If overwatch characters get wow skin, what would they be?

[Reica]

Can You explain?

Come to think of it, yea he could be a draenei but Socrethar is an Eredar, right?

Same voice actor. Then again, he also voiced Blackhand. And Anub'arak in Heroes.

but aside of that, Socrethar is also kind of bulky, and in the HFC fight he's in a giant mech/armoured suit.

[Xaath]

Jaina as Mei? Ice lance, ice block, blizzard, cone of cold (sort of)

[l33t]

What else can you think off?

Widowmaker - female Draenei, because sexy;

Reinhardt - male Tauren, because big;

Winston - male orc, because ape;

McCree - male human, because cool.

junkrat undead for sure, would be funny to blow off his own bones

[Zelendria]

Goblin fits more because of the weapon style, and if he's hunched for that height, then he's hunched at a good height for a goblin. Trolls hunched would be extremely tall still.

Junkrat would be a fooking massive goblin given that he's well over 6ft

He's pretty hunched. when he's actually walking around in game.

[Soulwind]

Which makes him look more like an undead or a troll than a goblin

[FelPlague]

My guess

Tobjorn - Dwarf, duh

Junkrat - Goblin

Roadhog - Abomination

D-Va - Gnome

Mei - Pandaren

Symettra - Draenei

Reinhardt - Tauren

Widowmaker - Bloodelf

What else can you think off?

issue is alot of chars dont really work with wow, as alot are mobile, and alot use guns... and well wow has only 1 class that really uses guns... but im going to go off a race/class thing cause just race would be way too easy...

Genji=(maybe demon hunter?)
Junkrat=Dr.Boom
Roadhog=Stiches
Mei=Frost mage panda
Zahrya= orc arcane mage
Pharya= (warlock? idk, demonic wings/chaos bolts, human?)
Tracer= Night elf arcane mage again, blinking and using time
Widowmaker= Night elf hunter
Dva= Gnome in a steam powered mech suit like mechatorque
Tor= Dwarf engineer of coarse
Reaper= Human Outlaw rogue?
Mercy= Human holy priest of coarse
Zenyata= Panda Mistweaver monk
Hanzo= Blood elf hunter
reindhart= Tauren prot pally
Winston= Panda warrior prot?
Symetra= Draenei warlock? (idk cause teleporter and small turrets could be small demonic stones)
Soldier= Human hunter enginner i guess?
Bastion= Tauren druid :3 turn into a tree turret and fire glowing green seed bullets, and tank form explosions of flowers, fits for his transforming
Lucio=Troll disc preist?
Mcree= Outlaw rogue, maybe a undead? make his arm bone instead of robot?

Genji will get an Illidan skin. Calling it right now.

[Soulwind]

It should be noted that so far none of the skins have actually changed the character, and they could all be interpreted as some form of costume. Some are more intense, such as mecha-Pharah or scarecrow Junkrat, others are younger versions of the same people, but none are a different person.

So instead of having a goblin running around in Overwatch, we would most likely get a Junkrat with green paint cosplaying as a goblin.

"Frost mage Mei" wouldn't use a staff or anything like that, she would just have a Warcraft-themed ice gun.

I figured goblin because of the gadgets, not fitting the undead with that at all. Unlike reaper.

This is probably because they want to make Overwatch into an esport-centered game. You can't have completely different characters/races running around that could possibly make it unfair. It's the same in CS:GO and Dota 2, all the skins are just added flavour to a base model.

[Eldonia]

Reinhardt already resembles the Lich King, why not go the whole nine yards and give him frostmourne?

[Drakpower]

Widowmaker = Sylvanas
Reinhardt = BlackHand

Mercy as Confessor Paletress or High Inquisitor Whitemane

These ideas are amazing!

I personally would prefer the Overwatch characters themselves in different tier or unique armors. Reinhardt in Blackhand's armor w/ Hammer from WoD, Mei dressed in an appropriate Mage teir, Mercy in a Priest set etc. Though a complete replacement of Hanzo as Sylvanas and the same for Genji as Illidan are also pretty creative ideas.

[Life-Binder]

if you replace Genji and Hanzo models as Illidan/Sylvanas - 95% of players will just play only them

[ChaosWolf]

I'd buy a Zarya orc skin.

Orc Zarya...

...I'll be in my bunk.
