Blizzard doesn\u2019t have a Support hero in Overwatch that\u2019s fully capable of flight\u2026 Yet. Yes, Mercy gets close, but she still needs something to float towards, she can\u2019t fly around on her own. As far as healers come, Ana is at the bottom of the list when it comes to mobility, with no movement abilities to speak of (even Zen\u2019s ultimate makes him a faster). Sensing this injustice, Overwatch workshop guru \u2018andygmb\u2019 decided to see how it would play if Ana could fly around, similar to her daughter Pharah. To be fair, it could be the fact that Andy decided to test out Ana\u2019s new ability with an entire swarm of the hero carpet-bombing their way through Volskaya, which would send anyone running for cover. Just like Pharah, there\u2019s a bar indicating how much longer you can fly around for, because you can\u2019t just float forever, that would just be ridiculous. \u201cSomething about a fleet of Ana\u2019s tossing nades from above is terrifying,\u201d Reddit user Frozewind said in the comments, and we would have to be inclined to agree. On Twitter, Jupit compared andy\u2019s clip to an AC-130 gunship, a plane used by the U.S. military, and one of the most memorable killstreak rewards from Call of Duty. https:\/\/twitter.com\/Jupiiit\/status\/1335967246481551364?s=20 The ability to fly would, obviously, make it much easier for Ana to flank, and reach areas she otherwise wouldn\u2019t be able to. It would also make it much easier to heal teammates since you could just rise above any obstacles. Sleeping enemies would also become much easier, as it\u2019s a bit tougher to dodge the dart when it\u2019s coming from a higher angle. Thankfully, we probably don\u2019t have to worry about the grandma of Overwatch taking flight anytime soon, now or in 2 \u2014 whenever it comes out. If anything, Blizzard is more likely to just give us brand a new Support hero who can fly to join Echo and Pharah above everyone else, before they\u2019d give Ana a hilarious buff like this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Overwatch players discover how terrifying Ana is with a jetpack Blizzard EntertainmentThankfully, Ana lacks the ability to fly in Overwatch, because we now know if she could, it would be absolutely horrifying.
