Trigger Quote Audio
Hero Selected
Why seek answers when we do not know the question? ▶️
During Set-Up
At relativistic speeds, length contraction causes an increase in the fluid's density. So the question is, does the bullet sink, or float? ▶️
But though the objects are subject to the same acceleration, the thread between them snaps. Fascinating, fascinating! ▶️
Make your preparations. Careful research is effective research. ▶️
Not all of us are scientists, but that's no reason to be careless. ▶️
The delta M of a given ray Q is approximately... Hmpfh. The formula escapes me. ▶️
These phenomena bear further investigation. ▶️
This is my favorite exercise! A test of force, inertia, and... I-I've lost my train of thought. ▶️

Ik sta te popelen!

English: I can't wait to begin!

▶️
*humming a made-up tune* ▶️
Match Start
Are they afraid? Are we? ▶️
Let's test these hypotheses. ▶️
Now, to know the unknown! ▶️
There is much to do! ▶️

Haha! Dit wordt leuk!

English: Haha! This will be fun!

▶️
Match Start
Won Previous Round
Success is a near certainty! ▶️
The conditions are optimal for success! ▶️
The experiment is almost concluded! ▶️
The probabilities of victory are favorable! ▶️
Match Start
Lost Previous Round
Do not conclude the experiment before all the data is in. ▶️
It's all falling apart... We must hold it together! ▶️
Results are still inconclusive; victory may yet be within grasp. ▶️
The experiment has yet to conclude. It isn't a failure yet. ▶️
Match Start
Final Round
All of the variables are in place. Recommence the experiment! ▶️
One last round of tests. Exciting! ▶️
We've reached the final stage. Such immense pressure! ▶️
With this last test, the answer will be made clear! ▶️
Respawn
Ah, a revelation was within my reach... ▶️
Back from the brink once more. *sigh* ▶️
It seems I lost my balance. ▶️
It would be more comfortable if these feet could breathe. (wearing a skin with shoes) ▶️
Now, to begin again. ▶️
That was not the expected result. ▶️
The answer remains nebulous. ▶️
Through hardships, to the stars! ▶️
Was there a miscalculation? ▶️
Science rarely rewards overconfidence. (killed shortly after a multi-kill) ▶️

Alles heeft een reden.

English: Everything has a reason.

▶️
Respawn
Team Kill
My colleagues will return shortly. ▶️
Reinforcements await. ▶️
Where've the others gone? ▶️

Condition restored. ▶️
Much better. ▶️

Burning brighter than a supernova! ▶️

Not to be academic, but I believe that one would call this being on fire. ▶️

Ik ben een uitslover!

English: I'm an overachiever!

▶️

I feel... better. ▶️
Much appreciated. ▶️
*sigh* Thank you.

Ah, where was I? ▶️
A scientific miracle! ▶️
Enemy Resurrected
The enemy has returned to life! But how? ▶️

On Circuit Royal
  • Sigma: Hm... Why does this place feel familiar?
  • Sombra: We've been here, viejito. This is where Max lives.
  • Sigma: Ah, yes, Maximilien! His collection of Greek sculptures is quite charming!
▶️ ▶️ ▶️
Sombra
On Dorado
  • Sigma: My friend, you are from around here, no?
  • Sombra: I used to be, yeah.
  • Sigma: But how could one's place of origin change?
  • Sombra: Let's hope you never know what I mean.
▶️ ▶️ ▶️ ▶️
Sombra
On Oasis
  • Sombra: Moira's not around... think she's hiding anything in her lab?
  • Sigma: Ah... the doctor would likely prefer we respect her privacy.
  • Sombra: Aw, you're so boring, viejito!

Team Kill via Combining Ultimates
  • Sigma: Magnificent electromagnetism!
  • Sombra: You were pretty magnificent yourself, Doc.

▶️ ▶️

Symmetra
  • Sigma: Your work is to be admired! Form and function, working in harmony...
  • Symmetra: Form is vital to function. The two are inseparable, like movement and music.
  • Sigma: Ah, well... Perhaps I will take your word for it.
▶️ ▶️ ▶️
Venture
  • Sigma: If you know what you're looking for, inquiry is unnecessary. But if you don't know, how do you inquire?
  • Venture: Maybe inquire why you're not inquiring. I mean, when I'm not inquiring, I know something's wrong.
Widowmaker
  • Sigma: I saw you at Luna's cabaret the other evening. Would you care to go together sometime?
  • Widowmaker: I prefer to attend events alone.
  • Sigma: Apologies. I wouldn't wish to intrude.
▶️ ▶️ ▶️
Winston
  • Winston: I remember you. You visited the doctor on the lunar colony.
  • Sigma: *sigh* He was a good friend. And you were much smaller back then.
▶️ ▶️
  • Sigma: Do you ever miss it? The moon?
  • Winston: Sometimes. But there's nothing there for me now.
▶️ ▶️
Wrecking Ball
  • Sigma:
    • Remarkable! The subject weaponizes momentum through geometrical navigation...
    • The subject appears to be piloting the device. It may be worth observing further.
  • Wrecking Ball:
    • Stop making the hamster sound boring.
    • The "subject" reminds you he is sitting right here.
▶️ ▶️ ▶️ ▶️
Zarya
  • Zarya: I like your research, Doctor.
  • Sigma: Why, thank you! If I may ask, what intrigues you about it?
  • Zarya: Gravity is my greatest rival, too.
▶️ ▶️ ▶️
  • Sigma: Is it true you share an interest in the study of gravity?
  • Zarya: I shoot black holes at people I don't like.
  • Sigma: Ah! Applied science!
▶️ ▶️ ▶️
Zenyatta
  • Sigma: How does this omnic defy gravity? No repulsors are to be detected!
  • Zenyatta: I owe my gifts to the Iris.
  • Sigma: Oh, the Iris, of course! We've met.
  • Zenyatta: How... fortunate for you.

Junkrat, Mei, Moira or Venture
  • Sigma: If you know what you're looking for, inquiry is unnecessary. But if you don't know... how do you inquire?
  • One of four:
    • Junkrat: Ah, Xeno's Paradox!
    • Mei: Well, maybe you know a little bit, and you keep asking questions until you figure it out!
    • Moira: Ugh. Somehow even more tiresome than the chicken and the egg.
    • Venture: Maybe inquire why you're not inquiring. I mean, when I'm not inquiring, I know something's wrong.

If an impossible Draw condition is reached in a game of Starwatch: Galactic Rescue.

  • A draw? But... how?

Trivia[ | ]

  • Sigma's hero selected voice line may be a reference to The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.
  • Sigma's "Unlimited power" voice line cosmetic is a reference to a famous quote by Palpatine as inspiration for Sigma's Infinite Empire - and by extension, Season 4's theme - comes directly from the Galactic Empire in Star Wars.
  • Sigma's "You are my starlight" voice line cosmetic is probably a reference to 2020 song "Levitating" by Dua Lipa, as the first half of the chorus sings "I got you, moonlight / You're my starlight".
  • Galactic Emperor Sigma will sometimes say “It’s rebellion then… hmph” while respawning. This is a reference to Sheev Palpatine’s “It’s treason then” line in Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.
  • Galactic Emperor Sigma's voice line "Ugh, this sand! I hate it! It's getting everywhere!" is likely a reference to Anakin Skywalker's comment about sand, in which he says "I don't like sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating, and it gets everywhere" in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones.
