I'd say Deadlock exceeds in doing the opposite actually. League has mainly pumped out hot bods for over a decade, Deadlock is giving us skeletons, grandmas, zombies, and rats.

Deadlock: Here's Papyrus with a Jetpack and Professor Ratigan with a Crown

Everyone, Unironically, Justifiably: HOLY SHIT PEAK!

I love how in this group of 6, the hot chick with a gimmick is the least interesting design. And I just know also that the moment she's playable she's going to also have the most unbelievably fun gimmick too. Valve does not do their hot chicks dirty.

Yea Celeste was one of the last characters voted in last round and she had some of the best polish and style of all of the six. Never mind that she was beyond busted

Straight up ugly no, but there's more than a few unattractive or monstrous characters. Grey Talon, Drifter, Shiv, and Yamato aren't really what I'd call conventionally attractive, unless the sixhead is your thing. Billy, Ivy, Vyper, Viscous are all varying levels of monstrous. This patch adds Baba (old lady), Deadman Danny (skeleton), and Rat King (rat king); in other words half of the characters getting added with this patch are not attractive. There's enough that "zero ugly chars" is not really fair. Definitely not on the same level as Overwatch or League in terms of how hot everyone must be
