Echo Ability Speculation

Please dear Jeff all mighty let Echo be a support main healer please…


New Hero: Echo
Support
100 HP 150 SHIELDS

Passive: Hover - Echo’s “wings” allows her to maneuver any direction (up down left right) in short bursts (think 2.5 seconds) to let her get access to new positions as long as she has charges (charges are on a cooldown with max 3 charges)

Primary: Pulse Blast - A slow firing projectile with high speed that deals low impact damage, but explodes soon after dealing additional damage and deals increased damage to shields and enemies with shield HP (refer to Zero Hour cinematic).

Secondary: Scatter Blast - A high damage shotgun like blast that uses all your ammo, but with very short range and you have to be above a certain ammo count to use it.

Ability 1: Nano-swarm - Send a swarm of nano bots to heal your allies that acts similar to a Zen orb.
Let’s say your tank is getting a lot of focus, you can send your nano bots to heal them (lets say an arbitrary 75 healing/sec to keep this simple). However, if a team fight breaks out, you can split up your nano bots to a max of 3 people so they each receive healing, though in smaller dosages (25/second per person).
You can not send out more/reallocate them until you recall them by holding down the button.

Ability 2: Overclock - Increase your healing output by 40%, but it uses up two of your charges and is on a 35 second cooldown.

Ultimate: Liao’s Echo - Grants you the ability to fly indefinitely for the duration of the ultimate. Echo deals increased damage while everyone in a radius has their cooldowns countdown quicker and receives a nano bot that heals a considerable amount (if we were to go off our arbitrary numbers earlier, we can say 50 heals/second). The ult lasts for 15 seconds

her hitbox is not large there is no need for 250HP.

If she indeed has flying with no self defence but that flying, she will not be behind a tank as much if she up in the air.

Her vurnerability to snipers would be off the charts.
An extra 50shp would not be much to a sniper.

just a theory.

I get the feeling she’ll have a shiiiiiiiiield generator type ability.

Her primary will boop opponents back by 5m when hit, with every bullet.

Her E will be a stun.

Her shift will be an aoe boop.

Her ult will blind every opponent around her within a 20m radius.

She will have a passive that will stun every opponent within 5m upon death.

Oh, and she will have a spammable rightclick that will both boop and stun an opponent.

Can’t wait to play against her.

YeAhhhhh

I’m excited!!!

No, that belongs to Symmetra.

If it ain’t on Symmetra, I don’t want it.

Period.

But Echo can have literally anything else. Sigma stole Sym’s barrier, and as much as I’m already loving Echo, I will be seriously miffed if she steals the Shield Generator.

Dab: Insta kills everyone with cringe

Proceeds to die just from writing this

I just want her to be immune to headshot damage.
