Just played against someone with a Kerrigan skin in standard. The animations are interesting, but it can make it somewhat hard to follow what is happening when it changes the animations for hero powers and such.
The main reason for my post however, is the extra amount of time I have to wait at the end of the game when I win or lose. I had to sit and look at a blighted board for an extra five seconds because the animation makes the losing sequence take that much longer.
Please let us turn off all extra animation for and from hero portraits. Don’t care if it sounds petty. Don’t care if the amount of people using those skins is minimal. If it’s adding time to wait after a game ends I want to have the option to turn it off.
(And wouldn’t you know it, I get my second person using this skin in 3 games after posting this. Winning animation seems to be slightly shorter. Still an extra 3-4 seconds.)
