Unannounced heroes

[Deleted]

Ok so we know from previous experience that blizzard like to tease new heroes, what do you think theese unnamed heroes from the trailer might have of abilities just from looking at them? possibly where they are from and what they might be called would be fun to get some theory crafting going

I personally think that 2) is going to be something with damage over time like poison clouds setting traps something like that , think widowmaker but on a bigger scale

[Sky High]

I'd like the guy in the hazmat suit plox.

I personally like the dude with double swords, hope he will be a melee ninja

Is number 5... Pharah's mother? Doesn't Reinhardt have some special dialogue about her to Pharah?

Some of these heroes may be the older generation of Overwatch. Some might even be dead like Doomfist presumably is.

might be, never thought about that

[Mellrod]

Well didn't Blizz say they are content with their current roster and won't release anymore heros until the game is out long enough and they start making updates?

Also, I would love to have a character that just lobs different types of potions everywhere. Pretty much Plague Knight. Each potion could have a unique mechanic.

Isn't Doomfist just a title that gets passed on though? And there is apparently a current one, iirc.

Based on this pic, it could be a family thing.

Yeah I'm not clear on which if any of them is actually dead.

I mean, I got the impression he was somehow.

That's a tank if I ever saw one.

There are more pictures with unknown heroes/skins, this is probably the best compilation of them, it's from before they announced McCree, Lucio, Genji and Roadhog, so ignore those.

So does Soldier 76 I believe.
I think one says her mother would be proud of her, and the other says her mother always wished she would join Overwatch.

To Reinhardt she says something like thank you if I remember correctly, while Soldier 76 she says "You didn't know my mother" or something.

#1 looks like an early version of Roadhog. #5 looks like an early version of Pharah.

[Tenjen]

winston, mercy and i think Tracer has lines for Pharah concerning her mother

[BananaHandsB]

#1: Looks like some sort of tank. He's some sort of cyborg so maybe he's sporting some tech on that other arm. I have no idea what it could be tho.
#2: I like the idea of poison clouds and DoTs but maybe he's more radiation based. A nuke as an ult would be pretty beast.
#3: I can't tell if the bandana is going over his eyes. If it is, he might be some sort of blind daredevil-type hero. I could see some sort of throwing projectile, staff, or duel clubs as a weapon: largely melee. Sees people through walls when they fire their weapons or maybe even move.
#4: No idea, she looks like a telemarketer.
#5: His armor shares a lot of similarities with pharah but perhaps even moreso with reinhart, especially when you compare the face mask. I'm guessing a melee assassin of sorts.

That quote together with the similarities between that woman's armour to Reinhardt's... assuming that's Pharah's mother... inc fan theory.

[Tenjen]

there are a massive number of them.

cone head with large gun (though that might just be an early version of pharah) and screaming bra lady with augmented giant arms catches my interest. the lady with the long rifle and odd shoulders too (early version of widowmaker?). red giant robot. Sexy robot.

9 heroes added since Blizzcon reveal. 1 support. None of those in that picture look like supports.

I also want more supports.

The Winston short shows a bunch of potential new heroes at the end when he initiates the Overwatch Recall signal, all of their names blurred.

Most of them are probably just generic Overwatch members who won't be playable, but some look like character concept illustrations by Arnold Tsang and certainly have the level of detail you'd expect from playable heroes. I'll upload some screengrabs shortly.

[t1saif]

non generic looking dudes here, if someone can insert those pics in my post and shrink them, that would be great

Of them, I'd say that the following are likely most likely actually in development as playable heroes (some of which seen in earlier art), while the rest are likely "extras" created for the Overwatch shorts, comic, etc.: http://imgur.com/EX8peK4
