Forge is speculated to have a close range grapple ability where he can pull enemies into him and launch them into the air. Forge can perform combos on people in the air and slam down into the ground doing damage to enemies below.
He is also speculated to have some survivability skills like a health restoration ability and some sort of ability pertaining to a new mechanic called overshield.
