I know this is a big change, but can we all try to be civil and not attack each other or the devs for this decision?

Meet Cole Cassidy. Rides into Overwatch October 26

Thoughts?

Now I have to ask if this was intentional.

Friendly reminder that abusing the report system is in and of itself an actionable offense.

It’s fair that people would assume this. It’s probably better to think of it as leaning into a trope of a “cowboy sounding name”, similarly to how other characters have done before us.
