The Reveal is out!

I’m getting a Soulcalibur Ivy blended with Wakanda vibe.

Female Wakandan Renji for me :'D

Looks like a ranged sonya to me.
And a PC diversity type ivy from soulcalibur, i prefer the original one thanks.

What bothers me quite a bit is that the entire teaser was basically a waste. I mean, the major fun in getting teasers is the guesswork everyone puts in - who could it be this time?
And here we are, with a new hero that was never ever mentioned or hinted at. What were the teasers for again?

Well, I’d say the teasers did their job perfectly. Everyone guessed it’d be a Nexus hero that was bounty hunter.

From that point of view, yes.
But compare them to the Whitemane teasers, with the doors and all. There I was guessing like hell and built up that tension. Here, it’s so… meh.

I at least would have preferred to not show her. Just the trophy wall would have been enough. Is it really a teaser if you show the character - and people still don’t know if it well be her?

At least the kit and the animation is on point for me.

I did not enjoy. What an absolute let down. It seems that the HOTS team has forgotten what the draw of a Blizzard Moba was.

There’s a reason when they showed this trailer for HOTS at the 2013 Blizzcon it got the reaction from the crowd that it did.

I’ll give this new hero a chance, but I agree with everyone that someone we already know and love is always preferrable.

Blizzcon is just a little over 3 months away. I expect a better performance than last year’s to say the least.

I’m pretty sure that if every panel was just a gif on loop of Chris Metzen dancing with money, it would be better PR for Blizzard than last year.
