I hope you see this, Blizzard, since this post is not just for myself but the thousands of people that agree on this. The Le Serrafim collaboration skins are so amazingly designed, not a single (currently) available skin compares to how good they look. Overwatch has many newer players or returners that hate to have missed out on these skins and are unable to do anything about it, me being one of them. I truly think it would be unfair if they didnt return ever again. Of course, such rare skins arent supposed to lose their rarity, so i think its a great idea to bring them back to the shop once a year, perhaps even less often, as long as they do return. Almost every player that has missed out on these skins is willing to put in a lot of money and so am i. Its just physically painful to think i’ll never get the prettiest skin for the character i use most often, for other players too. We hope you’ll consider bringing these skins back
They’ll only return if blizzard ever makes another coolaboration contract with le serafim agents.
There is no guarantee it’ll happen.
It’s the same with all other collaboration skins like bebop, one punch man and lego.
There would need to be a whole new contract drawn up and agreed upon by several different agents/lawyers and bosses.
That would mean the rarity goes up heavily. I’m a strong believer in keep vaulted skins vaulted. Its proof of being there when it happened. New skins will come out that are just as good. If it comes back every year it no longer means you were active in 2023/24? I forgot when it was fully. Same reason I disagree with the new mythic shop
Pure speculation - none of us know what’s in the contract…
For all we know that contract could extend for several years and it could’ve been delineated in the agreement that Blizzard can re-release the skin at any time they like…
Honestly thats something i did not think about. I assumed after hte collab the contract ended. But your totally right, we dont know unless these contracts were publicly released.
I speculate because usually contracts like that tend to be a limited duration.
Because such contracts usually either cost a lot, or you fork over some % of the income from the skins to the partner.
Sometimes both.
Now i don’t know how the system is handled with blizzard when it comes to purchases, but in some chosen way that cash goes to the collab partner and i don’t know how easy or hard it is to separate it from the rest of the purchases.
The shop glitches out with new seasonal bundles with almost every season, and on top of those they would need to keep an eye out for a specific “bundle x” in the purchases and make sure it’s working as it should be.
