2 Hero Concepts

I feel like Billy and Abrams are somewhat lacking in terms of the New York Steampunk vibe I personally get from Deadlock. That being said, I think a boxer-type hero would be really cool!

I don't really have a name or abilities ideas so feel free to reply with suggestions, but I think a boxer character should be easy and straightforward to play (like most melee based heroes). The hero could be related to Lash and Bebop lore wise, or their own separate thing. Finally, I feel like a cool potential mechanic could be unparryable melees maybe as an ability/ult.

My second idea is an outlaw type character with a custom gun for the steampunk vibe, maybe Holliday adjacent? Every great hero shooter and MOBA has a "bullet count" gimmick. Think Cassidy/McCree from Overwatch, Jhin from League of Legends or Chamber from VALORANT to name a few. Deadlock doesn't really have anything like this and I personally love this hero trope. For example, It could be that one ability knocks up (set-up), and the last shot of their magazine is powerful.

This is different than Holliday because a. The knock up could synergize with other heroes like Lash or Vindicta and b) Holliday's 3 feels more like a poking ability. In my mind, this would be an execute character. i.e something you dont get as often until T3 or late game.

Anyways @Yoshi, I dont really care about credit or anything, just hope you'll think about it.

Thanks!
