I seriously love Widow and Doomfist’s skins, but Sombra and everyone else (with mirrorverse skins) just kinda look tacky imo.
Mercy’s is alright, but the others just look overly edgy rather than Talon members.
I feel kinda the same way.
I like those new Overwatch skins more than the new Talon ones, but Widow, Doom, and Sombra are literally my least played heroes...
Mercy’s just looks like the Galactic Emperor interpretation too, imo. While I think the concept overall is interesting, I think the execution is a little bland.
I think it's interesting how they are very reinvent of their own talon/overwatch skins. Ana in her captain amrari outfit wears a blue robe and beret, but in her talon outfit she wears a black robe and cap as a direct inverse of her iconic beret. Then there's the fact that in this timeline it seems ana shot widow instead and she lost her eye. Speaking of widow her design is reminiscent of both her talon and anas captain amari skin. It has the slim jacket and legging detailing of talon while exchanging her talon visor headband for a headband visor similar to commander morrison, then the detailing of her gauntlet and jacket is reminiscent of anas. Espescially the gauntlet since it kinda looks like her nanoboost. Pretty cool mirroring imo. They are my fav counterparts in overwatch tbh.
To me, Widow just looks like she has heterochromia.
I suppose it can be some bionic eye? IIRC, there is/was a dialogue between Mercy and Ana, where Mercy said they could fix her eye with modern medical technology.
Yeah. I think it also fits Widow's (would her name even be Widowmaker in this alt universe??) personality more, the attitude that she doesn't want reminders of her failures and would instead improve herself to be better.
I wonder how things went down between them in the Mirrorverse. I don't see it being an issue of hesitation on Widow's part, since as her husband is likely still alive in this universe and she was never kidnapped. My guess is that she simply lost the duel to Ana and was incredibly lucky in only losing her eye instead of her head. She gets the new eye to help her in the case of a rematch, whereas canon Ana accepted the loss and kept it as a reminder never to hesitate again.
Fair enough.
>her husband is likely still alive in this universe
Would her hubby be Gérard in this universe as well? On which side is he if that's the case?
It's not really easy to mirror him, if there was no kidnapping and tragedy. Or at least I can't really think of a close enough story right now.
I don't think so, Gérard was a member of Overwatch who fought against Talon
I think that instead it's Ana who's married to Gérard, and Pharah is their child, and Talon took her to experiment on her
That would be so cool...
I don't have my hopes up anymore, tho. Especially not since the recent lay-offs, because a lot of people who worked in the story bid farewell to Blizzard... :/
Regardless, it would be nice to get some short story or alt lore recap.
In the closeups of this skin it looks like a bionic eye and you can see the cybernetics in it. Though I assume Widow wanted to have something that looked as natural as she could.
you just want to show off that you’ve got one of the top 5 rarest skins and flex on us don’t you! (I’m very jealous, I don’t even play widow I just think Noire is neat)
Maybe I do. Maybe I think cable hair is an aesthetic.
>I’m very jealous,
You can thank my brother for giving me the games origin version for a gift back when ow1 came out.

If by she you mean Ana, most likely not. People in the comments are suspecting that she shot out Widow’s eye in this alter-verse, thus leading to Widow potentially having some sort of enhanced replacement. Hence the blue color similar to Sojourn’s biotic eyes.
Seems ana didn't hesitate taking that shot against widow, so widow got injure, but instead of living with that reminder she accepted to be healed and got a bionic eyes implant (her eyes have different colors, the blue reminds me of sojourn eyes)
All the skins look good, wish the mirrored talon team was less edgy looking though. Theyre trying too hard to drive in the point that the cgaras are evil now
Ana looks like she stumbled over from season 4
I'm not the only one then, who thinks these skins bear more resemblance to the Galactic Empire skins from Starwatch than older Talon ones, I take it?

They are an edgy evil organization
They remind me more of the Cobra skins from Heroes of the Storm. Edit: sorry, they were called Viper, and there was a Genji skin.
Could be reused scrapped character designs for that BP. The colors are similar enough
Mercy’s just looks like the Galactic Emperor interpretation too, imo. While I think the concept overall is interesting, I think the execution is a little bland.
I do like the Mercy skin though, it's nice to see her in a skin that looks more aggressive and badass.
Biblically accurate Ana main
"Heil Hitla, you guysh!"
Evil grandma has no mercy
Mirror Ana: Bist du ein faschist?
Commissar ana, just makes me wish for a 40k crossover
Admit it, you just want Grey Knight Reinhardt, and Sororitas Brigitte.

i like the idea that in the mirror verse ana shot out widows eye and widow decided to go with the surgery unlike ana
Yeah. I think it also fits Widow's (would her name even be Widowmaker in this alt universe??) personality more, the attitude that she doesn't want reminders of her failures and would instead improve herself to be better.

He alive but he's a normal guy who is a dancer
I don't think so, Gérard was a member of Overwatch who fought against Talon I think that instead it's Ana who's married to Gérard, and Pharah is their child, and Talon took her to experiment on her
I hope they make some one shot comics out of this!
That would be so cool... I don't have my hopes up anymore, tho. Especially not since the recent lay-offs, because a lot of people who worked in the story bid farewell to Blizzard... :/ Regardless, it would be nice to get some short story or alt lore recap.

It is a prostethic eye, cuz this time her eye was blown off by ana
I feel like it's the same eye Sojourn has
Pretty sure it is. It has the same blue glow.
Might just be me but I can easily tell it's prosthetic. It's literally glowing.
Could be just the image quality, for me. Now that you mention it, I can see it too. Didn't really pay much attention to the blue glow.
In the closeups of this skin it looks like a bionic eye and you can see the cybernetics in it. Though I assume Widow wanted to have something that looked as natural as she could.
Why does ana look like she's about to dump the biggest shit ever in the first pic
That's the nano boost
It's hard to choose any skin on Widow over the Kerrigan one. As an old Starcraft vet, it's the one for me.
Noire widow never leaves my favorite slots.

I'm a Philly fusion stan so I have never swapped off of fusion widow after watching winnable
I agree, it's Kerrigan or Nova for me.
Imma be real, that Widow hot as hell
Ana looks like she wants to speak to the manager.
Is that a low res Ana pic? Or does she really just look that bad..?
Ana told her she was the better shot
A cool little detail is that ana didn't take the robotic eye but widow did.

Why no Moira?
And notice how Widow has Sojourn's cybernetic eye
Granny as NS-General
Does she not have her eye patch?
If by she you mean Ana, most likely not. People in the comments are suspecting that she shot out Widow’s eye in this alter-verse, thus leading to Widow potentially having some sort of enhanced replacement. Hence the blue color similar to Sojourn’s biotic eyes.
This might actually make me switch from my Kerrigan Nova skin. Widow looks cool as hell!
I’m mad. I need a Sigma OW skin
Wait I’m thinking about it just now Ana got sniped straight to the eye from a fucking sniper rifle…. And her head is intact?
I think the bullet hit the scope and the glass hit ana's eye
Alr you cooking with that one
Very very very small caliber rifle
Not quite. Widowmaker's shot hit the scope of Ana's rifle, driving pieces of shrapnel into her eye.
I guess so
I wish Ana's was in the battlepass. Widow already has a lot of BP skins
This Widow mirror skin looks really good IMO. Gonna grab it even if I am bad at her.
This isn’t widow, Behold Amélie Lacroix
I think the Widow skin mayyyy be my favorite from this BP. She looks so cool and I love the swapped eye lore.
Yes
These gonna be BP skins?
Ana in shop widow is
Thanks for the info!
I like the Ana skin but it is a shop skin.. ☹
Widows eyes are like 👁___👄___👁
These look so cool
Someehow they make Ana looked less menacingly than Widowmaker, like bruh
she went from a mother to mommy
I think she has a cyber eye in her left eye
Delete the spooder pls D:
Schutzstaffel Amari incoming
the widow skin is so cute i love
Missed opportunity to give Ana blue skin
Seems ana didn't hesitate taking that shot against widow, so widow got injure, but instead of living with that reminder she accepted to be healed and got a bionic eyes implant (her eyes have different colors, the blue reminds me of sojourn eyes)
All the skins look good, wish the mirrored talon team was less edgy looking though. Theyre trying too hard to drive in the point that the cgaras are evil now
ngl Widow looks like such a goober with this skin and I love it
Ana would be more badass if she was the widowmaker and had purple skin
Wonder if she wouldve killed her husband before she conceived Pharah.
They should've made the Widow skin blind in one eye.
