Okay people, I want to wrap up this post fast so I can focus all of my attention on this Overwatch League match between Dallas and Shanghai. (Go Dragons!)
So let's jump straight to today's news.
Hey! Overwatch League is back!
- Anna gives us a rundown of what happened during the break and a look at the stage to come.
- Spoiler alert: the Shanghai Dragons are definitely going to bring home a win tonight. (I hope.)
Not only does the pink Mercy skin look great in game...
- It also looks great in cosplay. And fan art. Basically fans are all in on this new skin.
A look behind the scenes of the Rialto map
- How does an Overwatch map get made? Here's how.
- And didn't we just see something like this? We did. One of the designers gave us a look at Gibraltar in development last week.
Dang, now I have to level my Hunter
- Hunters will be able to tame unicorns in Battle for Azeroth. Unicorns that will attack on command and murder your foes, which are definitely the best kind of unicorns. Thanks, Muffinus, because I definitely appreciate this. (Even though it means I still have a new character to level.)
Kul Tiran Druids continue to be completely terrifying
- Their Aquatic Form continues the theme of being a creepy constructs of bone and wood and, dang, am I going to have to level another new character? (And then another, because Zandalari Druids are pretty cool, too?)
Yes, you will be able to fly in Battle for Azeroth
- Eventually. So far, the system looks a lot like what Blizzard used for flying in Legion.
The Heroes of the Storm team hit Reddit with an AMA today
- The devs have been trying to overcome accusations they've been ignoring the playerbase, and it's involved a lot of activity on Reddit. Today there was an AMA that covered a lot of grounds, and you'll want to check out the highlights.
Okay, Shanghai is playing, so this is Liz saying goodnight.
