Everyone remembers soundboard pranks, but what about when the actual voice actor plays alongside you over the mic?

Matthew Mercer officially trolls players over voice chat in Overwatch

Everyone remembers soundboard pranks, but what about when the actual voice actor plays alongside you over the mic?

Matthew Mercer – the voice of McCree – was spotted on Twitter as bragging about his latest Play of the Game. Who was he playing? The very character he voices of course!

In the following clip we see Matt taking out several players in Overwatch‘s Hollywood map while playing on defense. The clip’s pretty great to say the least.

That’s not even the best part though.

Some of Mercer’s fans on Twitter started asking questions about what Mercer likes to do during his games. Apparently he’s a fan of trolling the players a bit with his voice talents.

Needless to say, it’d be pretty cool to play beside any voice actor that brought your favorite video game characters to life. However, the fact that Mercer’s actively doing this makes me wish I could run into “Mercenary” in Overwatch sometime in the future.

Hopefully McCree’s voice actor decides to start posting videos of him talking to players over the microphone. It would make for some serious YouTube gold!
