There is no doubt that the Zhulong Sombra skin celebrates the Shanghai Dragons. The design is clearly showing her as a Dragon. The developers matched it with the color scheme of the Dragons as well. The red along with the gold everywhere adds a nice touch for the team. Not to mention the orange flames for her collar and in her gun itself.
Boop! 🐉

Along with this, the scales and horns are more representative of an eastern dragon than a western one. The biggest indicator of this is the horns. The reason for this is simple, the team is based out of China, thus the dragons looks more like the folklore dragons of old China.
This legendary skin will be only on sale for a little under a week though. Fans will be able to grab it from March 15-28 in 2022.
The San Francisco Shock and London Spitfire also have had skins given to celebrate their past wins. The London Spitfire with Winston and then the Shock with Doomfist and Roadhog for both of their titles.
This is a great addition as it not only shows the team support but the Overwatch League itself. With the league starting up in the next few weeks, it is time to start getting it back in the minds of the fans. This Zhulong Sombra skin should do the trick.
