I tried to make the anniversary event more enjoyable and unique.

First off, I want to say that this was really hard for me to do. Because on the one hand, I realize that the original event is just awful. On the other hand, I feel like I added too many rewards.

But man, this is the 10th anniversary of a game that reinvented the hero shooter genre. If it were the 8th, or maybe the 6th, or who knows, maybe the 7th anniversary, I wouldn’t have focused so much on the rewards. But come on. 10 years—a round and significant milestone for everyone connected to this game in any way.

💀1. The elephant in the room: recolors.

Make them challenge rewards. Just play 10 matches in Classic Overwatch on the hero you want a skin for.

Blizzard gives out 3 epic skins per loot box, but they’re literally useless. I don’t think even 50% of players play more than 5 heroes from the original roster.

Also, I can’t believe I’m writing this, but make all skins with an effect like Tracer’s. You know, where the light part glows.

👌2. 10 Legendary Loot Boxes.

You get the idea. 10 years, 10 loot boxes. You don’t have to give them all at once—10 for challenges.

1 could be given out in Twitch Drops. 4 for personal challenges, and 5 for completing community challenges.

(You could disable the default challenges for 3 loot boxes. That would be more than fair. Besides, they’ve done this before, more than once.)

👍3. Anniversary loot boxes contain items from previous Battle Passes. (up to Season 21)

This was a given. 20 loot boxes with 1 guaranteed legendary skin. Considering that Blizzard is already selling recolored Battle Pass skins, and Chinese players have been able to purchase Battle Pass skins.

🦍4. Animated sprays for 10 wins in Competitive mode.

Animated sprays are extremely rare as of 2026. And I just can’t bring myself to make them available in Quick Play and so on. Again, no one is forcing you to do them. Playing as Kiriko and want an animated spray for Kiriko? Getting 10 wins over the 21 days of the event won’t be a problem for you.

👋5. A unique, universal anniversary emote.

That would be an amazing reward. I don’t know—let the heroes count their fingers and hold up a ten. Let them clap in honor of the decade like in that damn Evangelion. Whatever it takes, but a universal emote like that has to exist.

👀6. 20 Mythic Prisms, just like in the fall of 2025.

📿7. Little things like titles, badges, and other trinkets can either be given out as Twitch Drops or simply added as bonuses for completed challenges with.

🚽8. Remove challenges that grant Battle Pass xp

Lucio was killed and his body was thrown into a pit.

Yeah. Lucio has basically been a slave to the Beat for the last six months or so. The faster you charge the Beat, the faster you can use it, and so on.

Yeah, that was a problem. And because of that, he got at least three nerfs. But now that the Beat has finally been nerfed, can we at least undo one of those nerfs? The answer is No.

By the way, Mercy is listed right next to him in the patch notes, and she wasn’t just compensated for her nerfs with a new ability at first.

They literally reverted her “nerf” a month later, added a massive new perk, kept her new ability, and kept the perk for the new ability. Speechless.

Now Lucio is exactly what 80% of the community would describe him as.

A useless clown on skates.

For anyone still denying Sierra does too much damage:

The original post by u/Paladin-Leeroy was deleted by the moderators/automod.

I knew that would happen, so I just saved the video.

Yeah, it might be a bit boring. But no one's ever concept a mythic weapon before. And it's really hard to come up with something 100% suitable for Weaver. Sorry, but just adding a rodent to a gauntlet or something like that is the path of least resistance. +For me, that would be just awful. Because all these mythic weapons for Orisa, Juno, and Mercy are just depressing with their, I don't know, pointless cuteness.

I also can't draw, so I based it on the glove from the Cleric skin concept. I couldn't decide on a color, so I made three basic ones and one more gray/neutral one.

Level 1 (Mythic Prism 50): Unlocks the base weapon skin, without unique effects or sounds. It's a glove covered in vines with hard-light flowers growing from them. At level 1, the buds are just pale.

Level 2 (Mythic Prism 10): Unlocks "Reactivity" - Earning eliminations enhances the weapons' visual effects and sounds, and each flower on the glove begins to fill with light and glow brightly.

Level 3 (Mythic Prism 10): Unlocks weapon flourish animation - Lifeweaver begins charging different types of hard-light flowers (rosebud, peony bud, lily bud, and dahlia bud).

The animation looks similar to charging a flower for healing, but the vines on your hand begin to move slowly. After charging a flower, the bud rises upward, and falls to the ground, remaining there before disappearing. Each flower has its own color and chance of appearing.

Level 4 (Mythic Prism 10): Unlocks unique kill/assist effects — final blows or assists cause a pair of garden shears to appear, which snap shut, followed by a shower of shrub leaves falling from the sky.(It’s somewhat similar to Ana’s weapon kill effect)

Also, all four new flowers will appear when you select a hero, instead of the default rose. Yeah, you won’t be able to see this with the Druid’s Mythic Skin. But I don’t think it’s a big loss. Considering that some heroes have this too. Like Ashe, who, instead of loading a new mythic bullet into her rifle, just catches her weapon from the sky.
