  "account": "Earlier this year, Overwatch's creative director accidentally disclosed the name of the upcoming season 6 hero during a Spotlight event. The hero, initially planned as a support, was revealed to be an omnic detective named Hudson. He was eventually shifted to the DPS role, as the team found that his core mechanic was most loved when played as a damage dealer. Hudson was shown at BlizzCon, and was confirmed to join the DPS class in season 6. The hero set record scores in internal and external testing, beating the second most popular hero, Juno.",
