Overwatch: 15 Best Skins So Far - Ranked

14. Jazzy - Lucio The Jazz Musician

In an event full of amazing skins, Lucio's Jazzy skin was probably one of the most highly anticipated in Overwatch's anniversary event, with how many people thought Lucio’s personality and musical prowess lent itself to the cool, classic stylings of jazz performers.

The skin gives Lucio a cool, well-dressed top half with his waistcoat, tie, shades, and new hair, and even a cool-looking hat, while also giving him elements of jazzy brass instruments on his back, along his mechanical legs, and even making his signature weapon into the kind of horn you'd see in a jazz band.

Apart from being an excellently designed skin, this particular entry is made doubly appealing due to its musical redesign, with both healing and speed modes given two different piano pieces to play whenever you switch between them. And while this got annoying to some, this is a level of detail in design that deserves credit, especially if you want to hear something different from Lucio’s usual, more modern musical style as a DJ.

This was one of the skins that showed how far the designers could push how characters not only looked, but sounded.
