Overwatch's latest season, the Reign of Talon, has brought an absolutely huge update with it. With a great UI overhaul, a competitive reset, and five new heroes for players to get to grips with. I've managed to try each one out, and while I love the wackiness of Jetpack Cat, Emre is currently in the lead for my favourite new hero.

Emre's definitely made an impact since being added to Overwatch in the latest update. For instance, he's the first male DPS to be added to the game since launch. I didn't believe it at the start, but other than Doomfist, who got added as DPS and then reclassed as a tank, he's the one dude out of the eight new additions. Huh, the more you know.

But that's not my favourite thing about him; it's actually just how simple his kit is. The semi-automatic Siphon Blaster is a really fun off-hand weapon, and the mobility that it gives Emre is almost as good as Soldier 76's ability: legs. Plus, his Cyber Frag is super helpful in team fights, and it becomes kinda busted if you get the level 2 perk: Cyber Adhesion, as it can then stick to enemies (which deals an extra 40 damage) and surroundings.
