Pretty creative. Vulcan has a CC ultimate and a lot of utility and damage. So I’d probably put him in the tank category since he functions like an off-tank (zarya,hog,d.va).

Improvements? Probably a passive called Napalm where the fire dot spreads if enemies touch each other.

That would be awesome.

Pretty good, but besides the primary fire it reminds me of my concept Amir.

Ok. Well thanks for understanding. This is why I (and many others) consider you on the list of forum gods.

I have this vision of vulcan’s ultimate with a Mei ult in it.

I approve.

I don’t really consider myself one of those gods, but you just reminded me of it. Get ready for something about it.

I do have a question about the ultimate, does it actually force people to stay within the circle or can they run through it (so the only reason they are “trapped” is the damage)? Can things like blink or pharah get past it?

Think of a Gravaton Surge, but with a higher AoE, at the cost of enemies running around in it. Also, anyway out of a Grav is a way out of the Ring of Fire.

That’s interesting. Curious of the possibilities you could do with that.

COUGH MEI ULT COUGH.

… I need more reasons to play Mei :3.

I don’t know, man. Maybe a former defense category hero. Someone with CC, health regeneration, and is based off of ice.

I got it!!

Or at least, he says he is. I’m convinced he’s a dwarf straight from Khaz Modan.
