From Nobody to Nightmare: His voice lines imply he used to work at a grocery store and that he was a former gamer.

Exhausted Eyebags: He looks like he lacks sleep, presumably because snipers need to keep an eye out at all times.

Enemy-Detecting Radar: While not a radar per se, his Heartbeat Sensor allows him to mark enemies through walls.

Department of Redundancy Department: 'One shot is all it takes.

Most of his lines are pretty soft-spoken.

Cold Sniper: The snipers in this game aren't as hammy as the other mercenaries, but Vassili is slightly less cold than the other two.

Single headshot from either the MOA or Fel-ix sniper rifles will down anyone barring a Rhino. Possibly subverted because he missed the shot.

Being Personal Isn't Professional: He was hired to shoot his own sister, who was a politician at that time.

He can also throw his Heartbeat Sensor to spot and highlight enemies, even through walls. Keep him back from the frontline, so he can dominate open areas and long corridors. Long-range sniper, great for defending open areas/objectives, but vulnerable up close.

But then who could shoot their own sister? But the point was, Vassili was no longer welcome to work for his own government, so now he contracts out on the open market. Not the target, who was delighted, as were all the people who'd voted for them. It was rather an important shot, with a lot resting on it, and it disappointed a lot of quite important people. World of Ham: Despite all being professionals with some degree of medical, research, combat or engineering experience, the mercenaries ham it up all the time.Wild Card: Being mercenaries, they'll work for the highest bidder.Sociopathic Soldier: All of them enjoy their jobs.Only Known by Their Nickname: Aside from those mentioned above, all of the mercs are identified using their pseudonyms.Leaving Red Eye and Fletcher as the sole representatives of their respective continents the former being Australian, the latter being Nigerian.Four from mainland Europe (Aimee note France, Turtle note Turkey, Javelin note Norway and Phoenix note Spain.Five from Asia, if you include Russia (Arty note China, Kira note Japan, Guardian note South Korea, Sparks note Russia and Thunder note Russia, or so he claims).Six from the US (Phantom, Fragger, Sawbonez, Aura, Hunter and Bushwhacker).Five from the UK (Proxy, Stoker, Skyhammer, Vasili and Rhino).

Multinational Team: While Overwatch now has them beat in sheer variety, there were times when Dirty Bomb at least kept up.

Meaningful Name: All of their names are call signs, which are related to their special abilities.

Large Ham: With the exception of Red Eye and Aimee.

Phantom: We're not soldiers, we're hired guns! There's only one thing we fight for: Cold.
