I am so happy this character isn't simply a condensation of every tired Scottish stereotype (alcoholic, "freedom", clans and castles, accentfunny). They got an actual Scotsman to play a modern Scottish character who speaks the proper dialect. The voice is so authentic that he sounds like he could be my neighbour. I am very excited.

This is what I feel was missing from a lot of the OW2 era characters (not all). This actually builds upon pre-existing lore and themes and moves the story forward. It doesn't feel like "Oh, I forgot to tell you Mei has a niece from space and Hanzo and Genji went to school with a superhero. By the way, Machu Pichu was actually Wakanda and now it's Atlantis." It feels like "The premise of Overwatch lightheartedly tackles the question of 'What if Superheroes and Villains were enlisted into assymetric war?' With different powers, ideologies and backgrounds, they react very differently. So, how about this perspective: what does a veteran and victim of this war do if Overwatch witholds Moira's "unethical" when it can save his life from torment?
First frame instantly showing him drinking irn-bru is great. For anyone unaware the orange can in his hand with the blue label is a Scottish soda pronounced Iron-Brew. I drink it all the time but i don't really know how to describe it. The liquid is the same vibrant orange as the can.

Nah. You people just love to jump to conclusions. His intro trailer was about the same as any other intro trailer given how long it lasted. But people will literally find anything to hate on

Yesterday, Hazard seemed boring in comparison to Susannah and Boomslang (thanks for the names for them and Jackdaw) Today, I can clearly see Hazard is finally another hero among the Tank characters, and is truly a force of rebellion.
@syphexlol Suzy is an omnic with a huge septum piercing and rose tattoos, and she doesn't have the lame stereotypical body type. Boomslang is a woman of color who has many piercings, dreadlocks, toxic tubes going in and out of her legs, and is named after one of the most deadly snakes. Hazard, originally, looked basic at some moments and like a humanized Chesnaught at others. His design has grown on me in the day since his reveal, but I still think he looks a little too clean. I would've liked to see him with a mohawk, and maybe some more piercings. Additionally, his weapon blends into him very much. The only other characters with weapons that are part of them are Doomfist, Orisa, Echo, Bastion, Lifeweaver, and Moira. Of these, they either don't have much of a weapon (LW, Moira, Echo), or it's visible enough (DF, Bastion, Orisa). Hazard has a good weapon, but it blends into his jacket a lot unless he spreads his arms out. Some color detailing would've helped. This isn't an argument BTW, I'm just pointing stuff out that I've noticed.
cant wait to hear his voicelines from when no ones on rhe payload or objective, "OI GET ON THE PAYLOAD YEA" "WHY WE JUST STANDIN' AROUND? GET ON THE POINT"
I love how his backstory is David Martinez but Scottish lol, people hate on his design but I think it really fits him now that the story is laid out. Can't wait to try him !
Beautiful voice acting, super stoked to try the character. I very much like how he's both in-between Overwatch AND Talon in regards to his stance in lore.
@@crimsonkarma13 its likely that ramattra transforming is unique to him, he uses nanites which do that just like with his staff and vortex, we have however seen other omnics that are his model (R-7000) in the origins videos and in his story intro we are show others too. this one has the same design as them so it is likely they are the same model. the base R-7000 probably cant transform but ramattra has modded himself to be able to.
Love that this is being normalized, having the va read over the comic origins. It’s like story time, but now I’m definitely loving this characters motivations
Overwatch never fails to get the best voice actors for the characters. Couldn’t imagine them having different voice actors. They all bring the characters to life.
The voice of Hazard is brilliant! You've chosen the perfect voice for him, his backstory is really cool too, his ideals and what he wants to do define who he is, and he is badass. Hope we see more Phreaks join Overwatch in the future.
FINALLY. Some deep, well written character lore showing the struggles that some humans can actually relate to. A cool and interesting character with a fun personality and resonating background. Is this the first step back into meaningful stories and characters? Are we returning to the LORE?! Please oh God please let the lore come back. Do that and bring back the loot boxes and I’m sure the game will be back.
Signed up to fight in the fourth corporate war with the enforcers and didn't have a trauma team card. Promptly went to zaun and joined silco and the maelstrom gang to get chromed.

This was great! Really enjoyed that backstory and plot for Hazard! Looking forward to see him gel among the other characters and for some badass skins to match.
Even if we don´t get cinematis anymore (or not as frequent) I enjoy those comics, too especially if the voice-actor of the newest hero is reading them. I´m eager to see what Hazard will be capable of.
Considering they were all laid off we're probably not going to see anymore. Blizzard should be ashamed of themselves for not simply giving the community what it wants. Good storytelling. Go watch the animated shorts, those at least make you feel something...
Sigh, i thought they are at least gonna spend extra budget next season since Marvel Rivals release next month DEAD WRONG. WE MUST BREAK THE BLIZZARD SYSTEM
Any doubts I had about Hazard just melted away with this video! I'm so excited, he's probably the newest character I've most been excited about lore wise since Ram
@@senor135 I think it is exactly her jet. She's not in the plane because she got lost in the time and space so that plane is flying without a pilot, which could be why they shot it down thinking it could be a terrorist plane since no one is responding to the radio.
to be honest in the first cinematic i was kinda surprised and didn't expect this type of voice but now i really grow to love it. i'm really hyped for hazard now
I already thought he was a cool character but I honestly like him more now, and I just wish there was a proper story to explore this even more cuz this is cool stuff! Good show ow team!
I thought for a moment that Tracer’s experimental jet flight caused his injuries and that would have been an insane event to have caused another hero to be born and imagine how their convos would have gone had that been the case! Would he be cool with it or blame her specifically? Would she feel guilty or find a kind of fellowship that they were both made from the same accident? That would have been cool but I am interested to see this storyline of injured soldiers turned freedom fighter by a system who sees people as numbers and found family tropes. Looks good Overwatch! Story wise that is, hope it continues being this engaging and hope he plays good too!
I also had this thought when watching it for the first time. It’s such a missed opportunity for connecting the character to previous history, but I also like how the actual story shows that Tracer’s accident wasn’t a one time occurrence; just one of the many, many disasters that forever changed everyday peoples’ lives.
What's she gonna do? Walk at me at exactly the same speed that I walk while slowly sucking the life out of my body?... Oh, that's exactly what she's gonna do isn't it.
If he doesn't say, "If you're in it with me, you're in it for life." When spawning in, especially after saying, it's "what he always says" to Suzy, i'm going to be so disappointed. Still gonna main him though. 👀
@@_-Bane-_Main He would have lost so much of it after the accident though. Not being able to workout at all for up to six months, muscles dwindles so quickly it's annoying lol.
I love the voice! 💙I'm not native English, but it's so fascinating to listen to accents like this. I'm happy for subtitles but also such a great voice actor reading it 🥰 The colors the Phreaks have are also neat. I feel like overwatch has lacked in color for a while, and personally i'm addicted to saturated hues like this. Love the theme! 🤘🏻🎆
Him keeping his little scruffy dog through everything he's been through makes me want to cry, it makes me so happy His belt buckle is even a dog, in-game
Loved the backstory for Hazard and can't wait to see how the gameplay will be for him! 🤩 Also 10/10 because Moira was shown in this story! Hunger for more lore that connects other characters to each other in this world is still true!
It's funny now to know that he's more against Overwatch than Talon. Just the moment when Morrison (Soldier:76) was doing a speech after the incident that turned him being on an hospital, you can feel how angry he was. Like he was saying to himself "Why are you doing a speech now after that much dead person bcs of you ?". Funny for me as someone like many other thinking that he was part of an experiment from Moira but actually not. I'm so much curious about his interactions with Overwatch more than with Moira lol.
THIS! This is what we want Blizzard, actual characters, actual story, actual building on the world and explaining his story better than anyone else so far. On the same level as Ramattra imo. This beats "people like me for my butt" aka, Juno.
You have my interest, this is actually gonna make me press the dusty Battlenet icon on my desktop and log on to Overwatch Nov 22 - it's been a whiiiiiiiiile let's just say Looking forward to seeing what he can bring to the table as a Tank!
bro this goes so hard, it's a shame overwatch doesn't care about lore anymore Yes I know this is *technically* lore but these are scraps, they give characters backstories then never expand on them again. Blizzard doesn't care on worldbuilding anymore, all they care about is getting money and giving Rein and Kiri 16 more skins per season (and before you day I'm biased, I'm a Kiri and Rein main)
It’s not that it doesn’t care about lore, they literally have no resources to continue it. Blizzard fired the entire lore team, short little comic books like this is all we’re gonna get for a while.
I hope him and Tracer have funny England and Scotland banter voice lines
Is the jet that hit the bulding not her jet?

That coudl be cool, but teh OW team doesn't know how to write good lore.
I also had this thought when watching it for the first time. It’s such a missed opportunity for connecting the character to previous history, but I also like how the actual story shows that Tracer’s accident wasn’t a one time occurrence; just one of the many, many disasters that forever changed everyday peoples’ lives.
Wait, it’s not tracer’s jet??? I was really hyped about it 😢
Would be unlikely it was Tracer's because this was during the time Soldier was still commander of Overwatch.
Bro found his chooms, and definitely gonna get a "I'm just built differnet" voice line
if orisa has one, he should lol
Stealing one of Moira's experiments... That's pretty dangerous.
I actually cannot wait to see what interactions are born from this.
What's she gonna do? Walk at me at exactly the same speed that I walk while slowly sucking the life out of my body?... Oh, that's exactly what she's gonna do isn't it.
Alright NOW I'm feeling it! this is a great backstory
I love the energy and personality the V.A is bringing to the role. Makes me wish the whole gang from OW1 was still touring & cutting up😊
2:50 I thought Ram was the last Ravager omnic left, who’s this fella?
Ravager like the Bastion model were mass produced, so there are still likely those kinds of models around.
He is not the last
When did he say he was the last Ravager?
All he said is that Omnics were slowly becoming an endangered race.
The panel says their name is Revel but other than that, they're just another model of ravager.
3:35 Kamala Harris?!
Didn't like the character before but this sold me. Excited to play Hazard now.
If he doesn't say, "If you're in it with me, you're in it for life." When spawning in, especially after saying, it's "what he always says" to Suzy, i'm going to be so disappointed. Still gonna main him though. 👀
Been a long time since I've been excited for a new character. Is this a completely new faction?
Definitely looked best as a teenager when he was walking out of the house.
I guess every meal after that was washed down with 40 protein shakes and a day of bench pressing buses
@@_-Bane-_Main He would have lost so much of it after the accident though. Not being able to workout at all for up to six months, muscles dwindles so quickly it's annoying lol.
Another thing he shares with David Martinez 😂
I love the voice! 💙I'm not native English, but it's so fascinating to listen to accents like this. I'm happy for subtitles but also such a great voice actor reading it 🥰
The colors the Phreaks have are also neat. I feel like overwatch has lacked in color for a while, and personally i'm addicted to saturated hues like this. Love the theme! 🤘🏻🎆
Bro got more content than venture before even playtest
I think venture was a filler character tbh
@@Ajsobrainsalotim pretty sure she is just a replacement for dps doom (uppercut ability, knockback melee)

@@harm0ny_deary me the imaginary character got their pronouns used wrong

Him keeping his little scruffy dog through everything he's been through makes me want to cry, it makes me so happy
His belt buckle is even a dog, in-game
Loved the backstory for Hazard and can't wait to see how the gameplay will be for him! 🤩
Also 10/10 because Moira was shown in this story! Hunger for more lore that connects other characters to each other in this world is still true!
It's funny now to know that he's more against Overwatch than Talon. Just the moment when Morrison (Soldier:76) was doing a speech after the incident that turned him being on an hospital, you can feel how angry he was. Like he was saying to himself "Why are you doing a speech now after that much dead person bcs of you ?".
Funny for me as someone like many other thinking that he was part of an experiment from Moira but actually not. I'm so much curious about his interactions with Overwatch more than with Moira lol.
Love that he's drinking iron bru at the start
Oh you ate this up👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾✨💖
Ngl all I can picture is Soap MacTavish from Cod in this video
David from cyber punk welcome back my beloved
Bro went to a ripperdoc
Cyberpunk ❤
THIS!
This is what we want Blizzard, actual characters, actual story, actual building on the world and explaining his story better than anyone else so far. On the same level as Ramattra imo.
This beats "people like me for my butt" aka, Juno.
I'M NOT GOING TO UNDERSTAND A THING THIS MAN SAYS BUT THAT'S OKAY BECAUSE I'M SO HYPED!!!! he seems so cool
This trailer confirmed to me that his design would be so much better if they kept his darker hair, can't wait for his banter with Moira though.
Dude that is voicing this hero has a cooler name than 99% of the roster
You have my interest, this is actually gonna make me press the dusty Battlenet icon on my desktop and log on to Overwatch Nov 22 - it's been a whiiiiiiiiile let's just say
Looking forward to seeing what he can bring to the table as a Tank!
Will Hazard have a voice line saying "Purple Burglar Alarm?"
I really hope the story time for new heros will continue. It's so amazing ^^
That ravager unit looks cool, Ram skin when?
Honestly, I’m all about the Cyberpunk influence. Untapped part of the Overwatch world. Love it
This is really awesome. I love the emotion you brought to the short
Literally David Martinez and I love it!
So basically Cyberpunk:Edgerunner.
Exactly what I thought of
Right
Edgeruners are mercenaries, he doesn't sound like a mercenary.
Overwatch is set 2077
hey google search phreak edging
The Hazard and moira voice lines are going to be crazy
The cyberpunk edge runners vibe this gave me. Man I loved it
Great story. Shoutout to the 3 cups of hot coffee and the waiting room at Mount Sinai Hospital.
bro this goes so hard, it's a shame overwatch doesn't care about lore anymore
Yes I know this is *technically* lore but these are scraps, they give characters backstories then never expand on them again. Blizzard doesn't care on worldbuilding anymore, all they care about is getting money and giving Rein and Kiri 16 more skins per season (and before you day I'm biased, I'm a Kiri and Rein main)
It’s not that it doesn’t care about lore, they literally have no resources to continue it. Blizzard fired the entire lore team, short little comic books like this is all we’re gonna get for a while.
We get it bro there’s comments like this every single hero trailer
It is litteraly lore that they just gave you.
Is this not lore?
What do you call this video? This is lore, mate.
Have to say, between Juno and Hazard, the writing team have really stepped up!
Choose overwatch. Choose life.
You making it sound like cult 😂
