[Mega Thread ] Give us Assassin

General Discussion

Please give us assassin as a playable hero… She seems a lot fun to play… we really want to play her

Abilities :-

LMB :- Strikes with dual Blade
On clicking LMB 1st she strikes with left blade then again pressing LMB she strikes with her right blade… Then again pressing LMB she strikes with both of her blade crosswise. So she can kill a character of 200 health in 3 strikes in 3 sec using this LMB combo.
Damage :- 60+60+80

RMB :- Blocks incoming attacks holding 2 blades crosswise / Throws Ranged sonic slashes from dual blades with cooldowns

E :- charges towards an enemy with speed and then kill it using LMB… Releases the enemy after doing 1 LMB combo( current retribution ability) / Grapple towards an enemy and then kill it using LMB
Damage:- Stun damage :-50 LMB combo damage :- 60+60+80

Shift :- Moves in super speed from wall to wall

Ultimate :- Spins like tornado with dual blades dealing damages to whoever come in the way

REASON WE WANT ASSASSIN :-

1)we need a melee dps
2)we need a pouncing hunter type character
3)Dual armblades are so badass
4) Assassin seems incredibly fun to play

COMPARISON
And to those who are comparing assassin with tracer and genji…she is nothing like them Tracer can use speed blink only on ground but assassin can use that only on walls .
And I dont know why some thinks assassin like genji… Only because genji has a blade… Does that mean all future heroes with blades are genji?

We dont have a melee dps (again doomfist is not a melee hero) and we need 1 …assassin is perfect for it

SKIN IDEA :-
A hunter type legendary skin is perfect for this assassin
A vampire type halloween skin

EDIT :-
so many players want assassin… Plss blizz make this happen and please developers share your thoughts on assassin if its possible to make her a playable character or not

She seems to have enough unique animations and movesets not to be a Genji skin and a hero instead. I imagine she might be extremely agile, but maybe also really weak (150 HP), pounce on enemies but give them a chance to fight back. Or make pounce an ability where she locks to someone and charges them like Rein, so they have an opportunity to stop her before she stabs them to death.

People have been saying it seems like what Genji used to be. Even the devs said that Genji was horrible to play against in that state so the odds of this happening are really low.

You could say the same about Genji now and people still have trouble with him.

I don’t get the obsession with wanting to add her.

She’d likely play super similar to Genji and would likely reinforce dive meta - which is something the devs are clearly working hard to undo and the community has been pushing for a while.

One of the big guys with the dual guns and charge would be a better addition IMO.

I dont know why people comparing her with genji… Genji uses his blade only during ult but assassin will be able to use her dual blades all time… It will be super fun to play

You can’t spell ‘‘assassin’’ without ‘’*ss’’, ‘‘sass’’ and ‘‘sin’’
