Question, if we have more characters than a team can handle, will there be a rival team? Or is it just bad luck once all spots are filled?

On the Outside
APPEARANCE: Shown above; face-claim is Nam Joo Hyuk
WARDROBE: Lots of bright, obnoxious colors. Alfie is the most comfortable clad in shorts and tee shirts, his most common wear for sessions at home. He can be found in a menagerie of interesting jacket designs while on the go, graphic hoodies, bomber jackets, and the like. Calf-high socks and vibrantly-hued Converse are all part of the aesthetic.
FAVORITE COLOR: Yellows and blues
PERSONALITY: Alfie is the epitome of positive energy. He's cheery and upbeat, ready to tackle any situation with an optimistic mindset. He's comfortable and outgoing socially, but most if not all of his companions are internet friends. He spends a vast majority of his free time clacking away on a keyboard, streaming his video game endeavors to a small but dedicated fanbase. He is known around the Overwatch community for his incredibly high mouse sensitivity and primary Mei gameplay.

Alfie is not easily deterred by small problems, instead seeing them as a means to learn and conquer the next big thing. He is quite talkative and his mind is always buzzing - it should be bothersome, but with his inflections leaking happiness and adoration for every little subject he speaks about, friends, acquaintances, and strangers hardly find enough anger inside of them to tell him to shut it. If the situation calls for it, he's very quiet, trying to focus on and analyse every tiny detail although he bounces on his feet with a mixture of excitement and anxiety. These periods of seriousness are usually quite short-lived, however, as Alfie springs back with smiles and words of encouragement within seconds.

He can be reckless and overexcitable, especially in gameplay, but will acknowledge his actions as the dust settles and apologise for any damage caused. He is aware of his over-the-top nature and tries to soften it as much as he can despite his tendency to get carried. Alfie is a very caring individual and will offer any and all of his support a friend who needs it.
On the Inside
BACKGROUND: Alfie was raised in a very normal environment, living in a small two-story house with his mother, father, and grandmother. His grandmother immigrated to Canada from North Korea with her young daughter, desperate to escape the dictatorship there. Many years after settling in Montreal, Alfie's mother and father met at 17 and 19. They dated for six years before they were married, mainly out of financial difficulty. After they were wed, they pursued long-term careers - his mother as a veterinarian and his father as a social worker. Their financial situation stabilised greatly, and they moved into a house in a quiet neighborhood. One year into their marriage, Alfie was conceived. He was a sunny child fueled by curiosity. He would often get into trouble as a product of his desire to explore. As he grew older, he found himself becoming more and more attached to the idea of gaming - for his seventh birthday he was given a Nintendo GameCube. His passion for video games skyrocketed after this, as more consoles and games came out, he worked harder in harder with chores, day jobs, and with his grades in order to get his hands on the next big thing. At 14, he settled with a personal computer, migrating from console play to smoother mouse and keyboard mechanics. This change sparked his FPS interest, and he swapped from primarily platforming games to more intense shooters. The spontaneous and quick way they were played captured his attention for much longer.

Call of Duty turned into Counter-Strike turned into Team Fortress 2. Slowly, things began to get redundant - Then Overwatch was released. Alfie pre-ordered the game as soon as he could. A new team-based shooter was exactly what he needed. He received a copy of the game shortly after and fell in love. The mechanics were engaging, the characters were interesting, and it was incredibly smooth and fine-tuned to play. Alfie dedicated hours, days, and weeks into the game, pouring his attention into every niche skill needed to play this diverse collection of heroes. As time progressed, Mei was added to the roster and she stood out - a beacon of hope for Alfie. Her devilish, area-denying playstyle was fresh and fun. She could snipe, she could freeze tricky Lucios, she could block an entire objective with her ult. And she was just so cute... while Tracer, McCree, and Zarya had captured his attention for a while, Mei changed everything! Hours began to pile up on her play-time counter. The game was fully released, along with a handful of other heroes.

One year into Overwatch, Alfie had taken his place at the top of the game, wielding an endothermic blaster and a deep passion. Unfortunately, as the game changed and progressed, Mei was shown much less love, forcing Alfie to turn towards Tracer, D.Va, and Genji to aide his team. In Alfie's hands, she was a very strong pick, but just couldn't hold up against the revolution of dive, especially when a few heroes that fit the bill lay under Alfie's belt. Play-time began to even quite nicely. Towards the end of season five, Alfie joined the pro scene, signing for a few small tournaments here and there, stealing first and second place for most and proving to be a valuable asset to the E-sports scene.
EXTRA: Not much for now!
Thats a whole bunch... Makes me kinda feel pathetic...

By the way, i decided that Izzy will definetly know all Lucio lines and annoy everybody by quoting them whenever possible.
 
Don't stress! I tend to get a little carried away. If anything I may have included too much information. Your character sheet is fantastic and very in-depth. I love Isabella already!!! <3
