Reaper, real name Gabriel Reyes, is one of the original heroes in Blizzard's team shooter Overwatch, released in 2016 and voiced by Keith Ferguson. His in-game voice lines are short, menacing quips meant to play during matches, and players quickly began clipping them for streams and edits outside the game. This line became a reusable reaction because it captures Reaper's personality in a few words: reluctant respect from a character who rarely praises anyone, making it funny when applied to ordinary wins and fails.
