A Gamer Beekeeper

It's easy to create a hero for Overwatch, right? How many people have suggested a new hero kit or a way for the developers to fix an unbalanced hero? Plenty. And even though some of the suggestions are indeed great and well thought, most of them fail to certain points. I will try to walk us through a hero design. I won't suggest that my design will be the best but bear with me.

Could that mean that a person can transfer his memories and consciousness to a clone? Probably. That would explain that scene where No 1 stabs himself while he's pulled to the sky. We know that he's not already dead as he levitates and Reedus' character (named Sam) doesn't know his final fate. It seem...
