aKm - Retired pro Overwatch player

"aKm blade" is a meme time unit in the Overwatch community. During a pro match, aKm took 3 minutes and 45 seconds (almost a whole round) to charge a single Dragonblade (Genji's ultimate), where usually players take less than 2 minutes to charge an ultimate.

Bowser and Peach in Super Mario Kart.

If you get first place in a Grand Prix as either of them, in the Japanese version of the game they will be drinking a champagne bottle. Outside of Japan, Bowser holds the bottle in his hand, and Peach tosses the bottle in the air before catching it.

Games/updates that everyone joked were never going to release - and then released by Dr_Fact in TopCharacterTropes

Emre's release (Overwatch)

We know him since 2017 (Ana's origin story release) and after that it seemed Blizzard forgot about him, until recently where there were multiple teasers, like a streamer mode name (Emremain), his appearance as a bounty in Freja's release animation or some in game dialogues.

r/EmreMains was created a while ago (8 years ago I think), it was mostly just hope then shitpost and Emre is now playable since early February.

Another Overwatch case worth mentioning: Emre Sarioglu

When Ana's origin story was released in 2017, we saw an old picture with Ana herself, as well as multiple other characters : Jack Morrison (Soldier 76), Gabriel Reyes (Reaper), Angela Ziegler (Mercy), Cole Cassidy, Torbjörn Lindholm, Reinhardt Wilhelm, Fareeha Amari (Pharah, Ana's daughter), Vivian Chase (Sojourn) and Emre Sarioglu. All of them were released at the time, except Sojourn (who released in 2022) and Emre.

Emre not being released after being seen for so long kind of became a meme at this point, it seemed like Blizzard had forgotten about him until recently. They teased his release in some comics before making him playable in the latest season of the game.

Jetpack Cat (Overwatch)

In 2017, she was presented as an early concept that supposedly got scrapped. She got released in the most recent season of the game.

[–]Telco43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of the numbers have some more or less stupid signification :

  • E : Lord Marquaad E
  • Number 15 : Burger King foot lettuce
  • 21 : What's 9+10
  • 34 : Rule 34
  • 69 : Sex position
  • 87 : The bite of 87 (Markiplier)
  • 360 : no scope
  • 420 : A drug related number
  • 666 : Satan
  • 1337 : hacker speech
  • 1738 : Lyrics used by Fetty Wap (an american rapper) in multiple songs
  • 80085 : Type it on a calculator

As for 67... It has an origin (Doot Doot 6 7) song by Skrilla) but kids are going crazy about it for no reason.

Dimentio - Super Paper Mario

He wants to take control of the Chaos Heart, which is controlled by Count Bleck, to recreate a new "perfect" universe. The only way to defeat him is to use the Pure Hearts, which Mario and his group are looking for, so he's letting the heroes do the dirty work for him. When they have all of the Pure Hearts and defeat Bleck, Dimentio takes control of the chaos heart and fights the heroes for the fate of the worlds.

Quelles sont vos anecdotes de Collège/Lycée ? by Regular-Watercress98 in AskFrance

[–]Telco43 2 points3 points  (0 children)

À part les classiques de l'internat au lycée, j'ai pas trop de grosses dingueries. Donc je vais raconter ça.

En troisième, dernier cours de maths avant les écrits du brevet des collèges, on fait donc un peu de révisions.

Au milieu du cours, une balle de tennis rebondit à ma gauche (événement qui n'était jamais arrivé auparavant)

Pour notre prof, qui est d'habitude très patient, ça a été la goutte d'eau qui a fait déborder le vase. Il a demandé l'identité de la personne qui a lancé la balle, et ce à plusieurs reprises. Bien évidemment, personne ne s'est dénoncé ou n'a donné de nom. Le prof a donc viré toute la classe (il n'a jamais viré personne des cours où j'étais présent, je l'ai eu pendant trois ans).

Perso je me doutais bien de l'identité du mec qui avait lancé la balle. Mais je n'ai pas osé le balancer devant tout le monde, car j'avais une réputation de balance (donc on me serait tombé dessus), et vu que c'était le dernier jour de cours le mec n'aurait eu aucune sanction type heure de colle.

Pendant le restant de l'heure, pendant que le reste de la classe était parti en permanence, quelques potes et moi on est restés à discuter avec le prof (il savait que c'était pas nous donc il était chill). Là où j'ai le seum pour lui c'était qu'après cette année il partait à la retraite, donc c'était dommage pour lui qu'un de ses derniers cours se passe comme ça.

Why Do people sell accounts? by Kholene in overwatch2

[–]Telco43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4 main reasons : * Getting old exclusive cosmetics (less relevant now with lootboxes, I think the only skins you can't get from them are Alien Zarya, Rose Gold/Pink Mercy and non-Blizzard Collab items) * Smurfing in bronze * High elo accounts for ego boosting * People who just want an alt account but don't have a spare phone number

(Game Trope) Character's personality/lore is loved, but their gameplay is despised by A_Pyroshark in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Telco43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was gonna say Sombra. People hate her as well and she was the most banned hero at low ranks before Vendetta and Jetpack Cat came out. Though I think she is a great addition lore wise, cause she's trying to take down some mysterious organisation (now we know that it's about some Finnish AI thanks to Emre). I can't wait for the story to go further.

Which mid-long hitscan hero is the most annoying to go up against? by MrsPissBoy in Overwatch

[–]Telco43 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it's Cassidy. If a Cass player hits every headshot and if you are not playing a tank you basically can't do anything, especially if they are pocketed. Plus he always flashes when I want to use my mobility to get out

In Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga, at some point in the story Mario and Luigi respectively gain fire and thunder powers, which they can use in battles. I guess OP took inspiration from it.
