As you may or may not know @Kabam Broccoli is designer working on Hercules. He said in a BG livestream that designers will usually design champs every other month. The last known creation by Broccoli was Stryfe so if we take this, backtrack through the months we can find out if this holds true.
Other things we know:
- Hercules is going to release in the summer
- champs take roughly 3 - 4 months to be finished
*Champs in brackets are my guesses as to which champs Kabam Brocolli made and those in bold are the ones we know for a fact he has made*

If we go back 2 years we find out that yes what Brocolli said was true. We can extrapolate this into the future and predict that Hercules is going release in May or July 2021. The first dev diary on Hercules was released in mid March. If we assume that work on Hercules started at some point in early March or maybe even late Febuary and champs take 3 - 4 months to complete a release date of July 2021 falls perfectly in line with everything we know. Thoughts?

Saw this on reddit seems like an early design but if you ask me that looks like Roman Reigns 😂😂
You also missed Guilly 2099 & Red Guardian!
It will be interesting to see if Kabam keeps up the weekly cadence for Hercules dev diaries. We had concept and modeling, next up will be animation. We could have entries for VFX, sound design, kit (abilities) design, playtesting, balancing, I'm curious how deep they intend to go.
