Trivia

• The police officer carried a FAMAS assault rifle.
• This is another chance where Winston is a mistakenly called Monkey after Reaper, Echo, Cassidy.
• Cassidy foreshadowed "Say hi to the monkey for me." from Reunion. "Hello, Winston!" is the first thing Echo said to Winston.
• There are a lot of differences to the cinematic than In-Game. Examples:
  • Mei's alt fire freezes enemy units.
  • Genji has no green aura when deflecting.
  • Brigitte uses Rocket Flail to one-shot enemy units.
  • Echo separately fires her Cluster Bombs rather than all at once.
  • Echo must not last long flying due to a cooldown.
  • Mercy never used her staff, instead she touches the hero to heal.
  • Larger shield is only possible for Brigitte, but with Reinhardt it already has a large shield coverage.
  • Tracer's pulse bomb has a window amount of time rather than short.
  • Combination of ultimates: Pulse Bomb + Blizzard.
  • Team composition: 2 Tanks, 4 Damage and 2 Support.
