We need a crusty old greedy billionaire hero

An actual ability can be:

Like Sombra, “Millionaire,” locks health packs on the field.

  • For allies, they get healing and Over-health when they pick it up.
  • For enemies, they have to pay 3% Ult charge (small) and 5% Ult charge (large) which is given to the Millionaire. Nothing bad happens to the enemy, they just get Over-health (no healing) for 5 seconds which disappears immediately after time expires.
  • He can lock and hold all the health packs in a map for an unlimited amount of time. But the locks are removed on Millionaire’s death.

(cough) Maximillian (cough)

Instead can he be . . . Krusty? :crab:

Yeah, The Billionaire class

Passive #1:

You work for ME!

All the damage his team does charges HIS ULT meter instead of their own.

All the damage HE does gives 1% (divided by his # of teammates, so 0.25%) to their ult meter.

Passive #2

Born Rich

Billionaire starts with 1k health, and caps out at 25k health from his abilities.

E ability
Bootstraps 6 sec cooldown

Billionaire pulls on his own bootstraps and performs a Self cleanse. Clears all CC and debuffs. Give himself a 1000 point heal as well

Shift ability
RENT’S DUE 30 second cooldown

Slams the ground with his cane. Creates a large AOE attack that drains 35% of everyone’s ult charge and gives it 1:1 to billionaire. Enemy team takes 25 health damage per second unless they leave the AOE. Friendly team takes no damage.

Passive #3
Capitalist

Billionaire drains health with any attack. 20% of attack damage converts to health.

Primary fire : large caliber pistol . 200 damage per shot.

Secondary fire : flame thrower.

Q ability
Hard Work

Billionaire shoots an auto aim beam blast that one shots anything regardless of health pool

This is incorrect. The “wealth world” does not do more to help the poor than the middle class, if this were true than policies that benefited the rich would directly benefit people in poverty. The rich benefiting the poor is the basis behind trickle down economics, which we know doesn’t work from U.S. history. If poverty was an issue of people not working hard enough, than people who are working 2+ jobs shouldn’t be living in poverty, but they are.

There are many factors that contribute to poverty and it is a complex issue, and there is not single solution to getting out of poverty. It is not as simple as “just work harder” or “make better decisions”, because there are many factors outside someone’s personal control (race, chronic illness, generational poverty, cost of living, etc.) that can hinder their ability to escape poverty.

I think he’s talking practically. Like, numerous rich people have donated more to charity and established funds and such to help the poor. Bill Gates is a prime example.

By the way, that’s just a fact. You can say “no, because the rich (XYZ)”, but you can’t get around all the donations and such.

On a per-person basis sure.
Aggregated?
…not so sure about that one.

I can at the very least anecdotally confirm this.
When I was young my family had to measure every bite we took so we’d have enough to eat the next day. And there were winters we had to sleep next to a kerosene heater.

And while I’ve never been homeless, I’ve been close enough to know that not every bad thing that happens is due to a lack of effort or knowledge.

My family is far from that now. Some might even say successful. Yes, we worked our tails off, but to say that it was all due to hard work is bull. So many people helped us out over the years or gave us chances or opportunities or favor we didn’t necessarily earn. That additional support, though arguably not much individually, was enough as a whole.

Sometimes people just need a helping hand.

Donations do not solve poverty, but if we’re talking about how rich people are able to donate large sums of money then yeah, that’s true

no way you’re actually defending bobby kotick. actually disgusting.

In OW2 we could couple that with a “tax evasion” passive ability.

This would be pretty cool, I think it could work as a tank.

I had a support hero idea for Maximilien that uses Bullish and Bearish “Zenyatta” style orbs:

Angry Joe’s Corporate Man would be perfect for this.

Ngl, a mobility ability called “tax evasion” would be sick.
