Outside of Guan Yu and Lu Bu, I don't know of any RoTK characters that have distinct enough looks to be recognizable.

Only ones I can think of who'd probably fit Zhuge Liang are Winston and Zenyatta, though I'd really rather someone else gets a Legendary this year. Both Winston and Zenyatta already have their own New Year legendaries.

Lu Bu has his giant feathers, and Guan Yu has his beard. What's Zhuge Liang's signature accessory that makes him recognizable no matter the art style?

Random thought.

If it can be technologically feasible, it would be really nice if there is a way to make custom Overwatch maps. Also, massive games. Like, more than 6 VS 6, like 18 vs 18 or something heroes in one game!

In which I finally decide to try and get the Bast skin, only to find out I now have only four hours left to get nine wins.

I'm two hours in and only have four wins, so it's not looking likely.

[up] It took me about 2ish hours to get all 9 wins just playing solo Quickplay as Moira and Mercy, so I believe in your chances. Hope you end up getting it. grin

Picked the game back up because a friend wasn't having fun doing comp with just one bro, so I dusted my reinhardt and dived into the world of bronze-silver comp. (i'm mid gold-high silver myself last i did comp a year or so ago)

Holy shit that was fun but oh my god the people there do NOT know how to deal with an earthshatter. I got three clips in four games of me saving/winning the game by earthshattering the entire team and recapping the point with it. A team had a bastion once and did precisely nothing with it because nobody played with it in its team.

I'm kinda afraid but very curious to try out the 4 tanks 2 heal comp in such a setting. the nightmare i t must be to deal with this...

[up] I think part of the reason is that nobody understands Earthshatter's hitbox. I still don't, and sometimes it changes its mind on where it hits and doesn't hit. You could be totally to the side of it or on a different level of elevation and still somehow get shattered.

Turns out it's Zhuge Liang Zenyatta after all, and Zhang Fei Torbjorn for good measure.

General Brigitte has also been revealed in the Korean Overwatch account. Probably a mistake by them, since Zhuge Liang Zenny hasn't been announced there.

You know, Zenyatta does fit as Zhuge Liang because to be a great Zenyatta, you do need to be a decent strategist. You have to prioritize who you Discord and give out order to your teammates to focus on them. Also, Transcendence is one of the more powerful Ults that can decide the outcome of a game, so you need to carefully decide when to use it.

So? Both Rein and Zen are getting a second Lunar skin too. Its not really hard to imagine a new Roadhog skin with say an opera mask and a rope dart or something.

Probably he didn't fit the ROTK or Korean themes so he was left out.

Oh, good thing Orisa got a skin. Otherwise her crow would have been upset.

I could see them snubbing Hog. No proof that they have yet, but they've done worse so it's conceivable.

Tired of them giving event skins to heroes that already had them for that event. That's not unreasonable to ask them to avoid, it's not like they have a limited number of heroes to give skins to or it was some kind of surprise since these were planned and sketched out over a year ago.
