We already have a Persian hero (sort of); Afeera. Her fighting stance is based off of razmafzar, a sword fighting style created during the Persian empire. So having another Persian type hero in the game would make no sense and would be too greedy. My money is on the Mongolian hero.

I predicted a Mongolian at the beginning of the year. More specifically A female Mongolian Shaman, also known as "Idugan" since it will be gender-locked to female. I'm not too sure what exact weapons they will use but quite possibly a lance. I know they could be a very good support hero utilizing the drum they used for ritualistic healing, fortune telling, etc.
@@suji4540 I get it makes sense since Mongolians are invaders, but at the same time that’s taking away from wu Lin who are already litmitted and there’s a ton of options for the Outlander faction
@@suji4540 another thing to point out is that in the Lore the Wu Lin is in a Civil war IRL this would be Mongolia vs China As for Pirate IRL Pirates are a separate faction
I PRAY that it's not a genderlocked female Mongolian (before i get flamed, let me say that I'm not saying I have anything against women heroes, i just want the Mongolian character to be a comically large man)
Or even just an Ancient Greek in general with a unique Greek weapon and then having different Greek armor’s including Spartan armor but also Minoan stuff would be cool too.
I mean yea totally cool if it did happen but most of the armor the Spartan’s frequent has been given to centurion and gryphon, but an Mycenaean like hero is a different topic in a sense, a little farther back butt, maybe?
@@gorgosaurus4548 I think there’s still quite a few armors they haven’t covered for Spartans but I would definitely love an Ancient Greek hero that encompasses all of the unique armors and clothings of Ancient Greek cultures including the Minoans and others but obviously we need a unique Ancient Greek weapon to mix things up.
I think the Wu Lin could use a little bit more armor on their roster, therefore: Iron Pagoda warrior! I have always loved the variety of weapons their heavy cavalry wielded. The warriors hailed from the Jin Dynasty and were both heavy shock cavalry as well as dragoons capable of dismounting and acting as a vanguard with incredible efficiency. They were armored almost completely with exception of their eyes and hands, even their horses were covered from head to hoof in armor. Depending on their role in battle they would usually ride out with a lance, bow, and 2 handed weapon (sword, mace, etc.); otherwise they would ride out with without their lances and instead trade some of their larger weapons out for tools to help hasten the rest of the armies advance like picks, ropes, ladders and shovels (effectively pathfinders). Ultimately they would be destroyed by the Song dynasty which had their own version of the armor, but as the wars continued they gradually switched to anti-calvary units to counteract the strategy of the Jin warriors.

If the hero skin ends up Mulan and the hero is Khutulun that would be pretty funny cause it's the mythological woman empowerment story vs the very real very strong warrior woman.
A Rapier fencing Knight noble would be cool and he fights with one hand behind his back like Count Dooku does in Star Wars who also is based off European fencing because the actor Sir Christopher Lee also was a fencer. Also that same hand behind the back should have armor on the arm for when he parries and he could have some light armor cosmetics with fancy European clothing.
@@maxgm1424 counter cape? I’ve never heard that. Do you mean he catches attacks with his cape or something? If so I don’t know if that would be practical or possible in For Honor but I do know the armored wrist can because Shaolin does the same thing.
@@dutchalwayshasaplan4956 yeah, a cape soule ne difficult i Thank but a piece of cloth that looks like a cape for exemple as it was used (like the net of a gladiator)
I’m predicting a character that dual wields axes, they’d be a mix of quick lights and high damage heavies. In order to get into and stay in their chain I think they’ll give them hyper armor on all chain attacks, feinting from neutral or in chain will also allow the character to keep hyper armor if they feint and then attack. Let me know I what y’all think! /s
That’s funny. Before the vid I was thinking mongol. However (Ik these will not be the new character) I think a musketeer (parry specialist) or spartan with a xiphos and full block shield. Or a Turkish warrior with a vlad skin.
So you and I are pretty much on the same track here, although I really hope the hero skin isn't using a Jian because that's my favorite sword pretty much ever from Asian cultures. I would much prefer a new wu lin to use it but hey, I'll take what I can get.
@@colttitus6374 I have heard this Theory but I'm not really I'm bored with it I've seen some evidence is pretty but it's not enough for me to really warrant the idea of it being the next Hero
@@GeneralFujikiyo okay okay fair. Buuut, we saw in the Sohei Hero’s Den that Varangian Guard is getting a Hero Skin and she is known to speak Greek. And that purple outline isn’t the Wu Lin. It’s based on Greek/Amazonian designs despite sharing the color to the Wu Lin
@@GeneralFujikiyo And I could see this grand daughter of Genghis being the hero skin and she like the Varangian Guard was trained by the Amazons. I’ll one up that theory. Based on the whole year having this “back to original story” vibe they got with bringing back old season passes. I believe Apollyon was from this tribe of Amazons bringing the whole story full circle. I think that’s why they were playing up how she is going to “shake things up”
I’ve seen a few videos now on the topic now and it seems to me it’s a toss up between 3 possible options for the new hero. Mongolian, Amazonian or Korean. Thoughts?
when will we get a mercenary with a zweihander, i swear a german mercenary trailer would be so damn cool "Everyone is a hero nowadays... for a price *bites gold coin*"
Think you nailed it. New hero always follows the same pattern / Male/Female/Male/Female. So yes new hero is female. If she is Mongolian she will be an archer. The Mongolian female archers are pretty legendary.
Still just want a Rajput, Mughal, or Martha warrior. Really just something from the Indian subcontinent. A sub Saharan African warrior such as a Mali Knight would also be cool
Hopefully we get a new Knight and Wu Lin hero next year since the Vikings got Varangian Guard, the Samurai got Sohei, and soon the Outlanders might have a Mongol or some other hero so they’ve got to be fair to the Knights and Wu Lin and give them a new hero due to how long it has been.
@@dutchalwayshasaplan4956 Yeah, Knights I could see not one getting one for a bit as they do have the most (tied with samurais now) but Wu Lin haven't gotten any in like, what? 5 years?
if they do a chinese hero, than its gonna be a Genghis khan style hero. the only other outlander people want, however, is a spartan. so if therr smart it will be one of those 2
Ghenghis Khan is a Mongol. Not Chinese whatsoever. Now there’s many Wu Lin heroes they can still do with cool Chinese armors and clothings and maybe a martial arts character or he could have weapons like Meteor Hammers, a Qiang, a Jiang, Dual Wield Butterfly Swords, and so on. There’s many Outlanders people want and that they can do like an Ancient Greeks, Mesopotamians, Polynesians, Indonesians, Tlingit Native Americans from Alaska, Inca Empire, Zulu, Mali Empire, Ottomans, Indians, and so on.
@dutchalwayshasaplan4956 eh, Chinese, Japanese, dirty knees, look at these! no one one cares. if it comes from giant continent across sea, its either russian or chinese.
hmp somehow in the weekly mission event some vikings mentioned sawing the knight dressing like warden in the woods sir *maybe mentioned the Warmonger that the root of the Maddox*
Okay so I’m making this comment before I watch the video just to put in my speculation based on what we got. The new outlander is a she and it’s a villain/evil as revealed in the year 8 trailer, seeing as it’s a Wu Lin season and it has a hero skin for them we can safely assume the skin will be the hero opposing the new outlander villain. The most obvious choice would be a Mongolian hero given the fact that they are the most well known enemies of Ancient China and they were not good people. As for the skin I’m very confident it’s going to be a Guan Yu skin for JJ and here’s why, Guan Yu lived about 1000 years before the Mongolian era but after his death he lived on in legend and was eventually recognized fully as a GOD going by the title “Saint of War” and it is said that his spirit would come back to the land of the living to help protect his country and people if they would be in need. That could 100% be a perfect explanation for the skin and it would work out because I’m sure JJ is the most player wu lin hero besides shaolin so all around it could work out.
@@ImCallMeLeo I do really like your theory I'm going to be honest I was going with the idea that the hero skin could possibly work work with the villain and I did have a suggestion on someone who would be against the villain
@@GeneralFujikiyo it just immediately clicked in my head when I saw the roadmap lol, Guan Yu is probably one of the most well known Chinese legends besides Wukong and JJ is already a very highly played hero so that covers that ground. But I just thought who else could it be other than him? Who other than Guan Yu would stand against what I only can assume will be the current leader of the Mongolians? The image just fits too well in my head it seems so perfect. (I really hope ubi goes this path now I have fully convinced myself this will be it 😂)
At this point i dont want new heroes anymore just balancing only 2 of like 7 of my heroes i play have effective kits against reworked and new heroes its ridiculous how well you do is based on the character you pick i regularly see when i win or another team wins someone who has a character who has been getting attention has like 13-5 and older characters are 7-5
Don’t get me wrong having these new hero’s is nice like it really is, but wouldn’t it be nice if we had another operation health type of season so the devs can put more time into the game’s system. Feel free to disagree if so
@@gorgosaurus4548 I would prefer for Year 9 if they don't add any Heroes just focus on fixing stuff like the faction war adding new game modes making new armour preferably new maps and so much more
Why is there no character from Turkish culture? Turks have a big place in history. For example, the janissary soldiers. There were people among them nicknamed slappers. They fought by slapping enemies besides their weapons.
On a bit of a side note, they also gave Gryphon some Mongolian-style armor. So it might have been their attempt to see the reaction of the community. But it does mean that they had their eyes on making a mongolian Hero or skin for some time now
Meh, I think its possible its a Mongolian but I think a few other cultures are probably for likely with it being a female. I was thinking and central african. Like the Dahomey Amazons. Or a female mugal warrior (though they might not because Afeera is ottaman and they might be too similar in esthetic) I would love to see a mongol but im just not sure if your reasoning is strong enough.
I’d prefer a Greek hero to be male if it has to be gender locked and it could have a unique Greek weapon or combo with different kinds of Greek armors besides Spartan armor.
@@RadxPLord No. He’s Holden Cross from Story Mode who was a Lawbringer and second in command of the Blackstone Legion under Apollyon and later defected to the Iron Legion with The Warden, Mercy, and Stone but then The Warden later called Lord Warden of the Iron Legion went missing and everyone accused him so he fled and became a wandering mercenary who travelled to places including Greece and Korea for example which is why he has those armors. So he’s a mercenary of Knight origin and the only other Knightly things about him are his old Lawbringer helmet and his French Bardiche he wields but all of his other armors aren’t Knight and he should’ve became and Outlander but he was added before Outlanders so he was added to Knights for being Holden Cross and becoming the leader of the Chimera Alliance even though the Chimera VS Horkos lore is boring and dumb lol.

I reckon it will be a Spartan or a hoplite or smth. Community been wanting one since the game released
Am I the only one desperate for a musketeer fencer knight style ? :')
A Rapier fencing Knight noble would be cool and he fights with one hand behind his back like Count Dooku does in Star Wars who also is based off European fencing because the actor Sir Christopher Lee also was a fencer. Also that same hand behind the back should have armor on the arm for when he parries and he could have some light armor cosmetics with fancy European clothing.
@@dutchalwayshasaplan4956 Yes, with a counter gauntlet or a cape
it could be like a Cuirassier type hero (30 years war mounted class)
@@maxgm1424 counter cape? I’ve never heard that. Do you mean he catches attacks with his cape or something? If so I don’t know if that would be practical or possible in For Honor but I do know the armored wrist can because Shaolin does the same thing.
@@dutchalwayshasaplan4956 yeah, a cape soule ne difficult i Thank but a piece of cloth that looks like a cape for exemple as it was used (like the net of a gladiator)
I’m predicting a character that dual wields axes, they’d be a mix of quick lights and high damage heavies. In order to get into and stay in their chain I think they’ll give them hyper armor on all chain attacks, feinting from neutral or in chain will also allow the character to keep hyper armor if they feint and then attack. Let me know I what y’all think! /s
A heavy armored Mongolian hero would be awesome
That’s funny. Before the vid I was thinking mongol. However (Ik these will not be the new character) I think a musketeer (parry specialist) or spartan with a xiphos and full block shield. Or a Turkish warrior with a vlad skin.
Some sort or Zulu warrior. A Māori warrior could be dope. Heavy Short range with a bleed ability.
Also an old Native American warrior (Apache, Comanche etc). A conquistador general is a cool option
Give us Bornean Dayak Tribe Warrior
Still waiting for a spartan hero 🙄
fist fighting character when????????
Does anyone remember watching deadliest warrior on spike with the Indian warrior with the whip sword?
Ngl, I hope they do an Irish based hero, maybe a finna
Where’s our spartan hero
So you and I are pretty much on the same track here, although I really hope the hero skin isn't using a Jian because that's my favorite sword pretty much ever from Asian cultures. I would much prefer a new wu lin to use it but hey, I'll take what I can get.
It’s an Amazonian Warrior. Based on the Princess Penthesalia. They showed her weapon in the ‘Visions’ trailer
@@colttitus6374 I have heard this Theory but I'm not really I'm bored with it I've seen some evidence is pretty but it's not enough for me to really warrant the idea of it being the next Hero
@@colttitus6374 keep in mind there is a second Viking hero skin to come out in update 2
@@GeneralFujikiyo okay okay fair. Buuut, we saw in the Sohei Hero’s Den that Varangian Guard is getting a Hero Skin and she is known to speak Greek.
And that purple outline isn’t the Wu Lin. It’s based on Greek/Amazonian designs despite sharing the color to the Wu Lin
@@GeneralFujikiyo And I could see this grand daughter of Genghis being the hero skin and she like the Varangian Guard was trained by the Amazons.
I’ll one up that theory. Based on the whole year having this “back to original story” vibe they got with bringing back old season passes. I believe Apollyon was from this tribe of Amazons bringing the whole story full circle. I think that’s why they were playing up how she is going to “shake things up”
@@colttitus6374 that just means more likely the Varangian guard just going to be the Amazonian
I’ve seen a few videos now on the topic now and it seems to me it’s a toss up between 3 possible options for the new hero.
Mongolian, Amazonian or Korean.
Thoughts?
Bro where the hell is the Spartan hero? Spartan wins by popular demand alone
if we get Mongolian he's definitely getting a horse
Man, i'm absolutelly sure that the new outlander will be a hero that could fit the Wu Lin perfectly but it's outlander
Because they’re both Asian? Yikes racism. Jokes aside if they do a Wu Lin they should do it right with a Chinese character.
when will we get a mercenary with a zweihander, i swear a german mercenary trailer would be so damn cool "Everyone is a hero nowadays... for a price *bites gold coin*"
Think you nailed it. New hero always follows the same pattern / Male/Female/Male/Female. So yes new hero is female.
If she is Mongolian she will be an archer. The Mongolian female archers are pretty legendary.
Nice video 👍
Text and script: "Yi Sun-sin"
Guy reading the script: "Yu Song-shin"
Cool
@@GeneralFujikiyo lukewarm
what
@@GeneralFujikiyo what
What
Pls add him to the wu lin faction i dont want outlanders to be in the game
Still just want a Rajput, Mughal, or Martha warrior. Really just something from the Indian subcontinent. A sub Saharan African warrior such as a Mali Knight would also be cool
Why not add a wu lin? man they don't like that faction much.
Hopefully we get a new Knight and Wu Lin hero next year since the Vikings got Varangian Guard, the Samurai got Sohei, and soon the Outlanders might have a Mongol or some other hero so they’ve got to be fair to the Knights and Wu Lin and give them a new hero due to how long it has been.
@@dutchalwayshasaplan4956 Yeah, Knights I could see not one getting one for a bit as they do have the most (tied with samurais now) but Wu Lin haven't gotten any in like, what? 5 years?
if they do a chinese hero, than its gonna be a Genghis khan style hero. the only other outlander people want, however, is a spartan. so if therr smart it will be one of those 2
Ghenghis Khan is a Mongol. Not Chinese whatsoever. Now there’s many Wu Lin heroes they can still do with cool Chinese armors and clothings and maybe a martial arts character or he could have weapons like Meteor Hammers, a Qiang, a Jiang, Dual Wield Butterfly Swords, and so on. There’s many Outlanders people want and that they can do like an Ancient Greeks, Mesopotamians, Polynesians, Indonesians, Tlingit Native Americans from Alaska, Inca Empire, Zulu, Mali Empire, Ottomans, Indians, and so on.
@dutchalwayshasaplan4956 eh, Chinese, Japanese, dirty knees, look at these! no one one cares. if it comes from giant continent across sea, its either russian or chinese.
I don’t want more gender locked hero’s ubi please 😭😭😭
Ngl i want a fighter who fights with his fists ( not like cent)

I made a bit of a funny reference to you and my Viking video multiple times
hmp somehow in the weekly mission event some vikings mentioned sawing the knight dressing like warden in the woods sir *maybe mentioned the Warmonger that the root of the Maddox*
@@henmask6640 I've seen the weekly law bits and their deathly going to be the hero skin reveal Vikings in the second update
I'm done with gender locked heros
When you think we get a Greco hero ? hoplite , or hypaspist or i dont know. a myrmidon .
I expected a Mongolian Warrior
Anyone watch Record of Ragnarok? Whoever fought Thor prolly a hero skin for jj🫣
Bold of you to assume they would make a female of strictly male warriors... You are right to assume that lol. Ubisoft doesnt read history books
Indeed. They managed to fuck up the Varangian Guard already.
Okay so I’m making this comment before I watch the video just to put in my speculation based on what we got.
The new outlander is a she and it’s a villain/evil as revealed in the year 8 trailer, seeing as it’s a Wu Lin season and it has a hero skin for them we can safely assume the skin will be the hero opposing the new outlander villain.
The most obvious choice would be a Mongolian hero given the fact that they are the most well known enemies of Ancient China and they were not good people.
As for the skin I’m very confident it’s going to be a Guan Yu skin for JJ and here’s why, Guan Yu lived about 1000 years before the Mongolian era but after his death he lived on in legend and was eventually recognized fully as a GOD going by the title “Saint of War” and it is said that his spirit would come back to the land of the living to help protect his country and people if they would be in need. That could 100% be a perfect explanation for the skin and it would work out because I’m sure JJ is the most player wu lin hero besides shaolin so all around it could work out.
@@ImCallMeLeo I do really like your theory I'm going to be honest I was going with the idea that the hero skin could possibly work work with the villain and I did have a suggestion on someone who would be against the villain
@@GeneralFujikiyo it just immediately clicked in my head when I saw the roadmap lol, Guan Yu is probably one of the most well known Chinese legends besides Wukong and JJ is already a very highly played hero so that covers that ground.
But I just thought who else could it be other than him? Who other than Guan Yu would stand against what I only can assume will be the current leader of the Mongolians?
The image just fits too well in my head it seems so perfect. (I really hope ubi goes this path now I have fully convinced myself this will be it 😂)
@@ImCallMeLeowe can only hope
@@ImCallMeLeobut I do really want that Korean general as a hero skin
At this point i dont want new heroes anymore just balancing only 2 of like 7 of my heroes i play have effective kits against reworked and new heroes its ridiculous how well you do is based on the character you pick i regularly see when i win or another team wins someone who has a character who has been getting attention has like 13-5 and older characters are 7-5
But thats just a theory. A GAME theory.
What's your prediction about next Samurai hero skin?
it's extremely early for me to predict what the next hero skin for the samurai we be
We need a Greek hoplite :((
Don’t get me wrong having these new hero’s is nice like it really is, but wouldn’t it be nice if we had another operation health type of season so the devs can put more time into the game’s system. Feel free to disagree if so
@@gorgosaurus4548 I would prefer for Year 9 if they don't add any Heroes just focus on fixing stuff like the faction war adding new game modes making new armour preferably new maps and so much more
Can't wait to get proven wrong and put on blast again😭👏

What about a Hwarang hero or hero skin?
No… just no. No outlander. They will just be broken and never get fixed
I just want a Mongolian hero duuuuude
@@djinni2005 same :(
pls jus give me a nunchucks hero
I guess ubisoft doesn'T know either what they want to release and they just watch your videos for idias
if that was the case that would be amazed for me
0:23 what is the name of the show that did that?
Samurai Jack
Did Ubisoft say that they would release another hero this year?
Yes
They’ve been releasing two heroes each year
The next hero is going to be a female Mongolian villain they literally said it lmao
Why is there no character from Turkish culture?
Turks have a big place in history.
For example, the janissary soldiers. There were people among them nicknamed slappers. They fought by slapping enemies besides their weapons.
On a bit of a side note, they also gave Gryphon some Mongolian-style armor. So it might have been their attempt to see the reaction of the community. But it does mean that they had their eyes on making a mongolian Hero or skin for some time now
Meh, I think its possible its a Mongolian but I think a few other cultures are probably for likely with it being a female. I was thinking and central african. Like the Dahomey Amazons. Or a female mugal warrior (though they might not because Afeera is ottaman and they might be too similar in esthetic) I would love to see a mongol but im just not sure if your reasoning is strong enough.
A Mongolian warrior princess would be sick, I really hope that's the case. I really think that's what they are doing to.
@@ZacharyDarkes I hope so too because I'll be correct
Why won’t they just give us a Spartan? I wouldn’t even care about moveset or faction, I’d main a Spartan any day
Where spartan
Gryphon has Spartan armor
What if we got a spartan though
I’d prefer a Greek hero to be male if it has to be gender locked and it could have a unique Greek weapon or combo with different kinds of Greek armors besides Spartan armor.
@dutchalwayshasaplan4956 i thought gryphon was the greek hero
@@RadxPLord No. He’s Holden Cross from Story Mode who was a Lawbringer and second in command of the Blackstone Legion under Apollyon and later defected to the Iron Legion with The Warden, Mercy, and Stone but then The Warden later called Lord Warden of the Iron Legion went missing and everyone accused him so he fled and became a wandering mercenary who travelled to places including Greece and Korea for example which is why he has those armors. So he’s a mercenary of Knight origin and the only other Knightly things about him are his old Lawbringer helmet and his French Bardiche he wields but all of his other armors aren’t Knight and he should’ve became and Outlander but he was added before Outlanders so he was added to Knights for being Holden Cross and becoming the leader of the Chimera Alliance even though the Chimera VS Horkos lore is boring and dumb lol.
@@RadxPLord hes not, idk why they gave him greek armor when he uses a fucking bardiche as a weapon
Spartan wouldn't be an Outlander, he'd be a Knight. Same with Glad and Cent. I hope we get a Spartan when the Knights get their next hero tbh.
Give us a Zulu warrior
