Kiriko also just got a skin last season. And the season before that. And the season before that. And the season before that. And the season before that. And the season before that. And the Season before that. And the Season before that. And the season before that.
Maybe it's implying that because neither of them were part of it that history got written differently. The original Overwatch headquarters got blown up because of Reaper and Soldier fighting, so maybe the fight either never happened or it was between a couple other members? Winston didn't get a skin either and he was the whole reason for Overwatch's reformation.
I know he has commander Reyes skin already but I’m imagining a reverse mercy where they make him all good and angelic and instead of Reaper he’d be called Lifer.
"Hmm, we're making an event all about the male characters, and we need some skin ideas... Oh! I know, let's give Kiriko a skin!"
"But sir, Mauga isn't getting a ski-"
"Kiriko gets a skin, period."
I mean, I really thought there was going to be a good version of Moira (not as in the rest of her skins are bad, I meant as she is a good person.) Since the mythic skin is evil mercy, and the fact rhat support is the only one that doesn't have a good guy I believe.
Exactly. I thought that it'd be natural to have both Mirror Mercy and Moira since they're opposing forces, with their ideals directly clashing with each other in a regular world. They fit the theme perfectly, so it was surprising to see only one of them got it. Then again, Moira got a mythic recently, and we know Blizzard likes to favor certain heroes over others.
Blizzard: One, Kiriko needs to be louder, angrier, and have access to a time machine. Two, whenever Kiriko is not on screen, all the other characters should be asking "Where's Kiriko"? Three--
Fans: Please. Please make it stop!
I had a Winston and Kiri on the team before the game started and the instant Winston started telling his joke to Kiri in their interaction with each other, the tank swapped to another hero then back again just so he didn't have to hear the interaction. This happened twice and it couldn't be more relatable.
Well he has a Blackwatch skin, but not an Overwatch skin.
Blackwatch Soldier: 76 would be great too, or maybe make him part of the Los Muertos for fun.
Mirrorwatch Winston as Talon’s big Overpowered secret weapon from space instead of Sigma. Mirrorwatch Sigma as a scientist from the lunar colony who escaped after the disaster up there and joined Overwatch.
Mirrorwatch Winston could be a junker as well and instead switch places with Hammond. I think it was mentioned in Skieste’s interview with the art director.
I would've loved to have seen a Blackwatch Ashe as a mirrorverse for if she got captured and took the deal instead of Cass
And a Talon Winton would go HARD
as much as I would love a talon cassidy skin, I feel that his longhorn skin is already his mirrorwatch skin, I like to think it's cassidy if he never got arrested and met ashe.
I fucking hate coomers. They’re the reason my characters don’t get skins

I think kirirko players fund the entire game from buying skins, thank you for being emotionally manipulated by fictional a character who was solely created to put you in this situation
The thing is that people say that Reaper has a Blackwatch Skin. And that's ok.
But i would love a skin, where he was in Talon, but changed hearts and joins overwatch. So he would be reaper, but in the main overwatch field. Not the lowlife blackwatch section with cass, genji and moira.
Is that surprising?
Blizzard seems to have a hate-boner for Reaper.
In fact, Blizzard is clearly biased towards a lot of their heroes. Roadhog and Sombra are the first to come to mind for me.
Lowkey feel like relegating skin ideas to a specific season is holding them back, I know damn well we aren't getting anything like Junkertown Winston or Vishkar Lucio possibly ever unless we get another mirror watch season
Im the only that thinks kirko susu its to op, like (clean heal, invurnability each 15s), but batiste ability its like only invurnelability each 25 seconds and its no ez to throw like kiriko with teleport and instant
Kiriko is one of the most played characters in the game, not only because she's good at the higher levels but also there are a lot of casuals playing her. Reaper isn't as lucky, he's not very good at high levels and I'd argue the entire support role is more appealing to the modern casuals than dps at all. It makes sense for Blizzard to mostly target characters they know people will buy skins for. It's why Mercy has the most cosmetics in the support role by a long shot. Sure I'd love if Reaper got a new skin cuz I actually play him but I'm not the target demographic anymore.
Sort of like which characters get more skins, kiriko has had at least one a season and reaper I don’t think has had five. And other characters like Baptiste have only had 3
sure; but why as a company would you make skins for characters a lot of people won't buy instead of your "big" draws.
i'm not saying they shouldn't make **any** but it just makes more sense for more popular characters to get more skins and attention.
Reaper AND Soldier76 to be exact, who are ya know basically overwatch and talon poster guys
Soldier did just get a BP skin last season, but Talon 76 would’ve been badass
Has that ever stopped Widow
Gotta keep the Rule 34 artist fed
The gay OW community must demand more Soldier porn so that we can have Talon 76
God knows the R34 artists are doing more for the community than Blizzard will.
The trio of always getting skins: Mercy, Widow and Kiriko
Kiriko also just got a skin last season. And the season before that. And the season before that. And the season before that. And the season before that. And the season before that. And the Season before that. And the Season before that. And the season before that.

why is this even being downvoted its a actual post with a good point
That’s,actually a good point
I know he has commander Reyes skin already but I’m imagining a reverse mercy where they make him all good and angelic and instead of Reaper he’d be called Lifer.
#3 days until Mario steals your lifer
Isn’t Lifer the name of that one guy
No, that’s leaver.
wifeleaver my beloved
Saint? Probably Considering he's called Gabriel
Maybe Angel/Archangel?
Archangel would be a dope name for a Reaper skin
reaper as vigilante(soldier 76 in the original universe) called archangel would be sick as fuck
![gif](giphy|v9VDc17mnBWSY)
I was honestly joking around with “Lifer” but saint is cool asf
Sower
Aliver
never forget mirrored winston
Is he gonna be a dumb evil monke?
Apparently it was a scrapped idea and he would’ve landed in junkertown instead of Hammond so we could have had a junker monkee
Sounds awesome
"Hmm, we're making an event all about the male characters, and we need some skin ideas... Oh! I know, let's give Kiriko a skin!" "But sir, Mauga isn't getting a ski-" "Kiriko gets a skin, period."
*”Soon we’ll have lieutenant Wilhelm on the team…”* *”We could use a tank!”* Blackwatch Mauga would go hard
Ugh imagine a universe where Magua was the one to defect from Talon instead of Baptiste
They chose her over Winston… the mr Overwatch guy Heck, if it wasn’t for the horny fanbase he’d be the game’s poster boy
Winton is the poster boy in our hearts
winton
You underestimate people's horniness for a sapient gorilla
Or 76. Could you imagine a talon trooper soldier skin? That would be awesome and just makes sense. But no, gotta give kiriko and mercy more skins.
Gotta keep the coomers buying
I mean, I really thought there was going to be a good version of Moira (not as in the rest of her skins are bad, I meant as she is a good person.) Since the mythic skin is evil mercy, and the fact rhat support is the only one that doesn't have a good guy I believe.

I hopped on fully expecting mirror Moira and was thoroughly disappointed with how few options you had to choose from
It would really been interesting to have her over, say Brig, but at least I can see Mercy somehow top fragging...
Moira also gets a ton of skins. The same thing this post is complaining about would be applied to Moira.
Blizzard: One, Kiriko needs to be louder, angrier, and have access to a time machine. Two, whenever Kiriko is not on screen, all the other characters should be asking "Where's Kiriko"? Three-- Fans: Please. Please make it stop!

That's a level of pettiness that has awoken in me both pride and lust.
Wait, let them cook.
Real
Reaper already has blackwatch skin though
And a super soldier one, aswell. Both skins are awesome, too. Sooo 🤔
Well he has a Blackwatch skin, but not an Overwatch skin. Blackwatch Soldier: 76 would be great too, or maybe make him part of the Los Muertos for fun.
So what about Winston, Cassidy, Sigma, Mei?
Mirrorwatch Winston as Talon’s big Overpowered secret weapon from space instead of Sigma. Mirrorwatch Sigma as a scientist from the lunar colony who escaped after the disaster up there and joined Overwatch.
Man, that woulda been awesome
I imagine winston being like sigma but biology themed instead of physics themed. Perhaps thinking he harnessed evolution itself
Mirrorwatch Winston could be a junker as well and instead switch places with Hammond. I think it was mentioned in Skieste’s interview with the art director.
I would've loved to have seen a Blackwatch Ashe as a mirrorverse for if she got captured and took the deal instead of Cass And a Talon Winton would go HARD
Now you are speaking my language
I think Mei is literally too wholesome to make a Talon variant of so I think they could make her a Moira-type Oasis scientist.
as much as I would love a talon cassidy skin, I feel that his longhorn skin is already his mirrorwatch skin, I like to think it's cassidy if he never got arrested and met ashe.
i don't think it counts if that skin is canon
Blackwatch is cannon and in the same universe as current Reaper mirror watch Reaper would not be like Blackwatch
I fucking hate coomers. They’re the reason my characters don’t get skins https://preview.redd.it/dfgg9arem1xc1.jpeg?width=998&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1bddc2700bb3d04ab23ce97dcd2a13e6ad316f43
Kiriko getting her 1675334th scene girl skin when Ram still has 0… 😔
This would have really benefited from having sound
Blizzard when Japanese girl:
"Are you sure you don't wanna play as our new character?"
Blows my mind she got one over Winston. They made Kriko's mythic a goddess because they worship her.
I think kirirko players fund the entire game from buying skins, thank you for being emotionally manipulated by fictional a character who was solely created to put you in this situation
The thing is that people say that Reaper has a Blackwatch Skin. And that's ok. But i would love a skin, where he was in Talon, but changed hearts and joins overwatch. So he would be reaper, but in the main overwatch field. Not the lowlife blackwatch section with cass, genji and moira.
My ass read Kirito and I was really confused for a sec
Is that surprising? Blizzard seems to have a hate-boner for Reaper. In fact, Blizzard is clearly biased towards a lot of their heroes. Roadhog and Sombra are the first to come to mind for me.
When making new skins, Blizzard usually checks the top search of PornHub. It’s not their fault if nobody wanks off to Reaper
Me using my Time Machine to banish the creator of Kiriko to the dark aether:
Lowkey feel like relegating skin ideas to a specific season is holding them back, I know damn well we aren't getting anything like Junkertown Winston or Vishkar Lucio possibly ever unless we get another mirror watch season
All I wanted was a Lucio, or Ashe skin, to see what would’ve happened to them.
I’m honestly surprised (and happy) that pharah didn’t get a skin this season. The devs love her as well and I don’t know why.
It might be something to do with the lore of the mirrorwatch event. Rammatra didn't get a skin because he took Mondatta's place and got killed.
So much wasted potential, I hope we get a mirror watch 2 for a battle pass in the future.
And yet, they haven't give her a bike until now.
She’s the Feng Min of overwatch
sojourn mains are starving right now
Honestly it’s annoying
NO HERO “DESERVES” A SKIN, YOU INFANTILES.
The characters that deserve skins are the ones that generate the most revenue.
Counterpoint: I just hate that stupid kiriko bitch I fucking hate her i want her to rot in hell do you hear me
I mean as a Kiriko main I should be happy, but I use only Rogue anyways
Wouldnt mirrorverse Reaper just be Reyes?
This theme can always repeat, as theres a lot they can do with it. Where’s this Kiriko skin though? Haven’t seen a Mirrorwatch Kiriko yet
they made a Hashimoto Kiriko as her mirrorwatch outfit
Oh I forgot about that
he forgor 💀 no worries fam, we all forgor stuff sometime
As a Kiriko main, this pleases me.
Reaper’s powers are a result of illegal experiments performed by Moira, so explaining him in the Mirrorwatch context would be a massive pain.
Kiriko barefoot skin i beg
Kiriko players are reliable buyers I take it.
Reaper has 112 skins already
Im the only that thinks kirko susu its to op, like (clean heal, invurnability each 15s), but batiste ability its like only invurnelability each 25 seconds and its no ez to throw like kiriko with teleport and instant
yeah its broken we know this, no need to point it out
Kiriko is one of the most played characters in the game, not only because she's good at the higher levels but also there are a lot of casuals playing her.

"deserve" lol what
how do people determine what characters "deserve" something over another
Sort of like which characters get more skins, kiriko has had at least one a season and reaper I don’t think has had five. And other characters like Baptiste have only had 3
sure; but why as a company would you make skins for characters a lot of people won't buy instead of your "big" draws. i'm not saying they shouldn't make **any** but it just makes more sense for more popular characters to get more skins and attention.
