None because the cast is already bloated enough with certain characters skills and play-styles stepping on the toes of others.

Focus on the cast as-is and make them balanced, don't dilute the game even more.

Super hot and busty redhead/blue-eyed teen girl that's heavy in gymnastic/parkour ability who gets marketed/previewed up to the point of annoyance only for her to turn into a teen boy every time she gets splashed with water in-game, which is NEVER shown before the character is released.

A very normal looking blond guy in a contemporary clothing (some kind of sweatshirt)

He he's blond haired and about 20 something years old, his name is Juan Tumani and he walks around eating cheetos. And gets cheeto dust everywhere.

His ultimate he goes "*urp~ uh oh... I had ONE TOO MANY...!" and vomits a gamma ray burst of orange anti-matter that obliterates everything in its path.

Guys... get this.



An ant.




You're really tiny, nobody can see you. You can climb on walls.

you have a tiny little gun that does very little damage but there's no way of telling where its coming from

For your ultimate everyone you shot with your little peashooter immediately explodes

I wanna see another war bot like Bastion, except for that it instead went haywire and wants to murder all squishies
>>
>>337169515

A support that has a rifle similar to 76. They would have a short channeled heal that restores full hp but is cancelled on damage (triage), an ability that gives a short duration of infinite ammo with a slow effect for reduced damage (suppressive fire) and maybe an ultimate that supercharges another character momentarily (combat drugs). I'm seeing a female, Danish combat medic who was injured during the Omnic Crisis and put in stasis until now. Maybe she could work for Talon, so we'd have an 'evil' support.

I also want a huge chimeric Omnic abomination doombot tank.

>>337173660
Speaking of which, the lore pretty much says that Talon is some kind of fuckhuge terrorist organization, yet only 1 character out of 21 is part of it.
>>
>>337169515
More builder characters. Maybe a character that turns into a vehicle people can ride that offers protection similar to Reinhardt's shield, but above and in front and it uses your armor and health instead of a renewing shield.

Maybe a jailer type guy that can shock enemies to disable their weapons, and his ulti drops a jail cell on an area. People can shoot out of and into the cell, but they can't move.

Maybe someone that uses gravity, so they "lock-on" an enemy and all their bullets go to the last spot your character had vision of that enemy. It would be a nice way to counter Bastions and Turrets without making it OP. All a Bastion has to do is move a few feet and he would be safe, but if he stays there like an idiot then he will get pasted.

More real Snipers. McCree and Pharah are the only 'snipers' we have besides Widowmaker, and they are still shoot from the hip people.

An offensive-based support. I guess Zen already does this well, but I would like one who doesn't deal direct damage, at least not with their main weapon, instead does poison or some similar DoT thing.

What about a cool zombie girl tank? Kind of a disrupter, instead of get-in/get-out like Winstone and D.Va the goal is more get in and stay in.

Weapon: Short range HP draining ray that can overheal up to 400HP. Right click vomits excess HP in a cone for higher range/damage while slowing enemies.

Skill1: Rushes forward (short range, tiny cd/start up) and tackles an enemy to the ground for 2 seconds with the option of draining or vomiting during that time. Enemies killed by this move leave behind a tombstone.

Skill2: Dives into the ground and lets you move beneath the earth at half speed for up to 3 seconds. Also gives you vision of all tombstones and lets you teleport directly to one. When time is up, you cancel the ability, or teleport you burst from the ground stunning nearby enemies.

Ult: On activation all allies in a moderate area near you become invincibile to damage and all health is converted to a single ultimate armor bar. You can no longer be healed, even with your primary attack, and if you die so does every affected member of your team. If they move outside the range they'll lose their invincibility but still die if your ult ends early. Additionally your primary weapon range is much larger and affects all targets in range. Lasts about 8 seconds.
>>
>>337169515
I'm really surprised they don't have a stealth hero yet

I mean I know the it's kinda overdone but you have to admit invisiible heros that infiltrate and take people down from behind is satisfying as fuck to play
>>

This is unnecessarily complicated. Every abillity in Overwatch can be summarized in 5 words.
>>
>>337171495
this is a fucking great idea holy shit

>e and left shift abilities are something that temporarily fucks with another players mind (sees allied players as enemy players or something) and for his ultimate he straight up gains control of another player for 6 seconds, and can kill people on the other team from the inside, and the only way to stop it would be for the other team to kill the possessed teamate, which would still land you a kill

Only because the game doesn't tell you anything about what skills do or how they work.
It's easy to say you've got a tank that drains HP, uses HP to deal more damage, can tackle people, and has a movement skill that stuns when it ends. Her ultimate is just 5 protect 1 in order to win the point.

Like for McCree it'll tell you that he throws a flashbang. Doesn't tell you how far it goes, how long it stuns people for, or if it does any damage itself.
How much does agent 47's healing zone heal for? Enough. Do his rockets actually do more damage than his gun or is the advantage all in the splash damage?

Also, McCree is only bad if you're stuck on the Stun+Fan level of play. Once you get good you should be able to headshot city everyone with your revolver, saving the fans and stuns for when you actually need them.

What about a metal eating/manipulating superhero?
She could have a 360 parry that absorbs bullets to fill her special meter. By spending that meter she can double in size for more damage and a better viewpoint. Of course that makes her extra vulnerable so she can instantly expel all that metal in a hail of bullets at any time to go back to normal size.
Her weapon is her finger in the shape of a gun using bullets that she absorbed or made during the fight and her alternate fire is a grenade made of the enzymes she uses to eat metal. Does splash damage and especially heavy damage against armor and constructs like turrets or teleporters.

No shit, they literally took each tf2 hero and broke their kit down to a single niche.

That is how they make you require teamwork much heavier than tf2 does.


In overwatch you have about 1/3 the capability to deal with any scenario than you would playing your tf2 counter-part. This makes overwatch a game in which you have to constantly be switching characters.

Zenyatta is more medic than most. You just have an AOE quickfix ult, and a pocket heal that follows players without the beam.

I'd say a support that applies an amount of lifesteal to allies maybe in an AOE, or possibly targeted.

I think if they readjusted her kit's power she could be fine.

Make the E a bigger shield and on a much lower "cd" than it seems to be.


Then change her teleporter to reallocate some of the power. I suggest making her teleporter come online slightly faster, but only allow a number of uses.

The wrangler allows a turret to be controlled manually. Bastion isn't a turret. He's a character.
You could make the same comparison to heavy and wrangler engie as you're making now with bastion. The difference is that it's a character and not a deployable object.

I could totally go for a "blood" themed villian support.


Maybe an ult that slows all enemies around him while he may only move. He could do some villianny dialogue during it.

Only a retard plays Genji like that.

A good Genji should be pestering with shurikens and using their insane mobility from double jumps (that thing scout is really well known for), wall climbs and l-shift dashing to go wherever the fuck they want.
Only going close range to finish off opponents or use their ult.

Genji certainly should not be W+M1ing

Look man if you want to call it a wrangler sentry go ahead. I would say that a dps character with high health, a self heal, and the ability to shit out 450-500 damage per second describes both bastion and heavy perfectly, but it may be that you play bastion by sitting on a single location and acting like a sentry.

>>337183105
I'm not much of a Genji player. I just know that Genji has an ult that melts players at close range, and that he has the reflect. The double jump may make him look like scout, but in a game where almost every character has a mobility move, it makes that aspect feel kind of unimportant compared to the rest of his kit.

Well the biggest one we have and the one with the most images in game is Sombra but from a recent streaming event, like not a few hours ago a Blizzard Dev said they're bringing her back into the garage to re-evaluate her because she was to similar to Black Widow I think? We also know she's a woman from a new sound file off of the Edge Master Skull guy.

Other then that we have Doom Hand from the one city and escort. We also have confirmation that Athena (I think her name is?) is going to be in the game as well because her new symbol is on the computers in one of the map, as well as the concept art (you can see it in the OP's image, sorta looks like an Mac Computer).

We also have extremely VAGUE hints at a Pop-Star/Singer from posters and Rebel/Freedom/Acceptance Robot posters you can find in multiple maps (she is also in OP's image on the far right next to Athenas model)

That's it though besides Hazmat, which Blizzard has gone on record in saying he's going to be a Support.

Oh and lastly, we have some spray paints in the El Dorado along with Sombre which a streamer drastically and heavily implied and showed in a Blizzard related stream a few months back. However it's also said the JSRF Healer does graffiti so I'm not sure.

A lot of heroes need work before we think of adding new ones.
>Soldier 76
His weapon needs to increase spread a tad more for people who hold it down

Needs to require a longer firing time to freeze enemies, it's a bit too fast right now.
Also increase the cooldown of her panic heal by a couple seconds
>D.Va
Just needs a little more firepower, maybe a mouse 2 to fire a larger spread of more bullets
>Roadhog
Just add a couple seconds to his self heal cooldown
>Lucio
Needs diminishing returns on his healing buffs the more he uses them straight off cooldown
>Zenyatta
Orb of Harmony needs a tiny buff, maybe just a little more regeneration.

Everyone else is fine.

A Bastion unit is meant to murder squishies on sight. The game's Bastion had its programming practically wiped from being buried underground for an eternity with the only thing remaining being the ability to perform in combat.

>ult that melts players at close range
It's a melee attack that's a bit better than Reinhardt's and will get you gibbed quick if you try to just rush in with it stupidly.

>he has the reflect
Fine, the one thing he has that is comparable to Pyro, but works on hitscan shots and has a time limit.

> in a game where almost every character has a mobility move
None of them compare to Genji, he can move quickly both vertically and horizontally with no stopping. Everyone else with a mobility move either goes high, goes fast, or in D.VA's case is restricted to 2 seconds of boost and then a cooldown timer.

Nah, they all function differently. Pharah is more reliable than Junkrat, but Junkrat can accomplish more things in a more seat-of-your-pants method. They have a lot of similarities like push abilities, super jumps, and explosions, but the method of using them is very different and neither feels better than the other, just different.

Though I will say that head to head pharah beats junkrat in 1v1 most of the time, but that's not a measure of power level at all.
