One with Sombra and Reaper with their interaction on Oasis where Reaper mentions visiting an āold friendā (Moira)
Oasis being a science lab for a spawn room and papers on the desk about Reaperās condition.
As well as in the āMasqueradeā comic showing her in a panel.
Even though they arenāt āhugeā hints, like showing off the hero physically, they were, however, there. Iād say Orisa was definitely pretty much out of the blue, since it hinted at Efi and we werenāt sure her connection to it all.
So look at post number 89 of this thread. It has everything we have on them. Her mech is the big part but we have been fed some on Yuna herself too. I like the little backstory we have so far. Sheās tough and protective. Was on the same esports team before meka. They have a rivalry between eachother. The whole team is extremely competive. Chu compares her animal to a bear. Sheās in charge of the mech about 2x rein in size as a sheild/ brawler tank. During the kaiju fight she took on a the most damage. Currently she and the rest of the squad is fine. They are just recovering in hospital during the short there are also pictures if you donāt know what she looks like
Edit: this was post 89 here.
It comes from a couple places Iāll provide some links for you to go through lol
These are the picks from the short of them. Also Micheal Chu answered some questions about them.
Hereās another picture from the short.
This video displays their mechs on the new busan map in ptr. You really should look at them in game though. You will catch a lot of details about them on a closer inspection.
And then if you go between today and August 22 of Michael chus Twitter he talk about them some. Things like the pilots actual names, thier mechs names. Fun little facts. Little bit of backstory. His Twitter is @westofhouse
Also Iāll list the wikis for you.
They didnāt give us a lot of lore on them yet but they did give us a lot to be suggested or implied.
A neat theory is that casino is tied to maximilien in some way. His mech name is French and when googled shows itās tied to a royal family in Monaco. heās a gambler, and a famous F1 racer. Maximilien runs a casino Monaco. They both hold very common gambling interest and formula 1 is high end. That a pretty big coincidence. He might be a important part of the story that connects overwatch and talon to meka
If it was like rein and baldrich is what they wonāt do because the have the same kit and gear.
The meka squad are all completely different characters in how they operate. None of their mech are alike and are designed to take on diffrent roles to function as a team together. Chu also asked us if they were something we would be interested in. They have the potential to be actual heroes if the devs decide to make them. If you havenāt I reccommend going to the ptr and taking a good look at them. They pretty unique
All we knew about hammond was his name and he came from moon. Even less then Dmon, whos korean, has the largest and most defensive mech, knew dva when younger and is also a pro gamer
the only thing you knew about hammond is all you needed to know since itās supposed to be a teased hero, but you guy are saying sheād be great for lore and stuff when all she is, is a dva.5
We already know more about D.Mon than we did about Hammond, sheās not the same person as D.Va & her relationship to D.Va & the potential conflict between them could actually be worth exploring & show how vastly different their characters are.
I mean, D.Va isnāt even D.Va anymore soā¦
She provides more opportunities for interactions with d.va, more of a foundation for personality and history, and just moves more of emphasis to her organization making them more relevant. She would be great for D.va
