This Overwatch Mythbusters Video Tests Potentially Devastating Strategies

Can Reaper's Death Blossom get speed boosted by Lucio? Can Mei block the end-game victory poses with her Ice Wall?

The latest Overwatch Myths video from YouTube user DefendTheHouse is out now, and the series continues to shock and awe us with some of the things you can do in Blizzard's first-person shooter. Check it out for yourself in the embed above.

Some of these myths give us new ideas to try out on our teammates and enemies. The video tests Tracer's Recall ability to see if she can get rid of a pulse bomb, Reaper's Death Blossom to see if it can be speed boosted by Lucio, and Junkrat's Rip-Tire to see if it can be frozen by Mei.

Other myths that get confirmed or busted include whether Genji can deflect Soldier 76's Biotic Field, if Reaper can prevent Mercy's Resurrect by collecting souls, and if Mei can block victory poses with her Ice Wall. As always, the video's results are pretty funny.

You can check out the first Overwatch Myth video here--it tests whether you can heal turrets with packs and the crushing ability of Mei's Cryo-Freeze ability. The second video tests Bastion's crushing ability in Tank form and whether Junkrat's Steel Trap can stop a charging Reinhardt. You can watch that one here.

DefendTheHouse has produced these types of videos for other video games as well, including The Division and Halo 5: Guardians. You can check them out through the links below.
