Overwatch‘s 27th hero is finally here, and her name is Brigitte Lindholm, daughter of Torbjörn.
Brigitte is a new tank-ish support hero with a shield and a flail who can deal out damage as well as heal her teammates and increase their armor. Here’s a breakdown of her abilities:
-
Rocket Flail – Brigitte’s melee weapon has an extended range, enabling her to strike multiple enemies with a single swing.
-
Repair Pack – Brigitte throws a Repair Pack that can heal an ally. Any healing over that ally’s maximum health provides them with armor instead.
-
Whip Shot – Brigitte throws her flail a long distance, dealing damage and knocking an enemy away from her.
-
Barrier Shield – Brigitte deploys a frontal energy barrier to absorb a limited amount of damage.
-
Shield Bash – Once her Barrier Shield is deployed, Brigitte can dash forward to stun an enemy.
-
Inspire – When Brigitte hits enemies with her flail, she also heals nearby allies over time. Read more…

‘Broverwatch’ is a group of guys who get together to play games and talk about their feelings
At three o’clock every Sunday afternoon, a group of four British lads get together to play video games. This might sound like a pretty standard Sunday, but these chaps congregate so they can talk about their mental health, their feelings, and, well, how crap they are at video games.
They call themselves “Broverwatch.” (And, yeah, they really love playing Overwatch.)
Don’t let the project’s name fool you: Broverwatch couldn’t be further from the bro-y, alpha male get-together you might be imagining. Social media producer Duncan Vicat-Brown—one of the four “bros”—says the project started up because “men don’t talk about their feelings enough.” Read more…
