Pokdepinion: Personally I think it’s a bit of an ask for Blizzard to ask us to play 27 games to get the Epic skins. I mean, the wait time for each game is already atrociously long nowadays, how long do you expect us (and me) to spend just to get into one match. Even if you do happen to win every match you play, it’s gonna take 14 matches.
