So I recentrly saw a painting in nepal, village, in the room above the small healthpack next to the point… This picture reprensents two characters (a green one holding a sword and a blue one holding a bow). Obviously genji and hanzo… But what’s really puzzling me is that there is a yellow/golden dragon floating the the background of the painting… Could there be a 3rd shimada sibling?

It’s what happens after Hanzo and Genji perform the fusion dance, and become the ultimate ninja-bowman the world has ever seen. It was deemed too powerful in alpha, so it was cast away to the farthest reaches of the netherworld.

Maybe it’s just representing Papa de Shimada?

In the background of Dragons, Sojiro narrates an ancient legend of the Shimadas.
My family tells of an ancient legend about two great dragons brothers: the Dragon of the North Wind, and the Dragon of the South Wind. Together, they upheld balance and harmony in the heavens.
But the two brothers argued over who could better rule their land. Their quarrel turned to rage and their violent struggle darkened the skies, until the Dragon of the South Wind struck down his brother, who fell to earth, shattering the land. The Dragon of the South Wind had triumphed, but as time passed and he realized his solitude, the sweetness of victory turned to ash.
For years, the bereft dragon’s grief threw the world into discord, and he knew only bitterness and sorrow. One day, a stranger called up to the dragon and asked, “O Dragon Lord, why are you so distraught?” The dragon told him, “Seeking power, I killed my brother; but without him, I am lost.” The stranger replied, “You have inflicted wounds upon yourself… but now, you must heal. Walk the earth on two feet as I do; find value in humility. Then, you will find peace.”
The dragon knelt upon the ground. For the first time he was able to clearly see the world around him, and he became human. The stranger revealed himself as his fallen brother; reunited, the two set out to rebuild what they had once destroyed.

Could be there to represent their father
I’ve made about 3 topics since the game came out about how they should have a sister who is a female samurai (I know they aren’t historical but it would be cool) (the missing combat style out of the romanticized feudal Japan, we got the ninja, we got the archer, now we need the samurai)
Plus I really just want more melee heroes, it’s lonely getting all the hate as Brig for being a melee hero
i bet if she is released lets (wait for it) balanced. everyone will like her unlike brig
There’s gonna be a large group of players who will never feel that non-tank melee heroes are balanced, just due to the nature of holding down LMB to spam melee attacks, they can’t fathom that inside an FPS and they think it’s too much value/too easy for the skill required :reaper_shrug:
hides away my shimada sibling joke oc
The thought of another shimada does give me scatter arrow and triple jump 8s dragonblade PTSD
only brig is getting the hate and not for she is melee but because she is easier than other reinhardt. to clarify: reinhardt is punished easily if he keeps holding lmb, he has to play around his kit which can be negated. Sheild can be broken if focused down and if he drops it focus him.
Ult can be blocked and it is buggy anyway. charge, well thats a suicide 99.9999% of time.
about brig she can hold down lmb and can be forgiveing with her inspire(that affects her) and the armor that saves her from one shots (which is kinda stupid). Add on top of that, she can 1v6 get a pick and run away safe and sound with her rally (note i did that before and it was hiliarious XD)
