[@cyborg2254]

I have thoughts on you constantly saying “they” and “their” when we’re looking at what is obviously a male

[@oilslick710]

The quality of the trailer rendering was dismal. I thought it was my phone at first....

[@MarvelousButter]

@@cyborg2254 who cares also he does use he/him for Hazard at 1:29 stop being dumb

[@hugallurfriends]

why does his design look like they turned BOB into a human and made him freaky

[@richardkern112]

They stole Sigma's face

[@oraciogilles6558]

phreaky*

[@charmedruby]

i've always thought that bob should have been a playable character tbh lol

[@aylorbs]

this was my first thought actually

[@e3vL1]

​@@richardkern112 sigma with a nose ring accessory*

[@TheAstrobiologistOW]

So he's a Scottish Cyberpunk Edgerunners character, mantis blades and all, who uses Halo's needler crystals. Got it.

[@BenDover-rk3sz]

THATS WHAT I SAID

[@Illmare]

Bros at Blizzard saw David Martinez and said YOINK.

[@justaguywithapowerpole]

He also shoots up shimmer just like Glasgow heroin addicts

[@JustNEXSUS]

Ngl, the mohawk guy everyone was speculating to be the character, looked more cool. Hell, the black girl in the trailer looks cool too, but no, it's another big buff guy with a huge weapon and a huge head hit box im complaining. i just woke up. I hope he is fun to play

[@Xenora_On]

Yeah, it's the only things that I disliked about him for now. He looks like Mauga, I mean, I love Mauga and the fact that he's a big buff guy is cool for him. But not so sure for Hazard. The concept art of Phreak on project titan looked much cooler for him to be more messy on his look. He just remind me of Mauga with a little bit of Sigma too, kinda sad about it :/ Overall the heros himself looks nice and I can't wait to learn more and listening to his interaction ❤

[@jamesperrott1]

"its another big buff guy" we literally dont have anyone with his body type in the game, the closest is literally BOB who isnt a playable hero. Youre clearly just trying to compare him to Mauga, even though hes totally unique from him.

[@ReignHinman]

i’m gonna need the queen with the braids added as a DPS at some point

[@CuzzieGaming]

Yessssssss I was saying same thing the chick with the braids needs be playable!!

[@FantasmaEspada]

I JUST SAID STATED THAT EARLIER TO MY HOMIES

[@chocolantrosa]

Nah mama hong and jet pack cat first

[@CuzzieGaming]

@@chocolantrosa mama hong would be awesome!!!!!!

[@RacingSnails64]

Haha yeah I'm in love with her

[@Drakuma35]

I love this guy already It is a little weird though, I know that first piece of art was likely early concept, but hazard looks nothing like it

[@bellingtoned]

Yeah. Like the idea and look but I kinda miss the freak part. Cause he really isn't anything weird. I hope we're gonna get a genuine monster character again

[@colonzero6329]

fr i was hoping he’d have the green mowhawk

[@antonioescobar8493]

It was early concept before overwatch even started there’s no way they were gonna go back to that concept

[@YazzPott]

@@antonioescobar8493it was literally a screenshot from OW2. At blizzcon with the Venture reveal, he still looked like a monster with a green mohawk. So at least then, the design was still pretty similar to the Titan design.

[@rucksack_kh]

@@bellingtoned I don't think it's like they're actually freaks. In the backstory video, I take it as they were abandoned by their government and only given the bare minimum to survive but they had to find comradery in each other and use illegal methods to fix themselves making them outcasts, or FREAKS, of societal norms. They could have gone a lot further with it but it was very unclear. Hopefully they go more in depth in the actual game.

[@Joek227]

That's a MFing mantis blade, and i BETTER be able to use it in his kit

[@keyonhall9180]

Exactly like I love playing Tank if you can use his blade like you can use it like Junker Queens slash

[@dragonofsteel3021]

It's probably his melee

[@keyonhall9180]

@@dragonofsteel3021 as long as it's as cool as it looks

[@BanishedHand]

How dare they make Hanzo cover up his chest while they let this guy (and Mauga) have their big unnaturals out. Its just unfair.

[@andreches011]

cause hanzo its not a hoe (except for cass)

[@aeonbloodmoon]

His voice doesn’t fit his body type at all. Maybe it should be a bit deeper? It’s so off putting. His accent is awesome tho.

[@bruniverso2147]

Ikr, it's a weird character, he sounds and looks weird to me

[@KumaOso16]

It doesn't work like that in real life. You've got plenty of naturally big guys with an average-ish pitch and you've got real skinny dudes with voices deeper than a pit. It all depends on their DNA's testosterone distribution.

[@Hazel776FE]

I just think his heads too small

[@CuzzieGaming]

I love his voice it does sound very young and does not match his body but still sounds good

[@alphacanine1014]

@@KumaOso16 Brock Lesnar is the perfect example of that!

[@Amia_Lily]

His design feels like a background character

Yep I hope to god they don't actually add this ugly generic garbage, It had better be like Forge in Apex Legends and the *actual* hero we get in-game kills them in the trailer

[@Amia_Lily]

They already hoped the model unfortunately the same pretty much

[@93Chowo]

My prediction is that this Arm-Scythe is his mobility-tool where he can also damage multiple enemies when he lands and this Spike-Rain is a Zoning-Tool where he shoots them which can damage enemies and/or afterwards when they "stick around" and enemies step on them so they have to think twice if they take the risk. Tank ultimates are rather for setting up other ultimates like Sigma´s Flux but for Hazard I could imagine he gains a buff through absorbing more of this liquid and even transforms like Winston and interrupts the enemies.

[@Phobie_2000]

I like that stuff actually happened in this Hero trailer instead of Juno’s trailer where she just kicked a rock and that’s it. I think the animation in this one was much better too.

[@AB-jt4rs]

maybe we were watching different trailers but Junos trailer was very clearly animated way better. This one had fancy effects but the animation was stiff and dull, arcs were sloppy, and the cinematography was all over the place and had no purpose

[@HasturBeta]

Did it? I have watched it several times an still can't remember anything that took place

[@caleb_dume]

Juno’s was undoubtedly better. This one was extremely weird. Huge step down in quality. Hazard looks interesting tho.

[@kelico8407]

I think you are mistaking better animation with stylisation? Imo, the animation quality wise is on par, this one is just way more stylised

[@chaitanyadabbiru6535]

Tbh its very clear they dont have a proper cinematics team. Because this is sloppy work

[@sovereign611]

1:19 he is getting crazy backshots dude

[@justpuffcakesfromdiscord4648]

i like hazard’s design- but you know what i would like more? suzy added as a hero they look so cute

[@reigner-brown]

Thank you wtf everyone wants the other girl added but I love the flower robot girl 😭

[@FukuruSlop]

She could either be a dps or healer because judging by the cinematic she is able to hack but also helps out Hazard... But other than that she would seem kind of basic WHICH SUCKS because WE NEED MORE OMNIC HEROES!!

[@rucksack_kh]

I like better character writing over fanservice :)

[@FukuruSlop]

@@rucksack_kh well it's too late now so why bother :P

[@brycenb2994]

[@monkeybrain0212]

He's crossed between Chesnaught, Bowser and Shrek with a lifeweaver doo. Not what I expected but I'm always interested to see a new hero! ❤

[@Grumoire]

Omg I didn't realize how much the dude is built like chestnaught lmao

[@bellingtoned]

Tbh I've always loved cheatnaughts shape and your correct. Guess I gotta check him out when he comes out

[@Suicidalsheep]

😂 i was just thinking blud looks like chesnaught 😂

[@miwky406]

I think his primary fire is going to be a precise, hard-hitting, single-shot projectile (or maybe a shot that shatters/splinters crystals into shrapnel?) Secondary fire may be some kind of shotgun or flak (Might have a passive that causes enemies to explode for more damage when hit with a number of shots?) I think he'll have the mantis-blade leaping attack as a movement tool Looks like he may have the ability to build structures (possibly like Mei) but I'd like it if it was a "stance/mode" where, for a period of time, his primary fire builds crystal structures Finally, the rain of crystal shards is what I think will be his ultimate

[@spaceghostbloq2497]

Bro looks like a skin for Sigma

[@Divine_general_raga]

Or mauga

[@bruniverso2147]

I think he's cool but at the same time I feel confused, he's nothing like what I expected at all, he looks too cute to be a punk

[@neondead2.0.15]

We finally have Needler from Halo in Overwatch.

[@toviwhtiley8691]

What is Life Weaver? Lol

Happy to see another hitscan tank :D Now i can play someone other than mauga when theres annoying pharas 🎷🐛

[@ciach0_]

where did you read that he's hitscan?

[@SP1T7IRE30]

​​@@ciach0_ his arm cannon most likely

[@JayPayaso24]

Good guess, but I think his primary is gonna be more shotgun type. Each soldier he shot at got hit with multiple bullets at once.

[@lifeisgoodnatur3626]

@@JayPayaso24 I didn't see that, maybe it will be. Still an exciting tank edition for sure

Tanks get shotguns, melees and slow projectiles. It's a huge reason why Mauga is a problem, his miniguns should be projectile. They will not be making this mistake again

[@slamdunk6739]

I thought he was a skin for mauga😭

[@silverlilly9178]

i dont like his face he looks too much like a young sigma

[@VeryOW]

Is this possibly Emre? I know the idea was sorta thrown out when the scottish accent was revealed, but his hair looks a LOT like Emre's and i could definitely see this being Emre after aging with the rest of the old OW members. Perhaps he was turkish in ethnicity but lived or grew up in scotland? idk... maybe theres evidence that conflicts with this and it's definitely not him, but I could see it being a situational similar to reaper in a way? honestly, i dont think this is the case, but maybe even somehow switched bodies with emre too perhaps...? just throwing the idea out there but i highly doubt nor want that to be the case. anyways, emre or not, he has a grunkle stan chin... edit: we have m4rti4n or something for a streamer mode name and we've had that since before juno was released... we also have emremain so..?

[@jamesperrott1]

The fact he has a unique design for his arm blade solidifies that it will be an ability, not just a generic attack for the trailer. So far it seems we know all but 1 ability primary fire: single shot crystals secondary fire: unknown ability 1: spawn a huge crystal similar to mei wall, probably has more effects or can be detonated or used to launch enemies ability 2: a jump and slam with the arm blade ultimate: crystal storm in an area also his melee has to use that arm blade, it has to

[@wastoodistracted866]

Time to get phreaky

[@ciarz_]

I don't really like this new type of trailer, they don't nearly work as well as the origin story or gameplay type. It just doesn't feel that exciting, more just welp, here he is. Hazard himself looks too tame, for a cyberpunk rebel punk group they should have gone balls to the walls, but its just some guy. Every time i think that he would have looked better if he was more hunched over and hat three kneejionts, that would really fit with his spikey back. But it's a new tank and the recent heroes have all been really fun to play, so i still can't wait to play him.

[@joemart6887]

I kind of agree that it feels soulless, but that's the current state of Activision Blizzard: a husk, a shadow of its former self

[@skytrooper893]

I’d bet the crystals are some kind of meter that builds up somehow and enhances his kit. Because in the trailer he has crystals all over his gun, but his model at the end does not (could just be a random aesthetic change but still)

[@TarhosTheKnight]

Scotland Forever!!🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@boinggerss1560]

I don’t understand why content creators always act like they haven’t already played him a week before this like every hero that’s come

[@RobinDabank-ls8wp]

When he uses his jump ability Ian mentioned when he had that substance injected into his back, I think that’s his ultimate.

[@SerOtter]

That blade might just be a quick melee animation

[@splinter4161]

Please no!! I need the mantis blade as an actual ability.

[@deadlypancake]

Hell yeah, WIDE Gambit baby let’s go!

[@SugarSamore]

Wouldve preferred the woman phreak member 😭 look at her 💞😔🙏

[@thewtrxgamingstation3197]

Maybe a future DPS character?

[@RacingSnails64]

I know she's gorgeous lol

[@BlazeD_7]

I like him. Definitely looks like one of Moira's experiments. People been saying he looks generic when most of the overwatch heroes are generic. So, I love how he looks. Gives me some cyberpunk vibes

[@Hotspot87]

I'm a bit surprised with his appearance since that teaser we got last year, when Mauga was revealed. Showed us a green haired hero with a tire? I for sure thought they were bringing Greta Knuckles from one of the Junker maps, to the game. Also, the other Phreaks look cool! Maybe they'll be playable too!

[@someGuy-kl7cb]

my guess is: left click is just a normal gun bullet, right click is a knockback shot. shift is probably a leap and dive, the sword probably signifies he wants to land ON a target for more damage. e is probably to create a big crystal, probably to give him cover, or hit people under it, ultimate is probably him raining spikes down, a big aoe attack.

[@sirdragonmoon7092]

He kind of looks generic. The omnic looks more interesting than him. He is going to fall under the illary umbrella of basic looks. I am also confused by how low of security does that place have

[@Kendervader]

So freaking excited 🎉🎉🎉 new tank!!

[@dunnerdag1870]

you can see overwatch team got inspired by cyberpunk the blade is called mantis blades

[@Шизлманизл]

Idk, I think the design looks uninspired. also, what is it with Blizzard and adding redundandt details to the face and costume, to make it more "cyber"-y?

Think it's gonna be like Forge in Apex Fake-out boring hero design that gets killed off by the actual hero we're getting in the full reveal

[@gradytoback4356]

Major design flop

[@hee_hee9964]

YET ANOTHER KIRIKO SKIN

[@lunarlove9086]

Random idea, but he acts like Prism Break from Skylanders. He drops x amount of crystals and shoots his primary at them making a beam 'cage' or tether!

[@Tron3108]

You can see a projectile fly out before the crystal explosion. I think it's a Mei Wall ... He's tank Mei. Plus he had that claw arm which might give them the classic freeze like effect with a grapple

Yeah it looks like he has a chunk of cover he can deploy and maybe detonate in some way

[@rainbowdash4898]

[@Ratoratyrat]

I would love to see all of these characters in the game

[@nicoSVich]

His white male???? WTF Blizzard....

[@sombramemer1230]

Remember when this game cared about its universe and added characters that connected to the factions or maps in a way that made sense. Oh, but Oasis. No Who are these guys? Why are they here? What's their objective? These are all questions this cinematic fails at doing. Let's compared to Sombra's cinematic since it revealed a new character we didn't know a lot about. She is working with Talon but is using them to get what she wants which is power. ALL of those questions were answered properly within that introduction while Hazard or Phreak was not.

[@kingsoflucis1939]

[@kendrickvieraramos]

Tbh it would have been cool if he started as a scrawny skinny Scottish human and his ultimate would have been that he turned into a big deadly lizard 🦎 and his special ability as a big deadly lizard is that he would have used his venom tongue to kill enemies and then when his ultimate finishes he’ll revert back to human

[@dalefletcher7708]

Kind of gives me lifeweaver and rein having a baby feels

[@watchpointoh3354]

(sigh) The story I fell in love with over five years ago really did die after Invasion, didn't it. So many characters that already existed in the prior canon and had potential as future heroes, thrown to the wayside by the writers in favor of brand new ones that each come with their own factions and only serve to clutter the narrative. "The Overwatch I joined was about building the world up, but by the end, we lost sight of our vision." -Sojourn That hot take being given, this guy does remind me of one of Ian's old hero concepts, which also featured a guy who had beef with Moira and utilized some toxic goo as part of his kit.

[@FukuruSlop]

I love Hazard I think he's really cool but as everyone is saying is his design was kind of disappointing! He is handsome and has a badass design, but I guess everyone expected a more mutated monstroud looking guy.
