The Pachimari event skin for Overwatch's Roadhog is profoundly silly

Overwatch's celebration of that weird onion-octopus diddle that it fabricated every bit an in-world prop but now unironically embraces, Pachimari, has reached new heights with the PachiMarchi take exception. For the continuance of the event you can earn onion-octopus themed rewards like a role player icon, a Pachimari emote for Junkrat, and if you deliver the goods nine games you can get a Pachimari Roadhog skin. And I am here to public lecture about the Road hog skin because it is hysterical.

Galore of the characters in Overwatch have a scrape that's not very serious. Especially among the first generation of heroes, who tend to ingest at the very least a swimsuit or the likes of. Roadhog… doesn't real have those. Sure, he has a holiday skin, and an ice fishing skin, but those are at least somewhat daunting. Straight off, however, Road hog can look care this:

Just a big winnow, wouldn't constitute taboo of property at a video game pattern anyplace in the world. The lovely tilt of his manoeuvre is what seals IT for Maine. I can't say I'm too versed on my Roadhog traditional knowledge, but it's been implied before that he's into assembling Pachimari. I believe the Book of Revelation that the hog is in fact Pachimari's #1 Lover, as IT says on his belt buckle, is a new piece of canon, though. Turns out the big roast has a soft dapple for something after all.
