A highlight of Overwatch 2’s Pachi Marchi event is that Roadhog himself actually provides his pipes as the acting announcer.
This comes with the hilarious revelation that the quiet criminal seems to have a full list of approximated names for the whole gang, ranging from the bleeding obvious (“Princess Icicle” for Mei) to the outright respectful (“Her Ladyship, the Queen” for Junker Queen) and the brilliantly weird (“Thunko, the Metal Man” for Ramattra).
Check out the captured video below and see a whole new range of names for your favourite Overwatch chums:

Justin Groot (no relation to the tree) actually serves as a Senior Writer & Narrative Designer for the Overwatch 2 team, and was instrumental in making this amazing bit of humour happen. It’s random little details like this that enrich the Overwatch world, and will always be my favourite kind of goofy fun.
The Pachi Marchi event is live now until April 4, With a range of challenges to complete in the limited Catch-A-Mari game mode rewarding player icons, player titles and the Pachimari Roadhog skin.
