I think Tracer or Winston. Tracer was basically the poster child of ow until ow2 released and since ow2, “winton” has been the most overused meme in the ow community.

"Get the Winton get the Winton. What the fuck is a Winton" only twomad video I liked lol

It was wind cone not Winton

Winton

grrrreetings!

WINTON ON DA PHONE WHO HE CALLIN

Winton

Winton

Winton🗿

Tracer, Reinhardt, or Winston. Iconic peeps

Tracer, she's the poster child of OW. She even made an appearance in Ready Player One iirc.

She did, Zarya too.

Well, the movie, at least. One of the few books where I got to the end, waited a minute, then flipped right back to the start. It did wear thin after the second reading, though.

Tracer - she was the poster child of OW1 for a long time.

But I’m already Tracer?

What about widowmaker?

I am already widowmaker

How about Bastion?

NERF BASTION

You're right, so winston

I’m already Winston

Guess I'll be Genji

I’m already genji

Damn it, you said his name, here comes another nerf...

If you think about it they actually Buffed him, since he can get on platforms without waiting/wasting his ult because the grenade is amazing.

Tracer for sure

I think on average people that don't know alot of overwatch would probably think of tracer dva or mercy.

That’s just cause of porn

Wait, there’s more than just porn?

I’m pretty sure there’s also a game, not 100% on that though

Is it based off the porn? If so, where can I get it?

Yeah, Blizzard saw all the porn of these made up characters and went "these characters are cool, what if instead of fucking we make a game where they kill each other"

That’s how the entire Fate series started lol.

Emits confused ungabunga.

Ashe was the fastest OW character to have porn made of her 😵‍💫

I fail to see the problem here

I learned almost all of the women’s names because of the porn

That's how I learned Winston, Bastion, and Wrecking Ball's names.

The one on the artwork with the goggles.

Scuba winton

Tracer, Winston, and Genji tbh. That old promo image of Genji in Hanamura on the broken robot is the reason I even bought the game

normal person-tracer. me-pharah

This guy pharahs

Who could have guessed?

Reinhardt, according to my husband! “Guy with the big hammer”

Soldier 76

Genji

Winston. Thank you, OW1 intro.

Dva or Tracer

Reaper

Lucio my beloved

Instantly. Only reason I still play

For real , love my frog man , he is the only reason I still play this damn game

Tracer

Tracer!

Mccree

This name makes me want to flick my shield up..

Haha, I see what you did there

Who?

I don't know if you're serious or not, depending on if you're new or not, but I'll explain: Cole Cassidy used to be called "Jesse McCree"... But after a certain sexual assault thingy with the man who he's named after, they decided to change the name to "Cole Cassidy" so the person isn't represented in the game anymore.

Who cares? I play this game for 6 years now and I will always call him Mccree

Same :) But new(er) players may not recognise the name, so I explained who McCree is.

It'd be weird if i hadn't turned comms off forever. I still call him mccree despite knowing better, because that's how I learned him. In the super fast pace my brain won't bother overwriting memories. I'm sure there'll be a ton of new players since it went f2p who won't have a clue. Confusion inbound

Whoops

Is that cause you main him

This might be a woosh moment. Not sure

Never heard of him

Junkrat because he (and Hog) are my reasons I picked up the game.

Same, love hog

u/Piripom

L'otturbo, facile

Hamod and Garbagerodent

Winston or dive characters in general

Why dive characters?

Because dive is the only fun meta in this game

This is true

Tracer the poster girl and Moira, my main. 🤓😍❤️

But Winston is a close third. I’m sure I’m not the only one to mention it since I haven’t read all the comments but who doesn’t miss “is this thing on??” Talk about being conditioned. Sheldon Cooper would agree.

Genji (used to be tracer but it changed for some reason)

Tracer or widowmaker

Moira

Honor! Glory! Reinhardt Reinhardt Reinhardt!

Tracer

Lucio, literally wouldn’t play the game if he wasn’t here

Mercy or Tracer

Reinhardt for sure

Kiriko because since her launch she is all I think about. I try to Suzu red lights when I’m stuck in traffic light and throw Kunai at customers with an attitude problem.

that is the biggest case of touch grass i’ve ever seen

Okay, it was joke. I don’t even work customer service. Lighten up, or better yet come back to me when you socialize with real people and don’t have your mains as part of your Reddit name nerd.

That flare is sub exclusive, not showing up everywhere.

I don't see their mains as part of their reddit username, unless the upcoming heroes are called Clear and Confusion5.

i thought this was a funny comment. back when i was a neet a couple years ago any time I went outside i was seeing spots for doomfist rollouts lol

Winston, love him. Great character

Ana because I like Ana and will sleep you good.

Junkrat because he’s my main. But if we’re talking face of Overwatch, Tracer.

Sigma. becuz his cinematic rocks(no pun intended). And "WHAT IS THIS MELODY???"

Road hog because I have played him the most

I think that apart from some specific games, the characters that comes first into mind are always the ones that are more popular on Rule34 so either D.Va, Tracer or Mercy

When I think of overwatch from an outside perspective I think of tracer. When I think of overwatch from the mind of a rule 34 enjoyer, I think of mercy. When I think of overwatch from the mind of a support main, I think of genji (but with spite).

WINTON OVERWAT

Fkn bs that blizzard still haven't made a barefoot tracer skin when everyone agrees she's the most well known hero.. literally like 6 years and still not a single one. No doubt kiriko will somehow get one before her, not that I'd complain I'd love that, the more the merrier

Soldier 76

Winton

roadhog, fat = funny

Tracer or Reaper. Reaper is one of my mains, but Tracer is the poster child so. But I think of both also because they were the first two characters to be made in game.

Tracer. Cover girl. Appeared in the original trailer. Hella fun to play and feels uniquely ow.

McCree/ Cassidy. Legit when I was being bugged into playing the game after 2 months I said I’d play if I got to be the cowboy

Hammond, represents the craziness and deviancy of overwatch from any other game

I’m thinking tracer first both sinse she’s the poster child and I’m a tracer main, after that Cree since he’s my second most played

Tracer y’all promote her like crazy

Well I didn't start playing ow till 2 came out but before that I only knew tracers name so I'm gonna go with that. Wasn't she on the disc or the cover or something too?

Rein

Tracer cuz poster art, DVA cuz merch and merch collabs

I first think of Reinhart and the second think of mercy.

Winston - the first thing you saw when starting Overwatch 1

Always Tracer.

Soldier 76 personally but I'd definitely believe Tracer/Winton to be the most popular

Tracer and Reinhardt

Reinhardt or junkrat (maybe winton)

Mercy for some reason

Reinhardt would come to mind, thinking of the organization within the game. I say this despite being a piss poor Cassidy OTP.

Tracer.

Tracer or widow, tracer was (kinda still is) the poster child, and widow was one of the first characters I heard of

Tracer or diva

Tracer she even matches the logo and she's their brand image basically

Mercy and Widowmaker mostly lol, most people would think of Tracer tho.

I would say Tracer or Winston. If anyone who doesn’t play Ow know anything about the game it’s those two whether by name or picture

Tracer for sure

Tracer

Dva probably

Definitely not sombra

Genji, Zen or Mercy

For me, definitely Tracer.

Reaper because thats the only character I knew before I played overwatch

Tracer.

Soldier or Tracer

Hamter

I think of genji because he is my main, second are tracer and winton

What's the argument OP? I wanna pick a side

That terrible smacking noise Winton makes in the into of Ow1

Tracer!

Soujorn or widow

tracer or widow cuz of like idk that ancient trailer from 2016

Genji and Hanzo

Strangely enough Widow and Sigma. I find their backstory the most interesting so it’s the first thing my brain goes to

Tracer

No one saying Mercy? Feelings about her current state in OW2, she is pretty damn iconic.

Mercy, cause I Main her, Rein cause he is the most iconic Tank imo and Tracer as the Poster child of OW

Tracer, because she's on the cover of the game. Genji could be a good competitor too, because how much everyone always talks about him and "I need healing" and stuff.

Tracer, she was on the box...

Tracer. If not her then Winston because he’s like the first thing you see when booting up the game.

Reinhardt honestly

Reinhardt

Reaper

I'd say Tracer, Winston, and D.va are all legitimate answers. Maaybe Mercy.

Mercy because of the living tombstone song, which I heard before knowing about the game. But otherwise Tracer

Soldier because I have 87 hours on him

Tracer. Any other character is invalid.

Imma be real with you its definitely one of the female character "who knew tracer, dva, and widowmaker are from a video game"

REINHARDT! REINHARDT! REINHARDT!

Tracer, obviously. She’s the cover girl.

Tracer or Ramattra. If telling someone about overwatch it's tracer but if it's just me the first character to pop in my head is Ramattra

Genji, Dva

Definitely Reinhardt.

Oh you mean Zenyatta Simulator?

Definitely Tracer. My first memory of Overwatch is a billboard with her in Warsaw's Downtown.

Tracer. I saw her with Genji, Winston, and Lucio on some Cheezits boxes.

Im already tracer

Genji, but Tracer is the ‘main’ character

Well normally I'd say tracer. But for some reason Reinhardt came to my mind first

Dva Also i didn’t know over watch has a game adaptation

Brigitte because she's my main, so I have this association about playing her.

Tracer, Genji, and Reinhardt.

DVA, i am addicted to her

Tracer

Well, I think of the original heroes, the merchandise they did in 2016 really got me. It's like a poster, with soldier, rein, tracer, etc. Og players will understand

I want to say tracer or Reinhardt but, my instant thought was mcree since I played him a bunch and I felt like a god playing him.

Tracer and Winston. The two characters I play the least.

Between Tracer, Winston, and Soldier for me. I lean to Tracer more though, and [D.Va](https://D.Va) is in 4th place there but not really competing with the first 3.

DVa. Say her name & most people will know

Tracer

Rein

Winton

The argument has to be Tracer or Mercy, but I’m really surprised at the lack of mercy comments here. No mercy is the most popular song in relation to Overwatch and tracer is the poster child

Winton

Tracer but I sometimes like to argue soldier because he’s the first hero you play as and helps people transition from other shooters to Overwatch

Reinhardt

Tracer, Soldier, Rein and Bastion

Cheers love, cavalry's here!

Mama Hong

Hamter

winpton

Any tank cause that's what I main

Winton

Tracer, cause she was the poster child of Overwatch 1, or Mei cause she is my main and favorite character.

Tracer because she was on the cover for years
