He's so bland I couldn't even think of him for the poll. That's my bad and I am sorry.

I completely forgot his existence.

So I guess he gets my vote.

where the fucking pics?

Pics don't entirely capture how the characters look running around and doing stuff.

But you can check out the characters at:

Edit: when you click on the hero you'll see their full body and they move around a little.

Looks-wise. Gameplay is constantly changing as the devs fuck with shit that's not broken.

Baptiste, i legit thought he was a Fortnite character. I like his gameplay and story and all, but man. He looks generic in his base skin. The Talon/Combat Medic skin should have been his default

Tbf, even if this is entirely true, most of the characters are still fairly unique relative to other FPSes, not counting Soldier 76 (who's like that by design) or the ones that are just straight-up ripped from TF2 (Mercy/Medic, Hanzo/Huntsman Sniper, Torb/Engie, Junkrat/Demo, etc.).

Baptiste probably loses on both overall, but Sigma and Moira aren't winning any awards in the design department either. Not really sure why Orisa/Wrecking Ball are on your poll. Or Hanzo. Those are characters people tend to hate for their gameplay more than their design.

One mistake the Overwatch dev team constantly makes is when they nerf a character they do the nerf on abilities that create the character's identity and gameplay. When Sigma first came out he was one of the best designed and fluid characters I have ever played. However, his kit basically had everything in it so they had to nerf the shit out of his constantly over time. The biggest nerfs coming to how long he has to wait to deploy his shield. At first it was instant and the character felt great, after nerfs it is like 3 seconds or something and the character feels clunky as hell now.

They could have just nerfed the amount of damage it can block or further decreased sigma's damage output as a way to compensate from shielding flexibility.

RIP Torb 1.0.
RIP Symmetra 1.0.
RIP Scattershot.

Lol, Tracer.
Lol, Genji.

And lest we forget, lol Ironclad Bastion and Moth Mercy.

idk where Echo's at these days but she's still probably better off than most support/tanks were in their entire life.

Most of them are a visual eyesore. Blizzard's design philosophy is "cram as much shit into each frame as possible."

cosmetic

I dont really dislike anyone cosmetically. They are all very unique. Baptiste looks ordinary and sounds pretty ordinary but with a roster full of unique characters, he ends up being unique himself because if that. He is probably the most relatable person on the roster. He is funny too.

I guess if I had to pick the hero I dislike the most by design, is probably Torb, Sym or Bastion. I dont hate those characters at all. I just like them the least. Especially Sym. She has so much potential in the OW universe with the ability to create anything but it is used in such a boring way outside of Teleporter.
