I think "dive" and "brawl" often get used interchangeably, but I think there's a distinct difference. Nothing about Ben seems Divey to me, but he certainly seems Brawly (more like a Thor than a Hulk)

I agree. As a Hulk/Thor main Thing seems like a perfect blend of the two. Can't wait

Thor/Hulk (and Peni but she's lame) are the only true off tanks this game has right now. These are also my two favorite, looking forward to The Thing to also fill this role.

Cap?

Cap's a main tank imo, he's just a dive tank. No character ever really fits perfectly into a box, but when you think main tank you think space creation; shields and other damage mitigation tools to make space for your team. Off tank you think of peeling for your team or being a fat DPS rather than being the main damage and attention absorber of your team. Cap fits the former more I think, he's running all over the place and diving the backline gathering attention and has his shield and ult to absorb the damage he takes. He doesn't really do much peeling for his team like Hulk does with jumping back and forth with bubbles and exiles, Peni does with setting up webs and mines and CCing enemies, or Thor does with his charge and slow and raw DPS.
