Board 8 > An Overwatch character gets announced for Smash Bros.

(+) Yeah! (+)

went with the ones that seemed most iconic and also most viable for moveset variety/melee options

Personal choice would be either Roadhog or Reinhardt but I'd also really like to see maybe Orisa or Doomfist even though they're not part of the original cast
---

It would be Tracer whether you want her or not.

I'm honestly not sure

she's the face of it, but she doesn't have the best options for a moveset imo, especially compared to some of the rest of the cast

ftfy

D.Va would be really interesting.

I wonder how they'd handle her leaving getting ejected from her mech?

Yeah, it'd absolutely be Tracer. All of the third party choices have been the face of their game/series.
---

gameplay-wise, dva could be potentially interesting if they figure out how to make meka suit system work. rein would be cool, too.

smash won't allow realistic guns, so reaper, mcree and roadhog are out

and screw tracer
---

doomfist would be fun

it would be Tracer, but I don't know what they'd do with her... she kind of just teleports around and shoots her gun

so like

B: shoot gun
B->: teleport
B v: the thing where she goes back in time
B ^: ????

and then they have to make up all her A attacks
---

Since this is "who would you choose" in the poll and not "who's most likely," I'm going with Lucio.

I mean, we've got Bayonetta and Snake already. I'd argue their guns are more realistic than Roadhog's scrap gun at least. That's more on par with like K. Rool's gun.

B-Up would probably be another teleport

Maybe her B-forward could be a pulse bomb, and then just make her Smash and dash attacks teleport-based?
---

ok wait no

The Overwatch character should be Roadhog and Junkrat together. Have Junkrat ride Roadhog's back or something

hooking people into steel traps sounds like a fun time
---

D.VA would be great. D.VA bomb ultimate smash and then she runs around as Hana until she cant get another Smash to get back in MEKA. Pretty much like Samus going into ZSS >>. Of course they probably go with Tracer ;_;_p

Lucio would be fun too. Bopping people off stage <.<.

if it's not d.va then just cancel everything
---

and then in the next game they'll make MEKA D.Va and Zero Suit D.Va separate characters

as long as they don't give her dumb boots
---

i prefer the solution of giving boots to everyone

Are you serious? All her moves are perfect for smash
---

So D.Va's moveset I'd imagine as

Tilts/Smashes: Combo of Meka melee, taunts, and short-range guns
B: Guns, can slowly move while using
Side B: Missiles
Up B: Boosters, can be aimed up or angled
Down B: Defense Matrix, can move while using
FS: Self-Destruct. Very powerful but leaves her without Meka for about 5-10 seconds, after which she can call it back down again?
---

I think Doomfist would make the most sense given the moves he has, kinda similar to Little Mac
---

I'd like Doomfist or Lucio.
---

Doomfist would be an excellent fit, just don't know if he's popular enough

maybe as a Mii Brawler costume
---

Junkrat is the only character I play as and one of the few characters I actually can stand in the game. So him.
---

Roadhog would be really cool, honestly.
---

Mei is bae.
Though she might be more of an Ice Climber/Rosalina echo...

Tracer

up B Fire Tracer
Neutral B Blaster
Side B Tracer Illusion
Down B reflector

Final Smash: Land Master

Yeah, I left her out given the overlap with her and Ice Climbers

not that overlap has ever stopped them before
---

I'd love tracer. Like her final smash could be a QTE where she warps around planting bombs on people.
---

I dunno how D.Va got in over Tracer considering the memes (that I learned about after the bracket locked).
---

so pretty easy to say it'll be either Tracer or D.Va

what would you like to see for the stage?

Personally I'd vote Junkertown, though I could probably be persuaded in favor of Eichenwalde or Ilios
---

For a stage I'd like to see a battle taking place on the payload with teams fighting around it. Stage Hazards would be them using their Ultimates.

I had the same thought!

though I would make one exception for an Ilios stage with giant pit in the middle
---

Blizzard World would have to be the stage right <.<?
