Blizzard is probably going to have to canonically kill off one or more heroes at some point. It might not be soon. It most likely wont effect the multiplayer roster. But it’s more likely to happen than not.
So let’s have some fun with this. Let’s have a dead pool! 4 guess limit. Keep it light hearted. And even if you want to call me [something that will make your post show up a day late] at least post your best guesses so you aren’t completely wasting my time.
1 Doomfist: The Doomfist we know isn’t the first. He’s a wanted criminal who is not sneaky. And some of the most powerful people in the world want him dead. And he’s not very young. I see Akande Ogundimu meeting his end only to be replaced by a heroic version.
2 Reinhardt: It’s not just that he’s old or the oldest. He’s also the only hero who doesn’t really have anywhere left to go as a character. He’s redeemed himself. He’s learned all the lessons. He’s made the arc. He’s become a mentor charter. And we all know what happens to them. I see him being killed in a heroic battle saving others. And I bet money the short is titled “Hammer Down.”
- : Hanzo: What can I say? He just kind of gives me a “Dead man walking” vibe.
4 McCree: Not only have they basically given him a replacement, but there are a lot of people complaining that his primary weapon is useless. If they suddenly decided someone had to die I see him as being on a lot of people’s minds.
