Sylvanas skin for Widowmaker just announced!

I was watching Gamescom and they announced Widowmaker is getting a Sylvanas skin. This is really cool, but I feel like a character like Sylvanas would’ve done better as a playable character rather than a skin for 1 specific character. Widowmaker is a character I play maybe a couple times a month, and people that don’t play sniper characters won’t really play her. Besides that, Sylvanas using a sniper rifle seems weird, but apart from gender swapping Hanzo I guess she’s the next best choice. Even still, it would’ve been cool to have Sylvanas as a unique playable character. OW should really embrace guest collab characters.

Hopefully this mean we’ll eventually get more WoW characters in OW.

i kind of think i know which skin they will use but if they were daring i wish they used old sylvanus model bikini outfit lol

They actually are and its freaking awesome!

what really? you have a source by chance… its cool if you dont but now my hopes are up lol

I saw it while watching the Gamescom stream a few minutes ago. You can go watch a vod and see the announcement there. It was towards the end of it.

yea i hope its this skin that asmongold use to remember

Its not that one. Its basically her look from WOTLK. I think that look for her in the video you posted was fanart and not an official design.

They were too scared to give this skin to Hanzo I’m afraid.

…sylvanas is from warcraft 3.

and she’s been in WoW since the beginning…

Oh. That kind of makes me sad that people follow lore that deeply lol

And? I don’t know why you posted this. Its like you just wanted to state some random thing that has nothing to do with the post.

Have you… have you never played WoW?

wearing this skin in front of a venture player is gonna be like eating a subway in front of a homeless person

I was responding to the person that wanted more WoW characters, even though sylvanas is a warcraft 3 character?

How is that hard for you to understand.

(although apparently sylvanas is a wow character too which i didnt know)

I only played it for like 10 hours a day for 5 years.

And never read one thing in that game, lol.

Sylvanas was a Horde leader in WoW since Vanilla WoW in 2004! WoW is Warcraft turned into an MMO. :woman_facepalming: :woman_facepalming:

and you still are that clueless about Sylvanas? lol okay, dude.

Sylvanas is, in fact, a WoW character. She’s been in the WoW MMO for 20 years now.

The only video game writing i would ever read is final fantasy. But, that’s just me.

sylvanas was a cool wc3 character. When I played as her…

I have NO IDEA AT ALL about the lore though.

I’m not a huge fan of failed writers that have to write for video games because they can’t make movies or tv shows.
