And a DBZ one! D.Va, Artanis and Genji have colors that reference Evangelion.

Among the basic tints I'm sure the Azure Jaina is meant to make you think of Frozen

I could understand it a little better if the reason given was because they didn't want to do unique ability effects for each skin, but that excuse falls apart too when you consider the Weird Rocky Bullshit skins for Thrall and Zul'jin.

Or if they were really skittish about confusing Rag for a Water elly, make green and white skins for him.

I can't remember the last time I saw someone pick Water Elemental. I can barely even remember the last time I saw someone pick Jaina.

Jaina used to be my girl, but that was back when Illidan was the scariest diver. Now you can draft an entire comp that hits the back line like a dump truck, support included.

There are skins with Artanis and Alarak that make them look very similar at first glance.

I'm also convinced that Cyberhawk Kael is partially inspired to Stryfe.

The skin in general is a reference to Liefeld and his bullshit. The leotard and the metal arms/legs are Cable, the incredibly stupid loving swords and boxer headgear are Shatterstar, and the pouches all over are Liefeld's habit of completely covering every single character he ever drew in little leather pouches. Edit: I can't help but link these articles every time Rob Liefeld is brought up, even if I'm the one bringing them up. Kith fucked around with this message at 03:33 on Jun 26, 2017 |

I had an all-Lunara brawl earlier this week and it was beyond awful. On the other hand, in the one I just played I was the only healer/support on both teams (loving Lúcio no less) and I like to think his heals were what enabled us to win in the end.

I mean that I knew Xena, I was in high school when the show came out, I've made references to her relatively recently what with Wonder Woman coming out, and yet when I looked at that skin I said "that looks familiar, I think it's a Conan reference."

Posting here to bitch that I was getting sperged at by someone on my team on Hanamura for "not coming down to team fight" when I was soloing a top fort kill on Sonya. Also, we hit 10 first because I was doing that. How is that not seen as a good thing? Spoiler: we ended up losing that game.

This might be a weird question, but does Malthael have a silence? I played a game as him and got the 'Silencer' award at the end and I have no idea how. Is it... A joke about how he was known as the 'silent angel' in the backstory...?
