    New Hero teased by the Play Overwatch twitter

    @PlayOverwatch:[BREAKING] Explosions reported at former Overwatch base. Assailant's motives currently unknown. pic.twitter.com

    The tweet has since been taken down but here's an imgur mirror: http://i.imgur.com/IzsSUFH.png

    Not sure who this could be as the silhouette doesn't look like anyone from the official material that was already released. Anyone have any ideas?

    I saw it too last night (10 AM GMT+7 here currently and that tweet was around last night in my time zone)

    Notice anything? I'm gonna assume they're not supposed to announce him this early for w/e reason, but it's still weird... I tweeted them asking about it lol

    Though it could as well be anybody trying to cover themselves since that sillhouette isn't holding the weapon in the pic.

    So someone in twitter told me that "From what I gathered, some people were comparing the tweet to the recent tragedy in South Carolina."

    The way the right elbow is wrapped around something would suggest that he or she would be holding an assault rifle/ sub-machine gun of some sort.

    My guess would be the machine-gun guy to the left of the ninja in the official trailer.

    Could this be the OW hero hinted at in HotS' Commander Raynor skin? You know; the one with the Overwatch symbol on his shoulder.

    That's just Raynor's gear when he's not wearing powered armour.

    His OW patch is just a reference, like the Tracer/Black Widow decals on Tychus' recolours.

    Maybe this guy?

    Now you see it. Now you don't.

    But was where Dalaran?

    The character on the picture attached by the OP seems to be carrying a rifle of some sort. So I don't think it's the mysterious ninja-cyborg dude since the OW characters usually carry only 1 weapon.
