Worst skins for each heros (imo)

General Discussion
1

we’ve done best skins for each hero, now its time for the worst skins :smiling_imp:

Ana - Tal (I see this thing in my nightmares, like I’m not even joking)

Ashe - Jungle (it’s kinda boring, just a recolor of safari which I don’t like too much either)

Baptiste - spec ops (I just like desert ops alot better. I hate how they covered most of his face in this one, i like the color scheme tho)

Bastion - (I have no idea, like genuinely. all of his skins are cool, and his bird makes it even better.)

Brigitte - Riot police (again it’s just quite boring. I wouldn’t see myself buying this skin, it would make more sense if it was and epic if I gotta be honest)

Dva - Palanquin (this was so hard to pick because I think they make amazing skins for dva, just this one is a little ehhhh. like if you asked me if I’d rather have this one or black cat it would be obvious which one id be choosing)

Doom - Gladiator (this is all about personal preference and i know ALOT of people like this skin, but my main issue Is that they got rid of his face. for me when I think of doom first I think of his face and his facial expressions he makes when he’s using his abilities, and in his highlight Intos it looks a little awkward. but his gauntlet looks so cool!)

Echo - Birds of paradise (it looks like a jumble of colours. I know it is a a free skin so what can you really expect. I like her head piece tho, it looks really nice)

Genji - Kendoka (again this was really hard to pick but this one just doesn’t do it for me. I prefere bushi alot more and plus he has a Wotsit tied around his waist)

Hanzo - Young hanzo (everytime I see this skin I just cringe. I think it’s the hair.)

Junkrat - Bilgreat (this skin is just alot more plain than all the others, nothing really makes me go woah)

Lucio - slap shot (everytime I see this skin I always think he’s bald idk why. I love the theme behind it tho, its just the hair)

Mccree - Vigilante (banana)

Mei - Penguin (I know alot of people love this skin and i feel bad but like it just looks very awkward it reminds me of that weird wedding dress that looks like women’s sanitary product lmao)

Mercy - Dragoon (i remember I LOVED this skin when it came out. but then I just didn’t like it as much any more. her headpiece looks awkward and her other skins are so much better. her staff is really cool tho and it looks amazing when it’s golden)

Moira - Mask dancer (this might be a part of a tradition I’m not aware of so I’m sorry if I sound rude but its just too colorful)

Orisa - Immortal (again they got rid of her eyes, her main source of facial expression. in this skin she just looks dead inside)

Pharah - Orbital (with her helmet on it looks ok but with it off it makes me laugh everytime)

Reaper - Rat king (I love everything else apart from the face. maybe it’s just because I don’t like rats in general.)

Reinhardt - (again im not sure)

Roadhog - Sharkbait (he’s the less cooler version of Mako)

Sigma - (I’m not sure I’m sorry)

Soldier 76 - Alpine 76 (ok before this I genuinely didn’t know this skin existed. it looks bulky.)

Sombra - Virus (just a weird skin. I don’t like how they made her eye brows white and like it just looks so weird)

Symmetra - Architech (there’s just better skins for her)

Torbjorn - cybjorn (its very bright, i will say the color go well togetger tho, and his beard is very cool)

Tracer - Lightening (i dont have this skin but I know it exists and do I even need to say why I don’t like it?)

Widow - (not sure)

Winston - Frogston (its all just one color palette, nothing too amazing to look at)

Wrecking Ball - Paper cutting (I don’t like how they made Hammond all gold idk why)

Zarya - Cybergoth (just something about it makes me uneasy, and i actually like the punk/goth aesthetic too. maybe it’s the hair again)

Zenyatta - Sanzang (it reminds me of sexy Squidward. im not sure if thats a good thing or a bad thing…)

I would just like to say, there is no bad skins, just better ones. this is all up to personal preference as i know alot of the skins I mentioned alot of people like and i think the devs do an amazing job on skins overall! now tell me your least favourite skins for your mains :smiling_imp:

  • Pale Serpent: Completely boring color scheme, ugly loincloth with a big bow

  • Scorpion: Hides her entire face and her skin is piggy pink

  • Musketeer: Actually a cool skin, but the hat kills the whole skin for me, which is why I have to include it.

I don’t really like the two ballerina and hunter / countess skins either.

Widow itself doesn’t really have mind blowing legendary skins. I’ve been wearing epics almost exclusively for months now and OWL since last week.
I wear Nova and Côte d’Azur now and then.

Hard agree. I hate this skin the colors make me want to vomit.

Hard disagree. It’s my favorite skin for him.

Hard disagree here too. For me sugar plum fairy is by far her worst skin. I really really REALLY dislike this skin.

Disagree. I prefer this one over some of her other skins, like the base legendary skins for example or even the special edition one that we get from buying the Overwatch legendary edition.

Disagree here too. I prefer this one over all his base legendary skins and some event ones too.

But Oculus Rift Baptiste is hilarious!

Thought the same until I saw this: (you need to go to the original comment to see pictures - I can´t repost it. Or click on arrow on right corner.)

Now it makes sense to me

Personally I HATE Irin for Doomfist. The colour scheme, the hair and then you combine the gold gun… :nauseated_face: :face_vomiting:

For Widowmaker I don’t like Odile and the white version.

I actually really like this skin because of the colors, which are based on a real flower.

Her worst skin I would say is Durian:

The color does not suit Echo well. Which some of her OWL team skins suffer from as well.

I forgot about this one :skull:

I don’t blame you, I forget about it too.

10

What the heck? actually what is wrong with you? that is her best skin.

11

In my humble opinion, Bilgerat is alright. I personally don’t like Krampus.

12

For me - worst skins are basic skins (except Ashe ofc, that one is awsome)
But some heroes have even worse skins than basics:

  • Mercy: Imp and Devil -_-
  • Orisa: That demonic skin
  • Widow: Scorpion
  • Hanzo: That devil - faced skin
  • Ashe: those two skins with pyjama - like trousers
  • Diva: Junker

Between B.Va and Black Cat, B.Va is my least favorite, but I think Black Cat is the poorest design. They literally just painted Tokki a scratchy black matte with ugly pink trim, taped ears and a tail on and called it a day. The pilot costume is cute, though, and deserves better. Much as I must advocate for more D.Va cosplay, Tokki should always come first in concept.

19

I made my own list cuz I felt like it

Im not inculding common skins because thats too easy

  • Ana: all of ana’s skins are good IMO, yes even Tal, its good for striking fear into your enemy’s, that being said I think Horus is the worst because its just an ugly recolour of captain amari

  • Ashe: Thorn, its not a bad skin it just simply isn’t my style

  • Baptiste: Wasteland, its just underwhelming and forgettable

  • Bastion: Antique

  • Brigitte: Mani, it just looks ugly

  • D.va: Waveracer, this by no means a bad skin Its actually a really good skin, I just think it doesn’t compare to the rest of her cosmetics

  • Doomfist: Irin, do I even need to explain why?

  • Echo: Bird of Paradise, fight me!!!

  • Genji: its a tie between Nomad and Bedouin

  • Hanzo: Huang Zhong, he looks like he just walked out of a crappy mobile game

  • Junkrat: Cricket, Its just not for me

  • Mccree: Xiake, its just lame.

  • Mei: Mei-rry, its the fact that this is a freaking legendary that makes this her worst.

  • Mercy: Sigrun, she has red hair but her eyebrows are blonde.

  • Moira: pretty much all of them, banshee and classic are literally her only good skins

  • Orisa: Dynastine, I dislike the colour scheme

  • Pharah: Raptorian, its just an ugly version of mechqueen

  • Reaper: Desert, its horrid. enough said.

  • Reinhardt: Wujin, this one comes down to personal preference I think most of reins skins are good.

  • Roadhog: Stitched, its just flat out boring

  • Sigma: Dr. De. kuiper, he just looks like a regular old man.

  • Solider: 76: Stunt rider, he looks like a children’s toy

  • Sombra: Virus, I don’t like the white hair

  • Symmetra: Regal, again I just dislike the colour scheme

  • Torbjorn: Cathode, the white isn’t fitting for Torbjorn at all…

  • Tracer: Lighting, this wasn’t even a competition.

  • Widowmaker: Odile, its just Odette with an uglier colour scheme,

  • Winston: the majority of his cosmetics suck a** but Frogston just throws it out of the park and to jupiter, its like Mei-rry in which it doesn’t deserve to be a legendary, but at least with that skin it actually looks like good! Frogston not only doesn’t deserve to be a legendary its flat out ugly and doesn’t have a single redeeming quality, its arguably one of if not the worst skin in the game.

  • Hammon: Horizon and Lunar, there just meh at best.

  • Zarya: Cybergoth, Cybergoth is bad because it tries to mix a really bright blue and a really dark purple with different shades of gray, at least industrial has okay colour scheme

  • Zenyatta: Sanzang, its is completely outshined by zens other lunar skin, Zhuge Liang
