Hehehe got Winston and Zen's legendaries from this batch, the only skins I wanted really.

This arcade duel should have a way to concede defeat without just leaving. 5 rounds is a bit of a waste of time if one person is clearly dominant.

i clicked through the christmas message by mistake. anyone have a screen cap? won't come back up

 

[Plesiades]

Nothing amazing in the loot boxes. Nice gesture from Blizzard though!

I got Anubis Pharah... maybe it's time to get that Golden Rocket Launcher.

I was thinking if they can remix 1 vs 1 by adding another mode
Something fun like each Hero has an Obstacle course
Both players by to beat each other to the finish line, but shenanigans along the way

Like Tracer vs Tracer, Zip across platforms, identical on each side, like a mirror map, but faster Tracer gets to pull a switch to make it difficult for the other one
Some goofy stuff can be thought up


Winston jump off, land closest to target
Reaper, how many Die! Die! Die! Death Blossoms created by killing bots
etc.

 

[Gurrry]

Ive gotten the Stana Torb skin 3 times so far.

 

[Cheat Code]

Five lootboxes is a great little bonus. Managed to get Shiver Reaper on PC and Nutcracker Zenyatta on PS4.

 

[cyborg009]

How much did that cost you?

0

 

[TangoAlphaLima]

Only great thing I got was the Rudolph skin for Roadhog. Really wanted that Winston Yeti...

 

[KiraFA37]

I haven't gotten any legendary skins yet, I did get the legendary Zarya emote, just sucks you have to cycle it before you get the infinite present one.

 

[cyborg009]

Sorry about how shit our games were blues. Looks like a diamond player was throwing because he fell into gold rank. there is only so much you can do. You would probably be better off playing with a full team of 6 at this point.

I know. It's just that I'm having the worst luck with getting a team together, and Whippy is only on when it's 4-6 AM, so I can't always play with him.

I'm hoping finalflame & StacticJam will log on, but so far, neither have accepted my friend request.

 

[Strangelove77]

Holy shit free loot boxes.

Got the peppermint skin for Sombra. Everything else is whatever. Still looking for the Pharah skin.

 

[caesar]

5 free boxes and you guys are still salty.

[Prelude.]

I got the awful bedouin gengu and that's it.

 

[blue_phazon]

After 15 hours I finally got to level 25.

LETS TRY COMPETITIVE!

...4 people left. Um. Okay.

Really? Wow and i thought that i am having the worst luck for this event.
I really believe they did something here and lowered the chances.

 

[xaosslug]

Ive gotten the Stana Torb skin 3 times so far.

6 times, here (twice in the 5 free boxes, today!). -__- And I also got it in the free box when the event started.

I got 3 legendaries and 5 epics. Posh Tracer is the new epic skin that I haven't acquired yet, and it looks very nice. I got Mercy's Sigrún skin, and as someone who loves Norse Mythology, it's bloody beautiful. Pharah's Frostbite skin is the last of the Winter Wonderland skins that I needed, and it's pretty cool.

The others are duplicates.

 

[IceMarker]

I got Blackbeard for Torb out of mine, perfect Blizzard thank you!

 

[caesar]

I got the awful bedouin gengu and that's it.

That's a good one. >_>

 

[AngryMoth]

Some guy just tried running attack bastion on hanamura from round 3 when he had been playing Reinhardt during the first 2 rounds and we'd dominated. Just why

 

[Prelude.]

That's a good one. >_>

Not when I have Oni Slayer Master Gengu.

 

[Nuno Pinto]

Logged in just to see the 5 boxes. Only got 2 purples, none christmas related...

Only blues/whites, ornaments and player icons. Christmas ruined!

 

[Anne]

hot take: Oni Genji looks cheap and pretty lame and I'd rather use a recolor

 

[Dice]

I got Mercy's Sigrún skin, and as someone who loves Norse Mythology, it's bloody beautiful.

Ooo, that's one of the four I want.

 

[Papercuts]

Welp. Got Mariachi reaper in my boxes, only event stuff were sprays and voice lines.

 

[MarioHead3]

But what about Mei?

Mercy is my second wife.

 

[LAM09]

Just got Winston's skin, so only really after Zen's now.

 

[Psychoward]

Five free loot boxes yee

 

[Salarians]

I'm a pro Overwatcher

 

[ZangBa]

I got Nutyatta and Mei's legendary from my free boxes, plus 500 coins and some epic dupes. Best $0 I ever spent.

 

[Psychoward]

Got Frosted Zarya and Santa Torb along with some credits. Don't really care for Santa Torb too much to be honest but I was gonna buy Frosted Zarya so that's nice.

I've got enough spare credits to buy 2 more epics before the event is over.

 

[cHinzo]

Yes, the skin I wanted from the last free lootbox!

hot take: Oni Genji looks cheap and pretty lame and I'd rather use a recolor

Dude, have u seen that skin with the golden weapons? That shit looks hot!

 

[Prelude.]

I could do without the power rangers belt but it's fine.

 

[KiraFA37]

Well not legendary christmas skins, I got some legendary non-event skins. I do have the christmas Sombra, Roadhog, Lucio and Pharah skins. I just really want elf Tracer and yeti Winston though.

 

[Sullichin]

Oh man, wonder if i have to log in today/ tomorrow to get the free loot boxes..

 

[xaosslug]

hot take: Oni Genji looks cheap and pretty lame and I'd rather use a recolor

look, I didn't want to play HotS either, but just suck it up and do it! You've got a few weeks left, I think!? ;P

 

[Psychoward]

The secret best holiday exclusive combo is Pumpkin Reaper with "where's your holiday spirit?" Voice line

 

[Vipu]

Does this game finally have mouse sensitivity setting with decimal?

 

[ExMachina]

Does this game finally have mouse sensitivity setting with decimal?

Yes, they added it many patches ago. You can just type in the desired number to set your sens.

 

[Blues1990]

I tried flying solo again, but my PING went from 40 to 1200, and not only was I booted from the game, but I was also suspended.

I think I'm done with competitive, as it has NOT been my time this season.

 

[Data West]

You use vigilante, what do you know of quality?

 

[Papercuts]

Yeti Winston + "this is NOT a costume".

 

[Psychoward]

Yeti Winston + "this is NOT a costume".

I use that with his explorer skin lol

 

[Jellie]

At the end of the event if I don't have Elf Tracer or Nuttyata what should I buy? I got Zens Ra skin already but prefer his Christmas to Tracers one and was eyeing up the T-Racer one.

 

[Salarians]

I really don't like the term "Nutyatta"

 

[Psychoward]

They're both great

With Zen you can kill people with nuts, with tracer you get exclusive voice lines.

I personally think that Tracer has better skins compared to that Elf skin. I like it but it's not that special to me. I am actually not a fan of any Legendary skin for this event except for that Zenyatta skin. And Winston is nice too but i never use him.

I would say get Zenyatta. Mostly because it's "everyday" skin. Tracer skin is too much "Holidays".
