What's up everybody this is Master Ian Gamer and as we move ever closer to the 2018 summer
Overwatch event, now is the perfect time to start getting hyped for all the new content
it could have in store for us.
While I already talked about its start date and the possibility of the event getting massively
reworked in a previous video of mine, today I want to focus exclusively on what kinds
of cool new skins we could be seeing this year!
There have been countless ideas floating around the Overwatch community, so here I'm going
to be sharing some of my favorites that I would love to see make it into the game!
And without further ado, let's dive right in!
So looking at the past two years of Summer Games skins, most of them have fit into one
of two aesthetic themes, being Sports and Beach.
So to start, let's take a look at some possible Sports skins we could be getting.
First up, is Boxer Doomfist.
Given that Doomfist is canonically versed in many hand to hand fighting styles, it would
make sense for him to have at least some skill as a boxer.
The only problem I really see with this skin idea is Doomfist's asymetric design where
he has the massive gauntlet on only one arm, while most boxers wear gloves on both.
However, I trust that Blizzard can find a creative way to work around this while maintaining
the boxer appearance.
Next up we have Fencer Genji.
Not only do we already see Genji fencing in his Summer Games spray, but the outfit would
fit well with his character design given that fencers wear full body suits with large masks.
It would be a nice variant from the many ninja-esque skins that he already has, and additionally
the design of a fencing sword would look visually unique from any of his other weapon skins
currently.
Moving on to Winston, a lot of people have speculated that he could get some kind of
volleyball jersey given that his Summer Games spray is volleyball.
While this isn't a bad idea, I think it would be cool if he got a skin that better
emphasized his primate side, which is why I'd like to see him as a mountain climber!
While gorilla's are in fact largely ground dwelling creatures, we know from the Horizon
Lunar Colony that they must have had at least some experience with rock climbing, so with
the right gear equipped I'm sure Winston could take on any rock face he encounters.
The skin itself might involve a helmet and an overabundance of rope and carabiners hanging
off him.
His gun could maybe be fashioned into some kind of large rock climbing pick, although
that could be a bit of a stretch.
Overall, I think it'd be a fun idea, and is one that I haven't really seen any people
suggest yet!
Taking a look now at one of the more popular skin ideas overall recently, we have a sports
ball skin for Wrecking Ball.
Now I already mentioned this idea in my previous Hammond skins prediction video, but it's
certainly worth mentioning here since the Summer Games would be the perfect time for
him to get one.
As for the actual design of the skin, it could be made to look like a soccer ball, beach
ball, volley ball, really just about anything.
Additionally, Hammond himself could get either some kind of sports jersey to make him look
like a player, or even a referee shirt given that he would in fact be the ball.
Regardless, it's a super popular idea that many would love to see in game.
Lastly before I wrap up the Sports themed skin ideas, we have nationality specific Epic
skins.
Now the only reason I'm even mentioning these is because we had the leaked Sombra
Mexico skin.
If you aren't familiar with this leak than you can check out the video I made covering
it, but in short it looks like we may be getting more Epic skins colored to match certain heroes'
nations of origin, just like what we saw back in 2016.
This could be applied to most of the game's current playable heroes, so there's quite
a few possible candidates.
Anyways, moving on now to the possible Beach theme skins, this is where we get a TON of
great possibilities!
The first of which is Lifeguard Mercy.
In my opinion, this skin is pretty much inevitable.
If we don't get it this year, it'll come next year.
If not next year, then the year after that.
It just works so well for her character, and I'm sure lots of players would love to see
her in a swimsuit.
I'm not sure exactly what they would do for her wings.
Possibly they would just be made out of water or mist.
But for her caduceus staff they could give her either some kind of pool skimmer or lifeguard
pole that you would use to save someone from drowning.
All around, a really cool skin idea, and it would go really well with Lifeguard McCree
if you have both on the same team!
Continuing with the aquatic theme, we have Diver D.Va, complete with a Shark or Orca
mech.
It's been over a year since D.Va got a new event skin, and likewise this skin idea and
artwork has been around almost as long as Overwatch itself at this point, and it still
stands as one of the best looking summer skin ideas in my opinion.
However, instead of getting an aquatic animal themed mech, it could also be designed to
look like a submarine.
The default mech as is already strongly resembles some kind of submersible vehicle, so I could
just as easily and may even prefer seeing Blizzard go with something like this for her.
Additionally, instead of giving pilot D.Va a wetsuit and snorkel, she might get some
kind of sailor outfit, which if nothing else would be a bit more visually unique and interesting
when compared to her standard jumpsuit.
Moving onto a different hero but still sticking with the submersible theme, we might also
get a skin like this for the other mech based hero in Overwatch, being Wrecking Ball.
Given that many submarines feature a largely spherical design, I could see Blizzard modeling
the mech in this way, and once again giving Hammond himself either a diver or sailor outfit
to match.
Similarly, Blizzard might go with a more vintage design and turn Wrecking Ball into a heavy
metal diving bell.
It could fit better with the "dense wrecking ball" aspect of the hero, and might even
be adorned with seaweed and other deep sea flora and fauna to give it an aged, rustic
look.
And speaking of vintage deep sea divers, there are other heroes who could easily get this
kind of skin, too.
For example there's a really good artist's rendition of Diver Roadhog, where he has a
diving helmet mask, harpoon hook, and puffer fish gas canisters.
Roadhog may already have quite a few aquatic and island based skins, but this one would
still fit him well.
Pharah also could even get a skin like this.
It may be a bit of a stretch, but I could see the diving suit being her armor, oxygen
tanks for her jetpack, and a torpedo launcher instead of rockets.
The idea of a flying diver might be a little weird, but hey, we've had stranger.
The other major candidate I could see getting a deep sea diver skin would be Reinhardt.
Like Pharah, the suit and helmet would easily fit his armored design, and he could wield
a massive anchor as a hammer.
Maybe even some kind of propellers would be used instead of rockets on his hammer and
when charging?
All around another great idea, especially since Reinhardt, like D.Va, has been getting
the short end of the cosmetics stick for quite a while now.
But thankfully, there are a number of other summer skin ideas we might see for him as
well.
One of these other ideas would be just a typical poolside or beach outfit.
The bulkiness of his armor could be made up of some kind of pool floaties and his hammer
could be an inflatable toy.
However, hands down my favorite summer skin idea for Reinhardt is the Greek god Poseidon.
Rein's armor could easily be made up of shells and other kinds of ocean decoration,
his shield could be some kind of water barrier, and his charge ability some kind of waterjet
propulsion.
But, most importantly of all, his hammer would be a trident.
Overall this idea just feels so fitting for Reinhardt, that I might have to peg it as
my number one most wanted skin for the upcoming Summer Games event.
Please Blizzard, you NEED to make this happen.
But, moving on from Reinhardt while still sticking with the aquatic theme, we have sunken
Bastion.
Mainly taking inspiration from his appearance at the beginning of the Binary comic, this
is a look that me and many others have loved since the comic's release.
Now, if Blizzard were to make it a true Legendary skin, they'd probably have to do more than
just plaster a few starfish and octopuses on him, which is why I think they should redesign
Bastion's body to resemble something like either a deep sea probe or sunken ship.
If the latter, they could give him some kind of rotted wood texture, kind of like two of
his default Legendary skins, to make the skin feel more unique.
And that wraps up my Beach themed skin ideas, but I'm not done quite yet.
While Sports and Beach have been the themes used in previous years, who's to say we
won't get a completely new theme for some of the cosmetics this year?
Summer Games after all has some of the greatest potential for theme diversity out of any of
the Overwatch events, so what are some other summertime activities we could see represented?
What about camping?
I could see heroes like McCree or Soldier: 76 getting some kind of boy scout or wilderness
explorer skins.
Overall, there's quite a bit of potential when it comes to summer skins, so I'm fully
expecting Blizzard to throw us at least a few curveballs that nobody would see coming!
But, now that I've shared my favorite new skin ideas, I want all of you guys to share
yours!
