Remember that outrage about a week ago over Tracer's lack of spunk over the shoulder pose? Blizzard just changed it. It definitely has spunk now

I like that pose better to be honest

 

[GrizzNKev]

Better suits the character.
Butt still visible.
Everybody wins.

 

[Eolz]

Lol!
Guess they satisfy everyone with this uh?
Good job Blizzard.

 

[RecRoulette]

That's actually a really great pose.

 

[KZXcellent]

I like this pose better. It's a happy medium too, everyone wins.

Oh... My... God... It's even better. I love that Blizzard just gave the middle finger to that person who complained on the forums over that previous pose.

 

[VichoCardenas]

Well, Tracer now really looks more cheerful and according to her personality

 

[JoeBoy101]

Better suits the character.
Butt still visible.
Everybody wins.

Yup. But seriously, it really does suit her more. Butt visibility is just icing on that asscake.

 

[LUFTRAUSER]

This one is cooler.

 

[Luigi87]

Really nice pose that is more fitting.

Spoiler

Tracer is bae. Now if only I would have ever got an invite D=... oh well, next month

 

[Flarin]

Is it just me, or does this new pose accentuate her ass even more? I don't care either way TBH. This whole debacle has been so dumb.

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

It looks better, actually.

 

[Salz01]

Good job Blizzard. Everybody wins

 

[SageWaterDragon]

I still can't say that I'm happy that they buckled to one complaint, but hey, at least it wasn't a huge loss. Hell, it might've even been a gain, that new pose is pretty neat.

 

[Sorcerer Supreme]

awful

 

[Firestorm]

Oh... My... God... It's even better. I love that Blizzard just gave the middle finger to that person who complained on the forums over that previous pose.

How far up your butt do you need to be to think that this is what they did?

 

[HabeeNo]

Nice job Blizzard

 

[Farsi]

Everyone wins

 

[Ushay]

That's better then the previous, now with even more ass haha! Oh Blizzard..

 

[Nokagi]

I can still see her butt.

 

[Obliterator]

I actually do like this pose more

 

[TreIII]

It's a bit more stylish, you still see dat ass, can't really find any fault.

 

[blamite]

what a surprise, it's better.

 

[Imbarkus]

Compromise: an acceptable solution that allows all involved parties to move forward because none of them felt they "won."

 

[Kemal86]

"Buckled to one complaint"

Yeah. That's not what happened here, but keep living in your imaginary cloud kingdom.

 

[Gxgear]

The new pose looks quite uncomfortable.

 

[Ryaaan14]

Much better high-heel bubble butt effect 👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿

 

[Novel Mike]

So... can still clearly see her ass... I'm confused blizzards own words made it seem like they were against her showing her booty yet this still shows her booty and honestly it is a more 'fun' pose.

I'm not against this at all I'm just confused by blizzards own stance, if they would have just said 'we are tweaking the pose to be more in line with the character and her fun personality instead of just a copy/paste of Widowmakers' wouldn't that have like negated most of the drama around this?

 

[Verder]

i fucking love tracers design.
im expecting alot of cosplays for her.

 

[DR2K]

I don't see a difference as far as objectifying her butt. If anything this pose is more inviting and less natural than before.

 

[Mushroomer25]

New pose is way better. Spunkier, cooler, and still has ass. While the first could be interpretted as just a stiff way of presenting 'the goods', this makes it seem like she wants you to look. Which is the entire key. Visible sexuality is great, as long as it's made clear that the intention is coming from the subject themselves.

Spoiler

This was still a dumb thing for anybody to get mad at.

 

[kamineko]

Seems fine.

 

[-MD-]

I like the new one more, they actually appeased both sides and we ended up with an upgrade.

Nice job, Blizz.

 

[Dennis]

Eh doesn't seem like that much of a difference to be honest.

 

[jacob armitage]

Seems like an improvement.

 

[secretanchitman]

This one is better. Like it!

 

[-tetsuo-]

I can still see her butt though

 

[zhixson]

Hey, now there's a right decent compromise.
It's "more in line with her character" and I can still see booty. Win win.

 

[Kayant]

Eh doesn't seem like that much of a difference to be honest.

.

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Better suits the character.
Butt still visible.
Everybody wins.

This, heck, just maybe we won't have an internet meltdown?

Yeah right V_V

 

[Diablohead]

Side-butt for everyone

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Way better but doesn't really address the problem some people have.

I'm sure it's still too lewd for some.

Also where is the MS paint guy with the green lines? i'm sure she's still looking at her butt.

 

[LQX]

Either looks fine to me but what am I missing? I can still see her ass. Was that not the outrage?

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

Hahah how does that alleviate the original complaint?

 

[BananasWithGuns]

Well that pose doesn't look like it would be good for her back.

 

[RockTurtle]

Hometown should never be denied

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

Not bad Blizzard. Not bad at all.

 

[Kindekuma]

I like it a lot!

 

[NightShift]

Major props to the team for how they handled this shitty situation and finding a right solution. I can't imagine anyone complaining about this.
