I heard somewhere that all skins would be buyable during the anniversary event - is that true?

That wouldn’t explain not being able to buy the other event stuff. It was their laziest event ever, and given how bad Mei’s Snowball Offensive originally was, that is saying something.

I totally felt how grateful they were to us fans. /sarcasm

When should we expect the anniversary event?

Only the seasonal event skins.
Exclusive skins like the Blizzcon skins or the OWL gray skins will not be made available.

I’m getting all the skins I missed in this anniversary event :sunglasses:

:penguin:

They didn’t plan it as intended
We were getting the same legendaries from events over and over and only getting 200credits when they costed 3000 after all

(Big edit because I didn’t understand it well at the beginning)

People wanted a chance to buy items they missed during a past event, especially given how that first Summer event was handled. Look, the first Anniversary Event was a glorified loot box commercial. Nothing more, and hardly anything worth buying either.

I think this is the best description I’ve heard lul

Sadly it is, but they decided to promote it in a live stream as “a thank you to our fans”. The only thing most fans felt was a desperate attempt by Blizzard to reach into their wallets.

All cosmetics are available besides limited time skins. You can get witch mercy for example but not pink mercy.
