Avid fans of "Overwatch" will be treated with information about the next hero in the game during the upcoming San Diego Comic Con 2016. There were rumors that the next "Overwatch" character may be a sniper hybrid called Sombra.

New information on the scheduled page for San Diego Comic Con 2016 revealed that Blizzard Entertainment will have a panel dedicated to the announcement of a new character, with the discussion titled "Behind the Scenes of Overwatch's Newest Hero," according to DualShockers. Previous reports had suggested that the new character will be connected to one of the game's other characters. Fans have less than two week to know the new hero during the upcoming event that is scheduled for July 21.

The panel will feature developers from Blizzard, including director or story and creative development James Waugh, senior designer Michael Chu, assistant art director Arnold Tsang, and senior manager of eSports Kim Phan, who will be the moderator. The discussion will focus on the creative process of developing a new character for the game, which will be related to the teases released by Blizzard Entertainment earlier this week.

On the other hand, an obvious thing about "Overwatch" is that every character is unique. However, Tracer is perceived the most iconic hero in the game - she was the star of the first big reveal movie and is currently the face of the game, according to Kotaku. What is good about Tracer is that she is swift and soft, created mainly to speed up the opposing team from behind as opposed to surviving a frontal attack.

When playing attack characters, most gamers go for approachable choices such as the mainstay Soldier 76. This character plays like a slower, more dangerous Tracer, or Reaper, who is also slower and lethal.

However, playing Tracer will require a relatively different technique from just about every other character in the game. It is easy to steer Tracer off a cliff or into the wall because she moves so fast. If a player plots his vectors well, it is easy to get in and out of almost all situations alive.
