Just like in the inaugural year for the Overwatch League, Blizzard will be offering two different skins to commemorate the competing sides.

In a April 25 tweet, the Overwatch League revealed the official look for this year’s Legendary designs that will have Lucio and Mercy representing the Pacific Division and Atlantic Division, respectively.

Official look at the 2019 All-Star Legendary skins

The previously leaked skins are now completely official, as the league posted a stunning rotating view for the two support heroes’ All Star skins.

Lucio will be draped in black, white and gold finish for his Legendary skin. The freedom fighter’s iconic dreads will be even more majestic as they changed to a brighter gold hue.

Mercy meanwhile will wear a purple and blue color scheme complete with matching wings and weapons. It seems like they’ll be playing off each other’s theme with Mercy donning a lunar style, while Lucio goes for a solar aesthetic.

Similarly, last year’s Genji and Tracer skins played off a fire and water theme that perfectly contrasted each other’s style. 

Even though this year’s skin is taking a different route with its theme, fans did see the similar approach in style between both iteration of All-Star skins.

The skins will be available for 200 tokens each, just like the year prior.
