If you are adding a mythic shop for past mythic skins, might as well put one for other battle pass skins.

It makes no sense to not have one for the other skins from past battlepasses, mythic are the only real reason really why most got the battlepass, and if there is going to be a shop for them next season, might as well add one for the basic/normal skins as well.

I see 0 reason for not having it.

There still needs to be some reason for people to buy the battlepass

In time.

Just keep not buying the pass. The only way they'll do it is if they don't receive the monetary compensation they expect from the pass initially.

That's my theory as to why mythics are doing this. Not enough people bought the entire pass, so maybe they can fomo a few mythic points from someone before a shop rotation instead.
An extension of my thought process is that if heroes sold battle passes they would still be in there
The only reason to remove them is because they are changing their approach to monetization overall because it wasn't high enough.

This is all based on that LinkedIn post from a former employee that divulge a few stats about overwatch 2 success-- and in general it's made less money than 1

The post suggest that's it's brought in around 200-300 million and the first brought in a cool billion.

Considering the trend of the game it's hard to believe it'll ever catch up. But blizz will try.

So if you don't buy the pass they will sell you those skins. They have to.

There would be. You would still pay for these skins after it expires, meanwhile if u get the BP you get them for free pretty much.
