Overwatch: 25 Best Skins You Must Unlock

25. Zenyatta – Nutcracker

Zenyetta is one of Overwatch’s most interesting characters, being a robotic monk who spouts existential platitudes whilst ripping the other team to shreds with his debuff ability. Despite his zen-demeanour and lack of facial expressions, Zenyetta is surprisingly charismatic, which is why his Nutcracker skin is so disturbing.

Whilst most of the Winter event unlockables were full of festive joy, Nutcracker came with an edge of uncanny darkness, transforming Zenyatta into an unblinking toy soldier which seems to look into your soul. Turning his Orbs of Destruction into actual nuts was a masterstroke, although this does little to make up for the unspeakable horror of the rest of the skin.

Even the recently released Cultist skin, which transforms the character into a Cthulu-inspired eldritch abomination, pales in comparison to the dead-eyed stare of Nutcracker.

Elsewhere, Zenyatta’s Sanzang skin (often called Sexy Zenyatta) is glossy and gorgeous, whilst his epic skins are amongst the game’s best. Still, it’s already intimidating enough having a Zenyatta on the opposing team, he certainly doesn’t need the creepy genius of Nutcracker to make him more terrifying.
