Torb and Rein combined with Support in both Armor and Healing? I think a lot of people will like her. This is sadly what I thought The Queen from Junkertown would be like character wise since she also has a flail, I guess we'll see if she ever gets announced. I'll say it's more likely she'll be in the mech that's in Junkertown which would be a cool seperate option from D'Va.

Blizzcon seems likely since Blizzard has never really had an E3 presence.

Really like the sound and look of Brigitte. I play Support the most, but Reinhardt is also one of my main tanks alongside Zarya.
Feels like Brigitte will be a fun to partner up with him.

So Brigitte's basically Overwatch's take on Holy spec paladin?

So, went back to it after months in absentia. 5 games, 3 wins, 1 POTG. I think that's pretty good. Glad to see I don't have too much ring rust (game rust?). Finally got to play Moira who I really like. Her mechanics are exactly what fits my gameplay style, I feel very comfortable playing her.
I was a bit disappointed not to find Brigitte, though, even outside of ranked matches. Is she not available in all parts of the world at the moment or something?

Brigitte hasn't been offically released yet. If you play the game on the PC, you can try her out by logging into the PTR server. Overwatch always has its new characters available on the PTR for a few weeks of playtesting before making them available in the actual game.

You guys, I am loving playing as Moira, you don't even know. She is one of those characters who is just perfect for my playstyle. Lil' bit of healing, lil' bit of offence, very versatile. Also, watching her energy balls bounce around never ceases to amuse me, especially the damage one when it's thrown perfectly in the middle of the enemy group.

Moira is a fun characters to play and if you pull off a kill with a death ball, it’s the coolest thing ever.
Speaking of new characters, there’s speculation that Brigitte’s coming out next week which would make sense with the time in the PTR, but it’s not like Blizzard have been mega consistent. Along with the fact that they have to properly space out her release for the next event (which seems to be Uprising with a Overwatch vs. Talon based mode).

For console EU people, the game is half price on PSN and added to the packed Easter sale.
For PC people, it’s much less at £16.99 (not sure of Euro price but still good either way).
With all the rumours of what the next event is going to be (Overwatch Archives seems to be the name) and the potential scope of it, it seems like they’re attracting new users before it all kicks off.

Finally got around to trying out Brigitte. She's a lot of fun to play as.

The lack of love for Zarya is depressing

There’s a quick developer video, the shortest so far, which only addressed a couple of points for Overwatch Archives
- Uprising is coming back (duh) with both Story mode and All Heroes mode - Archives lootbox content will contain old Uprising content and new stuff - Kaplin teased a new skin for “your favourite Shimada brother” - New stuff’ll be announced throughout the week including the Overwatch League broadcast on Wednesday which’ll most likely explain what they hinted at with being ready for “the Retribution”.

Both Moira and Brigitte have been a lot of fun to play as. I never got on with Doomfist despite repeated attempts...I'm not really an Offense guy anyway, but I can still do good stuff with Solider 76 and Pharah. Doomfist just isn't in my wheelhouse, and Sombra still feels too reliant on team comp (though she's great in Total Mayhem).
But both of those two, lots of fun in terms of both character and gameplay.
And yeah...as people were thinking, sounds like they'll be opening this event up to let you play other historically important missions, too. Looking forward to finding out more.
