Unpopular Opinion on the new teaser

That new teaser was using Hammond as a red herring and it’s teasing the Junker Queen, Change my mind.

Now you may be asking, ah but it’s so clear there’s a monkey in the video and it’s just right there clearly it’s hammond why do you think it’s not? When has blizzard been that blunt with first official clues? In Brigittes they didn’t even have a hint to her it just had torb.

Now take a looksie at this.

This is just the entire picture right? Look at that monkey right in the middle oh so obvious! But what do we have over here

Omnics rights posters?

Now you’d notice the lunar horizons posters first but what’s that underneath it? S, then Yard with a very familiar shadow person? I’m taking a wild guess and saying that says Scrapyard and that oh so familiar shadowy person is

She hates Omnics, all of that anti-omnic propaganda on the walls even the Omnics rights posters make sense if it’s teasing her. They put that monkey there because they knew a lot of people are hoping it’s hammond. Now there is a chance we’ll actually get an omnic because all that anti-omnic stuff could be teasing an Omnics rights leader similar to Mondatta but i think it’s the Junkerqueen. They just wanted to throw us off by using Hammond .

Edit 1: I forgot to add that the Junker Queens voice has been removed from Junkertown

Edit 2: Xaron reminded me of this!

I am not here to change your mind as I believe Junker Queen is actually the most likely candidate (there has never been a more obvious red herring in Hammond, if you ask me). But if these teasers continue in King’s Row, my money is on Emily.

I’ll take any hero as long as it isn’t Hammond…

Tbh I’m not sure how Emily would fit into the game but if they do it right then I’ll fall in love with the idea.

Yeah, I’m not that into having Hammond as a playable hero either.

Yeah yeah it’s Junker Queen. But I’m not very happy if we are getting another kind of macho tanky melee female hero. Can we get a cute boy sniper afterwards?

Oh I guess Hanzo isn’t good enough for you people and your unrealistic standards of male beauty

I’m hoping it’s the Junkertown Queen too, or whatever moniker she ends up using (because “Junkertown Queen” is too long for a hero name), but when you said “unpopular opinion”, I thought it was going to be something very controversial and negative…

If you look further down the center, you will see a word written in yellow that mostly say ‘‘Horizon’’, It’s Hammond.

Well I said unpopular because I know a lot of people really were counting on it being Hammond he’s a super popular hope for the next hero

ikr, it’s time we get a hot guy character. no h0mo tho. all the guys in this game are either robots or grandpas.

He is more than enough for me. Especially in his Scion skin. :heart_eyes_cat:

Are people really considering Emily as a candidate? While I think it would be cool to see her and Tracer fighting side by side, she never struck me as a fighter.

I dunno, Brigitte’s teasers were pretty obvious, but people said the same thing about her. With all the Horizon teasers on the reworked map, plus stuff in Lijiang, Hammond seems more likely. I’ll piss myself with joy if it’s JQ though. Please let me be wrong and OP be right! :pray:t2:

As far as I can tell, it is just me. I never really considered her a fighter either, but she was the first character that popped into my head after watching the teaser.

Well the teasers got more obvious as they came out, that first teaser seemed to be teasing Emre the only nod to her was the fact torb was in it. People didn’t start realizing it was her until the second teaser aka Torbjörns letter to his wife. The first teaser never makes it obvious typically it puts the focus on a red herring which I think in this case is definitely Hammond. I really really want it to be JQ tho

The only reason why I think it might not be Junker Queen is because we’ve had a bunch of female heroes released recently. It would just be weird if they continue that trend.

Ah, that’s true… I’m too scared to get my hopes up though. :persevere:

OR! Maybe it’s Liao? You know, the character we know nothing about, and I’m certain nobody here remembers?
