I really wish there were a clientside option to disable holiday cosmetics or even cosmetics altogether, maybe on a case-by-case basis in-game
Like TF2 is guilty of the exact same thing, but at least they leave the weird Halloween skins disabled most of the time. Hate how you have to play on a vanilla server and exclude yourself from most of the game's content to get an experience that isn't hideous.
I want new gamemodes over new cosmetics/heroes.
The only thing I can possibly see myself caring about for this event cosmetic-wise is a Santa skin for Roadhog where his hook is a candycane.
Awful Christmas sweater of Reinhardt please, let him fully become the overly cheerful grandpa trope.
Too bad Blizzard goes for non-denominational holidays. We could have a Jewish Mei that summons a giant frozen menorah for a wall and her cryo could be a dreidel.
Hoping for tastefully revealing clothing for the ladies, and (like always) some [I]direct[/I] references to other media. C'mon Blizzard give d.va an Evangelion colorway. Give Sombra an Acid Burn skin. You know you want to. I'll pay for it.

you can't really do much with grandpa rein since he's all suited up
now, if you put the sweater... [I]over the armor...[/I]
I just want new Mei skins
I just want a new holiday themed D.va skin.
To be honest, I am also glad this will be the first event in-game where we also get extra weekly special event crates from the weekly arcade stuff too.

That's why I'd love a map editor and Arcade akin to SC2.
Already saved up 1k .. but I bet it will be 3k for xmas skins (Like the Halloween event).
I'm sure that Torbjörns new intro, is a turret inside a present.
And since hes the only one who gets a new intro, skin and voice-line (If the data-mining are right). I bet his skin is Santa or an elf.
Maybe Reinhardt is Santa and Torbjörn an elf.

Honestly, I think a santa Roadhog would be really funny, with an elf Junkrat. But they both already got skins for Halloween

I think Junkrat fits better as Jack Frost. (Snowballs) or Zen.
And Pharah as a reindeer.

$1 says she's the one in a santa costume instead of roadhog

She needs a Mrs. Claus skin

nope, full beard

I have good news for you, sir! Character artists don't design game modes, so this isn't slowing down any progress.
Mei should get a summer skin during this event
Soldier 76 needs a really awful Christmas sweater, slacks, and a pair of loafers.

Basically this, but with a Christmas theme.
