New Hero Concept

General Discussion
1

Hello fellow OW community! I have made a hero concept; any feedback would be much appreciated.

Name: Demir
Role: Tank
Difficulty: 3 stars
Age: 1 week
Country: Turkey
Affiliation: none
Height: 6’5 (same as Zarya)
HP: 500 (100 are shields)

Lore:
During the Omnic Crisis, many types of robots were being made. One of those kinds of robots were called the DM-100. They were supposed to specialize in ranged combat, but were ineffective at first. Since, the DM-100’s were weak, an engineer named Gaige Polat was tasked on improving them. He picked one of the thousands of already made DM-100’s and named it Demir (iron in Turkish), because he was confident that he could make the DM-100’s stronger. One week later, a large explosion shook the factory and blew up the south side of it. Demir had broken out and was on his way to a nearby weapons stronghold. Demir is constantly looking to upgrade himself. Also, Gaige left Demir in a dangerous state where anything the Omnic saw was a threat. As soon as Gaige found out that Demir was missing the next day, the DM-100’s were discontinued immediately and Gaige was fired.

Abilities:

M1: Homing Missiles- slow travel speed with AOE splash damage (12 ammo, 50 damage for a direct hit, 25 for splash, 1.25 sec reload)
Associated Voice Lines:
They’re coming for you!
Just wait and see!

M2: Accelerate- speeds up all active missiles by 25% and increases your movement speed by 15% (8 sec CD)
Associated Voice Lines:
Dodge This!
(Evil Laughter)

Lshift: Deadly Lift-Off- travel up 5m (increases lift off speed when more enemies are nearby) and drop a bomb that detonates after 2 secs (75 damage, 9 sec CD)
Associated Voice Lines:
I left something for you!
Enjoy your gift!

E: Revealing Mist- deploy mist that reveals enemies’ CD’s and gives Demir 50 temporary shields for every enemy ability on CD that is revealed
Associated Voice Lines:
More Power!
Why are you so weak?

Q: Supersonic- fly forward fast and deploy deadly laser beams that bounce off nearby objects (up to 3 times) that split when they bounce
Associated Voice Lines:
Kesin olumu serbest birakmak (unleashing certain death)-hostile
Unleashing certain death!- friendly

Passive: Enemy Intel- Homing missiles’ fire faster when enemy CD’s are known or after bomb detonates and hits at least one enemy

Voice Lines:
I’m deadly and I love it!
Precision is key.
You don’t know what to expect from me!
Senin hakkinda herseyi biliyorum. (I know everything about you.)
No one can stop me!
You can’t overpower this machine!
If I want it, I get it!
Death will always creep up on you.
No one will miss you when you’re gone!
Makineler erkeklerden daha guclu. (Machines are stronger than men.)
I hope you like pain!
Not all Omnics are friendly.
Alin yazisi (It is written on your forehead)- Turkish saying

I think if he is always looking to upgrade his passive could be like what torb use to have when he collected scrap and if demir finds an of scrap then he will upgrade and then his dps and heals will go up slightly. This ends when he gets killed.

Thanks for your feedback.

This is pretty nice, but I’m wondering how the abilities could combo with each other?
Oh, and if the missiles are homing, how can they deal splash damage? I thought homing projectiles are programmed to follow the player and hit them lol
And the “why are you so weak” voice line is funny haha

“Im deadly and i know it”, if Blizz dont add this as a hero im slitting their wrists.

I was thinking that the player could shoot many missiles from far away and use Accelerate to speed them up and deal splash damage. The missiles would explode and deal damage in a radius. That’s what I was thinking. Then you could spam “Why are you so weak” XD

Oh, I see.
I would probably play this character because the missiles are homing, and I can’t aim haha

Thanks! I spent lots of time making Demir fun and hard to play. The voice lines were the most fun to make. “No one can stop me!”
