I felt the same with Cyberian and the Black Tortoise skin. Zarya has the bad luck of getting good skins paired with headwear that detracts somewhat from the skin as a whole.

Would love to get a Graffiti tracer without her mask too.



Still, even though that skin looks great, I can't help but feel weary. Since I'm not spending any money on lootboxes, it's just another case where I have no way to actually work toward skins that I want. I have about 900 coins in my inventory right now, so if I get more coins I can get Casual Hanzo that I like, but that's it (and even that is dependent on the luck of me getting coins). I'm in no way looking forward to this event, because all I'm gonna be is tempted to gamble.

Them selling cosmetic lootboxes may not be as bad as them selling gameplay elements, but that doesn't make it a good system. It's still exploitative.

And give me my goddamn console skins already, Blizzard.

TFW you have biggest nade but the team just wait until they aren't anti. literally the whole team was on the payload including bastion but no one wanted to jump on them. LOL OKAY.

also
when you see the perfect anti spot but your teammate gets in the way and blocks my 'nade. LOL OKAY.

Does anyone else play defense inordinately in proportion to Attack or KOTH in QP?

Qp lobbies tend to rotate attack and defense of the same map - you're either getting team-shuffled in the same lobby or you're quitting the lobby, re-cueing and lucking into a defense round.

I don't blame you. That is a fucking awesome skin. That I won't be able to work towards fuck your lootboxes blizzard

Also, now we have a new skin meta. Arctic animals. Snow Owl Ana, Polar Bear Zarya, Arctic Fox Lucio. Just need 3 more.

Edit: It's a rare skin, not legendary, not a winter skin, and it's more of a reference to Alice in Wonderland, but I guess you could also make an argument for White Rabbit D.Va

Edit 2: Does beach rat count? It is a winter skin, and animal themed....

Edit 3: Ooh, Winston's Yeti skin counts, for sure.

Edit 4: Er...Roadhog's raindeer skin technically counts...but it kinda sucks, so....

Has the algorithm to determine POTG changed? I am getting the weirdest POTGs ever. I was imitating that lawyer whose client was trying to shoot him.

After the newest NVIDIA driver update, my game is suddenly tanking. In the menu it lags horribly and in-game it doesn't do any better either. It played amazingly before. I've tried doing a clean install of the driver and no luck. What can I do?

I typically get out of dodge as soon as the game Victory/Defeat screen pops up. I like to try to get matched up with other players vs staying in the same lobby. Most other players end up doing the same in my experience. So sticking around usually results in end up at the Main Menu re-queuing anyway. Feels like I luck into Defense all the time.

I think Sym will probably get the figure skating legendary.

Speaking of Sym, I'm finally starting to use her tp more and my god it's so much fun. I can honestly say that I like Sym 3.0 now more than Sym 2.0. It's fun tp behind enemy lines and kemting those pesky supports. Poor Ana don't stand a chance. I still miss that moving shield tho.

I'm really hoping for another Brigitte legendary. It's been a decent while. The viking one is pretty good but some of the fan art I've seen - particularly the ones with masks or cloaks, looks fitting.

So maybe I should be hoping she gets a baller demon knight costume for Chinese New Year.

These artist aren't just commission to do fanart but design the skins right? Because the ones so far looks way better and imaginative than what we had before. It's a good direction.
