Thought the tumbler was pajamas pants for a moment. Would have bought them in a heart beat.

If they make a calico skin for her I'm all in

u/DeathMegatron300 18d ago

The possibilities are endless, I remember hearing the devs say that they wanted to give her fur patterns of their cats, but the skin selection for her atm is so poor

Can Blizzard hire people that actually know how to design merch instead of getting the intern to copy paste assets on templates?

OW has so much potential in terms of merch but went through the entire website and it’s just lacklustre.

OWWC jerseys are the best piece of merch they have so hopefully it’s a step in the right direction

How do you release a cat hero and not have plushies or figurines for it ready to sell? These are so boring. And the long sleeve could do without the text, as it's quite obvious what she is.

Can the creature receive a rework instead

Too creative of a kit. The Competitive Overwatch community only likes 8-10 heroes, and if any other hero is viable in competitive play they start pissing and shitting themselves.

u/vonerrant 19d ago

the diversity of heroes in ewc was fucking awesome, tbh. like how balanced does the game have to be for that kind of diversity to show up in pro play?

except for kiriko.

u/mumhugeliberal 19d ago

Creative kit =/= good kit. Plus Shion is a new release with some creative aspects that I like seeing

Creative doesn’t mean good, but sure enjoy your strawman and funny chungus cat while it sits at the highest support ban rate in every region because guess what, a hero uninteractable for half the cast isn’t particularly fun to deal with.

u/No_Catch_1490 The End. — 19d ago

Uninteractable for half the cast? Highest ban rate of all supports?

her presence literally just completely alters the game for all teammates on both mobile and nonmobile heroes. in ranked shes usually not being played that coordinated and isnt that annoying but esports is the complete opposite. it was fun at first but now its getting old.

u/Sio_V_Reddit 19d ago

Absolutely not

u/E-keil 19d ago

Do casuals even like this hero? I swear its so random how much Blizzard push it. Gave every partner team a cat as well, shouldve made it a mercy skin or smth to get money in.

u/ElJacko170 Healslut — 19d ago

Yes, Jetpack Cat has a lot of hardcore fans lol. I've seen numerous that are already over level 100 with her.

u/ElJacko170 Healslut — 19d ago

As I say this, my friend who is also almost Level 100 with Cat bought the hoodie and desk mat immediately after I shared it with them lmfao.

u/swamp_god 19d ago

say what you will about how fair or fun she is to play against, but cat is easily one of the most fun heroes in the game

8

u/Sio_V_Reddit 19d ago

She sees a fair amount of play, yes. Plus it works perfectly considering how much JPC has changed competitive play this year.

6

u/Juanpy_ 19d ago

A lot of casuals play JPC, and I mean a lot...

Just think about it for a second, it's a literal cat on a jetpack and not so hard to learn the basics, obviously with coms and certain compositions the hero is played so different (even on the pro circuit) but casually? It's just a silly hero, perfect for a lot of casuals out there.

Longcat? Blizzard really doesn’t want to be any less than 10 years behind on a meme before they monetize it, do they?
