Jiangshi Mei and Demon Symmetra for me.
 
Offtopic, but yo, that SC2 f2p announcement.

edit: That map looks fun =D Also that Payload burn.

Got your new healer. Hilariously, and ironicly, She has the skills I was talking about with the "life leach" and healing when I was thinking about a Rework for Mercy.

Huh, turns out Moira may have been the one who is responsible for Reaper's current situation.
 
I saw a few people commenting on how Moira gave them Ziggy Stardust vibes.
Well...

Actually, I think Orisa is supposed to be Kel’Thuzad.
 
A trailer for it is up on Twitter.
HE does say Fresh Meat, don't worry.

Also, it's confirmed that Orisa is an "Immortal" which is basically Starcraft 2 Jargon for an upgraded Dragoon.
So that's 6 Crossover skins, and 2 for the big 3 franchises.
Very fair.
 
That's debatably worse than getting nothing at all.
Nope it really isn't.

What were you expecting? doesn't this game update in big expansions? d3 isn't really a "new" game either so of course it isn't blizzards main focus because Overwatch, Hots, Hearthstone, and Wow are much bigger for Blizz rn.

Sounds like you're nitpicking, they have a lot of good stuff going on, that just doesn't include Diablo lol
 
A month before Blizzcon they flatout said there'd be no Diablo news.
If you really want Diablo news, look at Blizzard's job listings. They're asking for help with Diablo stuff.
At best you're looking at a Druid DLC for Diablo 3, and mabye Diablo 4 in 2-5 years.

Anyway, back on topic.
Blizzard released a lot of "Titan" concept art from before it was cancelled, and you can see a lot of character/class concepts from around then.

Fan Favorite is currently "Mama Hong" at the bottom.
 
It's more than likely just a reference to James Mcloud from Highlander.
There's a certain "Jesse Mccree" on the Blizzard staff who regularly gets referenced because his name rolls off the tongue nicely.

But you could also think that, would make just as much sense.
Could've been like
'Well we can't call him Mccloud, why not after Mccree?"
"Hmmmmmm"
 
You never know, we don't have a Scot on the roster currently.
I think all these might have a chance, but some have better chances than others, as you can see some dieas got fused together, diffused, or thrown out entirely
While only a select few barely changed from concept (Reaper especially)

I spy Winston and the top of tracer's head too
I imagine every Ice character got smushed into Mei too

in terms of who we can't see I'm definitely interested in "Steel Pipe, Trucked, Beam Smash"
