Winston is one of the original heroes in Overwatch, Blizzard's team-based shooter, known as a brilliant gorilla scientist who leaps into fights with a shield and tesla cannon. The short phrase has circulated online as a fan and player sound, shared on soundboards by Overwatch players who main or joke about picking him. Its appeal is not a famous in-game quote, but a relatable moment of hero selection, which keeps it useful in edits, streams and reaction clips long after its first uploads.
