If you can see Overwatch's Genji you've probably let him get too close. The same applies to his character in Heroes of the Storm. And if that happens, whatever you do, don't shoot him.

Some days you just can't get rid of a bomb, but you can still try to give it back to the Tracer who threw it.
Some days, you just can't get rid of a good pulse bomb, so the game does it for you.
For a game where half the fun is just loving its cast, Blizzard has been slow getting quality Overwatch figures onto the market. Pop Vinyls should be shot into the Sun, and the Nendoroids were a start, but Good Smile has now stepped up with a Figma based on Tracer.
To recap, Overwatch's Tracer is gay. Until now that's been a fact contained to offscreen fiction, but the latest update to the PTR (Public Test Region) has dropped in a new voice line that references Tracer's girlfriend Emily within the game itself.
Recently released Overwatch comic Uprising showed off more of the heroes' pasts. A juicy lore revelation and slick character design for Genji has captured fan's imaginations, inspiring theories and lots of amazing art.
My chief complaint with Overwatch since the beta has been the lack of Overwatch action figures. And while Nendoroids aren't quite what I had in mind, they are certainly better than nothing.
Every character in Overwatch is different. It's one of the most obvious (and fascinating) things about the game. There are big characters, small characters, attack characters, support characters... and there's Tracer, my new total favourite character.
Canadian cosplayer Nathan DeLuca genderbends Overwatch's Tracer to perfection here.

PC gaming continues to bring us ridiculous crossovers, this time mixing a little Street Fighter V with Overwatch.
Yesssss. Bring us more Overwatch LEGO characters, Tim Schwalfenberg. Between your glorious Tracer, last week's D.Va and Dead Frog Inc.'s Zenyatta, we're well on our way to collecting the whole set.
Let's leave all that silly Tracer butt controversy in the past where it belongs shall we?
Instead let's watch this: gameplay footage of Tracer in Heroes of the Storm.
The decision to remove Tracer's over-the-shoulder pose from Overwatch has been a hot topic over the last 24 hours, prompting complaints, debates and petitions about the pose and the way Blizzard has handled the situation.
But Overwatch's director, Jeff Kaplan, has no qualms with the choice whatsoever. In fact, according to a clarification late this afternoon, removing the now-contentious pose was actually easy.
