News:: What type of hero do you want to see next in Overwatch?

After its initial launch, Blizzard has gone into overdrive to address the support meta in Overwatch with its add-on cast members. While we started with the offense-minded Sombra, we eventually got Ana, Moira, and Brigitte (on top of Doomfist and Orisa), the three of which are supports.

With Brigitte being so freshly introduced (and not playable in competitive for a bit), it's tough to divine where the meta is going to swing, but that doesn't mean you can't build your own personal wishlist of what you'd want out of the game. Many folks initially speculated for months and added Doomfist to their lists, but after that I haven't seen a collective zestiest sort of "community need."

I'm going for a more lore-based angle here, as I just want more Talon baddies. Moira and her strong connection to characters like Reaper was a nice start, but we currently have an overwhelming amount of "good guys" or those tangentially working on the side of the Overwatch organization, compared to evil characters (even Junkrat and Roadhog, while dastardly in appearance, are more Chaotic Neutral than anything).

It's a weird totally "me" request as I can't think of anything mechanically that I'd want right now (the game is in a pretty good place), but I want to hear your ideas!
