It's understandable that the game is going to have problems at launch, just as most games do, especially with a cast of playable characters as big as Overwatch's

Longtime and new fans don’t always pick their main for being the most powerful, though. Many players are drawn to play as the heroes whose personality they relate to most. Through assigning fan-favorite characters to the signs of the zodiac, players may just find their newest (or next) main.

Taurus – Kiriko

Gemini - Moira

Geminis are highly versatile people who can adapt to almost any situation, just like Moira in battles. When the enemy team is focusing on taking out healers, the mad scientist is often too slippery for them to catch her, since she can disappear and escape danger with fade.

Even Moira’s powers align with the air sign, able to deal damage by sucking the life from her foes and spray heals at her teammates, similar to Gemini’s double-sided personality. Her charisma is unquestionable, but she also has a substantial dark side to her, since she puts scientific research over morality.

Virgo - Ana

With a unique quirkiness that draws others to her, Ana presents Virgo characteristics in her attention-grabbing nature and charming wit. As one of the best snipers before the loss of her eye, Ana hones in on the enemy team with hyper-awareness largely comparable to the earth sign.

On the other hand, Captain Amari can be equally as caring in her own special yet indirect way.

Libra – Zenyatta

Scorpio – Pharah

Wishing for no one else under her care to befall the same “fate” as she thought her mother had, the hero uses her missile launcher against the most dangerous enemies and makes herself extremely vulnerable when using her barrage ultimate to end a team fight. The domineering stubbornness of Scorpios is highlighted greatly in Pharah’s strive to be as brave as possible.

Capricorn - Hanzo

Capricorns are known for submerging themselves in their ambitions to a questionably unhealthy degree, which can certainty be said about Hanzo, Genji’s brother. The incredibly serious and disciplined archer is strikingly independent, all being common within Capricorns.

Though he is quiet most of the time, Hanzo is prone to outbursts of anger, characteristic of a Capricorn who feels stressed or disrespected. His unyielding ambition is as determined as he is self-critical, doing his absolute best to never miss a mark.

Aquarius - Junker Queen

The newest added tank of the game with an unapologetically outlandish personality that’s similar to an Aquarius is none other than Junker Queen. The super strong dive tank is talented at making space for her team and clearing a path to victory,
