Alrighty then, there's some lore. Did they mention when she's available to play or anything?
DeathoftheEndless
Crashing this plane... with no survivors!
Looks pretty cool. Uzi, cloak, teleportation device, and some hacking ult maybe?
She's gonna be on the PTR next week

Can we agree this is the weakest character design in the game.

She'll be on PTR on PC next week along with some other modes.

I love Overwatch the game, but Overwatch the animated short is so self-serious and tonally removed from the source material that I find it borderline insufferable to watch.
This wasn't any different.

So the "where is Sombra when you need her?" line got a whole new meaning.
That was an AMAZING SHORT. Why is Blizzard not considering making a movie out of Overwatch is beyond me.

Not really. She is pretty much an oft-used cyberpunk design with green/ blue/ black replaced with purple and pink, but this is a game that has "middle-aged man with leather jacket" and "Cowboy."

Yes. she's from the ARG that was porrly planned and implemented and every single person knew she was just being kept for a Blizzcon reveal where she'd hack into presentation.
Anyway, abilities seem to be:
Recall mine: Place at a point, use again to teleport back there
Invisibility: Probably only for a short time
SMG: shooty bang bang
Ult: block enemy abilities for a period of time (going by how they mention she will interfere with enemy abilities and each thing shown seemed to be a regular ability and nothing big)
Maybe can climb like Genji/Hanzo.
Absolutely not. I think she's one of the better designs.

Then I should probably watch the rest.
Nope.

Invisibility? Mei is going to be an even better pick now, being Overwatch's version of the Pyro for spy checking.
Nah, I quite like her design.

It's only popped up a couple of times, but I'm already sick of undercuts.

Blizzard are so good at this shit that they should just make a feature film at some point.
Nope, I love her design.

You mean Blizzard wasn't playing a sick joke on us?
One of the best imo

I would be more impressed if Street Fighter didn't have the same character

Nah, that has to go to Reaper. Though his design crosses the line into parody in a "so bad it's good" kind of way, which I guess loops around to make it a good design if that was intentional.

This is the first one where I haven't felt that way to be honest, Sombra's pretty fun. When the heck am I gonna get a Roadhog film though?
