Incoming Transmission (New Hero Teaser)

Onslaught-12459 · April 20, 2019, 5:03pm

We got a new hero ladies and gents.

Darak-11211 · April 20, 2019, 5:08pm

Yeah, I was expecting something. We get PTR next week and when the event ends, we get the new hero with maybe a new event.

ANDUIN HYPE ANDUIN HYPE ANDUIN HYPE

WereElf-2100 · April 20, 2019, 5:11pm

Looks like a new Fenix skin to me Kappa.

Marrossi-2368 · April 20, 2019, 5:13pm

Hype is real, oh yes

Ocek-1343 · April 20, 2019, 5:13pm

That looks very Anduin-y. But it could be a feint. Probably not.

Damn I wish they had an Imperius teaser.

Ephraim-11147 · April 20, 2019, 5:16pm

Imperius is to grand for these petty teasers that mortals need.

DJPea-1843 · April 20, 2019, 5:18pm

Manduin

GuardWizard-1937 · April 20, 2019, 5:21pm

So much for a new Overwatch hero

Guess Hanzo will still be the newest Overwatch hero then.

sarooke-1793 · April 20, 2019, 5:22pm

I’m 99% sure the next hero will be Anduin now.
I hope he has his lion helmet.

MurlocAggroB-1893 · April 20, 2019, 5:22pm

Could still be Zenyatta, Moira, or Mercy.

(It’s probably Anduin, though)

Ocek-1343 · April 20, 2019, 5:23pm

Now that we’ve established it’s probably Anduin. What will he be? I’m assuming support priest, mostly holy, one shadow ability.

Also, he’s probably melee.

Lastai-1727 · April 20, 2019, 5:24pm

Could be totally anything…

Remember the Deathwing hype and claws, embers gif which ended up being D.VA?

Godfred-1609 · April 20, 2019, 5:27pm

as long as its not a multiclass i’m ok with whatever

Gnarilex-1503 · April 20, 2019, 5:32pm

Given the art style it’s clearly warcraft related. Knowing my spell animations, that ball of light looks more like a paladin spell than a priest spell. So I’m gonna go against everyone else and say we’re getting Tirion Fordring. A true ret paladin wielding The Ashbringer.

SamiSha-21964 · April 20, 2019, 5:35pm

Eh, I’m not sure what to expect like its pretty clear that its Anduin.

rcw-2543 · April 20, 2019, 5:37pm

The color scheme fits, in regards to that spark someone with more of a clue of WoW would need to be asked. I am definitely excited now, while he is not on my list, he will be Support or Healer which is exactly what i like.

SamiSha-21964 · April 20, 2019, 5:39pm

Well more support is better as long as its not Brigitte level design, sorry I felt I was in a different forum for a moment.

Faellin-1448 · April 20, 2019, 5:44pm

If it is Anduin, he’ll probably be a support or healer. It makes the most sense.

But based on BFA, he might end up filling a similar role as Zarya, a semi tanky support who can dish out a good amount of damage under certain conditions.

MurlocAggroB-1893 · April 20, 2019, 5:46pm

I could see that. It would make sense why they held off on his release for as long as they did (if that leak was legit) - they were waiting on the new roles so he’d slot into Support more accurately. It’d be nice to give this new role some love as well, considering only five heroes are in it.
