"Because I am Illari, and I am the last child of the sun" ☀️💪
I like how the channel only favorites the most generic comments.
how did this get pinned? not in a rude way, more confused tbh
edit: im actually an idiot ☠️
@@E1Razur because she’s the voice actress not a random☠️
Gracias Andre por una hermosa interpretación de nuestra querida paisana
@@Owleroshes the va.
I like how she's the last child of the Sun because she killed all the other children of the Sun 💀
They are child of the sun and she went supernova
nice, you watched the video!
Yeah I'm sorry this backstory is borderline laughably funny who made this 😭 gamer guys are so easily impressed
At the end I was like, "...coz you killed em all!"
not impressed.
FR this is like the worst origin story XD I kill my people so im gonna leave them and play the hero , it kinda feel like that BRUH
She accidentally pressed Q in a peaceful game queue
Fr play of the game
Friendly normal hp
she went friendly fire,literal fire
😭😭
Her facial expression right after the explosion... whoever drew/animated this really nailed it.
1:24 reminds me of a lot of scenes from fire force
(for the initiated, it's a fantasy-steampunk (or is it nuclearpunk since they use nuclear?) manga in which they worship the sun god, but they also use nuclear plant to power their entire city, so what they worship is kinda accurate)
A very simple story which is kinda refreshing. We've been getting a lot of heavy hitters toward the setting lore of overwatch, so this is nice. She seems like she'll be good. 👍
i screen shotted it cause its funny
@@hamburbur9477 wow omgz you're so cool and quirky and unique
@@-Songbird ty😘🤪
Dont know if anyone noticed, but lw has a new line when pulling illari: "you dont have to do everything alone" which is lowkey wholesome
I noticed just last night! A LW saved me and said that
little does she know she did in fact have to do it alone
I just teared up a bit reading this GOD im so unwell
Illari: *straight up murdered her whole race*
Also illari: “… That doesn’t matter now”
I mean, theyre already dead, sooooo....
Does it reeeeaally matter now?
She didn't kill everyone, just the other Inti warriors in their headquarters who were gathered to watch her ceremony. The rest of her people lived in the city a little ways away (you can even see it in the scenes with her in the headquarter ruins). But even if she didn't kill her entire people, now she has to protect people who probably hate her for getting their family members who were other Inti warriors killed. Also you can see the city behind her in the very last scene.
@@hootax8980 Just to clarify, inti is sun in quechua, so the name "inti warriors" is basically the children of the sun or whatever she said
The world of Overwatch is so cool, they should make a game out of this!
I know right!
Eh bad idea, they might butcher it
boy, do I have news for you!
It would be great if that game had skill trees for a sense if progesssion too!
Yeah. Exactly one game. Not two.
How to become the last child of the sun:
1:Train
2:Train
3:Train
4:Train
5:Kill everyone from your tribe
6:End
Yeah. Like Darth Vader do 👍 lol

Lmaoooooo😭😭😭😭
It's good to know that the art, animation and sound teams still work hard to deliver us quality content.
the team that doesn't disappoint
gameplay-wise she's also pretty badass
Such surface lvl understanding of production
@@piusdoe8984yea it's right this thing is way to complex, it's a system, it's team work and a myriad of other things involved to make this happen
@@jujutsushiNever! NOT EVEN ONCE!
Part of me likes to believe that whatever happened with the machine actually wasn’t her fault and instead was the result of whatever experiment Signa was doing with gravity, causing some space shenagains that caused a rush of sunlight energy to flood into the momentary vacuum caused by his black hole gravity experiment, meaning that when activated, Ilari was filled with a huge burst of sun energy, could help interconnect the world and characters in a fancy way
It would be so interesting if sigma had a voiceline with illari on how they both harnessed the power of space (sigma - black hole, illari - the sun), and the cost of doing so.
Or about the melody she likes to hum. Maybe they get into a humming contest?
@@user-py1mf5su2h Ngl humming is the most basic thing they could have a voiceline for, when they literally have a thing in common which only they 2 in the world share (harnessing gravity and harnessing the sun)
@@ItzJupiter 6 months later, they literally have ZERO interactions lmao, no humming, no power of space, nothing. Kinda sad tbh
Yeah :( Really hoped for something but its alright.@@chara8074
Maybe she can make white holes 😅
Was not expecting her to destroyher home on accident, fantastic visuals as always.❤
Hope she learns that she never did anything wrong and what happened wasn’t her fault
XD Same, I couldn't help but burst into laughter, thinking to myself, "Did she genuinely kill every single one of her friends and family without any apparent reason?". I was thinking this animation was like a villain arc for her wanting to wipe out the whole town.
That took a huge turn. I still got whiplash
u think about it her power was a curse all along
@cultoosk nah she was just too overpowered and it's her people's fault for not knowing from the start she's a queen boss protagonist
To give you more lore about Peruvian culture and why this character nailes it
Our currency is literally named "New Sun". Lmao
@@dccopa13and the former currency was "Inti" which also means "sun" 🌞
Thank you for this.
I guess tht make sense on how some of her voiceline r also in Quechua, thts awesome. Never knew until now.
How do you pronounce Illari? She says her name at the end but it sounds different to how it's spelt.
Illari after witnessing the death of the other children of the sun : "There are days I will always remember..."
Announcer in the distance : DOUBLE KILL! TRIPLE KILL! QUADRUPLE KILL! QUINTUPLE KILL! SEXTUPLE KILL!
Blizzard has to be a master at manipulating people, in order to still have fans raving over this content like they haven't lied, scammed, silenced, and betrayed their way to be the worst name in gaming of all time.
Disgusting.
I know this is old, but I still feel like I should comment.
It's really easy to just paint a company like Blizzard as one huge monolithic consciousness that makes every decision. But the reality is that it's made up of many different teams with different goals, some of which don't even interact. All the cancellations and lies, all the money scams, all the mistreatment of the player base, are due to Blizzard executives hyperfocusing on profits. All the stories, the character designs, the cool event modes, are different teams who are working hard to bring us THEIR vision despite all the bad happening around them.
We can 100% condemn the Blizzard higher-ups for all the bad that they've done, and we can simultaneously celebrate the artistry and hard work of the creatives who are legitimately passionate about their art.
shoutout to the lore writers and artists working on this game, they're carring this corporate shell of a game on their backs. the most consistent source of quality to come out of blizzard
@@1MAGedits😂😂😂
Yup, couldn't agree more
They absolutely are, but I just wish they would give more lore for what happens in the present universe and not everyone's backstory. There hasn't been much to move the story forward since the Zero Point cinematic and definitely wasn't anything before then.
@@Cybrtronlazrdawg we just got story missions set in present time.
@@heyheyhello3733 Sadly, they arent. The Null Sector Invasion already happend, one way to confirm this is ingame through the logs when you go into missions. There you'll see a recap of everything and see that the Null Sector Invasion actually already happened
While playing her I was thinking how she’s boring and had no personality. But then I listened to her voice lines and thought maybe there’s a reason why she sounds monotonous, or very serious about everything. This origin story confirms that. ☺️
I wish she wasn't so abrasive and had more than her guilt to contend with; something so nuclear as the power she holds would definitely feel much more of a constant weight on her shoulders than just the one time she lost control of it.
@@Brown95Pshe really just hit everyone with the power of the sun, honestly might be the strongest character r
@@partystarter8041No one is on Sigma's level. It's not even close
@@caicarney5614 Sigma's too sigma
@@caicarney5614 I would say she is definitely in the top three. Sure, Sigma could destroy the whole planet if he became unstable, but having the power of the sun is also a huge deal, especially when compared to most heroes, who have no such supernatural abilities, but merely their weapons
She needs more lore desperately I can’t wait to learn more about her
She hit them with that reverse Pompeii 😂
That's an epic origin story. Kudos
These gotta be bots I swear
@@sanxeaupe802why? It was actually a good story

@@RvsN-TacO😏

I think she could tie into the next short possibly seeking out Zenyatta to find inner peace with her grievous mistake and once she gets there she finds Talon swarming the temple. Maybe she’d help him escape and that’s how she becomes one the Overwatch members! I’m excited I LOVE her deign and gameplay I’m hoping for a bit more personality tho she seems to have a potential soft side and I’d love to see more of it
@@seanewt7947 ooooooo I love this! Awesome theory!
@@seanewt7947no its because she had some like hidden power that nobody really understood the extent of so she could harvest more of the suns power than others
Thats also why her ultimate is reminiscent of that explosion
she literally didn't do anything she didn't do anything aside from be born weird
Bro at this point zenyatta teaching everyone
"I still don't understand what I did wrong. But it doesn't matter anymore."
I sense no character development here. First Overwatch Origin Story that failed to make me care about a playable character.
Well what can she do
Nah the character takes after blizzard
This is a cool backstory, looking forward to seeing how her character develops.
I hope that she at some point of the story forgives herself for it. She seems to be a character that loves helping others but the burden of her "mistake" prevents her of showing her kind, caring side and makes her look rather cold and serious. That´s a thing I love about the character design in Overwatch, that you can comprehend what those heroes must feel if you are/were in a similar situation.
The kind of power she has that could nuke a whole city through one "mistake" should also be an extra weight on her shoulders, and one that couldn't be so easily left behind after forgiving herself to boot.
She already firgsvd herself she said it doesn't matter anymore
@@Sen.100 Saying something doesn´t matter and forgiving aren´t the same. It could only mean that she doesn´t want to think about it anymore but still sees it as her mistake.
Just hanzo 2.0 but by nuking her home instead of almost killing her brother
@@Hoodini2253 You can´t compare those two because she didn´t intend to kill her people. Hanzo might didn´t want it but he chose to fight Genji in a battle of life and death.
Thanks for all the love on the artwork! We had a great time working on this project! ❤
We'll be posting the illustrated stills on our ArtStation page soon... stay tuned! 🚀
Who are you
@@Tstormerthey appear to be an art company of some sort based in the UK. Despite their claims, from their channel I can't find any proof at the time that show that they worked on Overwatch animations
Edit: Found their external links, based on their posts they do appear to work on Overwatch animations, among animations for other games
Rofl. Not this.
You make my fav hearthstone skins
Seems like the real messup was when they decided to make a custom of gathering all their members around a device with the potential to go off like a big bomb.
No matter the amount of security to prevent someone from messing with it, the ultimate defense against such disaster is to put such a device behind a lot of armor, and to never, ever, gather the entire group in one place (after all someone might just bring a bomb).
it's giving "my oc I created when I was 14" lmao
That's like the whole cast bruh
I’ve been having a blast with her her damage feels so nice
Blast💀
So did her friends
She feels so complete to me
@@mosely25Me too. I bought her golden gun so fast bcuz I love her kit and had a feeling she would be my new main. Sadly they will prob nerf her into the ground cuz I have the worst luck.
@@Tyr_Gas loll i gotta get like u n play more comp
And yah sadly they prob will. But shes wayyyy better to me than live weaver. Min i played him im was like "nope!" Not for me. I hope they dont nurf her but you're right prob will.
Bruh ain’t no way she merked her entire clan because she blew up smh
Honest mistake, happens all the time😅
She was watching itachi on her off time
play of the game type shi
Lore: one blast and all the people were dead.
Game: Take a nap while her gun charges to deal tickle dmg (headshot for less than Kiriko at much lower speed)
Would love to see Cusco (I'm assuming that's the city here) as a playable map. The art here is absolutely stunning.
I think Illari is from Arequipa, that's what I heard
Waaaay late response, but her bio says she’s from Runasapi, probably a new hidden city in Overwatch’s Peru
I liked the part where the power of the sun evaporated the promised PvE experience from blizzard servers
Bro💀💀
I have to say that I prefer the way they teased Ramatrra, first the lore and then a couple days later the gameplay. For me at least that build up a lot more hype than the way these last two were released, since you already know what they are all about and can then speculate about their abilities.
I think they rushed her out a little because she got leaked
@@neurozoned probably
They had us speculating about Ramattra since 2019 with the Storm Rising mission in that year's Archive's event. I do like when a character is added and we already have some context for them. OW plot/story/worldbuilding has a ton of loose ends, and the game itself doesn't allow for much character development, so I'm not sure how far we will get to know about Illari. Especially considering her entire community is... dead, as we see in this Origin Story. I do wonder what else we can learn about her.
Overwatch's origin stories are well done and not simply copies or versions of each other. Very nicely done, even if they are tragic beginnings. That path of a true Hero or Villain, for that matter, are never simple.
Don't ever stop doing these because they're AMAZING💚
Okay, I have a couple of questions:
1. What kind of society is this that has never been mentioned in the lore? Is it some kind of hidden tribe?
2. What is this power of the Sun that warriors use? Another magic, like Shimada's dragons?
3. Why is Illari "the last"? It seems like her house is alright, and nothing prevents them from recreating the... um, the army of this tribe?
Maybe it was forbidden to make more for there was no way to know yet if it could happen again.
In the voice lines it hint that because of the explosion, some of the blueprints and knowledge of the technology to create more was destroyed. Her voiclines also hint that when she became a nuke, she accidentally wiped out everyone in the room. Including the other warriors. So now she is the last one.
re 3rd question: she blew up the chamber that gives the sun tech(?) along with everyone else.
Well if we're to take the story at face value the technology is *highly* efficient solar energy which... well, _harnesses the power of the Sun._ It's not Dyson Swarm/Sphere levels of efficient, but definitely enough to do justice for that phrase. So, no, not magic. Just really, *really* efficient solar power technology- probably (if not most likely) merged with biotechnology for those with high compatibility.
I guess that answers question 2.
For question 3: Again, if we're taking the story at face value, I'm guessing she had too much potential? Maybe her compatibility for the Solar tech was too high and the settings weren't prepped properly because they overlooked something crucial (I don't think it's her fault, because people with survival's guilt blame themselves a lot, it's pretty sad). Anyway, lack of info ---> not enough (proper) prep time, the right settings, or caution on the scientists/engineers/whoever's side----> Transformer gives her the power (Play the He-Man music!), but compatibility is over 100%! "Oopsie, we weren't ready for tha-" ---> Cue the Chernobyl-style explosion fueled by too much solar energy in her ignition and - Presto! Breakthrough in science! Oh, everyone's dead except her... *Whoops!* 😳 (By the way, she left *no evidence?* no charred bodies at all? Impressive, in a dark way - which is morbidly funny due to the context.)
Look on the bright side, newbie- everyone has a _certain_ weakness! Superman has Kryptonite, Batman has trauma, and you have Survival's Guilt! (You better hope the enemy can't defend themselves verbally as they do physically!)
Not sure for the first question though. It could be the Overwatch universe's version of Wakanda for all we know.
@@phoenixfyre365I also think it's remarkable that not a trace of a soul was left behind. She quite literally vaporized all of them. Impressive and also terrifying.
Man the Overwatch team never dissapoints with these lore vids. They are so well made and its so easy to get emotionally involved in this fictional world, how do you do it guys?! Amazing!
How much they paid you?
@@XUIWnothing they are dope
kiriko....
Talon had something to do with Illari's ascension being sabotaged, even more given the fact the other corporation devoted to light-related technology is Vishcar Corporation, led precisely by a Talon headmaster.
Overwatch team never failed to deliver top tier content of stories.

It's nice to have a character that has an actually good backstory and personality. Looking forward to seeing her narrative development.
what personality? 🤣
Sigma? Hello???
This backstory is anime protagonist cliche.
This clown here talking as if most of the roster wasn't top tier already.
@@makianasilvait it’s cliche why do people like stories like this?
As a support main, she will definitely be my new favourite ☀
The part of the ost at 1:54 to the end is absolutely BEAUTIFUL
Inti warriors name comes from Inti, the sun god from Inca mithology and nowadays the flags of Uruguay and Argentina have a sun for Inti.
I really wish one day Overwatch devs can add Runasapi, Illari's home, as a map to the game. 🌞
it's kind of destroyed now though...
@@Jone_V They may add it, and only reason I say may, is if they ever decide to pursue how her home got destroyed (maybe it wasn't her fault, etc.)
@@Jone_Vhey to be fair so is junker town
So about that Runasapi map...
I really can't wait to see how she and so many others will fit into the story mode. Cuz ngl right now she seems the least connected to anyone or anything.
I like that she doesn't really connect to anyone. Because when they do connect to someone else the new character's personality always has to kinda fit with the character their connected too. Which almost always feels like it limits the character's gameplay and interactions.
@@omarririttenberg6038 true, but it will also be interesting to see how she fits. I definitely don't think she's gonna be all buddy buddy with Overwatch, but she'll probably have to work with them to defend her home from either Talon or Overwatch.
I agree, the new heroes are getting even more ridiculous in terms of their lore background. Her character feels out of place from the overwatch world and this origin story didn't help much connecting it. They are moving from futuristic science tech to fantasy and I am not sure I like that.
my dude, theyre literally using technology to harness the suns energy. Solar panels are not fantasy.@@davidpodeszwa7010
@@davidpodeszwa7010i mean illari is still tech based (fantasy tech but it’s still tech) the only ones who have true magic are genji, hanzo, and kiriko.
Woah, they made a backstory for a hero where they're responsible for destroying something that was once great. It sounds a bit like Blizzard at first, except this character actually seems interested in putting in the work to make things better again.
That is the most anime backstory ive ever heard of💀
Tragic, badass, yet optimistic. Enjoying this hero so far 😌.
how is she optimistic? None of her lines have any energy or personality in them at all.
XD ☠
@@gamingbean6440she literally screams face the sunrise bruh i get hyped as
@@gamingbean6440She is fighting because she hopes to live out the legacy of all those who died in her homeland. She's pained and stoic, but she's still internally optimistic. Optimistic doesn't mean lighthearted.
See I agree with the first person and I know someone is gonna get the wrong idea over this but there are actually three characters who seem to be like that (excluding Widowmaker who has a reason) but Sojourn, Sym and now Illari are just poor. They are so... boring. Design is ok at most but their personality, story and character are about as interesting as a blank piece of paper is to someone that can't draw. This one is probably the worst there is since her tragedy is just laughable. If it wasn't for Bap, Sombra or Lucio, I'd assume they were just filling their minds with this idea that darker skin tone characters should be more serious to say the least. Doomfist is a bit like that too but I think the difference is just that he has that "evil leader" feel nailed so perfectly. I have nothing against making characters like this but seeing them do it so often not just here but other games too is just getting old. At least make more dark skin tone female characters that have some kind of personality before adding this serious stuff so much.
blud thinks she’s Oppenheimer
Junkrat: *God I wish that were me*
So she's a Krytonitian that sun bathes with Super Saiyan Hair
She looks cool, wish I could pick her before someone instalocks her before I’ve even loaded in
Right 🤣
If I see someone instalock her I just leave the game and try again. But to be honest it's annoying how people do that
no limits
After a 15min queue optimally for optimal salt levels
Give it a week and it'll be easier to play her
Thank you, Overwatch Story Team! This was lovely
Okay this might be one of the best back stories yet. Please blizzard just make a show
Illari is also angram for Liar Liar which Blizzard is very frequently known for
Illari es lo que necesita nuestro sufrido Perú en la realidad! 😢🇵🇪
Espero que la situación allá se mejore, desde Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
what this meant to meant in english pls

@@user-ic6vq1gm1v our country is a living meme actually, but is not a funny meme tho.
She has such a unique backstory If anyone should get there own animated short next it should be her.
Uhh, no. There are far more interesting characters that have gone years without even appearing in a cinematic.
@@Owlerotrue literally can’t stand these people saying “she has the best backstory ever and personally too” 💀
No, give Mercy a short first!!
Nobody's backstory can compare to Sigma's it's not even close
@@iamwhoiam7887Ain’t no way mercy deserves the next animated short when sigma is around. He’s a far more interesting character.
Out of all the new heroes from Sojourn to Illari, I think she's the most "Overwatch-feel like" hero in Overwatch 2. I love her healing powers, her character design, her color scheme and her personality.
I don't expect her backstory to be told in OW2, but it would be nice to see it.
the twist?? omg i was not expecting that at all, amazing work
she blew everyone up, so random
"but it doesn't matter anymore, because now I have cool factor" lololool
Change my mind: Her ult isnt a support ult
I think the idea is that it allows her dps teammates to easily finish off the enemies. So she isn't supposed to be the one to activate the explosions, her team is.
It depends on what you think counts as a support ability. It's similar to zen's discord orb, is that a supportive ability?
My favourite part about this update is when Illari used her ultimate and shouted ‘Face the budget cuts!’, then proceeded to lay off all the PVE development team
She might be a good pair with lifeweaver (light/sun)
That could be nice if she, Lifeweaver and Symmetra repair that machine so they could create new children of the sun.
no wonder she's so aloof and serious in her voice lines! poor girl, she's so scared to hurt others like that again
"scared to hurt others"
* literally uses her sun powers to hurt others *
@@Owlero Afraid to hurt more innocents to be precise.
That is why her ult is the only support ult that in a way is so different from other supports. She puts pressure on the enemy supports and enables friendly high burst damage dps. Plus she has the fastest healing in the game up to 120health per second(not counting bionade effect + any healing) showing how much she bursts in both healing and damage just like how energetic a star/the sun is
@@Owleroyeah that’s why she’s scared what do you not understand
Afraid to hurt others again, meanwhile she’s also the best support for teamwiping even by herself if given the right opportunity lmao.
But all jokes aside, I do think Illari is a really great character. I was waiting for a hero like her, a support with hitscan and great damage potential while still having good heals. I say this as a Ana main, but I think I’ll pick her up too now!
MAKE ALL HEROS THIS GOOD WHEN THEY DROP
I like how her default voice line is “forgiveness is earned”, makes me think that she’s talking to herself and finally forgives herself for what happened when she was younger
This was easily one of the best origin stories it was so simple and good.
Glad this came out, I love her design but did not have a lot of knowledge of her goals and past. Now that I do, it makes me really enjoy this character and excited to see how she interacts with the cast
She has a pretty sad voice line with mei about people dying
art team will never disappoint🙏🙏🙏
I like her a lot already, her origin was well done as well. I wonder what went wrong. Also, I know she’s supposed to be the last, but id love to eventually see another person from her culture. It’d be a shame to leave her as the sole character with such an interesting techno sun magic thing lol.
This is like if Aang was the last airbender because he helped the fire nation facilitate the destruction of the airbenders...
I like that she's not the typical "oh no i killed everyone oh no i'm such a bad person and should have just died", instead she continues to fight!
I mean it's incredibly realistic to have survivor's guilt though
Fight what, and why? Like I feel like that needs to be explained
@@calus_bath_waterIn the cinematic, its shown that the warriors helped protect their people against he Omnic Crisis. Chances are, she's also taking to fight to protect others.
Well, it's kinda more typical that she does fight, also kind of makes the survivor's guilt pointless if she just has it and it has no effect on her character. So why did they even add it?
A very simple story which is kinda refreshing. We've been getting a lot of heavy hitters toward the setting lore of overwatch, so this is nice. She seems like she'll be good. 👍
Welp Basically Talking About✊🏾 Ppl As A Collective “ Children Of The ☀️ “
Amazing origin story
You didn’t even watch the video 🤔
Finally, another Origin Story that is as good as Sigma's from four years ago! I nearly cried in just under two minutes. The OW team's peak is the highest in gaming.
It is a very good backstory but let’s not kid ourselves. Sigma’s backstory is better than most of their animated shorts even.
@@Ghazannn VIOLENCE!!!
it ain't even close to sigma
You’re dreaming if you think this is as good as Sigma’s
Bro said he cried😂😂😂😂
I just finished watching the lore playlist and this in absolutely blown away and I will be playing this character
Instant chills, amazing
I can't wait to play her! I already thought she had a great character design but this origin makes me even more excited. It's also great to see a Peruana & person of Incan descent in the spotlight!
Praise the sun!!
If only 1/8 of the care that went into this video went into the actual game.
“Burning brighter than a supernova!”
Sigma 💀💀💀
i like how dark this story is particularly the part where she feels resentful for the deaths she caused of her own people. Really good origin story
Was she resentful though? She moved on pretty quick tbh. Accidently kills whole clan then says oh I'll make up for it.
@@zxslayerzxz8532 in her interactions like with Mei, we see she’s definitely not over killing her people
@@zxslayerzxz8532 thats what i was thinking too but maybe its just the voice actor?
@@zxslayerzxz8532 That's also true which is why I think they need to make more in depth videos about every hero in the game so we can know the full story. We need more lore, it's the reason why I fell in the love with the game in the first place.
@@sugawaraaa9167I’ve noticed she sounds quite guilty an sad tbh
This is a great origin story, can't wait to see how it interacts with the rest of the world/heroes!
Overwatch lore never misses. Been playing the heck out of Illari, Lifeweaver, and Sojourn so far in S6.
Blizzard:Gives us a mystery behind her awakened explosion.
Also Blizzard: Proceeds to entirely gloss over it.
Like what? Couldn't we get something like someone behind the scenes trying to sabotage or get their hands on such a power because of how useful it is?
Honestly the last couple of characters have been lacking in quality of writing. Rammattra was the last time the blizzard writers put any effort into a character origin story.
They really just downplayed someone who accidentally wiped out their own entire tribe
This story is much better than the Lifeweaver's one. Good job!
i love the lifeweaver one he just didnt have that tragic of a backstory which isnt always necessary
@@rainbowpuppet77
Not just that, I just don’t understand Lifeweaver’s concept at all. Biolight? So he makes plants out of hard light and that’s somehow supposed to fix nature? Are we supposed to believe that an animal eating holographic plants will get the same nutrients? What if the animal walks too far from the light generator? Will its stomach empty?
@@rainbowpuppet77 Brigitte is the least tragic character.
Wait so the guy who can make regenerative biomatter out of light is too weird to get but the girl who can harness sunlight to heal isn't to you?

@@VirixPhiliashe killed everyone but it doesn’t matter anymore because I’m the last child of the sun??? Like what?
I like the looks of this new character. Her backstory reminds me of Grimstroke from Dota 2, except Illari didn't mean to sabotage her own ascension. Very nice.
Canon Illari: has the power of a god rivaling that of Sigma, blows up like a nuke.
In-Game Illari: haha funny fly and shoot. You need heal? I give turret only to me and place infront of enemy. FACE THE SUNRISE
This update in general is a step in the right direction for Overwatch, but Illari in particular really is a cool character; one of the best they've made so far in my opinion. She has a cool design, story, and fits right into the cast. 10/10
I think she rather fits into lol than into ow lmao.
There's a huge gap between the artistic side of this franchise and everything else. The storytelling is a 10 but everything else is in the worse state ever.
The update is a step back. The character is a just a common w for the art and story board team.
We really need more fleshed out cinematic experiences from OW. You guys have top tier stories and animation, just give us more! OVERWATCH MOVIES PLEASE!
Be careful what you wish for, when we asked for that with tf2 we got Emesis Blue
Blizzard trying not to make the most overpowered broken gut wrenching hero to ever exist: impossible
She is the most powerful support hero I have even seen, the glaring luminous energy weapon make everyone in the game blind, and the ultimate can make a numerous damage from explode one after another😭
she's the most main character a main character can get
anime backstory fr
@@christurner6330 she destroyed her own clan because she was too powerful, so shonen of her
