Development

The Myth skin pack came together thanks to a diverse set of influences and several years on the backlog. A concept skin for Uther, called “Uthor” after the Nordic God Thor, was part of the inspiration. But once the art team translated the concept to Cassia with a lightning bolt for a weapon, the full event was finally born.

“We were thinking, wouldn’t it be cool to see Cassia with a Zeus skin? Because her kit is all lightning. And then it started hitting like ‘what if we added this character? Or that character?’” Trevor Jacobs says, punctuating each sentence with a snap of his fingers, reminiscent of a lightning bolt striking earth.

The bolt of inspiration started from Thunder Goddess Cassia electrified the team to create a Hermes-inspired Tracer skin, a Cerberus mount, and a Pegasus mount.
