Oooh, very nice! I really like how you included minor things people don’t think of, like hitboxes. I too hope the devs see this ^.^

Not sure if another deathball healer is what we need right now, but I really hope it gets added at some point.

Doesn’t really fit Overwatch to be fair. No need for another healer that focuses more on damage than heals, plus this doesn’t look like 3 star difficulty hero.

Design sounds mediocre too but it’s still ok.

It would be difficult. You have to aim to be effective and manage your healing resources. And why do you think it doesn’t fit?

We don’t need that type of support yet. It will mess up hero balance overall.

That doesn’t mean it doesn’t fit. I know that it’s a weird support but I think it wouldn’t mess up balance. I agree with you that this isn’t the hero we need right now tho

Pretty neat. I literally just made a post about having a fire or poison-based hero.

I was going more for a chemist who uses gases, poison mist and sludge, but the plant angle is an alluring idea.

Hey, i can’t say that i have read through the whole thing yet… :laughing:
(Totally Bookmarking this tho)

But i must say, that whole Thing Looks Visually Impressive.
(I really wish i knew how to do things like that… :scream_cat:)

I personally think that The base character design is also Highly Intriguing.

How did you do that. It wouldn’t let me do it. It said I couldn’t include links

14

It’s the trust thingy. I just got trust lvl 3 today and welp that’s how I did it. XD
You have to be really active on the forums to get it.

I didnt do the art part http://game-icons.net/

It’s cool, but why another female support?

17

Yes I’m sure Tracer will be very happy to one clip her.

I appreciate the Poisonous Ivy feel of her, but I just want to point out 3 issues

  1. Her crossbow, with that fire rate and reload time, would likely feel VERY clunky to use. The lack of fall-off damage would also mean she would become a better sniper than Zenyatta or Ana, something which honestly should not happen.

  2. Her lack of self-sustain sounds a little dangerous for a hero that has such limited mobility options

  3. Her mobility option sounds fairly add on and does not adhere to the rest of her kit. As a matter of fact, a crossbow sounds pretty strange for a hero that revolves around plants–they just aren’t really related

Another female healer? Sexism!!
Joking, in all honesty, a plant-based hero sounds sick! Always been a fan of Poison Ivy from DC
Sadly, they never seem to have taken a fan-concept and made it (yet!!)

I always wanted a hero in the game that’s ginger and uses purple or pink magic-like abilities like Hisoka from the HxH anime, and you gotta be careful what you wish for… Moira oof

I also wanted a hero with a Kusarigama (Sickle and Chain), and then we got Brigitte, who uses a flail, which is close enough. I was super hyped, but now I hate her with all my guts (lol)

She’s pretty alright in standard modes, but since Deathmatch is my most played gamemode, I suffer… Badly

Honestly this is really good, it sounds like it’d be a really fun hero to play.
