So we assembled 22 of our best writers and set them to work—a writer to jump into the skin (or robotic shell) of each character. The result is 22 odes. You can use the “Overwatch odes” tag to leaf through them all, or use the handy list at the bottom of this post. /// For real, th - Author: Levi Rubeck - Tags: News, overwatch, overwatch odes, zenyatta, #wp, #wp-post, #Import 2024-07-26 09:39 *We love* Overwatch*.

Comparatively, the two playable Omnic characters are the most effortlessly rad of the group, even though we are constantly reminded in backgrounds and vocal quips that the Omnics were bad news, not to be trusted. the embodiment of “be cool” Though I have much respect for Bastion’s bird fondness, my man/bot Zenyatta is the stylish and super-chill [Sakamoto](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpgApmZi7dg&ref=killscreen.com) of this game. He is the embodiment of “be cool,” never getting flustered while hovering around with nimble poise and deceptive lethargy. Zenyatta lives in the danger zone—he’s on fire the second he wakes up, zapping discord orbs to increase damage in the streets and zipping healing harmony orbs in the sheets. Zenyatta shreds tanks to ribbons, can waltz with grace no matter the partner, and passes out puns and koans like full-sized candy bars on Halloween. ![Zenyatta](https://storage.ghost.io/c/25/84/2584b75d-4bd6-4cce-8259-f1d1c65abbb5/content/images/previously/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/zen.jpg) But Zenyatta is blindingly effervescent when bringing out the best of his team, handing out kills with a distant nod and playing medic from the shadows. But that doesn’t mean he can’t take center stage when necessary, because when this titanium monk invites you to gaze into the iris, things are gonna get transcendent. /// ## **Offensive Heroes** **Genji** – [Genji is with you](https://www.killscreen.com/genji-is-with-you/) **McCree** – [Who you kidding?
