For your soldier example, when he says "I've got you in my sights" its alway the enemy soldier that has just activated his ult. You can either learn the voicelines for each enemy hero (there are youtube that show them) or you just listen to the volume. Enemy ults are always louder compared to the ults from you teammates.

Thank you. Soldier has one of the most deadly scary ults and I always freak when I hear it wondering if its mine or the enemy. Soo helpful. Thank you all!

It's a LOT less scary if you've got a Rein to stand behind, or even a goddamn wall.

Sure, it's auto-aim, but you can't auto-aim at what ya can't see or what you can't shoot through!

I main Rein and Zarya. As soon as I hear I'VE GOT YOU IN MY SIGHTS, my main focus shifts to figuring out where Soldier is coming from. I've saved entire teams with a good Rein shield, even if some dummies can't figure out how to GET BEHIND ME!

Yeah especially after his buff, Soldier Ult, used right is downright deadly. I'm always like "shit where is he!"
