- A year ago, I was constantly mocked by a Diamond for being in Gold, to the point I didn't even want to play any more. Every day, I'd get a snarky out-of-context comment on my social media group talking about my rank. Today, I reached Diamond for the first time, spending only one season in Plat.

Renaissance Widowmaker "FAN SKIN" Posted: 24 Feb 2018 10:31 AM PST Link to image = ( BTW, I messed up, it's not renaissance, it's French revolution, upsi https://www.artstation.com/artwork/5Dk4w I don't know what I am doing... made a fan skin, and making more because this was too much fun... hehe, overwatch hire me, I need a job (`◕‸◕´+) also as a side note, I'm not so sure if this skin works or not, the hat and the long cape really changes her look... but it's fun to just imagine and do something else... Next skin concept will be more, working? [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Not surprised Reinhardt chose the name Bridgette. Posted: 24 Feb 2018 12:12 PM PST A quick google search led me to this. Bridget or Brigid is a Gaelic/Irish female name derived from the noun brígh, meaning "power, strength, vigor, virtue". An alternate meaning of the name is "exalted one".

Ana Seriously NEEDS a POTG Chance Buff! Posted: 24 Feb 2018 12:43 PM PST As an Ana main, I just can't stand not being able to get plays. I've gotten two in my entire overwatch career and it sucks! Moira and mercy can both get plays for doing a lot of healing and damage, so why can't Ana? Honestly you either get a saucy nade, or you get a play for doing nothing. This is just my opinion but I think she needs to be able to show off her new highlight into, and just have some new light shine on her.

Posted: 24 Feb 2018 11:56 AM PST I never thought a script made of two hours of work and research would be so well received! You guys made me have my first "RIP inbox" and gave my post almost 1k karma. Thank you all so much! Truthfully, I needed all of your emotional support that day. I've been trying to get my first writing job for video games for almost ten years. At one point, I gave up because I couldn't take the disappointment of being passed over for someone with experience (which is understandable). I grew bitter and resentful because everyone who works in the industry seem like this club that I couldn't join. The party was behind a wall, and no one was showing me the way in. But I couldn't give up, it was like an itch that I couldn't scratch, a fire refusing to be extinguished. Life got in the way, bills need to be paid, and I'm not getting any younger . But every single one of you fill me with hope again, and I hope one day Blizzard hires this thirty-something old coot. Anyway, I'm thinking of making this a monthly thing! A short film script that explores more of the hero's background. What do you guys think? [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Blizzard is playing some MIND GAMES re: Hero 27 Posted: 24 Feb 2018 01:41 PM PST Let's do a detailed rundown of the details we know so far:
Briefly, let's review the Orisa teaser campaign from last year (Feb 21st through the 27th, and Orisa was revealed on March 2nd): the first post was the interview with Efi (establishing her character, her relationship to Numbani, and her engineering chops), the second post showcased the attack on Numbani by Doomfist (mainly the damage at the Numbani airport), and the third post was Efi's parts list for her build. The throughline between all three posts was the mention of the OR-15s (Efi mentions them in her interview, they're identified as being destroyed in the airport attack tweet, and an OR-15 chassis is at the top of Efi's parts list). Now, back to the stuff we've got right now: Ana's report gives a ton of evidence to suggest that we're getting a new Uprising-style event, taking place on a new map (rather than a re-decorated existing map) AND that we're getting Emre as a hero.
Hence, there is a lot of evidence to support the idea that Ana's report is teasing an Uprising-style event, and that this event will take place on a new map in Istanbul, and that the fourth character on this map will be Emre as an offense hero. However, Torbjorn's letter never mentions the mission or Emre. As the second teaser in a series, it's weird to say "we're teasing an event and map and hero" and then release something that doesn't have anything to do with the event or the map or the hero specifically referenced. Instead, Torb's letter focuses on his relationship to Reinhardt, and Reinhardt's relationship to Torb's daughter. It's been established elsewhere that Torbjorn's daughter Brigitte grows up to become Reinhardt's armorer, which a lot of people are using to springboard to a conclusion that 27 is going to be Brigitte. But there are a few reasons to question that conclusion.
All that said, there's reason to believe that Brigitte IS Hero 27. The first teaser gives us the catalyzing event for Reinhardt and Torbjorn's close relationship. The second teaser expands on that by showing Torb's interest in making Reinhardt a key part of his daughter's life. If the third teaser continues to focus on Torb and Reinhardt or suggests Brigitte in a more overt fashion, then it means the entire campaign was JUST about Brigitte, and the map/event/Emre speculation were all red herrings. Aside from that, Brigitte has made a lot of appearances in the lore so far, most recently in the Honor and Glory cinematic where her design has clearly been firmed up. She's got a voice actress and a ton of connections to existing characters to build off of. It is also possible that Blizzard is teasing both at the same time: Brigitte comes out as our spring release hero, and Emre comes out as our summer release hero after being previewed in the Uprising event. So, the TL;DR is that this could be teasing Emre AND the new Uprising event on a new map, OR it could just be teasing Brigitte. OR BOTH.
