What kind of character do you want in the game?

I wanted the jet cat.

And another character that uses music, would be dps.

Another single target, long range, hitscan support.

I don’t care what they look like, where they’re from, who they’re attracted to, what their abilities are, what their lore is, if they’re a baddy or a goody, human or otherwise, none of that, I simply want them to have a fun playstyle like Ana’s so I finally have another option when my tanks pick Winston/Dva/Ball/Doom or my dps pick flankers and mosquitoes.

Another MEKA hero. We’ve got twelve Overwatchers, six Talon members (and one former), five omnics, four Junkers, three Shimadas, two Vishkar, and two Lindholms. We need to fill out the faction roster, plus having another mech-based hero would be cool. I think people have been asking for D.Mon for years. Imagine the interactions!

ana mam i think you should try widowmaker, she is a great support to team.

I tried, she’s too hard. Also dps is pretty boring imo. Once you’ve played support in OW, it’s hard to go back to dps and find the game as satisfying.

Maybe something along the lines of a Vampire or something like a Lycanthrope, or an actual shape-shifting Hero (or Villain, or an in-between of sorts in terms of moral compass).

Or a Hero with actual ‘Meta’ level powers, we really don’t have many of those in the OW universe (Reaper, Sigma and… who else? Might be forgetting some, Sombra or Genji don’t really count as they’re just upraded with cybernetics and synthetic tech, same with Widowmaker, maybe Moira can be considered a Meta villain but only barely so, she probably still relies too much on tech).

I’m thinking of something along the lines of the X-Men levels of powers (or a Hero directly inspired by that universe would be cool, since I love the X-Men universe really).

I want an edgy hood mage hero added to the game. Why don’t we have mages yet? The closest to being a mage is zen. I want to see a dps hero that doesn’t really go for flanks but stands more with the team and provides a ton of AOE using elemental abilities. Maybe even switch between 2-3 elements to dish out different damage types.

•Fire is highest dealing damage

•Lightning does about the same damage as winston but in burst and has way higher chaining capabilities that of course goes through barriers.

•ice is a projectile ball that travels like moira orb and simply slows enemies, obviously nothing crazy like how much mei slows down but a hint just enough to slow someone in their tracks.

Ultimate could be an elemental AOE dps spirit bomb, or just a massive meteor that will one shot you if you are in radius. Sort of like doom ult but bigger and can go through walls.

Man can you imagine having to cycle between elements and playing with your team? How cool would that be?

I want a melee based dps character. No genji doesnt count, thats his ult.
We have a melee tank (rein) and a melee support (brig), lets get a melee dps.

Gimme a dps with a buster sword or something idk. That seems like it’d be fun and its a niche the dps are missing.

Flame thrower hero would be nice. The original concept for Ball had him with a flame thrower so they might put that somewhere else eventually.

Felt that. I’ve never been one for hitscan, so DPS isn’t really my role to start. But, Echo is the only DPS rn that gives me the same high as Supports. I go 20-3 or better in most games I play as her. Loved her in OW1, love her now.

Anyways to answer the thread (and like what I say every time) a water-based Tank focused on non-lethal target repositioning with like geysers from the ground or something. I would just love to blast a Genji away with a fire hose is all.

Strong abilities like ramatra has, but has a counter-play, like ramatra again. I don’t want hereos like pharah that 27 heroes cannot even touch her.

game is already having problem with one overpowered granny on both sides and you want to make it double

Where did I say they also needed to have anti, sleep, and nano? Literally all I want is a long range, single target, hitscan support. Even if the rest of their kit is trash. People would play less Ana if we had options, which right now we don’t.

And the game is not having trouble with Ana, specific players are having trouble with Ana. People like to say she is OP because they don’t want to actually deal with her. I get shut down by players all the time because they understand I’m an important target and they pester me until I swap or am just ineffective long enough for their team to progress. If they just leave me alone, of course I’m gonna seem OP. Same reason you don’t just leave a Ball or a Widow or a Pharah or multiple other heroes uncontested. If you let them, they’ll walk all over you. So don’t let them. :woman_shrugging:t4:
