I have a problem in that a lot of the side characters I see have great tank potential.

Recluse: BIG hitbox, tank candidate.
D.mon: That thing’s obviously a tank with it’s beefy build and it’s sword and shield. Add to it the hero’s “Momma Bear personality” and you know she’s watching over her cubs.
Sanjay: Could easily imagine a dude with hardlight constructed armor.
(Think “Armor” from the Xmen:)

Mauga: Clearly he’s the hero version of the Talon Juggernauts, it’s already been said.
Junkerqueen: She’s got some kind of melee weapon, I don’t know if they’ve done a melee focused DPS yet so that sounds tanky based on what we know so far unless they’re throwing us a curveball.

So yeah of the lot I pick D.mon. Just because I’ve wanted her a long time.

I don’t even know what they have in store for a lot of these characters like the fox girl due to the impressions we have being so vague. To that end a lot of these characters could work as supports I suppose. Like Recluse’s spiders could provide team mates with buffs or something, Sanjay could use his projections to improve mobility or shield allies. It’s just that my brain so often, goes straight to tanking, lol.

I’ve seen people propose Dae Hun (sorry for spelling) as a support before. It’s an interesting idea even if we have other mechanics.

What? Where did you get Anubis from

Everyone always talking about D.Mon, Brit, Overlord.
What about Casino? (Green MEKA) His mech looks the coolest to me and i think he’s really underrated.
Sadly however he would probably be a DPS, and we know the least about him.

Tank: Mauga

Support: Pompadour Yakuza

He’s first shown in an animation, he’s shown a firm stance against omnic discrimination, he’s even a lego figure. Let him fight.

Edit: Hah! Found an old post I made from 2019 on this tangent. Who is the Pompadour Yakuza?

Don’t care what role. The name alone is legendary.

Anubis is a God Ai from the first Pharah comic.

Also the first “villain” introduced outside of Talon.
