Team Fortress 2 vs Overwatch. Two of the fastest on their teams who were hired to take fight against an opposing team take test their speed against one another to see who the faster one is.
Interlude[]
(Cue Wiz & Boomstick)
Wiz: Speed is something humans are rather interested in. Their need for having an advantage is what drives us to push past are limits.
Boomstick: Like the Scout, TF2's Boston boy.
Wiz: And Lúcio, Overwatch's celebrity Brazilian icon.
Boomstick: He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick!
Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win a Death Battle!
Scout[]
Wiz: The year was 1968, when a war was being waged by two brothers, Redmond and Blutarch Mann.
Boomstick: Like with most siblings, they argued about everything and their fighting kept escalating until one day they decided to shoe their old man some love and convinced him to buy most of New Mexico.
Wiz: Very much angered of this, when he finally died, he left the brothers with a proposition. Share something for once. Starting with the land they convinced him to buy.
Boomstick: Of course, they started fighting almost immediately and decided to hire the best mercenaries around the globe to win their land. Hell, even Abe Lincoln joined in on it.
Wiz: Over a century later, and new mercenaries came into the fray. Although none could reach the blinding speeds of a man named Jeremy AKA, The Scout.
Boomstick: Born off of Boston, Massachusetts, lil Jeremy was in a bit of a rough life, being the youngest of 8 brothers who were pretty competitive on the old Boston streets.
Wiz: The only problem with that was he was too weak to contribute much before the brawls were over. This grew tiresome for Scout, whose itching for a fight went unsatisfied for much of his childhood.
Boomstick: His solution? Run faster than I do whenever my ex pays a visit. His quickness and agility allowed him to get the first blow first and ran everywhere he needed to be. But he still needed a way to fight as his full potential.
Wiz: Soon deciding to become a mercenary and joined the fight for land. Scout has easily been shown to be the fastest member on the team, able to dodge rockets from the soldier, and double jump in the air. His top speed is listed at 133% faster than the average man, meaning he's able to run up to 17-20 mph.
Boomstick: But of course, he wouldn't be a merc if it wasn't for the guns he carries. His Scatter Shot can fire 6 shots per clip and can somehow reload via Devine intervention with lever.
Wiz: The Soda Popper has 2 shots per clip and fires 50% faster and reloads 25% faster. Dealing damage with the Soda Popper will build up Hype which, when full, will give Scout 5 additional air-jumps for 8 seconds and the Baby's Face Blaster, while it can lower his speed to 10%, it can increase his speed by dealing damage to others.
Boomstick: But his most powerful one is the Force-A-Nature. While only having 2 shots per clip, it fires 50% faster and has 20% more pellets. Hell, it's so powerful it's able to boost him up into the air and send other mercs flying. Even those as a big and heavy as the... Heavy. Damn, I might actually try to use that instead of my shotgun.
(Boomstick then pulls the Force-A-Nature out and starts trying to take out his shotgun with Wiz starting to get a bit worried)
Wiz: Boomstick, you can do that later!
Boomstick: Quiet Wiz! Now where did I-
(Boomstick then accidently breaks the trigger on his shotgun leg and starts stumbling back as he falls and the Force-A-Nature gets triggered and takes out a sky light as it fell and swung right into the camera)
Wiz: Ok. I think I got it working again. Now please don't do anything like that again.
Boomstick: All right I'm sorry. Jeez no need to get all pissy about it.
Wiz: Ugh, let's just move on to rest of Scout's arsenal. Now, while his pistols aren't as deadly, it still offers great accuracy and had more shots to give though he mainly goes in with his Baseball bat. While risky, Scout's baseball bat has a rewarding end product if he can close the distance enough. With 35 damage in base hits and 105 as a critical hit, it is a weapon to fear.
Boomstick: And since it doesn't run on ammo, he doesn't need to reload it and can swing it till the intel comes home. But if he finds himself in a sticky situation, he can use an energy drink called BONK! a radioactive energy drink that makes him invincible for 8 seconds.
Wiz: It also allows Scout to use it on the side of a shotgun for additional mid-air jumps – five of them to be exact, which is bordering on cheating. The main drawback for Bonk, however, is that Scout loses the ability to use his guns in that time. Which makes sense given how it contains 11 pounds of sugar. In fact, he can't even take another drink of it for as least 20 seconds.
Boomstick: Not surprised, given how he can survive 3 rockets exploding all at once! Believe it or not, this was a bit difficult to actually pin down.
Wiz: While yes, we've had some difficult arguments, we put some thought into it and came up with this. Comparing Scouts height to the explosion and using the overpressure method, he found that this would equal 0.1 Tons of TNT. This can be used as the high-end while the other one, equaling about 5 million joules or 0.0011 Tons of TNT, will be used as our low end.
Boomstick: Seems fair I guess. But even then, Scout has some other speed feats, like dodging Engineer's Short Circuit, which creates an electric field that's similar to lightning. About Mach 285.7.
Wiz: Not only that, he's killed a Russian bear with a single hit from a femur, took on many of Greyman's bots which impressed Saxton Hale of all people, and is even skilled enough to go through literal hell just to help the Mann brothers sent one of them to it with his team like any other mission and was apparently supposed to be a gift to all woman by god himself. Apparently. Man comics can be weird.
Boomstick: Yeah but even then, he's not really invincible. The guy has some of the lowest health in the entire game and is very much considered a glass canon since it takes one shot to take him out of commission.
Wiz: He's also been shown to be extremely cocky and arrogant, always running in without a plan and his reckless and big mouthed attitude has gotten him into to trouble more times than not. It also doesn't help that his experience as merc doesn't really stack up compared to the others and his shotguns are pathetic at long range while the long ranged ones aren't that accurate.
Boomstick: But at the end of the day there aren't that many that can outrun the Boston merc. If everything right now is going great and hear a gun shot near you, that cocky son of bitch is coming for your head.
Scout: Grass grows, birds fly, sun shines, and brother I hurt people.
Lúcio[]
Wiz: The year is 2076, and humanity has flourished with robotic technology. All run by Omnica corporation, with their product, omniums, created to bolster manufacturing and create economic equality worldwide. However things would the company was later convicted of fraud, they shut down production of all omniums.
Boomstick: So it would come as a surprise when they booted themselves back up and started a war to overthrow the human race. You know, as most sci-fi pieces of fiction work.
Wiz: The war left many places such as the city of Rio de Janeiro in ruins. While the rest of the world was impacted by this, Rio was hit the most, almost seemingly to never be able to be repaired.
Boomstick: Until two companies offered to fix it up. Calado and Vishkar Corporation. Then Calado's building blew up and Vishkar took the job of rebuilding Rio. Which turned out to be total bullshit. Using some sound science, they were able to keep the residents in line, incorporate a curfew, crack down on apparently lawless behavior, and, turned the city into a sweatshop.
Wiz: However, there was one man who wouldn't stand for this. He stole Vishkars sonic technology, rewired it into a working weapon and led a rebellion against the corporation. And his name...was Lúcio.
Boomstick: You know him, he's the cool DJ at the party that you hang out backstage with, and the one that can bring hope to the people with the power of music!
Wiz: With his new weapons and the help from the rebellion, Lúcio was able to run Vishkars out of town and would soon help in the rebuilding of Rio. Soon, he decided to spread hope everywhere in the world with his hit debut album, Synaesthesia Auditiva after 2 years of work.
Boomstick: But soon, France seemed to be back at their old ways once a ship called Null Sector came to town and started attacking everyone. Lúcio fended them off for a while as some others from the newly formed team Overwatch, came to the rescue by blowing up the command ship.
Wiz: Apparently, he joined their group afterwards in their mission to stop Falco with their world domination plans. And he had just the weapons and skills to do it.
Boomstick: Remember those Sonic Boom thingies he stole? Those can things can fire a 4-round burst of projectiles and deals 20 damage per projectile. He can even run up walls and jump off them for a boost of speed thanks to his robo legs, and use Soundwave to take out multiple groups of people all at once.
DUMMI: Here I am. Ready for death.
Wiz: Not only that, with Crossfade can be used to either heal allies or boost their speed and they can actually be enhanced with Amp It Up. Albeit, only briefly.
(Wiz shoots the Sonic Amplifier at DUMMI as he's launched straight through the wall, causing some items to be fall off the shelves)
Jocelyne: What the hell happened to my room!?
(Wiz then slowly puts down the SA and continues on with Lúcio's weapons and abilites)
Wiz: Anyway, if he has enough points, he can activate his ultimate ability, Sound Barrier which can create personal shields that can block for allies and then decay a bit and if timed correctly, he can even block other's ultimate's like Genji's Dragonblade. Who has a top movement of speed 6 m/s or 13.42 mph.
Boomstick: And as a support hero, he's quick on his feet to so he should be able to match them at those speeds. But even then, he's not really unstoppable. Since he doesn't have any armor on his more important parts, he can leave himself open for the more vital areas which is worst when his DPS feels like it's the lowest of all the heroes.
Wiz: His ultimate disappears in a total of about six or seven seconds so it won't last too long and he doesn't have any experience in close quarters combat as compared to the likes of other heroes.
Boomstick: But even then, Lúcio has shown to be an important part of Overwatch, and he's real good at giving a helping push.
Lúcio: My heart beats for Brazil. I get inspired by the people here. Their struggles. Their triumphs. I want to share that energy, the energy of their lives with the rest of the world.
Intermission[]
(Cue Wiz & Boomstick)
Wiz: All right the combatants are set and we've run the data through all possibilities.
Boomstick: It's time for a Death Battle!
Prelude[]
Location: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
The once beautiful city Rio was now seen as a forgotten and abandoned city, as buildings were half of what they used to be while robots were shooting at a young man with skates as he dodged bullets, rockets, and grenades as he attacked the robots, knocking them down for a bit but it wasn't enough. Then suddenly, a group of people came out of the sky as they started attacking the robots and a blue streak stopped by showing a woman with two pistol like weapons as he appeared next to him. This was Tracer. "Mind if we cut in?" She asked as she zoomed off as an armored gorilla came down and took care of the robots along with many others fighting on his side. This was Overwatch. The man, who was named Lúcio continued to shoot the robots back as Tracer came back to help.
"So, how's Overwatch enjoyed out city?" Lúcio asked.
"It's beautiful. Well, except for all the killer robots." Tracer replied.
"Oh I know. No one likes uninvited guests." The Overwatch members kept on fighting but every time they took them down, more just kept coming and coming in loads by the dozen. It took what felt like days in order to get rid of them all.
"Is... that... all of them?" Winston asked.
"Oh... I wouldn't celebrate just yet. Those things are gonna keep coming. We should get off the streets. Come on. Follow me." Lúcio then lead everyone to an area with two large white doors. "We should be safe here for the moment." The doors opened and everyone went inside the base. "This is my place."
"We won't have much time. The civilians won't hold out much longer. Especially since these new robots are in quantities so big I think even Falcon is jealous. We need to stop this. Lúcio, word from HQ says they've found a way to stop these new robots. There's a location where they're harboring a briefcase that might have something to stop this. We'll try to figure out what to do from here."
"Well, those big ships have been pumping out these robots ever since they got here. If you can stop it, maybe we could save the city and find out who's been behind all of this."
"Right then." Reinhardt said. "So we fly up there, smash through anything that gets in our way, and put them on the beats list!"
"Is that too serious?"
"You know, we can never tell either." Nikki answered.
"Nikki, Genji, keep Null Sector busy. Mercy and Winston, get civilians to safety. And while Echo brings his shuttle, Tracer and Mei, you're with me. We're getting aboard that ship." Just then, a Large Cabin Jet came by, ready to take Lúcio to his location.
Location: 2Fort
"Now are ya sure you know what you're doing?" Engineer asked. Scout just sat on the desk with his hands behind his head as he grabbed the briefcase. Spy was with them to see if Scout would need help with guarding the briefcase because as he put, his incompetence would put their team at a great lost.
"Relax guys, I know what I'm doing. No need to worry your pretty little heads." Scout replied as he went to the desk and sat in the chair while kicking his legs up. "Now you all go on ahead and enjoy your break." Spy and Engineer sighed and reluctantly left Scout to his wishes as he cockily sat down on the chair. After a few minutes of silence, he heard what sounded like music and shotgun blasts coming from the hallway. Suddenly, a man with skates came in and jumped straight onto the desk, causing Scout to fall over as he grabbed the intelligence and skated off. Soldier then came in trying to shoot him with his shotgun.
"Come back here so I can shoot your brains out you Brazilian maggot!" He yelled. Scout quickly got up, pissed off by what happened and stopped Soldier in his tracks as he took out his Scatter Shot.
(Cue Ninja Sex Bob-omb)
"Relax buddy. I got this." He replied as he ran off after the mysterious man as Soldier gave an honorable salute. "Kick his ass for me son."
FIGHT![]
Scout ran at incredible speeds after Lúcio as he shot his Scatter Shot only for him to dodge each one of them. He then fired his sonic blasters as Scout jumped out of their way. Lúcio then jumped off the wall and kept skating as he and Scout passed Engie and Spy as they watched Scout chase the intruder. The two shot at each other for a while as they soon started to get to the more open area of 2Fort. "All right buddy, I suggest you hand that back before you get merc'd." Scout threatened.
"Sorry, but I need to stop your robots from attacking my country. Hope you understand." Lucio said as he simply skated out. Scout chased in pursuit as Spy and Engineer saw them leaving. The two looked at each other with Engie heading down with Spy following. They saw the two heading out of 2for as they went to get something to follow them.
"ATTENTION! WE HAVE LOST THE BRIEFCASE DUE TO AN OUTSIDE FORCE!" The administrator shouted as the other mercs stopped as they heard the news. They would quickly go after the perpetrator with Demoman and Soldier rocket and sticky jumping, Pyro melting through the fence as Heavy bashed through it with Medic behind him.
Scout and Lúcio continued to shoot at each other with their respective weapons as Lúcio headed out the fence as Scout double jumped after him as they headed to the jet. The two would continue their shoot out through the hot sun as Scout eventually knocking one of Lucio's weapons off his hands.
"Got ya!" He said as Lucio pulled out his other Sound Amplifier. Scout pulled the trigger... only to realize he ran out of ammo. "Crap."
K.O.![]
