Overwatch is one of the most famous video games currently in the community of players with a little over a year, competing directly against video games like League Of Legends in countries like South Korea, where most are active players and becoming the most played from that country.

Its game mechanic consists of six people per team, where we choose a hero with unique movements and abilities. The main objective is to work as a team either to attack or defend points, target escort, control and competitive mode. Recently they added new game modes like team combat.

Each hero has a specific role and are: Offensive, Defensive, Tank and Support with various maps and game modes. That make Overwatch one of the most beloved games in the community of players. And for me one of my favorites.

According to official figures on the same page of Overwatch exceeds 30 million players.

Hanzo Shimada strives to become a warrior without equal, and for that he must master the skills of archer and murderer.

The Shimada family was established centuries ago. It was a clan of assassins whose power grew over the years, which served to forge a vast criminal empire that benefited from the lucrative sales of weapons and illegal substances. As the eldest son of the family, Hanzo was forced to succeed his father and rule the Shimada empire. He was trained from an early age to take charge of such responsibility and showed a natural leadership ability, as well as innate understanding of strategy and tactics. He also excelled in much more practical areas: he was a prodigy in martial arts, the use of sword and archery.

After the death of his father, the elders ordered Hanzo to straighten out his capricious younger brother so that he would also help govern the Shimada empire. When his brother refused, Hanzo was forced to kill him. This act broke Hanzo's heart and made him reject his father's legacy. He finally left the clan and everything he had worked so hard for.

Hanzo is a mid-level hero with a sniper specialty whose skills help the team strongly, either by providing detection of the enemy for a certain time, in addition to uploading links where not everyone can reach. And count on skills that can hurt several enemies at once and with one of the best special abilities, so dangerous that you can take down the entire team in a matter of seconds.

The passive ability of Hanzo is very simple is to be able to climb the walls.

Hanzo's bow fires an arrow at its target the damage depends on how much pressure is made on the bowstring, with a fully loaded bow its damage is 125 points of life, with a very low rate of fire, but unlimited ammunition .

Hanzo charges an arrow containing an advanced tracking device that detects the movements of the enemies within the radius of 10 meters of detection, whose ability facilitates Hanzo and the allies to anticipate enemies for 10 seconds. This ability has a reuse of 20 seconds.

The offensive ability of Hanzo is to shoot 6 arrows that when striking in the walls to disperse and can hurt several enemies at once, with the bow fully loaded can do a damage of 75 points per arrow. With a reuse of 10 seconds.

Hanzo's special ability is to invoke the spirit of the dragon that goes in a straight line, crossing the walls and causing damage to any enemy it finds. With a maximum damage of 200 points per seconds in an area of 4 meters.

Hanzo is one of the best defensive heroes or attackers in Overwatch, I personally do not like it so much that I never use it, but you have my respect as I have seen players use it in such a lethal way that they drive the team to victory or a lot case to defeat in the sense of many who do not know how to use it.

I do not consider him an easy-to-use hero and I think he's one of the most difficult in Overwatch since using his bow requires a pretty good degree of accuracy to hit the targets, as well as an efficiency in consecutive jumps and shots of his bow. However, it can be more lethal than Widowmaker since unlike her Hanzo can shoot at close range and hit shots in the head.

Although Hanzo has a speed of movement is not as good as his ability to climb, his long distance combat favor it a lot, of course it requires a lot of practice to have an acceptable degree of accuracy with his bow. In addition, his scattering arrow skill is very dangerous in closed places with the ability to bounce and cause much damage to enemies hit.

Its special ability is one of the most fearsome in the game, since by invoking the titanic spiritual dragon it can raze the enemy team for the high damage rate in a matter of seconds. In addition to being used to ward off enemies from a certain position.

• You can climb and jump any wall.
• Hanzo can play short and long range.
• Missing arrow is your biggest source of damage and deaths.
• Dragon strike has a large extension and high damage.
• Strong against heroes like; Bastion, Mercy, Zenyatta, Torbjörn and Junkrat.

• Low fire rate.
• Movement speed in slow combat.
• Hero difficult to master.
• Weak against heroes like; Genji, Winston, Widowmaker, Tracer, Reaper, Roadhog and D.Va.

• Hanzo's original concept was a cyborg killer brandishing a bow and arrow. The character had the same mask as Genji; He also wore a glowing neon green sword. His suit was in the style of an old samurai armor and there was a shimenawa rope around his waist. Later, the concept was divided into design for Genji and Hanzo.
• The only thing that is transferred to Hanzo's design is the boots he wears and his bow and arrows. Although the arc of the conceptual character followed a cyborg - futuristic and robotic theme - Hanzo 's inclination became rather simplistic and more traditional.
• When equipping Hanzo with the Okami (wolf in Japanese) or lone wolf skin, some lines of voice and action change with their appearance:
• The last line of voice changes to "狼 よ, 我 ((((" (okami, waga teki wo kurae, which means wolves, consumes my enemies), heard by both Hanzo and his enemies. "The wolf hunts its prey!" Along with long howling choruses The dragons change to a pair of wolves.
• The Sonic Arrows voice lines are changed to "The wolf marks its prey". and "Look through the eyes of the Wolf."
• In Beta, the Young Hanzo and Young Master masks had clearly younger voices, but this changed to their normal voice before the official release.
• The rare skins of Hanzo, Azuki, Kinoko, Midori and Sora mean, respectively, 'azuki bean' (a Japanese red bean), 'fungus' (although 'ki' may be 'yellow'), 'green' and 'sky' '
• Hanzo's voice line "One thing, I know ten thousand things" is a direct quote from the famous martial arts text Go Rin No Sho: The Book of Five Rings by Miyamoto Musashi.
• The quote "Flow like water" is also a reference to the Book of Five Rings; however, it can also be a reference to the famous martial artist Bruce Lee.
• Hanzo's quote "All your base is ours" is a reference to the famous slogan of the game Zero Wing of 1989.
• The quote "I choose you, dragon spirit" is a reference to the Pokémon anime; "I choose you" is a quote that is known by the anime protagonist, Ash Ketchum.
• The name of Hanzo could be an allusion to Hattori Hanzō, a famous samurai of Japanese history, who is often portrayed in popular culture as a ninja master.
• Hanzo's Halloween Voice Line "You're Dead" is an anime / manga quote from the Fist of the North Star, which the protagonist, Kenshiro, is famous for saying before killing someone.
• Hanzo's quote "Simple Geometry" could be a reference to The Hustler scene on the television show Fresh Prince of Bel Air
• Because Okami's skin is mainly white, this may be a nod to Capami's Okami game.
• Hanzo's hairstyle in the Reflections comic is a chonmage hairstyle and it is a traditional Japanese hairstyle and it was related to the samurai.
• The Hanzo emote dance was by Soran Bushi, a traditional Japanese fisherman dance.
• Hanzo could be a reference to the warrior beetle of Kubo and the Two Strings, which is also called Hanzo. While Hanzo is a warrior who fights for good, and Hanzo was a former criminal, the two share many similarities. The most significant thing is that both are master archers. In addition, both were the leaders of a family clan, a pillage of wealth and causing chaos, the other fighting for justice.

In order to finish, Hanzo requires many hours of practice to be able to hit the targets with his arrow since he must be tightening the rope and firing while you move. However, when you master it you can be a champion with a lot of help to the team and you can even ride the team. It is essential to combine your special ability with that of other heroes to kill as many enemies. I hope you liked my review about Hanzo!
