As the action heats up, choose game-changing abilities to amplify your Hero’s power and evolve your strategy in real time. Hitting an enemy with Boosters deals 40% increased damage and extends the duration by 0.5 seconds. Convert 100 health to shields. Defense Matrix restores shields based on 25% of its damage absorbed. Stadium Powers are ability-changing upgrades obtainable in the Armory. Each hero has 12 unique Powers to choose from. While ejected from your Mech, gain 40% bonus Max Life and 30% Move Speed. Micro Missiles are replaced with 6 Heavy Rockets, which deal 375% more explosive damage and have 100% increased radius. When you mitigate 150 damage with Defense Matrix, automatically fire 2 Micro Missiles. While using Boosters, Quick Melee has 50% more Attack Speed. Quick Melee eliminations reset the cooldown of Boosters. During Boosters, use Crouch to slam the ground, dealing damage equal to 25% of your max Armor and Shields and knocking up enemies hit.

A former professional gamer, D.Va now puts her skills to use as a mech pilot in defense of South Korea. She and the other pilots, known as the MEKA Squad, stand between their country and the invading Gwishin: a mechanical threat from deep beneath the sea. More than two decades ago, South Korea was attacked by a colossal mechanical monstrosity that rose from the depths of the East China Sea. The massive, lumbering construct caused catastrophic damage to coastal cities before it was driven back beneath the waves. In response, the South Korean government developed a mechanized armored drone unit, called MEKA, to protect urban environments in future engagements with the omnic threat. The government's fears proved to be well founded, as a disturbing pattern of attacks emerged. Every few years, the monstrosity would rise from the sea to assault South Korea and its neighbors. The threat learned from these encounters, often reconfiguring itself in a different form and appearing with new weapons and capabilities. Each incident ended in a stalemate, with the monstrosity defeated but not destroyed. As the threat continued to adapt, it eventually disrupted MEKA's drone-control networks, forcing the military to place pilots in the mechs. Scrambling to find suitable candidates, the government turned to the country's professional gamers, who possessed the necessary reflexes and instincts to operate the mechs' advanced weapons systems. Top stars willingly joined the effort via the nation's compulsory military service, including reigning world champion Hana Song, also known as "D.Va." Famous for her elite skills, D.Va was a fierce competitor who played to win at all costs, and she had a well-earned reputation for showing no mercy to her opponents. D.Va quickly grew in skill to become MEKA’s top pilot, even streaming combat operations to her adoring fans, but the Gwishin threats’ incr

In Overwatch lore, D.Va is a professional eSports gamer from Busan, South Korea. Along with other pro gamers, she is recruited by the Mobile Exo-Force of the Korean Army (MEKA) to help quell an uprising by robotic Omnics, using their video game-playing skills to control weaponized mech suits. Within the game, D.Va is a tank character who can deal a stream of damage and, for a short time, neutralize incoming attacks. If her suit is destroyed, she can eject from it and survive long enough to call in a new suit. Her Ultimate Ability allows her to self-detonate her suit, dealing heavy enough damage to eliminate most characters within line of sight.
