkers living in a literal wasteland is the perfect setting for a Support Hero we haven’t heard anything about a Junker Support coming in the future which I feel is dumb

Then with Blackwatch they have three Damage heroes (Reaper, Genji, Cassidy) and one Support hero (Moira [it might be two because there’s some hint that Mercy used to be the Blackwatch medic but I haven’t seen any lore material for that so I can’t properly say]) with no word of they ever had a Tank, which just feels odd

Then the Shimada clan having two Damage heroes (Genji, Hanzo) and one Support hero (Kiriko) and no Tank

The Deadlock gang only technically has one hero representing them but the other does technically still represent them even if he left (Ashe, Cassidy) with no Support or Tank heroes representing them

The Shambali only has one Tank (Ramattra) and one Support (Zenyatta) representing them with no damage hero

Vishkar also doesn’t have a Tank hero, the Horizon Lunar Test Subjects only have two representing them and both are Tanks, Oasis only has one hero representing them with Moira, the Inti are only represented with Illari (like are there seriously no other people in the OW world that would step up and help Illari defend their tribe she’s fucking 18 why does she have to defend them on her own!?), Venture is the only one representing the Wayfinders Society, Torbjorn and Brigitte are the only ones representing the Ironclad Guild with no Tank, and so on

If we had a campaign or something that helped expand on these factions more maybe I wouldn’t have these feeling but they keep introducing such interesting factions with the heroes and then just not expanding on them, hell some of them have been since day one like Vishkar and yet they don’t have a map representing them

I want more heroes that expand and introduce more factions and parts of the Overwatch world but I’d also like to know more about the factions we can actually play as and since we’re not getting any sort of campaign or solo hero missions we need heroes that can actually reveal more about the factions, especially ones that fall into roles that these factions don’t have heroes in

This was more of a rant than anything but let me know what you think

Also this would help with my idea of faction buffs but I’m too tired to talk about that
