It was never an exclusive item to begin with. It specifically said it would be released at a later date.

24

Best solution would be to give every character their own demon hunter skin since it is by far the best skin in the game.

25

Dragon Symmetra would like to have a word

26

Reaper skins like: soldier 24 beats bouth of those

I wouldn’t say no to every character getting a dragon skin either :smile:

0/10 post, no actual petition for me to sign

Pink Mercy was exclusive though, and for a good cause.

31

You can get Demon Hunter Sombra on the ptr now so :man_shrugging:

I mean I didn’t feel bad when the Oni and Officer skins became readily available to everyone else.

I did the whole HOTS Nexus challenges and enjoyed having them.

I got them knowing they’ll be available at a later date because I’d rather spend coins elsewhere.

I believe they actually made demon hunter sombra available for 1000 credits on the ptr so thats some good news at least!

I did those challenges without knowing that those skins would be available few months later.

I was frustrated, but not because everyone got it. Instead I wish they made it clearer on the promotion page.

HOTS challenges were a bit frustrating to players from HOTS, who voiced numerous times how “happy” they are to have random players who know nothing about the game and mostly care only about getting their skins ASAP.

Bought every other blizzcon ticket skins aside from this one as they tweeted saying you could get it further down the line in game.

You cant cry now cos u spent to get it early n now we get it for free.

Me: 1

Snowflakes: 0

I did buy the tickets back then not only for the skin but it help d greatly in the decision and back then they clearly told us that it would be available in 2019 everybody that bought the tickets only partly for the skin knew it would be.

If people that bought the tickets cry around now then that’s there own fault for buying it and they don’t have the right to cry around.

36

That is fair at least. Seems this time they’ve made it clearer about Sombra’s blizcon skin to avoid confusion. Same with pink Mercy.

Oh I have no doubt about that. But hey, it got me and a few others playing HOTS and enjoying it.

We all got to start somewhere.

37

Well, I enjoyed playing HOTS at that time too, I admit.

38

Same, see and that’s not a bad thing to admit.

granted I wasted a lot of in-game coin on re-rolls try to get the stuff I wanted :joy:

Technically fine print isn’t “explicitly”

40

I mean, I guess? But it was literally the only “fine print” on the ticket-

So its not like it was buried in pages and pages and pages of text, and wasnt exactly a secret.

Multiple sites talked about it:

(Its literally the name of the link, here- informing people)

https://www.heroesneverdie.com/2018/9/12/17853050/blizzcon-ticket-legendary-skin-demon-hunter-sombra

“Sombra’s legendary skin will be available as a standalone purchase later on for players who aren’t interested in perusing BlizzCon’s content.”

It was announced on the forums by our own Wyoming:

From the moment people saw this skin and were concerned about it being a “blizcon only” thing, people were openly and widely talking about “it will be available later”.

You nearly had to be living with patrick star to not know that if you purchased that ticket, it wasnt going to be exclusive to only blizcon ticket holders.

It was talked about pretty much everywhere that it wasn’t going to be exclusive and that it would be released to the wider public sometimes this year. And there was a disclaimer if you bought the ticket. Nothing unfair about it
