Has everyone seen these designs made by Korean artist Kirim Son?
They’re really badass and have some great hero concepts and designs featuring disabled heroes.
My favourite is Synæs, but I can see her concept being the hardest to implement well.

Sorry if anyone has already posted this! They’re just pretty awesome
They are cool concepts, but I don’t think people would want to play heroes that have no vision. The sounds one I can see since it is still visualized.
Yeah, I agree! I think playing Synæs is particular would feel a bit clunky, I think the deaf hero is great since it actually implements a lot of things deaf players have asked for and could probably be very playable. And having another setting to enable something similar for other heroes would be a nice addition
I think they would have to do something like daredevil vision(netflix version) to make people play the blind hero.
Honest to god, I would play the crap out of that. I’m biased though, Synæs is bae, plus you get a dog. That just seems an unfair advantage on pickrate right there.
Concept characters almost make me sad sometimes because you know they’re never getting implemented lol
I’m sorry, but it looks like she is wearing a diaper. I just can’t unsee it.
I thought the community didnt want more females
There’s a dude too, but I think he kind of looks a bit like an astronaut and a bit plain compared to the other two? I’m a guy myself but I’m not really bothered by who I play, as long as they’re cool mostly
It will be kind of awkward for me to kill people in a wheelchair (after all this game is shooter), but it’s nice to see the last one as support character like pilot of “Orca” for example (yeah, I know he’s a cop in author’s bio).
