If they did that I would buy it day 1.

Guessing they wont though for the sake of keeping it coherent for signalling.
They could at least do it for his ult like Mercy's


This looks shit though

Meh at Reaper, but he did get a really awesome summer games skin and already has a pretty nice Halloween skin, so whatever.

His ult already a sinister tinge to it. It wouldn't take much to make it appropriate for Z'nyatta.

And yea I have to assume the Reaper skin is a joke. There is no way no one on the team looked at that didn't realise Reaper looks goofy.

I stopped playing overwatch due to the loot box scam with all the dupes. Haven't played in months, have they done anything with loot boxes or a they still terrible in that loyal customers get extra shafted because they get more dupes?

They changed it so dupes are way less likely but increased chances to find gold to compensate
 
If they were going to do another Reaper skin why something like that? Jack-o-lantern is sooooo much better. Also they should really add pallet swaps of these legendaries just for variety sake. I really like that about HotS and its skins., and they even add new colors to old skins.

It's too bad blizzard decided to poison the well. It's good that they made some changes but experiences like you mention above left a bad taste in my mouth and I have really lost interest in the game as I feel they abused my loyalty. I have gotten so fed up with loot boxes I didn't buy forza or shadow of war two games I had wanted.

You won't get any event dupes unless you have all of the event loot of that rarity, now though. pretty good chances for event loot after the changes to no dupes were made a couple months ago

The Zen and Symm skins are insane. I've been off of OW for a bit but Symm alone looks like enough to get me going again.

Mei's Jiangshi is great, as It's a perfect fit for Halloween while also being a very clever way to incorporate a quite unheard of part of her culture as well. I really hope she gets a hopping emote. t'd be so cute.

Symmetra's Ifrit-inspired skin looks fantastic. There is some solid modeling/colour work, and I can't wait to see what her turrets and teleporter/shield generator look like.

Zenyatta looks terrifying. I’ve never been scared of Zen before, but that is one terrifying skin.

That Mei is terrible. Disappointing. The other two are on point though.
Might not be your taste, but the reference is done amazingly well and fits Halloween completely. The only thing it might need are the eyes to be a bit more dead.

They need to replace all of Zen's dialogue with him speaking in tongues

Zen is secretly the art team's favorite character


I’ve always said he’s the best designed character Blizzard has ever created in any of their games. From overall design, to voice lines, to animations he is just excellently done.

Might as well bump this with the leaks seen on Twitter. They look real enough!

An interesting detail is that the background for these pictures is inside the Eichenwalde castle throne room, obviously jazzed up for Halloween. Last year the PvE took place at the castle doors, and also served as the menu backdrop.

Confirnation of a Junkenstein sequel/expansion?

Lovely skins btw. That Sym awakens something in me.
