News & Discussion Meka Mania Name Cards (and Main Menu backgrounds) if the others had won

Upvotes

While not unused, these four Name Cards are currently unobtainable, but can be seen on the Customization tab from your Career Profile. I don't know if they will be made available at some capacity, considering all five of them (including D.Va's) just have an extra border on them.

Likewise, these 4 main menu backgrounds are actually unused, but would have appeared on the Main Menu if either one of them had won instead.

News & Discussion Jetpack Cat seems to make people rage/tilt in a way that can change the tempo of a match mid-game

Post image
1.8k Upvotes

Title is a bit awkward but I’ll illustrate what I mean:

I’ve been trying out JPC lately and every few games there’s a scenario that plays out like this. The game is running smoothly, both teams playing normally, but then I get some sort of cheeky kill, usually by chasing down a low health enemy, and said enemy’s mindset completely changes. Usually after a “Possible Bad Message”, they’ve now stopped playing with their team and are just chasing me around the map, sometimes switching characters to more mobile ones that are better suited to matching Fika’s speed. They’ll run out of of fights to pursue me to the point of solo pushing into our team’s spawn, a lot of the times even wasting ults to try and solo kill me. And if they succeed, it’s usually immediately followed by the most spiteful teabags ever witnessed by mankind.

A few games like this were games were my team was facing a very probable loss only to turn it around because one of the enemies changing their win condition to “fulfill the objective” to “wipe Fika off the face of the earth” made it a lot easier to win teamfights and turn the game around. And I doubt this is a phenomenon exclusive to mid players like me playing her - it’s undoubtedly happening in other matches and I just don’t realize because it’s not my POV as the cat.

Even in games where no one ends up throwing like this, I still see a lot of vitriol directed towards JPC when I play her. I know toxicity is inevitable (I’ve been playing long enough to where I remember being there for the patch where “gg ez” was changed to filter to something silly instead) but it’s so, so out of the usual. I’ve seen people who will run out of cover to teabag me after killing me from a distance knowing it’ll just get them killed by my team. I’ve seen people start placing down sprays and hitting emotes after killing me like it’s Team Fortress 2, which I’ve barely ever seen before in this game! I don’t see this on any other character, even my main Kiriko who tends to be rage-inducing with her suzu saves and cheap dagger kills.

I’ve really made this post to highlight 2 things.

  1. My question: How in the world can Blizzard alter JPC to where she doesn’t induce this level of anger in people to where games are thrown?
  2. Tilt and rage absolutely will affect your gameplay and just make you angrier and feel worse if you lose as a result of it, so don’t destroy your mental health over having to play against a frustrating character (as even if Fika gets nerfed significantly, there absolutely WILL be a similar menace in the future)

Kinda how like Deadlock does it where a character would have different reaction when they mark a character they know it would be a cool character interaction

For example: Ashe would have an aggressive tone when she marks Cassidy

Fan Content Emre Skin Idea - Landsknecht

Thumbnail
gallery
119 Upvotes

I'm absolutely aware that Emre is Turkish and the Landsknecht came from Germany. But national identity authenticity hasn't stopped over skins.

Reasons why Landsknecht Emre works:

Superweapon Chest thing can become a plate chest.
Emre's cake lends itself well to Landsknecht "Booty Shorts" style.
His weapon can be imagined to be an Arquebus.
Landsknecht did have access to smaller firearms, thus his Pistol ability still thematically makes sense.
Skins often ignore hero hair styles, so I can't see how an appropriately scaled floppy hat can be that silhouette breaking.
Some landsknecht enjoyed having figure hugging garment, so easy to preserve the silhouette. If the anatomy would be too weirdly bulky? Throw some plate metal on there! Make it more fantastical if necessary. The concept art itself is using minimalism so design elements can be added.
Emre's base design is unintentionally/intentionally objectifying anyway. Landsknecht is a way to continue that in a tasteful way and also in a way where you can imagine the character chooses it.
Cod piece can be any scale and can not be included if that's a tonal need. The exposed leg can be covered too if that thigh is "too much".
Colour pallet can be anything, really. I just chose a pallet built from his base skin so it feels recognisably Emre.

We have a range of "Medieval Fantasy" coded skins. So I can see this fitting alongside that. Add some Blizzard stylisation to it.

Humor I feel crazy isn't it obvious that it's D.mon? I'm seeing a lot of confusion about this art piece

Post image
660 Upvotes

Jokes aside. I feel that D.mon has a design problem, even tho her face is kinda unique compared to the other girls (and I'm being very generous saying that), her current face design is still way safer than her OG design with the black sharper eyes/brows and angry boss expression. Plus she doesn't really have any "unique element/silhouette" that is maintained between skins, even Juno-the-cosplayer has something that is conserved (her big boots and backpack).

That's why it was kinda hard to guess who was the green haired girl from the new collab, maybe if they kept her asymmetrical hair+headset it would be easy to recognize her (?

PD: Btw I love green hair + red glasses, reminds me of my favorite Vocaloid, Gumi

I can't think of any other girlie with similar features. I guess they could've put the mech in the background to help with that.
