The Unprecedented Playtime of PrincessDva
Overwatch 2 fan and Redditor OG256 recently shared an image of a player they encountered in Quick Play who may be D.Va’s biggest fan. Fittingly named PrincessDva, this player has over 20,000 hours logged in-game as D.Va across all game modes, while having no more than 80 hours on any other Overwatch 2 hero. This staggering amount of time solidifies them as one of the MEKA pilot’s most diehard fans.
At press time, Overwatch 1 came out 2,773 days ago. This means PrincessDva has been in-game as D.Va for about 30% of the time since the original release of Overwatch, or approximately seven hours every day since the game’s launch more than seven and a half years ago.
Interestingly enough, over 14,000 of PrincessDva’s D.Va hours were in Game Browser, meaning the majority of their time was in custom games. They also have over 5,000 hours in Unranked, Arcade, and Competitive Overwatch 2 games, which is impressive in its own right.
Some players believe much of PrincessDva’s time in the Game Browser was probably spent AFK, especially given they had only 34,459 wins, and that much of their time was spent in custom games. Even if that is the case, however, fans couldn’t help but be impressed with this staggering amount of time as D.Va, especially since it doesn’t count time between matches or on the Overwatch 2 main menu.
PrincessDva has the top 500 player icon for D.Va, solidifying their impressive skills to match their dedication to the Overwatch 2 hero.
The Impact of PrincessDva's Dedication
PrincessDva's dedication to playing as D.Va has not gone unnoticed. Their incredible playtime totals have astounded the Overwatch 2 community, sparking discussions and admiration for their unwavering commitment to the hero. Despite the debate surrounding their playstyle and tactics, there's no denying that PrincessDva's dedication and skill as D.Va have left an indelible mark on the Overwatch 2 landscape.
