I've been watching the OWCS Bootcamp and here are my initial thoughts on the strength of each hero:
The Cat looks disgustingly broken. Extremely mobile, repositioning tanks up to high ground basically without cooldown is extremely good. Dropping to low ground to contest is no longer a choice to give up position. Insane.
Domina seems pretty solid. Decent sustain and get off me tools plus her barrier seems to be far more useful than you would think considering the long cooldown and the fact you have to commit to its location, kinda like Winston bubble. Ult looks like it can be really good to force important cooldowns or just stop the enemy in their tracks and force them to deal with it. Very excited for her.
Emre seems fine. Pretty simple kit but looks to have decent damage and can prevent flankers from diving a little more aggressively since his lifesteal seems great for dueling. Maybe not the most proactive character of all time, honestly think he'll play closer to the Cassidy role over the Soldier role.
Anran really looking like a wet noodle character when compared to her peers. The coughing baby to the hydrogen bomb that is Vendetta.
Mizuki really wasn't being highlighted which makes sense for a main support. Can't get a great grasp on him strength wise because of it. Think he'll be good, but why play him over a lucio or brig is the big question. I saw Falcons tried a Queen Double MS comp and it looked ok but I don't think that'll last
Since there with be 5 characters coming next week, I have 5 first impressions/theory crafting videos to work on (These will be part of the "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly" Series). So I want to gauge which heroes you all are 1) most excited for and 2) which ones you'd like to see me talk about first! Anran will be the very first one since she is out now but the rest are up to you!
I have a couple solid ideas for fully edited, high effort main channel videos but I don't know which one to go full throttle on first! React to this poll with what you would want to see the most first. (They more than likely will all become videos but I want to see what we're thinking right now)
DO YOU WANT TO WIN A FREE STEAM GAME? DO YOU LIKE PREDICTING THE NOMINEES FOR GAME OF THE YEAR? WELL ITS THE LAST DAY TO ENTER MY CONTEST IN MY DISCORD, ACT NOW! (Check #announcements) discord.gg/ppGbUb2tSC
Guys! The year is halfway over! Its time to start thinking about the Game Of The Year! Please take a look at this unlisted video if you're interested and join my discord server (link in the description) for a competition/giveaway related to predictions later in the year! https://youtu.be/Z0EKkfTWj6c
Wanted to let you guys know that I am going to be attempting multistreaming here on YouTube and on Twitch for the launch of Season 15! I'll be live tomorrow Feb 18th at 5:00pm EST and will probably be playing for a good while so come stop by. I'll have a short test stream on here sometime tonight so see if you can catch me then as well!
What do you think is coming in the Overwatch Spotlight and what would you want to see? Ideally if you think something will be one of the big changes or maybe just an extra thing, let me know! (For example: I think hero bans are coming but I don't think they are THE groundbreaking PvP changes)

I am once again looking to hear from you guys!
What do you think is coming in the Overwatch Spotlight and what would you want to see? Ideally if you think something will be one of the big changes or maybe just an extra thing, let me know! (For example: I think hero bans are coming but I don't think they are THE groundbreaking PvP changes)
