solarbird: Hana "D.va" Song from Overwatch (d.va)

So I was playing in a Flashpoint match, which I kind of think of as “5CP” because it’s 2CP but five points instead of two (plus some other changes that make it work better), and basically, you fight over as many as five contested points on a map in random order and first to capture and hold three points wins.

We were winning pretty handily and had just nailed down the second point when I flew off as D.va and got to… I forget which point, doesn’t matter, maybe ruins… and started defending. We won the first team fight, but right as enemy team was coming back I noticed that the possession counter hadn’t started ticking up. And then we won the second team fight and the possession counter still kept not ticking up. And we were winning the third team fight and I’m like nobody else is on this goddamn point, why the hell isn’t the possession counter still at 0-0, why isn’t it ticking up?! when I realised

OH MY GOD WE’RE DEFENDING THE WRONG FUCKING POINT

and flew off to the right one, which was, you see, just past the one I’d been defending in the same direction as I’d come from, because I’d followed the point marker to the third point, but stopped one point too early – these are big maps, so that can happen. So I when I landed and started to fight everyone on both teams apparently just kind of assumed from the way I was playing that I knew what the hell I was doing and took my word for it until I suddenly took off screaming GROUP GROUP GROUP via emits and OH MY GOD in text chat.

We fought over the wrong goddamn point for… I don’t know. Almost five minutes.

We still won. I mean, they hadn’t noticed either. But it’s still the funniest (and dumbest!) moment I’ve had in Overwatch in ages xD
