Seasonal events: Difference between revisionsGive feedback
Correction for Warden's Binding Word Skin Challenge. It doesn't count if you land binding word on Viscous's cube, for example. (player gets rooted, but no damage occurs. Didn't work. It worked when they were in goo-ball. Viscous was last player. See match id 30998657 |

[[File:Christmas menu.png|thumb|2024 Winter main menu]] | |||
The 2024 Winter event ran from December 17 to January 17. | |||
It added a new main menu animation, remixed music for the menu and shops, and Winter-themed decorations in the streets, buildings, and [[Curiosity Shop]]. The [[Shopkeeper]] featured a Santa mask and unique lines. In addition, the [[Denizen|Denizens]] were modelled after snowmen. [[Dynamo]] and the [[Newscaster]] had unique holiday voice lines. | |||
All the mainline [[Heroes]] received unique Winter skins, which could be unlocked by completing their respective challenge. A list of which skins were unlocked during the event can be seen in the "Showcase" tab in the player's profile, next to the "Match History" button. Players who participated in the Winter challenge also unlocked a snow globe above their fireplace in the [[Hideout]]. | |||
==== Skin challenges ==== | |||
As the winter skin challenges weren't listed in-game or in patch notes, the challenges were discovered and shared by the player community over the duration of the event. | |||
These challenges could be achieved only in a normal match or a labs match, not in a custom game or against bots. The conditions for each challenge must be completed in '''one match.''' | |||
Winter skins were tracked in-game by a Santa hat icon in the main menu that showed how many skins had already been unlocked. Heroes with Winter skins had the Santa hat icon and a red background in the Heroes page. | |||
The skins can be tested in sandbox mode or custom games (with cheats enabled) with the [[console commands]] <code>ent_fire player setbodygroup hat,1</code> and <code>ent_fire player setbodygroup xmas,1</code>. | The skins can be tested in sandbox mode or custom games (with cheats enabled) with the [[console commands]] <code>ent_fire player setbodygroup hat,1</code> and <code>ent_fire player setbodygroup xmas,1</code>. | ||
