New Skin Challenge Format

Well exactly. So it’s not locked to the arcade anymore with the new system. ??

And last event it was arcade only. With any arcade mode available.

Youre making it sound like it was locked to arcade for years, when it was only 1 event 1 year ever. But okay, still think 3 pve modes was a very quick and easy way to get it, and that 9 wins is better than what we have now. But overall its not much of a difference.

That was your interpretation of it.

So I guess the logic is that with 9 wins and 9 losses you’ll get the rewards at the same speed, but won’t be punished so much for losing a lot.

Those should count as -2 each.

nb4 9 more straight wins.

i was going to link…but i just noticed replays arent recording either

9 assuming you win every single match, which is pretty rare to win 9 in a row

Who? I wouldn’t even play 27 matches on the release date of OW2. On most days where I do play overwatch, i play like 3-4 matches.

happens often in duels or tdm with a group.

If you can’t seem to win 9 games in 3 weeks, well…

More than likely, a PVE event will pop up in the arcade later this week. You can farm easy wins on Junkenstein or Storm Rising when it appears. Shouldn’t be an issue to get the required games in then.

yeah I’ve done my chores for this week

… and now I hate overwatch

the dailies and world quest crap was the reason I quit WoW

Wins should’ve been 3 pts, tbh. I know, can’t be pick and choose with this, grateful they changed the system at all, but lengthening the process overall at the cost of making it more available… eh.

it should switch to junkenstein later tonight actually…so if you want some guaranteed wins today and tomorrow are a good time to farm

9 wins for Arcade games to get 3 loot boxes yes.

For the event items each week:

9 games for each tier for a total of 27.

if you won every game, you will need to win 14 straight games (or 13 straight wins and end with a loss) to unlock all 3 tiers. 9 straight wins only gets you a total of 18 games. You are not getting 2 games counted in addition to your win, just getting 2 instead of 1 each time you win.

Winning 9 matches is drop dead easy in certain modes, especially when the anniversary update includes PvE events.
