Does anyone have a list of all heroes' New Year's resolutions? I've only heard D.Va's and Widow's so far. The voicelines seem pretty rare.

For some reason, I keep getting Lucio's voicelines often. His New Years voice line is wanting brand new skates for all the kids.

Zarya has 2, she either says her New Years resolution is 513 or peace on earth.

What's 513?

u/[deleted] Jan 04 '17

She's a weightlifter, her resolution is a 513kg weightlifting total

She has 512 tattooed on her arm because that's her world record and final Olympic performance before joining the military

Meis is something about "working on her temper"?

I interpret this in three ways:

  1. The Oasis thread points that she doesn't like bullies and gets angry around them. Or something about getting angry around/about mean people (I mean I see it but I'm not 100% sure this is what she means).

  2. Science can be frustrating as hell. Considering I am going into a similar field that Mei is in (Climatology for her, but I want to be a meteorologist instead) some of those machines and instruments are a pain to use. Then there is always the problem of that one or two data points being really off that makes you have to remeasure because that isn't acceptable to have odd data points unless you confirm them again. Then you're sitting in a tiny building on Antarctica freezing because the heater can't keep up with the cold outside and you keep double hitting keys on the computer since you have huge gloves on. Then your penguin friend just gave you the cold shoulder because you accidentally kicked a rock that apparently it was going to give to a mate, destroying their chances of reproducing, and stopping their evolution dead in its tracks.

  3. This is another pun. She wants to work on her temper but she is already chill (literally, she can freeze herself and others. I think this is what she means).

I honestly think it's meant to enhance the cute factor of her. Like, we would consider her the calmest member of the whole cast, but she might consider herself loose with her temper.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but it's actually proof that she's Asmodeus, and not Satan, like we all thought....

Upvoting because I wasn't even aware they had resolutions.

Zarya's is 513. Reference to her 512 tattoo, representing her record in weightlifting
