What do you want the next supp hero to be?

The next support: what should it be? The whole package—the character, the traits, the abilities, the sex, the race—what are y’all hoping for?

For me, it’s got to be an anime cat girl. If my man LW is capable of growing gan-ja out of pure light, then we can have an anime cat girl.

Make her a petite, small-hitboxed, swift melee-based support with infliction-bleed-style damage and AOE-based healing.

With her E ability, “Meow Meow Maddening,” she can pounce on targets and strip their lives away.

With her shift ability, "Meow Meow mobility. “She gets an increased amount of mobility for a short duration.”

With her primary weapon, “Neko Naughty,” she has short-ranged claws that she’s able to melee the enemy with.

With her secondary fire, “Neko nourishment,” she has hit scan tracking-like healing that she’s able to heal her allies with.

With her ultimate “Neko nurturing.” She dashes through her allies, giving them health regeneration and an amplified healing effect for a short duration.

Her lore says she can be one of Moira’s actual successful experiments, unlike that disgraced edge lord.

What do y’all think? And what would you like to see for the next support hero?

I should honestly be a character developer; I’m so good at this. :sunglasses:

That’s the kid who’s in a mech like Dva, right? I honestly don’t know if you might be talking about something else.

I enjoy your idea very much. Let’s just make sure the hitbox is fair and add a bit more to the upper chest and lower back. To make sure she is easy to hit, of course. For balance.

I hope that we finally get off the goody 2 shoes cliche supports.

Someone who is motivated by greed or obsession.

Also please look into what natural fabrics look like as the devs seem to have trouble in that department.

Like my manbot Maximilian, who’s obsessed with numbers?

There are a lot of people betting that it’s going to be him.

Yes please as that would be great.

Nah, I like my games to stay as far away from real-world reality as possible.

I’m not interested in characters who look like us I’m interested in things that don’t correspond to our reality; if they did, then it’d just be boring to me.

Tbh I wish overwatch just copied more league heroes at least for support. Since it’s 5v5 not all supports need to be some super duper heal mode extravaganza support and they can be more utility based for example if they made a braum like hero (albeit ig brig is similar but I hate her) or Janna or sona just straight up cooed any of those three I think all 3 would be fun supports. Or a support with something that effected fire rate or maybe gave infinite ammo for a duration. Just simple buffs like that which aren’t exclusively healing or enemy team nerfs like a support that slowed enemies (that might be awful tho tbh) or a support ult that decreased/increased ult charge etc. I just think less healy more utility would be fun

I want an Italian hero. I would say i want an Argentinian hero too, but I don’t want to be biased by the fact that I’m from Argentina so… yep, I want an Italian hero

I don’t really have a whole lot of creativity, but I just want the next support to be fun. I also hope the devs realize that a bloated kit doesn’t necessarily mean better.

What’s the sense in being so versatile, if you can’t do one thing particularly well? I would rather a more centralized focus where emphasis is put on some key aspects of their kit. Rather than trying to make them do everything.

But that’s just my opinion. It’s better to be good at a few things rather than be somewhat ok at many.
