The notion of “Diversity for diversity’s sake” is code for “Characters should only be straight white males unless not being a straight white male is their defining trait, and even then we only need one or two”, so careful with that statement.

If you want “shafted” that reward goes to the likes of Dva, who is one of the very few heroes to still not have a unique event skin apart from the lame Summer Games palate swap.
