these are way more interesting that christmas stuff
[QUOTE=ChickenMan99;51699892]Man, with that Winston skin, I've gotta ask- does every game that's popular in China need some form of Wukong?
Warframe and Dota 2 both have their versions, too.[/QUOTE]
Sun Wukong is probably the biggest character in Chinese mythology.
He appears in LoL and SMITE as well, and there's a lot of other influences all over the place. It was bound to happen.
It's so that they don't lose their market to Legend of Titan

I expected there to be Ne Zha and Guan Yu skins, but more JttW skins is also good.
What is really wonder is what kind of skins are we getting for Valentine's Day

I suppose that's fair, but I've never seen any other Chinese mythologies get adapted.
Is there nothing else to draw from? Or is Journey to the West just THAT iconic?

I don't understand what you mean by this. Yes, it is. It's one of the most significant pieces of Chinese literature of all time.
i dont know why, but i dont really like the idea of some heros having more legendary skins than rare/common skins. I feel that their should be a lot more of them.

It kind of is. It was the main inspiration for the orignal Dragon Ball after al.

I just find it strange how ubiquitous it is.
It's not like, say, Gilgamesh or Beowulf show up this often is all.
I wish I could sell my skins back to the game
Golly gee I sure love how literally every one of my 3+ man revives ends up in a Zarya graviton surging everyone I just revived plus me and getting POTG off of it.
This evening one of my best pals in real life and Overwatch primary comrade downright ragequitted the game all of a sudden without telling us anything in voice chat too.
I'm getting worried about the, shall we say, [I]side effects[/I] the game is starting to have on him
That Zenyatta skin is [b]so fucking good.[/b]
The Chinese adore their mythology, every time a game tries to grab their attention they put in Sun Wukong at the least

One of my friends turbo rages sometimes and abruptly quits/leaves Discord. It's sad people take the game so seriously.
As long as I get D.va and Mei I will be happy.
i dont take the game all that seriously but when im being shit on constantly by someone thats better than me anger gets the best of me and i just leave the match out of frustration
[QUOTE=Coyoteze;51695268]
Numbers aren't everything. Ana can't heal from around a corner, Ana can't overhead heal using a flying ability, Ana can't sweep in to bring an entire team back from the dead, Ana can't swoop anywhere in general and (when cornered) is utterly fucked.[/QUOTE]
Several pages late but I can't resist pointing out that Ana is way more capable when cornered than Mercy is. I've been playing Mercy for a good bit now and while you can get out of rough situations with flight and a pistol, it's far less common than getting absolutely destroyed. Even a half decent Ana can use a sleep dart to completely neutralize a tank and get far away before he gets back up. Reinhardt especially is useless against an Ana with any reflexes at all.
What frequently happens with me as Mercy is that someone shows up next to me, I swoop away to the nearest tank, and they just follow me and usually kill me right next to the tank and get away with it because nobody pays any attention to their fuckING HEALERS
if only healers had a help voiceline you could use...but that would be too big of a quality of life change for blizzard to undertake, better just throw us more skins
[QUOTE=Captain;51700016]I expected there to be Ne Zha and Guan Yu skins, but more JttW skins is also good.[/QUOTE]
Who would even get the Ne Zha skin? Lucio?
I seriously wonder how the fuck Ana actually made it in the way she did
like at no point did anyone at the team compare stats and realize Ana outperformed Mercy in [I]every[/I] way?
seriously, healing, damage, and those are just the stats
that's not counting not having to switch weapons, mercy has a projectile while ana's is instantaneous, ana has combat functionality where mercy does not, ana can bring down any tank you throw at her while mercy can only try to run away with that slow ass shitty flight
Mercy's whole thing is that she's the only [I]dedicated[/I] healer, so she [I]only[/I] works if she's the best at what she does
and she objectively isn't
I really still hope we get a talonified/"evil" event one day with several skins for the other heroes.

tumblr links have been doing that lately, just super compressing random images at random times then going back to normal later.
