  It's like WoW tier armor all over again. I should bet money that Mercy will be getting WoW priest tier 5 down the road.

  hmmm, do I want these enough to go play some Overwatch. I'd like the Mei and Dva, but having to get them in random draw boxes is no fun.

  Thanks for these! I don't play the game but Blizzard always tends to do top notch skins.

  Got Mercy (fantastic), Mei in white (should have been released last September!), Mercy highlight (awesome), D.Va (mech doesn't look as good in-game... possibly because the CTF maps are so dark?), Mei victory pose, Mei emote.
  
  Want: Tracer highlight, Mei in red, Winston, Reinhardt, Zenyatta, Roadhog skins, Roadhog highlight.
