Black cat Sombra isn't black at all

Black cat Sombra isn’t Black at all…it’s purple…and honestly not as good as everyone makes it out to be…and I’m a cat lover !!!

It’s good enough that once I get it, I’m considering wearing it instead of Tulum.

But it still doesn’t beat Academy D.Va.

i have been wishing for a skin tight black cat-suit for sombra for a while now and tho this is purple and has an aesthetic that seems kinda strange i still love it and for me its close enough :heart_eyes:

Black Cat in this case is a reference to the DC Comic Cat Woman*

It doesn’t look anything like Catwoman. It’s a reference to cat burglars.

Because giving it any other colour than purrprle would be a crime.

I just assumed it’s the counterpart to Dva’s Black Cat skin, hence the same name.

Yeah. Unlike cat woman, which is a reference to dog burglars.

My eyes hurt from that colour. I hate that skin because of it.

Colour? Pink? Or the whole palette?

That certain shade of pink.

Ah. I actually like it.

But I also like Oreos and lemonade, so…

No it isn’t…where did you get that from…?

The face mask, the tail, Sombra’s thievious character.

Or do you prefer hearing Marvel Comic Black Cat ?
(Which I’d say fits even less)
But who knows not EVERYTHING needs to be a reference to something else that existed prior.

Who cares, it’s the first Sombra skin without the skirt… She had no need to cover up that’s for sure. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

That is the hard choice, isn’t it.

The new skin is nice, but am I willing to give up “Aloha!” and “Hey dude!” for it?

If she said “Nyah!” it’d be time to hang up the wetsuit.

I think their point is that Sombras skin is not based on cat woman, but instead both are based off of a common theme which is cat burglars.

Though cat burglars doesn’t means a burglar who dresses up like a cat.

Or at least, that isn’t what it used to mean.

Weirdly they do exist but they aren’t burglars who dress up like dogs.

They’re burglars who steal dogs.

Yeah the skin shape is cool but the color scheme not so nice. I also wished it was darker / less saturated .
