The Overwatch 2 community debated what things they would like to see most from the expected Season 10 DPS Hero, Venture.
Mauga released with the launch of Overwatch 2 Season 8, bringing fearsome firepower to the battlefield. The Tank has continued to make waves after his release, with many calling for Blizzard to nerf the character and his ultimate Cage Fight.
Many players were fed up with Mauga’s dominance in the current Overwatch meta, and with Lead Hero Designer Alec Dawson revealing more details about Venture, they decided to look ahead to the new Season 10 Hero.
Here is what the Overwatch community expects most from the upcoming DPS Hero Venture.
Overwatch 2 fans want these things for Venture
One Overwatch 2 player had clearly had enough of Mauga, and decided to look ahead to the future of Blizzard’s competitive shooter:
“Do you have any expectations about Venture?” They asked the rest of the community.
The original poster wanted the character to be similar to the Rocket Hammer-toting Tank Reinhardt, expecting the DPS Hero to have “a cheerful personality and funny voice lines.”

For others, humor and wordplay were key to the character, and there was overwhelming support for Venture to have a specific respawn quip.
“If Venture doesn’t have “Nothing Ventured, nothing gained” as a respawn voice-line or something the devs are just inept.” One person said.
Despite the gameplay aspect of Mauga drawing many complaints from Overwatch 2 players, there were surprisingly few expectations surrounding Venture’s kit. People were more concerned about whether Venture would have a furry friend joining them on the battlefield or not.
“Kiriko has a fox, Brig a cat, Sojourn a dog, and Bastion a bird, I want a mole for Venture,” someone commented.
However, there were some legitimate concerns players had about Venture’s kit, like how much gameplay would revolve around their drill: “Gameplay-wise I am worried about the dig, not for being OP but for making way too many out-of-bounds bugs happen.”
