I mean, it’s fine. Right, guys. All of the other characters that haven’t gotten their mythic skins are just fodder anyway. Plus, sharing is caring. (I’m kidding, I’m kidding… Or am I? Shrek Smiling Meme Template)
Anyways, I don’t like Tracer’s mythic skin. It’s too clunky; she’s wearing what looks to be heavy metal battle armor even though it’s Tracer? She’s a 100-pound stickbug that’s always zipping around… Heavy metal battle armor would just lead to instant fatigue. This is one of the reasons why Tracer is always wearing light clothing or spandex in the overwhelming majority of her skins; it just doesn’t make sense to put her in heavy attire. It just doesn’t fit her character. (I also just don’t like bulky skins in general, so there’s that too.)
Summary
(Yes, I’m aware that stages one and two of her mythic skin don’t have the heavy metal battle armor look or whatever but I just think the evolutionary skins look weird when they’re incomplete in general, so it doesn’t even matter.)
Also, can I just say that I’m really against the idea of the evolutionary mythic skins in general and I really think that we should start pushing back against that idea? Like, at best you’re going to have to spend an entire season’s worth of prisms on two underdeveloped designs with one singular completed design for your character, or if you don’t like the whole evolutionary theme in general, well, then you get nothing out of your mythic. That’s lame.
I can’t speak for everyone but I’d imagine that the lot of us want one singular theme and then three separate skins surrounding that theme. (Heterogeneity is a good thing. )
Speaking of themes, the new theme that I want for Tracer’s mythic is going to be called: Agent.
All three of these designs are going to be very simplistic and are representative of an agent that is undercover, professional, and tactical.
Tier 1 is going to be themed after the old undercover damsel in distress cliché. Tracer is going to be playing the role of the innocent civilian lady that falls down in front of the bad guys so that she can grab their attention, get them to come over and then kick their their.
For the drip for this, I was thinking something like this: a sundress with a sun hat… That’s it… (I know it’s very simplistic but as bow guy once said, “there is beauty in simplicity.”)
I feel weird linking this but I think this attire would be perfectly beffiting. https://hips.hearstapps.com/vader-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/1682354719-summer-dresses-amazon-wrap-6446b20a6a165.png?crop=0.979xw:1.00xh;0.0208xw,0&resize=980:*
Tier 2 is going to be themed after the professional agent that doesn’t like to waste time and gets straight down to business. For the drip, I was thinking a… tux. Yep, that’s it. lol
(This will also be the tryhard skin for the lot of us; I already know it)
Again, I feel weird for linking these images, but I do feel it helps to get my vision across quite well so it is what it is.
I feel like this would look gorgeous on Tracer. https://www.hertuxedo.com/cdn/shop/products/tuxwithredresized.jpg?v=1597319142
Tier 3 is going to be themed after the tactical agent who suited up to fight in advanced warzones. There are many, many iterations and ways that this could be done but I found this image, and I was like, This is it, this is the one. Maybe lose the swords, though. lol

Pulse pistols: They need to be sleeked down and thinned out as much as humanly possible to give them that lightweight, undercover look, and then each gun should have its own long suppressor. (I think for the color, her guns should just be all black.) Also, no need for other variations; these guns will be peak!
Additional customizable attire: black shades… The thuglife shades would be hilarious but I don’t think Blizzard would ever do that. Lol
Color palettes: I would say alternate between white, red, and black as the primary, secondary, and complementary colors. So for example, the first option would mostly be white with some black here and there and then there’d be a tiny bit of red on the linings and then you basically just switch them around for the other color palettes, if that makes any sense.
Special sound effects: I think just adding a suppressive overlay to the “pew pew” sound of her pulse pistols just makes the most sense.
Real talk: Do I ever think the devs are going to give Tracer another mythic skin? Sadly, probably not right. But I mean, if it’s ever on the table, Blizzard, you know where to find the idea.
If you’ve made it this far through this great text of China, great job! Here’s a pepino for your health; you deserve it.
If you would like to share your own mythic ideas in here, I would always encourage you to do that.
