Rate Overwatch's New Hero Additions!

Ana - 5
She’s fun, but she promotes unhealthy metas. Antinade, sleepdart, and nanoblade are annoying to play against. She’s also caused some pretty bad healing creep.

Sombra - 3
An interesting idea, but doesn’t really work. A hero that revolves around shutting down abilities is inevitably going to be oppressive in a game where most heroes rely heavily on their abilities, unless she’s made otherwise quite weak to compensate. This leads to a “too hot or too cold” balance dilemma that’s always going to leave someone very frustrated.

Orisa - 6
The least bad of all the additions, in my opinion. The shield spam can get annoying, but it’s important for Rein to have competition for his role.

Doomfist - 1
The absolute worst of all the additions. His entire kit is inherently frustrating and unhealthy. Three low-cooldown CC abilities that all provide insane mobility, instakill combos, and overheal, plus an instant escape that doubles as a free kill on an enemy support.

Moira - 3
She doesn’t really add anything interesting. She has no utility, and pretty much just exists to contribute to the healing creep and be annoying with the random damage orb and extremely easy to use and self-healing succ beam giving her cheap kills.

Brigitte - 4
Made with good intentions, but implemented pretty poorly. Could be turned into a good addition by respeccing her to be more focused on countering mobility and supporting her team.

Hammond - 2
One of the worst characters in the game, as far as personality and appearances go. As far as balance goes, he exists mostly just to be an annoying pest. He’s not very good, but adds yet more CC and things to distract you.

Ashe - 4
Haven’t really played her or with her that much yet, but she seems pretty redundant. We already have plenty of snipers and plenty of AoE spam.
