There’s no way Echo is a DPS hero

We’re already struggling with DPS queue times, all that would do is make the queue times skyrocket. I really hope she’s an off support:)

Imagine actually thinking blizzard and logic go together.

I’m hoping she’s a support but it wouldn’t put it past me if she was a DPS

Based off of the trailer I am guessing she is either tank or support. Something that can protect. There seems to be guilt from Liao over helping to create the omnics and Echo is her way of trying to help. I doubt she would create another killing machine after feeling guilty for her hand in creating all of the other killing machines. I.E “did I make the world a better place?” and “all I wanted was to help the world”

I wanted her to be an off tank since reveal. Support could be cool too, mostly because it gives her more chances to have unique/crazy utility rather than just bullets (like flight? - Having an actual flying tank would have been cool) + plus she looks like a shield support.

In the end though, the devs make what they like and they have a pipeline that is probably difficult to change. Mauga got moved way back because the kit he was supposed to have went to Sigma instead. She could easily end up as a DPS in the end if that is how they originally saw her (unless they decided to ignore her original design and give her another support hero’s kit instead to help the support numbers).

For me, I’ll only be disappointed if she just walks in spraying yellow juice in melee range like every other support. I want more supportive/tank heroes that work best away from the team rather than clumped up eachother’s bums!
