Gibby ult = pain and destruction
Bang ult = confusion and chaos
Fun fact, Bangalore's name comes from explosives charges used to advance frontlines in trench warfare by creating large smokescreens allowing for troops and supplies to move for a brief period of time and reposition with relative safety.
The ultimate is an adage to this piece of wartime history.

...a Bangalore torpedo was used to clear objects like barb wire or mine fields allowing troops to advance and they could do this quickly while not being exposed to direct fire... Its basically a giant pipe bomb and allows for quick clearing of obstacles...theres no smoke just a tube filled with explosives to clear a path! Downside to this is it lets the enemy know where you plan to come through, so they would blow multiple up at places sometimes as a diversion to where the actual attack were to happen!
