Lets talk about the current and upcoming Overwatch characters

What kind of characters do you want to see patched in?

How big do you think the roster will be by the time the game stops getting updates?

A lucha character would be fucking dope. Make him a tank that channels the power of his Aztec ancestors or some shit. He'd do the most damage out of every tank, but have shit range because he'd have to get right in their face to fuck them up.

>>340087147

Ana Amari (Sniper)
Soundquake (Tank)
Doomfist (Probably Tank)
Sombra (Support Sniper)
Athena
Liao

Amari (Pharah's mum) may end up being Sombra, as a result of some backstory we don't have yet. Doomfist and Soundquake were name dropped from day one and have a few artistic depictions floating around if i recall. They both look/sound Tank-y. A robot with the Athena logo on it's forehead also appears in art, suggesting that Winston's computer buddy get's a body at some point but idk what roll she would play, and a recent blog post mentioned a founding member of Overwatch we have never heard of before named "Liao" don't know what roll they'll play either.

I personally would like to see more supports that support the team in ways other than healing. Things like symmetra's teleporter and Lucio's speed boost but more focused on that and less about boosting ally HP.

I'm thinking the roster is going to be large compared to what it is now, but I doubt it would get to DOTA/League levels of size. Adding that many characters would be a balancing nightmare.

Friend's idea for a character
Assault melee character with moderate health and solid speed.
>M1 is a trident strike, m2 charges the trident to throw it for solid damage, and when the water-trident throw hits, it explodes and deals splash damage.
>Shift fires a stream of water for 1 sec, wherever he's aiming. Leaves his/her nanowater on the floor wherever aimed; travel speed greatly increased while traveling on the water, but enemy speed slowed on it
>E creates an identical clone of water that just goes forward, absorbing shots fired at it, serves as a great distraction/dupe. Lasts a few seconds, but if it takes enough damage or if you attack it, it bursts. Burst has no damage, but massive knockback to you and enemies
>Ultimate is a massive tidal wave as big as Reinhardt shield that just travels forward, blocks all shots and carries enemies away

I have to say, of all the current characters, Mei is proving to become my favorite so far. Just the sheer versatility she brings to a match if you nail it right is fucking amazing.

-Walling off bastions and widomakers from sniping.
-Slowing down payloads with walls and properly timed ice bombs.
-Absolutely devastating 1v1. Being able to go toe to toe with Reaper and nearly every tank reliably aside from say winston or Reinhardt is amazing for disrupting a push.
-Her ice spikes aren't half bad either, they've got a travel time, but I've successfully used them against persistent Torbjorn turrets and bastions who can't figure out where i'm shooting them from.

Biggest frustration of course is if your efforts are not properly timed with your group. I admit I've dropped her ice bombs several times when my team wasn't around and all it did was slow down the enemy team for a bit before they unfroze and got me. And widowmakers and soldier76s still ruin my day if my icewall/block are on cool down, but still, super fun and helpful character if you can play her right.

>>340089134
Yeah I'm curious to see how they're going to handle competitive play with a roster that large. And also how they're going to handle certain levels too. I've already heard 2ndhand how a few unofficial pro matches straight up won't play on the hanamura map due to the first chokepoint being such a pain in the ass for the attacking team.

>M1 fires a barrage of tiny hearts doing more damage the closer you are, but widening and creating a cone the farther away they get Has about the same distance as Meis ice beam.
>M2 fires a magic missile full of stars and hearts
>E sends a large slow moving but high damage heart. If you fire your magic missile through it, the missile becomes faster and stronger, with more splash damage
>SHIFT creates a rainbow bridge that you and teammates can walk on to get up to ledges/on buildings etc.
>ULT is the POWER OF FRIENDSHIP. Gives all teamates a damage and health buff reliant on the distance they are to each other. Amount of damage and health is dependent on how close and how many other teammates are around.

Thoughts? I really just wanted a ridiculous left field character like a magical girl. Someone who fits into the game just enough to work, but is still a strange enough edition to be interesting.

I think it really depends on the route they go with this game. Sense it just came out it is very barebones, but there is a lot of potential to be built up over time depending on how they treat the game. I think the way its going now, the roster will at least double if the community stays alive for the next 4 years. On the other hand, if they are constantly updating it with new modes, heroes, maps, events, etc. Anything to keep the game alive, I can see it getting to the point where we could have over a hundred heroes in the next 5-6 years. Especially if it goes free to play.

Like I said, it depends how they treat it. It could really be the next LoL if they keep the community happy and interested.

I don't even watch anime. I just like when games like this mix together a bunch of different types of characters that barely look like they belong together. See also: Reaper, D.va, Torbjorn, and 76 all being in a game together. Despite the fact that they all pander to a different demographic entirely.

How about a character that's split. It's two short twin girls. One with a shotgun and the other with an uzi. They start the game with one riding atop the other and both fire the guns. Push a button and you play as 1 of the girls and the other freezes in place like a statue. Can't be harmed or moved. Essentially turns into a statue. At any time you can switch to the other girl and statue swap. Also at any time they can walk back to the other and combine to resume dealing 2x firepower.

No idea for an ultimate or other intricacies but that's the basic idea.

>>340089185
Sounds too gimmicky, would fit better into an actual MOBA.

Bit too complicated I think. Plus that would be really difficult for the enemy team. Imagine seeing one of the girls just standing there and not being able to attack her

Frogman character that can stick enemies to walls with a harpoon gun
Can drop hovering sea mines that slowly float towards enemies
>>
>>340098278
Either camp the statue or not. But the threat of her unfreezing and attacking is always there.

Plus the threat varies. 50/50 chance she's shotgun or submachine. It's never the exact same situation.

But I digress. It might be too complicated for overwitch

At least one more healing support so that teams have an option other than Mercy/Lucio literally every game. Sure, Zenyatta can heal, but he has less healing per second that either of them and he's so squishy that running him as the only support is asking for failure.

Another non-healing support would be cool, too.

The rumor has been (for quite some time) that they're working on three internally - two supports and one tank - and that would round out the roster so that every roll has an equal number of heroes. It sounds pretty likely.

Thought of a kind of a cool idea for an omnic character like a month ago. It would be a Solid Snake sort of inspired omnic, who's a bounty hunter of sorts and is kind of an opposite to Zenyatta in terms of belief, aka very violent mentality and kind of racist against humans (basically like how Zarya is against omnics). he could hide under things like boxes (instead of going invisible so the people who don't want a character too much like the spy in the game) and could maybe climb walls like the Super Yakuza Brothers, but maybe not as fast(?). E could be a dart gun that maybe poisons someone to give lasting damage or something. Will iron out the details later, as I'm mostly just coming up with the actual moves right now.

Ult swaps your view to your pet with increased damage and speed and lets you control it for a while but puts your character in harms way.

>Mini Omnic - Support role

>Lowest health in the cast at a mere 100, but is a very effective support at long range and a very small target
>Can cling to walls and run on ceilings, allowing it to hide and navigate the map any way it pleases

>Weapon is a miniature missile launcher with two modes of fire
>Primary is a rapid series of missiles that will target and chase allies in proximity, healing them on impact

>Secondary is a single "wire guided" missile directed by the player's crosshair
>Damage output per shot is pretty good, but only one missile can be out at a time, making overall damage fairly low, especially at long range

>SHIFT - Hitch a Ride on to the back of an ally, able to fire its primary weapon and use E like it were a backpack mounted sentry
>The ally carrying Mini Omnic is slowly healed over time; the rate is very slow (un-amped Lucio slow), his missiles are his main means of healing
>Mini Omnic is effectively invincible while Backpacking, but if the ally dies, Mini Omnic is pretty fucked

>E - Performs a super high leap straight up, scaling several stories
>Works to allow Mini to escape danger, overlook an area outdoors, and immediately cling on to a ceiling rather than running up a wall

>Ultimate - Deploys a Drone Healer that will Backpack on to an ally of choice for X seconds
>The Drone will grant the passive Backpack healing to that ally, but no other features
>Mini can double up on that ally and double the passive healing rate
>Mini Omnic's Ultimate charges very quickly, so he can potentially have several Drones active at once

I really think that overwatch needs a mode similar to ctf where each team has an objective to defend and an objective to attack. Would really add some depth to the game vs. its current state where its 100% rush to combat at all times. In support of this mode I think it would be nice to have a 100% infiltration focused character.

Maybe right click with a cooldown? Like a sniper rifle that kills baddies with LM and revives with RM. And spammable health pickups like Torbjorn's armor.

Sparks was kind of like that in Dirty Bomb. She had a chargeable rail gun sort of thing that can revive downed teammates and can pick off enemies with a good charged headshot. People called her the Greater Lich Necromancer because she could just spam rez on people before the other team could gib them.

Nah son.

Hero that launches mini-robot drones

He sets up an acts like a health dispenser for his team while the bot leaps around the map shocking people and knocking them over.

He could keep spamming the drones as they die, but there'd be a tradeoff between being too close so people would find you easily, and being too far so you'd have to run back a long way.

New hero concept - DIO

left click - knife toss - can be charged to do more damage. damage equivalent to hanzo's arrows, can bounce once like a scatter shot.

right click - ORA RUSH - blistering melee attack doing knockback equivalent to lucio's Soundwave and damage equivalent to D. Va's meka guns

left shift - ZA WARUDO - Dio stops time for 5 seconds in a space equivalent to 76's biotic field. 10 second cooldown. Dio's cooldowns will be stopped while in ZA WARUDO's field. Anyone and everything caught in this field will be stopped, including projectiles.

E - Implant - Dio shoots a flesh bud that implants itself into an enemy. Flesh bud does no damage, but locks out abilities of the enemy hero for 5 seconds. 7 second cooldown.

Ultimate - ROADO ROLLA DA - Dio leaps into the air and drops a steamroller that instantly destroys what it lands on. Steamroller is to scale and drops after 4 seconds.

400 HP Tank

M1 - Melee attack. Same damage as Reinhardt but faster.

E - Grapple - grab an enemy. They will be stunned and you will be able to use your melee, but neither you or your enemy will be able to move until you kill them or let go of the grapple. 5s cooldown.

Ultimate - Carnival - grab an enemy by the legs and swing them around, dealing damage and knockback to all affected.
