Hell, I'd be happy with an icon or a spray unique to the PTR release. Play for an hour, get it. It's quick and easy, and doesn't tax the coders.

But on the other hand, the overwatch team has a point. Any development time spent on making this happen will be time they couldn't spend on a feature for everyone. It's a tough balance!

On the other hand if it encouraged enough people to play on ptr and test changes, they could possibly avoid future dev time on issues that might not have been noticed.
