Summary
Fan art can come in many forms, shapes, and sizes, and oneOverwatch 2fan has shown off a knitted Brigitte doll they created.Overwatch 2is currently winding down Season 13 with its 14th season on the horizon, due out on December 10. Aside from the new tank Hazard, who was playable for a weekend last month, little else is known about Season 14 ofOverwatch 2at this point.
As the only melee-based support hero in the game, Brigitte made herOverwatch 1debut in early 2018. The Swedish engineer’s kit is an interesting one, as her main source of healing comes from dealing damage to opponents with her flail, making her ability to close the distance with her shield bash a necessity. As the daughter oforiginalOverwatchDPS hero Torbjorn, Brigitte is arguably one of the most beloved support heroes in the game, and even went through a rework that gave her a large shield comparable to her godfather Reinhardt’s.
One Brigitte fan used their knitting skills to show their appreciation for the hero online. On Reddit, nmcdonald55 showed off a crocheted Brigitte doll made with yarn, flail and shield included. The doll seems to be donningBrigitte’s originalOverwatch 1skin, and nmcdonald55 added that the doll has wires in its arms, making it possible to reposition them in different poses.
