Not only we are looking at incredible changes how the game is played, but you’ll get a glance at new heroes, new maps, and even more content coming this February and beyond.

I’m fully aware that they dissapointed us before and I should’t get my hopes up,but there’s a traitorous part of me that can’t help it.

It would be nice to get a sneak peek of something (besides a skin), but I suppose some communication is better than nothing…

Looking forward to see if they can pull off something interesting

The “groundbreaking” changes better not 6v6 because girl, we’ve been there already. It ain’t exactly new.

Hero bans?

This is a panic announcement to try to drum up interest in OW and I doubt they know yet exactly what will be in Spotlight - what they can pull forward from future seasons to release sooner to make things look better than they would with the previous timetable.

Hehe, gives me the impression they can’t get the signup numbers they want and are going around begging the old CCs for OW to come back and join this event. Most of them don’t play OW at all any more.

Also strange they are announcing major gameplay changes but haven’t yet let the CCs try them out to make sure they pass muster. Sounds like a recipe for disaster if only the devs have played with the changes. Their record isn’t great (flash, clash, push, …).

why do i get feeling “ground breaking” isnt going to be all that ground breaking.

also, did you have to pick the ugliest (and laziest given its a recolor) skin as a reward for tuning in :sweat_smile:

They are going to add horrible card systems and kingmaker nonsense and call it ground breaking.

Obviously shills here will say they love it all

“ You’ll also be able to pick up the Lucio Cyber DJ Legendary Skin as an exclusive drop when you watch one hour of these creators’ streams.”

oh no… wasn’t this skin literally just released into the shop?

If you have to call it ‘groundbreaking’ it’s probably not going to be good.

I mean, hero bans would certainly be the easiest way to shake it up the most. The lowest hanging fruit if we don’t count 6v6 (besides, proper 6v6 is not easy at all - it requires a complete rebalance if done properly - though of course, even if they go for 6v6, they won’t bother to do it right… as usual)

Yeah,this is gonna be an issue. They refunded Owl Guardian Mercy when it was in a similar situation. They still have time to pick another skin for the drop.

“Its too much to pack in a blogpost”

Well… how about TRY at least to get us hyped for SOMETHING? 3 heroes and 3 maps a year does not cut it anymore and “groundbreaking gameplay changes” should better start with reworking Ana and Widow.
