Overwatch cosplayer\u2019s Plague Doctor Mercy outfit would make a perfect skin Blizzard\/AmazonAn Overwatch cosplayer has crafted a totally unique take Mercy, transforming the support hero into a plague doctor and the result is fantastic. The hero Mercy is one of the most popular in all of Overwatch. Thanks to her high amounts of healing, damage boosting and powerful Resurrection ability, she can easily carry games. However, most of the character\u2019s skins tend to keep her theme quite light, maintaining the theme of her being a guardian angel. That all changes, however, thanks to a great new approach to the hero by Katerpiller Kosplay. The image of a Plague doctor is pretty iconic. With the bird-like mask and dark cloak, the image conjures up more feelings of dread than hospitality. However, in recent years, thanks to the advent of goth culture, the plague doctor look has become a bit more mainstream. https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CKwe6Z8jhrq\/ As such, Katerpiller Kosplay decided to try her luck at transforming Mercy into the 17th century physician. Dressed in black with the mask equipped, the cosplay completely flips the script on what is normally a kind-hearted hero. Taking to Instagram, the cosplayer wrote, \u201cCosplay has honestly been my way of keeping any hope through these dark times. Thank you all for keeping me going.\u201d https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CKo11KTDC4v\/ With everything going on in the world, it\u2019s nice to see that the activity has had its benefits for the cosplayer. \u201cThat\u2019s why I created Plague Doctor Mercy to give people hope during this time,\u201d she added. It would definitely be nice to see Blizzard turn this skin idea into a reality. Unfortunately, it doesn\u2019t seem likely with such short notice. The Chinese New Year event is scheduled for February 4, but there\u2019s always a chance something could happen in time for the Overwatch Anniversary or Halloween events later on in the year. Mercy isn\u2019t the first Overwatch cosplay she\u2019s pulled off either. In the past, she\u2019s dressed as Mei, Junkrat and even McCree. We can\u2019t wait to see what other original ideas she can cook up in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
