Return Alien Zarya

I know the controversy. I know what that OWL player did is horrible. But…

Its not like the money goes to the player does it? They already removed the player trophy from skins shoulders. There is nothing that shows the player. The skin name is “Alien” not “MVP skin of a guy who did you know what”. To me its just a skin. I dont watch OWL and dont really care about pro play. I just want the skin cause its the best Zarya skin.

Did anything ever come of that? Or was it just allegations and that’s it? Also imo it’s a very ugly skin. Fits in with Zarya being the queen of bad skins.

I can’t see it returning, when they went out of there way to offer token refunds to those that didn’t want it anymore. But I do understand your point, it’s Zarya’s best skin imo and is very fitting ATM with this season’s space opera theme.

Would be cool since it is the only Zarya skin that is decent

Might be wrong but wasn’t the accusation disproven anyway?

Not just best, it’s her only skin that isn’t straight up ugly.

Cle0h had claimed in a tweet that she “didn’t pursue the investigation” after “like April,” remarking how the stress of it was causing her a lot of pain.

That isn’t the same as disproven.

It just didn’t end up in a court case.

Was there no substantial evidence against the claim though? I thought I saw something a while ago.

Nah leave it buried.

She had audio recordings. Not sure what constitutes substantial though.

Either way there certainly isn’t any reason for blizzard to toe this line after a flood of sexual misconduct lawsuits.

He didn’t comply with the investigation so I think ultimately, that + a few other factors led to it being dropped. We won’t know. :person_shrugging:

It wasn’t disproven, and there wasn’t any evidence that was provided against the claim. It just got dropped.

Well apart from the first dump of stuff, Cle0h didn’t keep pushing it citing it as too painful.

And, as for Sinatraa, well it is very hard to prove a negative. So…

We are left in a state where there hasn’t been proof one way or the other.

Fair enough then, best to probably leave the skin untouched.

There is no “but”.
I am surprised that skin is still in the game.

Lol why would she investigate when she got 0 evidence to support her claim, it’s a classic move drop the allegations after ruining one’s career , she knew his reputation already went to sh.it . Stress was causing her pain my as.s.

Found Sinatraas alt account, dont be like this guy

Hard disagree. Barbarian, ironman-looking-one, lizard-dragon-looking-one, and plenty more are just fine.

(sigh) I may have to leave these forums. Nothing but rehashed threads, and bait topics. Wether sheer boredom, or drama that drives these topics, it’s getting rather dull.
