Create your own seasonal event skins

The rules are simple:
Pick any hero.
Describe a skin for them for each event.
The skins can be Epic or Legendary quality.
There is no restriction based on their current skin count in game.
It has to be a skin that Blizzard could feasbily include i.e no nudity or otherwise NSFW stuff nor hate speech or related paraphernalia.

In case you need a reminder of all the events:

  • Summer Games (Olympic skins or summer party skins are welcome as well as anything else you think fits)

  • Halloween Terror

  • Winter Wonderland (If possible try to avoid Christmas stuff as that gets overused quickly, but there’s no rule against it if that’s what you want)

  • Chinese New Year (This year’s animal sign is the pig if you want to use that)

  • Archives (as we can’t know what future archive events will be, these skins can be based on either previous Archive events or just things that match their canonical backstory.

  • Anniversary (Be as creative as possible)

I’m going to re-post one from another thread, but Summer Games Roadhog.

Winter jacket with a big, puffy fur collar. The end of his mask is a bit frozen, and he has winter gloves on. His hook can be a broken snowshoe (the classic ones that look like tennis rackets), and he could have a shotgun that looks like two thermoses strapped together.

That’s actually a cool idea. Don’t really like any of the current Hog skins, but that seems like an idea that I might like a bit more

Halloween Terror

Hanzo - Conquest (Legendary)

Hanzo is given a ragged cloak with a hole in the face area to show the skull mask and a crown. His bow would look a lot simpler, but for his ultimate, instead of two dragons it would be two horses instead, kind of like how his ultimate worked for his base-legendaries.

We haven’t really gotten a hanzo skin that changes his ultimate like this in ages, and while there’s probably good reason behind this, I’d still love to see something like this done, and what better time to insert a horseman of the apocalypse than Halloween Terror?

Halloween - Robin hood Hanzo
Hanzo would have a long dark blue/green hooded coat, most of his head would be covered by the hood. His bow would be made of black wood that looks like it’s decaying.

Summer - Mermaid Hanzo
Pretty simple, Hanzo would be shirtless, have long flowing hair, and his bottom half would be blue/cyan scales, his feet would be fish-like too. His bow would look like a gold, magical trident.

If anyone’s gonna get a mermaid skin, it’s gonna be Hanzo. It wouldn’t feel right for anyone else but him to have that kind of skin.

I would make a dark version of Paragon.

Back instead of white.
Keep the gold portions.
It would look nice with a gold hammer.

Fisherman skin for Hanzo and he summons too Koi fish for his ult.

Boxing Bastion. He now wears an entirely unnecessary silk robe, has boxing gloves over his hands, sentry mode resembles him being slumped in the corner (like between rounds in a boxing ring), tank mode now fires rocket fists instead of missile things and plays a copyright safe knock off of the Rocky Theme.

Mei. No special costume, just Mei.

Kwanza Doomfist. No, seriously. I’m not familiar with any distinctly African winter traditions, so that’s what comes to mind.

Isn’t there already a pig outfit for Roadhog?

College Student Mercy. This could be taken in either direction.

Robot Hanzo. Widowmaker’s outfit from the Doomfist comic. A young Torbjorn.
