Cool on Tracer being LGBT. Wasn't expecting that. I knew they were going to reveal one of the characters as LGBT soon, but I thought they were going to throw shippers a bone and make Pharmercy an actual thing.

Speaking of which, how did Pharmercy even get started? They don't seem to have any in game dialogue with each other that is romantic in sense, or have any interaction in the comics whatsoever. Did the entire ship set sail just because they make a good team gameplay wise? Because if so, that's pretty weak. I'd be like saying Reinheart and D.VA make a good couple because they're ults work well together.

Mostly gameplay specific since they can be a pretty good combo when paired together. They even have a brawl based on that combo.

 

[Diablohead]

The fuck is wrong with all of you? Is this all Overwatch fans talk about?

 

[kewlmyc]

Nah, rein and ana together because of nano rein.

....fair enough. Though there's actual in game dialogue supporting this. Can't say the same for any other paring in the fandom.

 

[pvpness]

Dope comic. Creepy Reaper being creepy. Is Pharah having dinner with a one-armed dude? Who's that?

I mean, have people forgotten TF2 already? Pharah/Mercy is just the new Medic/Heavy.

We need casual skins for everyone. Reinhardt in a cable-knit sweater and loafers, Torbjorn in shorts and a t-shirt, Pharah wearing her jammies, etc.

Reinhardt and Pharah wouldn't work due to hitbox reasons unfortunately; shame because the latter desperately needs a good new Legendary skin instead of just the "different colour armour; weird-looking face" thing we've got now.

 

[Village]

Watch tho,

Watch. Overwatch

Ana is better off ulting genji, 76, or Reaper now.

Look.

Sometimes you gotta do it for the love.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

No, Blackwatch would be Vigía Negra or something similar

Check the title of my post

So, can we talk about the catiurrel? (tiger-cat-squirrel hybrid near Torb's children.)

Bring it into the game, Blizz. Do the right thing. I want to pet the kitty.

 

[Shard]

Torb is trending now, just thought you all show know this.

 

[Data West]

Boostio is the only Ana boost

Huh never noticed the hybrid tiger cat squirrel. Interesting.

Yesssssssss

 

[OVDRobo]

I'm glad Blizzard decided to give an under-represented community some representation, particularly with such a prominent character. Also glad that they decided to give Tracer an out-of-game girlfriend since it adds a bit of depth over everyone on the cast being in a relationship with one another.

I'll never understand shipping communities, though.

'Genji sent Mercy a letter so he must be in a relationship with her. I can't wait for Mercy players in game to pocket me as Genji as a result of this'

'Pharah had best not be on a date with that dude in the comic. Maybe he's her father'

The Tracer stuff is noteworthy, but the rest kinda... doesn't matter. Guess people'll do what people do, though. It's nice that people are passionate about something, I suppose.

Sad mini-Reaper gave me a chuckle, at least.

half of my twitter - tracer is gay asf cool
other half - lmao torb's pullout game is terrible

Time for a restock of Tracer statues. I want one.

Catiurrel.

Ok that's enough of those forums for today...

Yet another fictional woman that wouldn't fictionally fuck him. Poor guy

 

[Im_So_Pringles]

Cool comic. I love little character building things like these.

 

[Grisby]

Just can't help but feel Reaper constantly has Linkin Park playing in his head.

 

[Trey]

More boost for the Luc god.

Nah, old school

Just johnny cash ( it would be thematically accurate )

Pretty much.

 

[Head of Vengarl]

That was very sweet.

 

[Bear Force One]

so tracer was the lezbo they were talking about awhile ago

also lol junkrat and roadhog are at luna park, apparently that place is still a thing in overwatch

How about you don't use lezbo in your posts?

 

[Plum]

I doubt any of the female cast of the game would want to get with that guy.

And how does one "fictionally" fuck someone? I'm confused here.

 

[Trickster]

Any good tumblr meltdowns over how this messes with the established fan ships?

 

[Grisby]

Yeah. You're probably right. Cash is the man.

Spoiler

I listened to LP in high school. I liked them.

This is a problem a group of friends jokingly had when trying to define the term " double sex"

He may not be a smart man, but he knows what love is.

and I think my head is meltin'

 

[Anbec7]

Hanzo needs that as a sking blizzard!!

 

[frontovik]

Daww,so cute.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

Love it.

I suppose so many here are sad/mad at so many fanfic pairings just broken with a comic, but i like my canon things.
I actually like they chose someone from outside for Tracer instead of another hero in the game, a little Supes+Lois scenario there, and Im a sucker for those. Also cute pairing.

The Winston part was also great.

Blizzard forums is amazing right now. Don't pass up the fun.

Haven't searched but I'm already annoyed at the people complaining how revealing Tracer to be homosexual was a safe choice and not surprising. Please. We should be over the moon that a character, a major one at that, is representing the LGBTQ community and instead we have people bitching "oh they took the easy way out" "pandering to males cause she's hot". Fuck outta here with that nonsense.

The Roadhog circumcision thing in that forum post is pretty transparently anti-Semetic, right
