There is a interaction between Moira and Genji about here experiments: Moira: I could have rebuilt you without all that metal. Genji: And left me a monster, like other creations? Moira: That is a matter of perspective.
I support that theory that the next tank hero is going to be a mutant. I read those translated letters and they mention trying to stabilize this Varadium and Moira did it by using humans which sounds like the Phreaks are former experiments from her and the next hero could be their leader who might be some kind of Turtle-Mutant judging from the placeholder picture. Moira also mentioned that through Varadium you can create crystals as ammo and it can increase physical stenghth which would explain the hero´s apperaence and what his way of fighting will be.
So we're going to be getting a cyborg bowser hopped up on Moira's anabolic piss steroids, with a Scottish accent? Maybe I treated the writers at Blizzard too harshly, that sounds like an utterly insane concept and I love it. His ult better be a kind of ranged Orisa ult, where you charge up his spikes and fire them out of his "shell"
Where does it say Moira used it on humans? I read them myself and I only saw that she asked for vanadium to be transported and that she managed to stabilize it and it is ready for clinical trials. She didn't stabilize it with people.
Didn't know there was so much lore on the orb, it's beautiful. I like the idea of a mutant(s) roaming around causing chaos. The new tank heroes ability intrigues me. I wonder if the purple spikes would be his primary fire and have some weird effects. Only time will tell
I´m excited to see him in action, too. I could imagine that he can fire them out like Lifeweaver does his thornvolley but at a rather slower rate but being strong (as they´re crystals). Maybe he can even create obstacles like walls with those crystals? For an ultimate maybe a shockwave which lets you crystalize enemies caught in it which slows them down and damages them. I really like the idea of a mutant-hero fighting with crystals as there are many possible ways for him to use them.
@@93Chowo You are cooking here. Maybe he has an ability that spawns a giant crystal to obstruct space. I feel like some reptile like abilities should also be added. A crystal motive would go so crazy
@@BlazeD_7 Reptile-like abilites for a tank ... maybe something similar to Bowser in Super Smash Bros, where he goes into his shell and spins around and in case of the hero deflects incoming attacks. So far only Genji has an ability to deflect attacks and before we saw Mauga´s official moveset he had a shield in the Baptiste-Short-Story which would deflect attacks. I would find it cool if a tank would have something similar but not just like Genji but more with a random deflect so the possibility of the enemy to hit themself or allies is there but you can´t aim it.
@@93Chowo I don't think he'll spin like bowser, that seems like it's limit movement as well as not being able to see. A Deflect would be cool so how about a tail that blocks incoming damage and or sweeps enemies backwards? Or that shield you mentioned. Alot of possibilities. Really depends on the personality of this tank and what reptile he's based off (if it's even that?)
Same I hope he's more humanoid that what they're theorizing here Edit: I don't mind if he's hybrid like, just as long as he doesn't look too much like that furry artstyle or too silly like. I want him to look more on the cool side
Hey just want to drop in and say I love your content! It's so nice and refreshing to watch someone who isn't constantly complaining about balance or pricing. Love this channel!
Yea it's right! He has had his criticisms which is totally right as they have been slowing hollowing out to game but this sexy man beast is always a pleasure to hear and watch 😅
As a Scottish person myself, I think his accent sounds like he's from Glasgow, which has multiple gangs or whatever especially in the past- maybye the Phreaks are one of those gangs? Edit: Wow I was not expecting to get this much attention thanks 🫡
Imagine a hero who could inject themselves with some liquid that transforms their body into animal parts (ofc Max 3 for a hero), like Wings of a bird or a turtle Shell for defense.
If it is a mutated animal, then I gotta say going three for three on animals being tanks is a little sad. I want an all animal team danggit! But yeah, neat idea!
The resemblance of this season’s Road-hog skin colors and the oasis tags got me wondering… if he could be a former Phreak. The whole animal motif would stand, and we’ve never actually seen his face, have we?
Reptiles makes me think there’s a chance for a TMNT collab only deepened with the mention of mutants. But it sounds more like Batamn Beyonds mutants who are people that have spliced their DNA with animals instead of X-men who gain unique abilities.
I wonder if the hero is a shapeshifter or a hero that can evolve. Phreaks was probably a human at first or a turtle that was experimented with 2 other animals combined, hence the name "phreaks", the name is plural with a "s". At 5:00, you pointed about a specific spray that shifted into 3 colors, it could hint each phreak primary color. Some of the sprays could also hint their abilities, that rose with the eyeball could indicate something poisonous, hallucinogenic, and thorny.
2:13 Yes you're right, Pharah (In Oasis): "City of unfettered scientists, yeah... until they call Helix in tears at two in the morning because the wolfbats escaped... again." Seems its not the first time oasis was mentioned to have mutant animals
I’m thinking he’s a human who can transform into an animal. Or at least he was originally human and became a hybrid through mutation. And his gang likely has the same situation.
hey check out the streamer mode names, there is a lot of them which are related to some character in the game, i'm pretty sure one of them could be a teaser for the new hero
@@Snuifduif123 I know the lore...I'm just bummed that we got another human character that was designed to sell skins. I'd like to see more unique characters like Hammond or Winston; and how that design plays into the kit.
Honestly when I first saw the “Phreaks” graffiti I thought it must’ve been connected to the meltdown in Australia (the incident that created the junkers) and figured that Roadhog was once a part of this gang. Who knows we might get a skin for Roadhog where we see him as a sort of Honorary member of the Phreaks.
4:50 just to point out that in the movie Logan (correct me if im mystaken) the mutants are being hunted by humanity and the few that are trying to survive flee to Canada
There are I think some subtle hints at some things that line up a little with your Mutants/Experiment theory. In the Battle Pass, there is a Roadhog skin at lvl 40, which is partially themed for the spooky vibe of the season. However it is also covered in Green and Pruple Neon paints, similar to those in the animated spray tags found on the walls for the Phreaks. In addition to this, at lvl 53 there is a Roadhog spray, in the style of this skin, again in some Neon color, almost as if done by Roadhog himself, like he is trying to work on his tagging skills. I'm wondering, if he, and possibly Junkrat will be moving to this faction/gang or "back to it" with their official introduction with the new hero. Further given credibility considering they are clearly not welcome among the Junkers now lorewise.
Imagine he's like a turtle and shoots purple spikes out of his turtle shell and he can go into tank form and maybe Shield himself and go inside of his turtle shell
I always thought that the Varadium was an alien species, very similar to Venom. And it was in a hibernation state in Oasis, until the Phreaks decided to ransack the place and awoken the creature. Then after the Phreaks got everyone hostage and spray painted the walls, the creature unleashed an explosion of the purple spikes and either killed everyone and consumed them or scared them off. As it was exiting the building it looked at one of the one spray tag that said Phreaks and decided to name itself that way.
It would've been really cool foreshadowing to have Venture react to seeing Varadium in the spawn room last season, just like some pre match voice interactions
I honestly think the phreaks is just an excuse for OverWatch to add more crazy heroes that aren't just humans like Winston and Hammond but they also want them to talk.
@@TheAlreadybeentaken eh we already have full animals with Winston and Hammond so hybrids wouldn’t be too crazy to be fair It may just be this tank and it seems he may just have some reptile traits like scales and spikes. So maybe nothing too degenerate 🤣
I am also thinking we might be getting moving "legendary" sprays similar to the phreak tags! Imagine next season is holiday themed and we get sprays of the heroes with falling snow around them? Seems possible to me!
I don’t think that what was in the black goo spikey ball, was stolen, I think the new character was IN the black goo. The crystals around the room seem to emanate from that point, which says to me it exploded out from that point, possibly fired out from the new character, possibly his ult shooting crystals in all directions
This reminds me more of “The Creeps” from Goosebumps “Calling All Creeps” It’s kinda a coincidence how they both call themselves “the future”, have reptile aspects, they’re a group, and that they call them selves by ugly terms
My theory. Phreaks might be a hero that is really They or Them concept since its a gang. Maybe the black ball in Oasis might've mutated them together. Meaning this hero has multiple personas/forms.
I might be glazing myself here, but this idea is something I proposed in an earlier video. I think it's a cool idea! I'm glad that he ^ (sorry I do not know your name) also thought of it! Love the vids mate! edit: the person in that picture with the shell and seemingly neon green spikes, he/she/they look like a glyptodont. It's a prehistoric mammal that somewhat resembles an armadillo. Thoughts?
I saw a leak/speculation somewhere that the new hero is called Hazmat/Haz and they're a half frog half human. While that definitely supports this theory it would be very hard to take that seriously
In junker queens origin story one of the lines is literally mutant omnics Raiders I’ve slain hinting that there might be some human bias against mutants, same as the bots
Lets not forget that there was a Scottish Moira in marvel comics that was closely associated with mutants. So there you go, Scottish AND Moira connections right there. Very interesting, no?
Honestly, this new hero needs to bring a LOT to the table. December is getting closer, with it the release of Marvel Rivals which many people from the Overwatch community (like Samito) have praised for feeling like a breath of fresh air and actually being fun. With it launching for free on ALL platforms and with significantly better and cooler character design, this one new character has to compete with an ENTIRE roster from a newer and better game.
I didn’t think he stole it cause you can see a path of the black goo leaving the pedestal I think he has been inside it atleast that’s what I think and that’s what it looks like but I could be wrong
I haven't seen ANYONE point this out yet, but there might be Phreak foreshadowing on the actual maps themselves! I was playing Rio de Janeiro before, and I saw on one of the walls on the first point was more graffiti in the same style that just said REVOLUTION! How has no-one mentioned this yet?
I still find it VERY interesting that Mercy got Moira fired, yet she doesn’t hold it over her. We already know mercy is a genius when it comes to the nano tech, and obviously Moira would want that. But there’s never any lines between them about revenge. Moira is only sassy toward her, but she keeps offering Mercy a spot in her crew?? They even have sprays that mirror one another. Is like…Mercy canonically op or something? Has Moira ever tried to kill her??
What about body augmentation? Maybe they used it to give themselves more animalistic features (Sorry if it was brought up by someone wlse and I didn't see it)
I strongly believe that, just look at the sprays on the wall, all of them represents different animals that might of been experimented on since they're kinda different from regular animals...I think Phreak is a mutant
i thought they called them self phreaks cause theyre mutants (part animal) i call hes gonna be part turtle (it all might just have robot augments that are anime like)
I think Fhreak it's more simple than a mutant hes just a man like Junkrat but definitely Mutants exist on Overwatch In Junker Queen trailer.. cinematic.. i don't remember there's written that he hates Omnics and mutants
Hope the new hero would fit Overwatch universe. I would get if the hero is a high intelligent animal or a human mutated with some animal aspects. But a snake with a human face or something as gross like that would be a disaster to the identity of this game
I think if they end up being animal mutant hybrids it’ll be more so like 80-90% human just with animal features like fur, scales, horns, fangs, etc… but on a mostly human model. I think it’s a lore way to add in furry style heroes that aren’t just straight up animals like Winston and Hammond. So expect this tank to be reptile features, maybe a girl dps that has furry ears or some rabbit or cat features 🤣
I was really disappointed at first because I thought Phreak was just gonna be a male version of Junker Queen. But if he's a half-human half REPTILE version of Junker Queen, that's hard as fuck
With roadhog and junkrat already being mutants that took on animal names Id think they are in the same boat as them, probably former activists that got mutated by some corrupt means and went the whole embrace your flaws route instead of the self pitty one and became criminals, especially when everyone treats you like crap for being a "freak" wouldn't be surprised if roadhog and junkrate ran with them for a bit or something. Gotta wait for our voiceline lore lol

Mutants? Very funny because the upgrades in the new junkensteins lab pvp mode are also called mutants.
i thought they called them self phreaks cause theyre mutants (part animal) i call hes gonna be part turtle (it all might just have robot augments that are anime like)
I think Fhreak it's more simple than a mutant
hes just a man like Junkrat
but definitely Mutants exist on Overwatch
In Junker Queen trailer.. cinematic.. i don't remember
there's written that he hates Omnics and mutants
Hope the new hero would fit Overwatch universe. I would get if the hero is a high intelligent animal or a human mutated with some animal aspects. But a snake with a human face or something as gross like that would be a disaster to the identity of this game
I think if they end up being animal mutant hybrids it’ll be more so like 80-90% human just with animal features like fur, scales, horns, fangs, etc… but on a mostly human model.
I think it’s a lore way to add in furry style heroes that aren’t just straight up animals like Winston and Hammond.
So expect this tank to be reptile features, maybe a girl dps that has furry ears or some rabbit or cat features 🤣
Have you seen the Phreak character concept?
Honestly hope we finally get a beast master type character with different “pets”.
I'm pretty sure the orb in oasis exploded into purple shards
I have a theory, what if the Junkenstein's Lab mode is also a tease for this hero? Maybe we'll get some of the MUTATED abilities on this hero!
I found is emblem on the second spawn in new queens streets
Overwatch creating new factions and not giving us lore on the ones we already have is just wild
Jetpack Cat is a must.
I think the “shield” on his back kinda looks like the coils of a snake Idk thoughts ?
I have a feeling when he ULTs he’s gonna hide in his shell and all those purple shards are going to shoot out of his shell.
i wouldn't worry about it since we're getting a collab with a rapper who apparently calls himself phreak instead of a new hero
the ball wasnt stolen, it was broken out of, you can see the goo on the ground around it
I was really disappointed at first because I thought Phreak was just gonna be a male version of Junker Queen. But if he's a half-human half REPTILE version of Junker Queen, that's hard as fuck
If diddy ain't the new tank with his baby oil primary fire, I'm gonna make blizzard give kiri a new skin
With roadhog and junkrat already being mutants that took on animal names Id think they are in the same boat as them, probably former activists that got mutated by some corrupt means and went the whole embrace your flaws route instead of the self pitty one and became criminals, especially when everyone treats you like crap for being a "freak" wouldn't be surprised if roadhog and junkrate ran with them for a bit or something. Gotta wait for our voiceline lore lol
If he's a Ninja Turtle like Slash I will shit everyone else's pants.
I mean the current game mode involves mutation abilities
They still might just be a normal human, per the concept art for a hero named “phreak” that’s a normal human.
But its "phreaks" with a "s", it might just be more than 1.

We got Fallout super mutants in Ow2 before GTA 6🔥🔥🔥
