so to cut it short i want to start a petition or something or rather to get genji and tracers 2018 skins placed in the current event even at the same price of the new skins. so the story goes i got on today completely excited about the all star game skins mainly because i was under the impression that genji’s 2018 skin would have been available unfortunately to my surprise he was not. now i wasen’t able to get genji’s skin last year because of life reasons but genji is not only my favorite character in the game hes the reason why i still play in hopes that he becomes meta lord freezer again “cough brig end cough” . anyway i hope this reaches jeff or anyone in the space station and they decide they want to bend some rules for a fanboy i even got genji socks man haha all jokes aside i hope you read this.
They wouldn’t bend the rules for the entire forums, let alone a genji fanboy
i like how out of that whole message you decide to try me. you must be happy
It was kind of the main point of your message
Yeahh, I was hoping they’d bring back the old ones too but… oh well. I kind of like that they aren’t. Makes the skins even more special to who got them. I saved 400 Tokens, might as well just get both of the new ones.
It makes the new skins useless to me as they just remind me of the ones I can’t get anymore.
Signed. Boycotting OWL and not sending Blizz any more money on anything until we can get these skins.
Why would they have brought them back?
It’s almost like they would get more money if they had it available more often.
Bet if they saw this comment they’d release them again
People claim the exclusivity drives sales, and it does for sure. Making it exclusive gives you more up-front revenue.
But why would you do that?
Oh, yeah, if you had to appease shareholders and only thought quarterly.
If you wanted to make more money over time and also not piss off your fanbase you would make them available more.
Blizzard has made their choice unfortunately. And they can’t go back on it because a bunch of selfish children would somehow feel “robbed” or “cheated” or otherwise treated unfairly because other people could get what they have.
While they are not yet listed as Legacy items yet, I have a feeling the original two skins were only made available during last year’s All-Star game. I am trying to find out if more opportunities will be made available, but it is very likely that was a one-time offer only.
Yeah, true, we’ve known for a while now the shareholders now call the shots. 
I suppose I shouldn’t get too worked up over a lost skin when this situation will inevitably lose a lot of people their jobs, and us our beloved game, over the next couple years. Thanks for that perspective, just disappointed right now.
It would be nice if they would properly communicate what is going to be exclusive and what isn’t.
Many people where under the impression, that the All Stars Skins would return because they are not listed in the legacy category.
And while there would still be people complaining about not being able to get the skins, at least Blizzard wouldn’t have raised their hopes up only to let them down.
I don’t have a problem with exclusive skins, but they really need to work on their communication here.
Transparency is key. Have we had any word on the Sombra Demon Hunter skin? That one was actually confirmed to be released at a later date
Hey, thank you so much for putting in the effort for us! 
It sucks you have to be the bearer of bad news but I know it’s not your call any more than mine.
Eh, if possible, please make a note for the guys whose call it is that they’ve lost my money and interest in the OWL if more opportunities will not be made available ? 
Guess that’s about all I can do.
Yeah that’s not really smart, because some people weren’t able to get them at time (like me because of false reports), they really should put them again (more money for them and people will be happy too).
I don’t understand Blizzard sometimes.
To be fair, nothing stated that Genji and Tracer would return so you hyped yourself up for nothing. If they were going to return, Blizzard would have showed them off on the advertisment for Lucio and Mercy’s release date.
I am sorry you missed them, but there was nothing stating that they were coming back.
First understand, that when promotions like this come around (Overwatch League related or not) I feverishly implore all users to take advantage of the opportunity while it is available. Deep down, I feel many of these promos are “one-time only” and simply cannot be ignored when the opportunity is around. For example, there is now a lot of uncertanity that the Demon Hunter Sombra skin will ever return despite fine print saying it will. So I hope it is realized that each of these promotions and offers need to be jumped on immediately when the opportunity arrives to avoid being disappointed later.
Now as far as trying to let higher powers know, understand I have limited communication with Blizzard (and I try not to abuse it too much). This is why I created the Developer Post Directory and it now has a new section where key questions for real-time issues (like this one) are listed, which can hopefully generate a response.
Yeah and that’s cool for people who really wanted them last year (but thx to false reports I didn’t get them) and they waited another year for nothing (+ the fact that they saved money for nothing twice).
How is that anyone else’s fault? It isn’t anyone’s fault that you held out hope a dated skin was coming back?
