Venture is the newest Damage hero to join the roster, wielding their powerful drill that adds unique mechanics to your gameplay. Using Smart Excavator, you’ll fire a seismic charge that will burst and damage opponents at a short distance. You can escape danger or sneak up on opponents by drilling into the ground using Venture’s new Burrow ability. When burrowing, you can charge up using your primary fire and then burst from the ground underneath, dealing a powerful blow to foes above. Drill Dash allows you to lunge forward and knock back all who stand in Venture’s path. You can also use Drill Dash while burrowing at a reduced cooldown when you need to get to your next team fight quickly.

6:44 “The cow will moo and jiggle”😭😭

[@piggywiggy4990]

omg the fact that Talon Ana has two eyes and widow is missing one… so much attention to detail!

[@PomLamb]

And that is as far as it goes cause their interacions still work as though Ana is the one with the missing eye. Still pretty cool though.

[@uwugangsomething484]

Is that Ben 10

[@DevilishDealer19]

A neat little detail with Bastion's Ramen skin is if you say hi when he's in Turret form, a plastic fork will be waved

[@PurpleMoon799]

how could you do this to us niandra.. how could you lie like this??? its 81 not 80! 😤

[@Niandra]

OKAY SO i didn't mean for the junkertown fact to be two different facts - I just messed up placing the number graphic hghafhafh

[@PurpleMoon799]

@@Niandra 😭😭 its fine just treat it as a bonus

[@rabbidguarddog]

She's a mercy main, of course she's gonna casually under report her stats. 😂 jk

[@Klearedc]

It’s 82, the last being we play OW to feel good and not bad, so cancel the toxic crybabies that need to wait for their team to start cookin’, because the team will cook eventually if you’re not rude, most of the time

[@zeta0149]

Useless fact #82: There were 81 useless facts in this video instead of the advertised 80

[@xvxy4441]

0:25 that interaction is so cool :0 in mirrorwatch tracer killed ramattra instead of widow killing mondatta

[@tiannacowan6999]

that's so cool! i was wondering what the voice line referenced. they seem to have put more effort into mirrorwatch than the mythic mercy, but i still dig it.

[@crackedjabber]

Another useless but adorable fact, apparently Overwatch went to a fox sanctuary to record the sounds for Kiriko's ultimate. That sanctuary is called Save a Fox and they have a youtube channel full of just the most wholesome rescued foxes living their best lives.... also Minks! Anyway, always glad of a new Niandra video.

[@saehtnyS]

im still so sad that they removed mercy's menacing glare during her victory pose with her mythic, it even makes sense cause (2:04) doomfist has the same thing.

[@bradyonetta]

Echo doing impressions of the characters the copies + k1lls is so cute

[@SixNineFourTwenty]

she also has a mace to the face voiceline when killing brig with whip shot. and also some digs at solider and sojourn

[@mr.greninjaa54]

Honestly, bap's achievement being the rarest doesn't surprise me too much, I've tried so hard to get it and it's quite difficult imo! Great video

[@mythicaltwinkie8216]

Bap Wall + Ana Grenade. You're welcome.

[@MrEpyLeptik]

I did it on accident 👀

[@blacktimhoward4322]

@@mythicaltwinkie8216 I don't think this would save me since one time I spent two weeks trying to get the achievement but I averaged something like 150 per window instead of 2500 as required

[@gameliking]

I've been trying to get that achievement for years

[@tyo6492]

4:56 this sound effect is the StarCraft 2 Medic/Medivac healing beam sound.

[@petofiarkwright3236]

I've noticed Moira's recolors are basically named after alcoholic bevarages. She really has that Irish blood within her.

[@fruitlion8]

I suppose when Junkrat uses Rip Tire, it's like swapping places with another player temporarily, complete with their own sprays :)

[@allanlugo7842]

These for me are the most useful facts in the game, like the rare eliminations quotes, there is one really specific where rein needs to be eliminated by an enemy torb while having a torb in his team 😂

[@alexandertemelsiz6870]

I believe the reason why people like this game and the reason why its still alive despite the controversal changes is the detail they put into the characters and the world

[@gabdb]

that's kinda the reason i play tbh

[@NativeWolf227]

Howdy! This is NativeWolf and a homie sent this to me. To see a simple highlight clip of mine be apart of something like this is so cool! Thank you for the credit! Much love ♥ 🙏 I do miss those soul orbs. Reaper was super good in the early days it was nightmarish lmao

I have!!! I'm very happy when I see it

[@user-eo4it2rn1f]

@@Niandra niandra mercy content creator 🚫. useless facts

[@FlyArrow500]

Who?

[@jeremycaswell]

I like to imagine echo's copying ability is glitched, so she temporarily adopts the personalities of people she mimics as well, and has to catch herself so she doesn't act like them.

[@eyads7298]

Ahhh the last 20 facts unlocked so many memories💔💔

[@sirius1320]

4:15 you can actually see some lighting indicating bob shooting. If you destroy the tables/make the stuff on there fly away on havanna attack spawn on top and go into the hero select screen (fast), you'll see the things flying away. Also, you can see the sym shield on other maps if you put the shield at the correct location. So basically, the camera is placed in the map on a specific spot while hiding the players. (I think this is also the reason why most maps hero switch cameras on attack are in the attacker spawn room, so you don't get information on who the defenders are playing)

[@IFreakinLovePickless]

That's not Bob shooting, it's this alarm thing behind him

[@sirius1320]

@@IFreakinLovePickless Sadly, Alarms don't blink like that ingame, I think this is to prevent epilepsy attacks and to stop it from disrupting the gameplay

[@ALPHA_NOTBETA123]

THE ILLARI ONE IS SO SAD

[@Taka_3sixty5]

on the digital face of zens toybot christmas skin, the face changes depending on the emote you use, for example his dance and snowflake emotes have different faces to the default and it also changes with some victory posses. zen also shares a voice line with echo where zen says "do i think?, does a submarine swim" which echo has a reply voice line thats says "a submarine cant swim" which pairs nicely with his subaquatic skin because he's actually a submarine in that skin. its almost like echo is telling zen that us bots don't think.

[@BLAZE12126]

Omg I just impressed my friends with the Junkertown one! I love your videos so much 💓

[@alvin_row]

I love this series! And your thumbnails are always nice too :D

[@lperino07]

I LOVE THESE VIDEOS, NIANDRA!! 💗💗

[@lindahhh]

niandra i love when u make these random fact videos! pls keep doin em thank you 🙏🏻🩷

[@Xipe75]

I don’t know why but this is so interesting even if I’m never gonna use any of these to help me in the game I still love it keep it up:)

[@carinag4635]

you have no idea how much i love these videos

The fact that you found all of these baffles me really great vid (:

[@RaijinKense1]

Fantastic video! Love it!!!!

[@alexbaughman9404]

amazing video!

[@spyonmebaby]

4:15 i had this happen to me at the end of the round on circuit royal, i played down my barrier as winston on the cart, and as the game ended, showing the winning team, you could see the barrier's effects but not the actual barrier itself in the background.

[@terrorbilly5656]

Some of these details are very cleverly incorporated!

[@Amir2Stay]

Great video!

[@JarrKriss4747]

Such a good and interesting video, thaaanks^^ Now you have +1 Sub. Good luck^^

[@thomasbrodie-sangsteredits5971]

these are not useless! I love them keep it up Niandra!

[@cedenoa001]

Omg! Junkrat sipping the Overwatch theme I did not see coming😂

[@Cloud7050]

0:15 some posters disappeared a while ago along with other map geometry, although the lighting wasn't updated. Like an important wooden outcrop halfway through Eichenwalde (that one should be back now). And there's still posters missing inside attacker spawn in for Route 66.

[@gremlin30000]

amazing vid and i love the thumbnails for all of your videos! did you draw them yourself?

[@ThePrototype047]

#36 is probably a reference to DVA's original concept being a cat that piloted the mech

[@lastadmiral4432]

Also, numbani's glass now has orisa's supercharger instead of the doomfist gauntlet

[@I_HAVE_NO_ENNEMIES_DOG]

Fact number 83: when you use the animation entry where Reinhardt charge when you use he’s young skin it’s the only animation where we see Reinhardt a little bit smiling

[@starman4572]

Watching this video filled me with an immense sense of pride, considering I have Bap's achievement. On the last day of OW1, I was in a lobby of players and we spent the whole time just goofing off, and helping each other get achievements. I remember that even with a Mercy-boosted turret-form Bastion, it took three separate windows for me to get that achievement. I wouldn't even think to consider how one might get that achievement legitimately. I still wear that achievement like a badge though.

[@Doctor_Mortis]

the last one is like OH WHAT how didnt I notice that, I use that emote everyday XD

[@FaeKitsune]

Doom has a highlight intro that (like Orisa) he no longer has the ability. It's his uppercut from when he was a DPS in og OW. I have it equipped specifically for that reason even though I suck with Doom and don't play him lol.

[@NovaaTheGreat]

5:32 erm... akshually.. its a boiled egg! 🤓☝

[@MonoPancakes]

i think the action figures on the stands in Blizzard World make a sound when u shoot them

[@I_HAVE_NO_ENNEMIES_DOG]

Fact number 82:your can hear a train noise on your animation start where Reinhardt charge when you use Reinhardt with the train skin

[@dziosdzynes7663]

Reaper's "Lucky Color" voiceline is the only unspammable voiceline in the game for about a year now.

[@TheGamingKoala12]

That blue poster is mad

[@PalmtreePokemon]

These facts got me to grand master especially the Bastion QR code

[@Jazzy-qw2bm]

6:38 I actually found this out and found it really cool, i was just trying different things with the skin and noticed that

[@LilysDream96]

mercys gun instant shots when the highlight intro battle angel is played with the mythic while the other ones only shows the guns, with homemade cookies the mythic has like red dust over them aswell as other effects (onl the fortune one just changes the colour of the drawing like pink mercy and other legendarys and mythics)

[@OnlyTrueFlame]

two more: 1. Reaper throws his shotguns forward when reloading in first person but backwards in third. 2. Windows on the inside of buildings in Esperanca spawn rooms don't exist on the outside.

[@solidagold115]

Wait!! I never knew the immortality field is a disco ball with the funky Bap skin? That is so cool!

[@redcap770219]

Could you please test the weapon swap time of Moira, Mercy, Lifeweaver, Torbjörn and other characters? Currently we only know that mercy is 0.35 seconds.I hope you can test it. I can’t find any information on the Internet🥺

hey ill add another!!! hopefully this isnt already mentioned in any of the videos yet : the if you changed languages the ''sorry'' ''well played '' and '' thanks '' sprays change aswell with the current language you change into

[@lyzder7298]

At some point in OW2 when Sombra could place her translocator, it was possible for her to press both plates in Junkertown at the same time. This wasn't possible in OW1 and of course it isn't possible with her current rework anymore

[@HEARTHLINGjoel]

I LOVE THAT THUMBANIL❤❤❤

[@SixNineFourTwenty]

Heres another one for you. Echo has 1 or 2 voice lines for specific abilities while she is coping a hero. In overwatch 1, these were 1 or 2 of the regular voicelines a hero would say when their ability is being used, but in echos voice. However with the release of overwatch 2, all ability voicelines were scrapped and rerecorded. However echo's ones weren't changed. This means for most overwatch 1 heros, echo technically has unique voicelines for their abilities. My personal favourite is "your strength fades" when echo uses biotic grasp on an enemy.

[@XertiqWasTaken]

7:02 ayo we need that my man

[@ehong2925]

The frick are the woodpeckers of ow eating, those eggs are massive

[@CGJero]

2:57 that Echo voiceline sounding *exactly* like widow is oddly scary

[@humblecanadian4206]

They should bring back the dash bleed effect that would actually help genji out a ton and he needs it.

[@Type_blazenil]

Actually any explosive g ets the "it's like I'm relieving the day" voice line, except junkrats primary fire for some reason? But his trap will so I assume that it's a coding oversight

[@willwunsche6940]

I have been doing Alt+Z forever now 😂 it's hilarious to see people's reactions and sometimes I even find other people that know it between rounds and we have to keep it secret and just laugh in match chat

8:43 Thanks Nilandra now I need a Boba tea 🥲

[@stachu5049]

Can I just say, Torb's armor packs suited him way more? Like I get it, it's more balanced and he's not a support, but for god's sake, his whole thing is that he's Overwatch's blacksmith 😭
