The new Halloween emote from Ana in Overwatch brings a lot of joy – and plenty of new friends.
For a few days now, the Halloween update for Overwatch has been live, and most players have already received a variety of loot boxes, thus gaining different Halloween-themed cosmetic unlocks.
Especially notable are not only the legendary skins of Mercy, Reaper, Roadhog, and Junkrat, but also the “only” epic skin of Ana, in conjunction with the new emote. Players can make Ana pull out a pumpkin bowl at the push of a button and spread some candy on the ground in front of her.
The YouTuber and player Escobario took this opportunity to look for some new friends and not spend Halloween in Overwatch with violence, but to supply enemies with candy. This involves shooting selected (and of course only well-behaved) players with the sleep arrow and then showering them with candy.
Contrary to expectations, a large part of the players reacted positively and did not resist even after waking up. Instead, they thanked politely or even wanted more candy.
In one round, distributing candy even caused the match to come to a complete standstill. Friends and enemies sat comfortably at the payload and were delighted with candy from several Anas. It doesn’t always have to be violence – not even in a shooter.
Have you encountered such friendly players in Overwatch, who occasionally put aside their weapons to have a bit of “nonsense”?
