Skin Crossovers in Overwatch? A fan is turning the heroes into characters from StarCraft, WoW, and Diablo.
The artist wildcard24 (Link to the DeviantArt account) has created three different sets of characters and skins for Overwatch. According to his vision, the heroes of Overwatch could soon don robes from Diablo, World of Warcraft, and StarCraft.
In the “Warcraft” team, alongside Goblin Engineer Junkrat, are the Pandaren Frostmein and the impressive Fire Lord Ragnaros, who would surely storm across the battlefield with a loud “TOO EARLY!”
In the Diablo version, Roadhog stands out as Butcher and Mercy as Angel Auriel, but Reaper manages to be even more of an Edgelord as Malthael than he already is.
Fans of StarCraft get D.Va with the look of a mighty Thor and Soldier: 76 in the typical garb of a Space Marine. That Widowmaker would perfectly pass as a Ghost should be obvious.
A crossover like this with skins is conceivable for several reasons. Firstly, such a “mishmash” already exists in Heroes of the Storm, where characters are often given a completely foreign design (like X as Y or A as B). The second reason is that “Blizzard” actually exists in the world of Overwatch, so it is quite possible that there are still people with memories of iconic figures from the Warcraft universe.
The secret winner, by the way, is Genji – as Leeroy Jenkins. Because who else would “just run in”?

So it seems to be only a matter of time before you can actually squeeze into such outfits. It would be amusing if there were soon an ingame event for BlizzCon 2017…
D.Va is also making headlines – everyone wants to look under her skirt.
