- —Tracer
Agent Lena Oxton, also known as Tracer, is one of the main protagonists of the Overwatch series. She appeared in the 66th episode of Death Battle, Tracer VS Scout where she fought against The Scout from the Team Fortress series.
History
Lena Oxton was the youngest ace pilot to participate in the worldwide war between humans and machines, and her status made her a worthy test subject for the OWX-01 Slipstream, a prototype fighter jet with the ability to teleport itself. Unfortunately, the Slipstream's teleportation matrix malfunctioned on its first test flight, and it never reappeared. Lena was presumed dead until a ghostly apparition of her began appearing over the next couple of months. It turned out that the Slipstream had caused her to become detached from time itself, and she could only appear for brief periods as a ghost. Her career would have been over if the scientist gorilla, Winston, hadn't come in. The ape managed to invent and equip her with a chronal accelerator, a device capable of anchoring her to the present. In addition, it gave her the ability to control her own time, speeding or slowing it down at will. It was after then Lena would be recruited into the Overwatch program, a task force of soldiers, scientists, and more, to maintain order and protection in the world, under her new codename, "Tracer".
