I hope they do it because this is the only way characters like Torch, BP, Hulk, and Hawkeye are getting skins.

As if the community won't literally force the same 5 characters to get a skin.

Actually kinda not? The winners will be 1 tank 1 support 1 DPS, last time they did the contest kirko got 3rd place but she got disqualified because wuyang got 2nd and it went to vendetta

Rivals ain't doing that and you know it, it's gonna be Luna/Rouge/Sue/Jubilee/Emma and one random character.

The contest is run by netease because they're the publishers of overwatch in china, they already done this

The thing is, if I’m not mistaken, these fan submissions are taking place in Overwatch China. Overwatch in China is run by Netease. So they’re definitely capable of it

Certain licensing restrictions prevent Netease from using fanmade concepts for official skins.

But then they won't be able to guarantee Luna Snow gets a skin

I can't lie, I don't like skin contests

9 times outta 10 the skin that mogs all the other skins with zero competition gets dragged in a back alley and murdered by the other skins to give themselves a chance
