I hate to say it but the trailer production value is very good. The skins, if you care about that, are looking very good. Ands Cowboy bepop teaser is nice

22

Why should Mercy get the mythic before Moira?

23

I ll go with Grand Muffin

24

How’s that a “full competitive rework”? It’s barely a rework.

25

The art/design team carries ow at this point. They are very good at their job.

26

Nah, just boosted Mauga players

soft reset at max
can you explain how the ranking system changes? I only see ui changes, basically.

I don’t work for blizzard, so no, I can’t. My GUESS is that they changed it a lot though, because they are resetting ranks.

31

youre just as bad as AKJ in terms of being annoying. you give Mercy players a bad rap by constantly complaining even though she got TWO LEGENDARY SKINS WITHIN A MONTH OF EACH OTHER. please, for the love of all that is pure in this world, stop.

Mercy does not deserve a mythic skin any more than any other character in the game.

Get over it.

Mercy isn’t special.

I don’t see a connection here. They can just do a soft reset and that’s it.

It was needed. Current Rank system is broken and needed to be reset. Suggestion, hold off on playing Competitive for first few weeks. This way all high-level players will get their 10 placements done and better chance to have level games.

But they wouldn’t do that if the system was the same. You don’t understand that?

36

I wonder if it’s any different from Cree formal wear

37

They are saving mercy mythic for an emergency situation. Like controversy or something.

Ah 100% needed.

But I garentee people will flock to the forum complaining about losing ther totally legit and earned GM rank they got back in season 4 on a broken hero/carried by others

Because Moira’s prettier and cooler.

I mean most of those skins were Battle pass stuff. So like 10$ for Cathulu torb / nightmare Moira / Cup roman Bastion. I’m all for that.

The Cosmic horror event that goes with it is looking dam good, their is even some map reworks to go with it. Like the central point is monster possible stage hazard.

People were asking for a rank reset for like since two years into release.

Also like outside of the trailer we know OW is getting a major balance overhaul to go with it.

Plus there should be new map this season? Not a 100% sure tho, but we do know junkertown is getting a rework on it’s first point. So it’s not as heavily favored by the attacking team.
