Talk:D.Va

Anyone know what real life player shes based off?
 * I think she was based on gamers in general, not any specific one. --Krupam (talk)--

"Dva" staing for "two" in Russian is very unlikely intentional, it's more like an interesting coincidence. First, there is no basis for her to be affiliated with something in Russian, and second, the word would be used incorrectly. "Dva" is either a neutral form (for example when counting "one, two, three"), or an assigned numeral ("pilot number two"). The correct form to refer to her and her mech would be "Dvoye" - "two of them". Zhnigo (talk) 16:25, 17 May 2016 (UTC)

Added section concerning Song's forename
D.Va's name is Hana Song, 'Hana' is a normal name in Korea, but also means number one in the Korean Language. This could be purposely chosen to represent Song's competitive gamer nature.

Defense matrix
Overwatch abilities often have surprising quirks that players do not realize. I think the wiki should be a place to document those quirks, including projectiles that cannot be eaten by DM.

*Unlike most projectiles, Concussive Blast is unaffected by. However, it is still affected by

This was personally tested by me on April 27 2020 in workshop. I'll double check, and if there is any indication on workshop possibly being buggy in this regard I will change my testing methods. MomoRuns (talk) 16:49, 28 April 2020 (UTC)


 * That list exists and is on the Projectile page. Lightning laxus (talk) 17:57, 28 April 2020 (UTC)


 * Ok the workshop mode I built to test has a flicker where the bot is not correctly using defense matrix. Thank you for the correction Lightning laxus. I'll have to fix my tests. MomoRuns (talk) 17:02, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
