actually pre-ordered now, woo

any idea if we'll be able to upgrade to Origins post-launch if we've preordered? not 100% sold on the 5 skins for $20 since I haven't gotten to actually play this game yet and don't care enough about the other bonuses. lots of posts I've seen on reddit etc have said yes, but I haven't read anything official.

i got origins but honestly the origins skins are shit compared to the other skins (except it's cool to see reaper as a human + solider 76 with no mask, but bastion's skin is so bad)

tbh bastion's skin was the main reason i considered getting origins lol it's so clever

btw, if you have amazon prime you can get origins edition for $48 as opposed to $60

As a former competitive Unreal Tournament and a current TF2 competitive player, I think a pro 6s overwatch team will eventually consist of 1 of each of the following classes:
Soldier 76 - The most solid balanced offensive character imo
Hanzo - Very solid defensive character that I believe counts as a sniper
Road Hog - The most solid balanced tank character imo
D.va - Very solid tank character, should work well as the main pocket for Mercy give their levels of mobility and her defensive matrix
Mercy - Her Resurrection ability is amazing and she heals/buffs teammates well
Symetra - Her teleporters strike me as an essential item to a pro team. And I believe she counts as a builder

Lucio strikes me as the best support character overall, however since I think its too much to ask him to skate around and boost everyone to the front all game as players die and respawn, I see him being used during the initial push and then that player changes to mercy or symetra as the game progresses

Everyone getting this on PC or are some getting it on console?

Yeah, switching is a big thing in this game, so Lucio is definitely an out of the gate pick, and then that slot might move onto something else more active. But even still, he's consistently useful. And having 2 supports isn't so bad sometimes.
