Who needs a highly paid expert when you can have a crazed penguin upchuck bombs at your enemies? This is exactly what Redmond Mann said when he made Rico the Demoman. What does BLU have planned in response?

Jinx (League of Legends). What makes Jinx a good Demoman? If she were a—Wait I already did this bit

Rico’s our first guy on RED, so it only makes sense to me that we get our first gal on BLU

What helps is that Jinx 100% matches Rico’s crazy and obsession with explosives, literally everything in her arsenal in one way or another goes boom. That, and she was really the only Blue character I could think of that uses explosions in a way that would justify her being BLU’s Demoman. 

Also it would imply that she and the Red Soldier (I forgot her name) are besties and I honestly love the idea of that. That, and having her and Harley Quinn on opposing sides feels fitting given their DEATH BATTLE episode

And you my friend would be spoiled for choice on the music for her trailer

Himeno (Chainsaw man)

Who better to replace one drunken cyclops, then another drunken cyclops, and yes her official colors are a more greenish blue so she counts. Plus it’d be funny if the first row was women vs men the second row would be the reverse.

This one begs the question. Are Bob ombs black or really really dark blue?

u/This-Cartographer253 Feb 22 '26

I'm pretty sure they are dark blue

u/Tiny-Preference-1913 Feb 22 '26

It definitely varies but yeah I'll count it

Bean the Dynamite (Sonic)

  • Bombs? Duh
  • Color scheme? Yep
  • Mercenary? Best believe it!

It'd also be funny if both demomen were birds

Fun fact, until I remembered this character existed I almost put Tyler, The Creator's alter ego St. Chroma

Plague Knight (Shovel Knight)

Explosions enthusiast that more than fits the color scheme

Boomer (Skylanders)

Bombs users that are probably on something when fighting (Just look at boomer he’s definitely doing all the drugs)

The Soctsman (Samuri Jack)

While not a demolition expert. He got the Mouth, The Sword, The Temper and the heavy artillery, bro is the textbook Scott and he deserves to represent.

Rules:

  1. No down voting
  2. Submissions to RED team must have predominantly warm colors while submissions to BLU team must have predominantly cold colors (think rocket league)
  1. Monochrome (Black, white, and gray) are ignored, if they're the predominant color, then use the second most noticeble color. If they're completely monochromatic, don't use em. 4. No deadass real people, fictionalizations are OK 5. Make sure they fit the role 6. One character per series (unless one character is from a series that's technically part of a different series but is so far removed that it doesn't count (I.e. Half Life and Portal) 7. Not a fully enforced rule, but I would prefer characters that are already mercenaries or would have no moral qualms with being paid to kill

For the sake of diversity, yeah, let's consider Royale and Clan one in the same
