Unsolved Mysteries Q&A Video

The two big shot devs on Overwatch got together to answer some fan questions over on Ars Technica's youtube channel and revealed some crucial inside info: Torbjörn is listening to Destiny's Child on his headphones, there are only two cars with wheels in the entire OW universe, a whole lot of inside info on Hero balance and previous mistakes and more. At the very end of the video they got into the Doomfist matter, not spoiling anything, but judging by some of the PTR datamining and an error code it seems likely he'll be popping by the PTR soon and will be the next Hero!
