Curious to see people’s preferences and opinions on arguably one of the bigger additions to Overwatch 2.
-
Hanzo. Genuinely embarrassed Blizzard claims this is a mythic skin, considering there is virtually no customization. The only thing separating this skin as mythic and putting all three wolf skins together is one (1) bow. Concept is at least cool
-
Kiriko. Others might have this higher but I find it lackluster. The new road is cool but in general I find the concept a little boring.
-
Junker Queen. I know others don’t like this and personally I am putting this lower out of consensus but I love this skin. The lightning sound and VFX are so fun and I’m a big Zeus fan in general. The blue color plus golden fun plus lightning bolt knife is actually so cool and I feel like I’m Zeus smiting people, it’s awesome.
-
Tracer. Cool concept and I liked the building it up through the “campaign”. Unfortunately it skews the coolness to only the last customization option and I would never change my loadout because of it. Also could have used more sound/VFX changes.
-
Ana. Love the Omnic concept and the voice changes are awesome. The gun effects are great and the voice line changes are sick. I just wish the head and body/cloak customizations were decoupled so I had a bit more control over it.
-
Sigma. I think I’m biased with this one but I think this is so good. The customization feels quite varied, all the options are valid, and it’s not coupled annoyingly like the Ana one. The new voiceless are great, especially the ult, and the death star beam for grav flux is sick.
-
Genji. When Blizzard says it takes a year to build mythic skins, Cyberdemon is the only one I believe to be true. Perfect marriage of the concept and Genji’s design. The two weapons are unique but equally cool. The tattoos really make it feel like you’re changing it in a more personal way, and the masks are awesome. New voice encoder is awesome, and the ghost blade is sick. I don’t know if they will ever top this skin.
7.) Tracer - it’s okay but I don’t like the design of big pointy ears sticking out of a hood I like Tolkien elves not Santa’s elfs 6.) Hanzo - lack of customizations, his fire moves that’s kinda it. 5,) Junkerqueen as Zeus I didn’t really like how the greek gods like Zeus and Hades were gender swapped. Yeah still salty that Hades skin went to Pharah and not Reaper. Queen should’ve have been Aries would have made more sense. the lighting effects are cool though. 4.) Ana - wasn’t too bad of a design but the red palette should have been Ana’s classic blue color it’s like having a reaper mythic with the color black not being an option. 3.) Sigma - this is easily one of the better ones, Space Opera like Flash Gordon/Star wars is a fantastic example of a good BP theme. 2.) Kiriko - a really good skin. Kiri gets lots of love with detailed skins but her ultimate always remains the same no matter what. Wished it changed colors at least. 1.) genji - best sound effects, best colors, best BP theme, best customization, feels like what a mythic should be. My humble opinion I’m biased for some skins I know.
