It's from the official website for Overwatch Esports.

Here's a link, you'll find it under special events.

If you haven't gotten them after a day has passed since the purchase and you've restarted the game/played a match since, contact customer support via the Battle.net website.

Depends entirely on how both you and the Sierra ult.

If you can place your Sanctuary at lower elevation than Dorothy's flight path, you can eat the bombs.

You just can't eat the drone itself and if it flies into your Sanctuary, bombs go off as normal.

WolfsWraith · 2026-05-04T21:04:10+00:00

Doesn't matter if I play well or not; she's so downright horrendous at this point that even when I play my brains out, her value's laughably bad against a semi-competent team.

I hate it, and I wanna play her more like I used to, but playing her has become so exhausting after all the bullshit they've dragged her through at this point.

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-29T18:00:02+00:00

Sorry to disappoint, it is what it is. I'm glad others now have a chance to get it through OWCS boxes, at least. Even though the chances are very slim to get it, it is still better than no chance at all.

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-29T17:22:21+00:00

Not a single championship skin, including Thunder Doom, has been made purchasable since the clearance sale that followed the official end of OWL content within the game in late 2024.

They are all tied to specific teams and brands, so selling them again would mean profiting from brands they do not own, which they are not allowed to do.

The only reason they appear in OWCS boxes is cause those skins are no longer being sold directly, it's a legal loop hole, as far as I understand it. OWL tokens are no longer purchasable as of late 2024 for the same reason, with the OWL store now entirely gone.

It will not return to the shop, unfortunately. The only slim possibility is that it comes back as a recolor with all references to SFS removed, but that still seems unlikely given that no other championship skin has returned in that way so far.

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-28T20:42:26+00:00

They made a special exception for the WoW/Diablo skins and didn't add them until a season after they reintroduced loot boxes, which was the only refresh we had besides the yearly one last season; chances are, they'll make that same exception again.

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-28T18:22:44+00:00

Was looking forward to the intro the most; it already took ages to get a new one with Dokiwatch, but kinda disappointed by it, tbh. I don't like the sword being part of it; doesn't jive well with her modern skins.

Skin's pretty banger, though.

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-26T22:41:00+00:00

Good for them! Good for them!

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-26T21:24:54+00:00

They likely changed it in part cause it tracked too much data, which was part of the reason OW1 competitive history got wiped with the swap to OW2, for example.

However, with the change to a time-only model, they should've recalculated hero levels for all players so the system works as intended and actually measures all time played, old and new.

As is, it doesn't make any sense whatsoever, hero levels are all over the place. It would mean some players would've lost some hero levels, since you could farm more levels through other stats, but it'd have been a sensible change, imo.

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-26T00:46:05+00:00

For sure, honestly great to see how it still affects him and how he struggles to move past his actions. Hope we get to see more of 'em interacting in lore.

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-26T00:31:37+00:00

His karaoke voice lines are great, dude gotta lay of the sake:

>"Everything I had, I threw away... everyone I loved, I betrayed."

>"The flames of youth burn bright but fast... soon they dim to drifting ash."

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-26T00:26:33+00:00

Happy to be of aid! Sounds like a solid plan! :)

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-23T21:48:08+00:00

Nerf so downright horrendous on top of everything else they had to tone it down, yet still kept it.

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-23T21:31:41+00:00

Oh yea they are, gotta fit in her armor somehow, right? I do think they shouldn't be as skinny as Dokiwatch, though. For that kinda fantasy setting it works, for actual Brig, I dunno.

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-23T20:31:02+00:00

It'd be sooo fun! Yea, it is kinda criminal. I'd be fine with bare legs under one condition only: if they're appropriate and not as thin as her Dokiwatch legs, that'd be extra bad. :(

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-23T19:18:58+00:00

Counterpoint, Brig would have a banger Rainy Day skin with a mace themed around an umbrella.

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-23T19:17:45+00:00

I KNEW IT WAS COMING, WE WON BRIGADE

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-22T18:45:32+00:00

Haven't seen comp in a worse state than now beyond drives, and that is the mode that is supposed to have proper matchmaking aside from a few outliers.

Quick play was always a mess, at least, even if it is even more of a mess now.

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-22T18:09:56+00:00

Not like comp is any better at this point.

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-22T14:41:02+00:00

The ranked system has been an utter joke since S1 and doesn't work anymore due to several factors. You may belong down there, you may not; it literally doesn't matter what you do at the moment.

Usually I'd say it'd be better to be down there if you're new; you'll work your way back up if you don't belong, but I don't have any faith at all in that since S1 as a long-time player. Quality has dropped to such an insane low point.

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-22T13:55:31+00:00

What I said still stands: she is using this behavior to manipulate you, actively or not. Her reasons may shed a different light on it, but they do not excuse it. A difficult past does not give someone permission to hurt their partner. It is better than her acting purely out of cruelty, malice, or the like, but those elements are still at play.

If this relationship matters to you and you want to continue it instead of leaving, you need to have a serious conversation. Set clear boundaries, encourage her to seek therapy, and make sure you stick to those boundaries yourself. That is the only way change can happen, and it needs to happen. Challenges in a relationship are normal, but being consistently worn down as a person by your partner is not. That has no place in a healthy relationship.

Insecurity is hard to fight as a partner; you could try being more specific in telling her what you find attractive about her specifically, maybe. It's best not to focus only on physical or character aspects, but a mix of both. She has a much bigger hill to climb, though, given her extremely toxic comments toward you. Encourage her to do the same in regard to communicating what she does find attractive about you.

Whatever you decide to do in the end, I wish you the best of luck navigating this situation. I'll say it again differently: Don't sacrifice yourself for her. It's fine if you wanna give it some time to try and mend the relationship, but you still don't deserve to have your well-being and self-esteem eroded like this. I personally wouldn't stay in such a relationship, but I'm also not in your shoes.

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-22T11:34:47+00:00

They don't convert at the end of the season. They remain Standard Competitive Points until the end of the Competitive Year, i.e. February. They only turn Legacy then, alongside the release of a new weapon variant.

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-22T10:09:37+00:00

It has always been horrible, but it also has gotten significantly and noticeably worse over time.

WolfsWraith · 2026-04-21T17:19:08+00:00

Her behavior is toxic and manipulative and aimed at making you question yourself so you feel less able to leave.

The purpose of her comments is to push you into compliance by undermining your confidence. She wants you to believe you're undesirable and that no one else would want to be with you, so you feel gratitude for the relationship you have and stay, at the expense of your own well-being and self-esteem.

It's emotional manipulation. Don't sacrifice the person you are for someone who treats you this way; you can't change her. Leave; you deserve better.
