Seems like Blizzard is releasing 2-3 new characters in Overwatch a year. Any chance Junker Queen could be one of them?

And if so, do you think she'll be a tank?

I want an omnic DPS hero that plays more like soldier than the other DPS heroes.

I could be wrong, but feel like they need to vary up the gender of new characters a bit more, so I wouldn't expect her to be the next one. But I do think the next one will probably either be a Tank or Defense hero. There is some fairly well-founded speculation that the next hero might be Sanjay Korpal as a Tank wearing Hard Light armor.
I wouldn't expect another villain support immediately after Moira.
Maybe defense, based around disrupting and annoying the enemy more than actually attacking them, like the Jockey from Left 4 Dead 2. A beefier, melee version of Sombra.
As for Junker Queen, she looks like a female Roadhog. I could see her kit being a combination of Doomfist's skill-based attacks, but with a blunt weapon that would feel more like Reinhardt's hammer.
Either of these characters could also work as a tactician with AI minions. Squishy "turrets" that would patrol around and harass the enemy. That's a role that doesn't really exist in the game yet.
This is what I'd like to see next, personally. All that's missing for an all Talon-team, now that we got Moira as a Support, is a Tank. I'm all the more disappointed that Doomfist wasn't a Tank, since he seems like the kind of guy who would be leading the charge in a Talon mission.
"Go back...I just want to go back...!"
Sorry, but no. Doomfist is definitely chaotic evil. His only objective is to destroy omnics and cause chaos from that. In turn, anyone who sides with him is also considered evil, Reaper, Moira, Widowmaker, even Sombra to an extent even though it's fairly clear that Sombra would backstab Talon if she found a better ally.
Aren't the Junkers a third faction?
Definitely would like to see more of them. Love their Mad Max style.
Neither Doomfist nor Talon itself is explicitly anti-omnic. There is an omnic member of Talon's inner circle, after all. The only reason why Doomfist and Talon are pushing the conflict between humans and omnics is because Doomfist believes that humanity needs conflict, in general, to advance itself and even those members of Talon who might not necessarily agree with that philosophy still presumably benefit somehow from the continued chaos.
Of all the members of Talon, only Reaper has shown any anti-omnic tendencies, but even then, that might be more the fact that he seems to hate everyone and everything these days, not just omnics specifically.
"Go back...I just want to go back...!"
If you read the comic Doomfist only works with him because he's the best in his field, as soon as he loses his usefulness Doomfist will break him, same as Zarya working with her Omnic hacker to track Sombra, the difference is Zarya didn't and after reading the comic they put out for her probably wouldn't ever without good cause.

How would it be obvious? He was hyped as a hero besides the fact the Doomfist we know wasn't even introduced until he made the appearance in game. We knew of the Doomfist legend and we knew the Overwatch Doomfist was dead.
Well they're clearly a fairly long way along with her character design (seen in posters), voice actor, story (from the Junkertown intro cinematic), and even weapons if we look at those around Junketown so I really wouldn't be surprised if she was as soon as the next hero.
My guess is the next hero will go beta two weeks before uprising and then release when uprising hits and this time uprising will feature blackwatch/future talon doing some behind the scenes of kings row and it will involve Reaper, Moira, McCree and the new talon tank character. My guess is it is Sanjay (Syms boss) in a suit of hard light armor.
If you push a button that finds you a 'random group' and it gives you a random group of people with random skill and random knowledge then you have no right to complain that a 'random group' button did what it was designed to do. The fault lies in your inability to make friends to play with instead of relying on a button designed to be random. It is a 'random group' button, not a 'best of the best' button.
