Is This The NEXT Overwatch 2 Tank Hero?

Who is going to be the season 14 tank hero in Overwatch 2? Let’s have a look.
➡️My video on Season 13: • Overwatch 2 Season 13 ...
Season 14 is still a few months away, but we won’t have to wait that long to find out who the next tank hero for Overwatch 2 is going to be. As I mentioned in my preview of season 13, we’ll most likely get a chance to test the new hero somewhere in the next season.

There are THREE junker tanks already-- Roadhog, Queen and Hamster.

[@daftpunkin5912]

I think it might be Effie’s cousin Bisi. He’s a modified talon member that is in jail in numbani and he does share orisa’s color scheme. Also they added a voice line with doom and orisa about Bisi. And the photo on d’va pc is a photo of one of her skins.

Has to be Sound Quake. The name comes after Sigma and is in between Winston.

[@alessandrocatallo797]

That could just be the code name, like Spaceranger for Juno, But in the case it actually is Soundquake it make sense for him to not have a code name because he existed in the lore prior to his release, like Mauga.

[@noisy_eyeball3384]

I'm thinking it's wildebeest because his name has appeared recently in the new lore books and he's explicitly talked about and alphabetically it'd fit in between Sigma and Winston

[@willowthywisp]

Personally, I think it's Harriet Otis (Ashe talks about a "Haz" in an unused interaction, plus there's a line from the Circuit Royal Omnic that talks about Harriet Otis). While Harriet or Otis aren't between Sig and Win, Toad is. There's a streamer mode name called "BeefToad" that could be a hint to future hero, like "Wayf1nder", or "M4rti4n"

3:27 We actually(🤓) have 3 junker tanks, hammond is a junker

[@TheOmnicPost]

That is open for discussion:) Hammond was “born” and experimented on on the moon. He escaped and landed near junkertown where he adjusted his landing pod into the battle mech Wreckingball and became the champion. But that doesn’t necessarily make him a Junker in my opinion. 😁 but like I said. It is open for discussion hehe

[@abbieee69]

If you've fought in the junker town games and become there champion your a junker literally he's got so many sprays related to junker town and he's even got a fair few interactions aswell based around being the champ, Plus the devs even state he's part of junkertown Winston was from the lunar colony aswell but guess what he was one of the founders of overwatch, so does that mean because due to your logic he's not part of overwatch? 🤔

[@aepokkvulpex]

​@abbieee69 💯% agree! No hate OmnicPost, but Hammond fought tooth and nail to count as a junker so he absolutely is!

A month ago you made a video about clues and easter eggs in Anubis Temple, where you could see a ship with a banner that matches the colors and shapes on Sound Quake's armor, and in the hero chart is located alphabetically between Sigma and Winston.

[@SomeFish.]

Sound quake would be cool. I'd love another overwatch tank. After all mauga was a talon heavy. Making the null sector charger a hero would be cool.

Everytime they talk about a new character, I wish it to be Emre Sarioglu. Please blizzard add him.

Thank you for formulating your own thoughts quickly and without fluff AND having an actual opinion on who the new hero is going to be AND for not having a clickbait title- subscribed!

[@Onhyx27]

I was also speculating the name of this tank based on the location of the roster. BUT then I noticed, in the same image, that Juno is not in the same spot as she is now. Probably because was named “Space Ranger” before. Sorry but just saying that we can’t narrow the name based on the character icons location as we thought.

[@Onhyx27]

Juno was located between Moira and Zenyatta. “S”

[@no_i_dont_want_no_slugs]

i love the theory with the name and being between sigma and winston, although tbf Juno is between moira and zen (put their by her working name Space Ranger, probably). so it may just be a temporary name that sets him there, who knows!

[@natetheknight2809]

7:55 As much as I legitimately appreciate the attention to detail in calling this detail out, there’s something that makes me worry it’s not sound evidence. (Pun not intended) That’s because, in the full picture shown at Blizzcon at 0:41, Venture is in their correct place, as they were coming out soon and we were introduced to them with their hero name. If you look towards the right hand side of the picture, though, Juno’s doodle is also present. Yet, she’s set in between Moira and Zen (M-J?-Z) as opposed to the live game, where she fits neatly between Illari and Kiriko (I-J-K) Why? Well it’s probably because, at that Blizzcon, Juno was introduced to the community by their internal codename “Space Ranger”, with the S fitting between (M)oira and (Z)en. If that’s the case it’s likely that our mysterious turtle tank is also alphabetized not by their actual hero name, but by their internal codename.

[@strawberrana]

I feel like we really don't need a fourth Junker tank before we even have one support

[@mishapnevermore6302]

I think it'll be Phreak because of what was at the end of the new season trailer

[@sideburngthepeacebringer27]

Mama Hong please

[@lexington.]

My first thought back when I saw it in the announcement was Tracer's friend Iggy or someone related to them. The punk vibes I got from the image were the driving factor.

[@kingclampz6081]

Next tank is Phreak

[@unclepaul1995]

My Prediction is that Mama Hong is just Fire Mei. The Manslaughter with a Flamethrower. Her Pride have no Regrets and Never be Sorry, and Her weapon is Her Flamethrower Gun. Small Gun, Big Flame.

[@LogiEspacio]

The picture looks like Malphite but with a green mohawk made of crystal

[@averagelid]

he looks like he's from Junkertown

[@strikecaptain121]

I almost feel like it will at least be a known character in the universe solely because they would've been the Blizzcon reveal.

[@vantacyan]

At the end of the season thirteen trailer there's graffiti that's says phreak so looks like that's what we're getting!

[@cowmanmilk8761]

I think its a character on the green haired guys shoulders, like they split apart in the ultimate or something but otherwise remain together

[@GeorgeAce404]

Honestly if Sound Quake has an aura like Lucio's that does different things that'd be pretty cool. Maybe things that de-buff the enemy instead of buff allies. Less damage aura, slow aura, damaging aura, etc. It would probably need a slightly smaller radius though so that it isn't super broken.

[@thed4nimator]

if its a junker, it could be mason howl. the old junker king before jq kicked him out. (in the jq cinematic) he was kinda teased at the end to be left in the wasteland. just some food for thought

[@zc8673]

I think it's gonna be some kind of mutant from the Australian Outback. They've been mentioned before, like in JQs origin, but we've yet to see one. (Not including the spider lady from concept art, who's not canon as far as we know)

[@Skele_Rat]

I might become a main of a tank that uses a Morningstar, no jokes.

[@thesquirtlesquad8446]

Also in the hero icon shot you can see Juno after Moira likely because they were coded as “Space Ranger” originally, so not sure the tanks placement for the name will be relevant, but as that stands they are towards the bottom

[@cedriclopez7012]

7:04 that is part of his shoulder wings

[@israelsmith6122]

honestly i think it is greta knuckles but in her human form. the way that picture is hung up. to me it feels like a sort of "Hall of heros". it gives the vibe that greta was someone improtant but they died, so as commemeration they hung up that cool picture of her doing her signature pose and so on. i think gretta couldve died and possibly be turn into some type of omnic/junker/human hybrid using the spare scrap parts you showed us earlier in the video. seeing as she was a champian or maybe someone who loves being popular it makes sense why in the onmic form she chose to keep her mowhawk and her iron jaw since thats what stands out n her the most aside from her knuckles. obviously since she no longer have her human hands she no longer can use ounch based abilities so we wouldnt have to worry about her being too similar to doomfist. i have no idea what abilities she have now after the transformation but i hope they are cool

[@tormxnta]

Hope they change their minds and give us Mama Hong or Brit next.

This hero might get named Soundquake like you said, hopefully with some interesting sound abilities unlike anything we've seen on Lúcio. Though, at the same time, there's also just as much of a chance of the name being a placeholder. After all, Juno is between Moira and Zen in the pre release
