TheMiBu Gaming: Overwatch (Open Beta) Episode 15 - D.Va Character Review
Welcome to TheMiBu Gaming channel.
During the Overwatch Open Beta I am trying to review all 21 available characters. I am not a professional FPS player, so if I am getting something wrong, you can leave your feedback in the comments.
Up in this episode: D.Va
D.Va is a former professional gamer who now uses her skills to pilot a state-of-the-art mech in defense of her homeland.
Twenty years ago, South Korea was attacked by a colossal omnic monstrosity that rose from the depths of the East China Sea. The massive, lumbering construct caused catastrophic damage to coastal cities before it was driven back beneath the waves. In response, the South Korean government developed a mechanized armored drone unit, called MEKA, to protect urban environments in future engagements with the omnic threat.
The government's fears proved to be well founded, as a disturbing pattern of attacks emerged. Every few years, the monstrosity would rise from the sea to assault South Korea and its neighbors. The omnic learned from these encounters, often reconfiguring itself in a different form and appearing with new weapons and capabilities. Each incident ended in a stalemate, with the monstrosity defeated but not destroyed.
As the omnic continued to adapt, it eventually disrupted MEKA's drone-control networks, forcing the military to place pilots in the mechs. Scrambling to find suitable candidates, the government turned to the country's professional gamers, who possessed the necessary reflexes and instincts to operate the mechs' advanced weapons systems. Top stars were drafted, including reigning world champion Hana Song, also known as "D.Va." Famous for her elite skills, D.Va was a fierce competitor who played to win at all costs, and she had a well-earned reputation for showing no mercy to her opponents.
Seeing her new mission as a game, D.Va fearlessly charges into battle alongside the rest of her MEKA unit, ready to spring to her nation's defense at a moment's notice. Recently, she has begun to stream combat operations to her adoring fans, and her growing following has turned her into a global icon.
D.Va is a Tank hero who relies mainly on her MEKA to obliterate enemies. Her MEKA comes equipped with Fusion Cannons which constantly fire without having to reload, though with the drawback of the MEKA having to move slower during use. In her first ability, D.Va utilizes her MEKA's Boosters to fly through the air, changing direction easily while knocking away any enemy heroes she slams into. Her second ability activates the MEKA's Defense Matrix, which shoots away any enemy projectiles in front of her. Her MEKA's ultimate, Self-Destruct, sets its reactor to violently explode while D.Va ejects, heavily damaging nearby enemies (and D.Va herself if she's not careful); however, this destroys the MEKA, forcing her to briefly battle on foot without much in the way of abilities (this also happens once the MEKA has taken too much damage). Fortunately, she has her Light Gun handy, allowing her to shoot at enemies at mid-range until her Ultimate, which is now Call Mech, is charged (this happens instantly after her MEKA explodes in the case of using Self-Destruct), at which point she can call down a shiny new MEKA to climb into.
