Overwatch: A CS:GO Competitor

Overwatch 's competitive mode is out today, but only on PC The highly anticipated mode comes to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One next week, Blizzard announced today. As the violations start to pile up, Competitive Play will be locked for an increasing amount of time. The heroes of Overwatch are many, powerful, and distinct—but their potential is amplified when they assemble into a formidable team. The characters are easy enough to pick up, with only two or three major skills, and they fit so neatly into a given role that you can jump in at any time with anyone and feel like you're helping your team. Pay homage to the original Overwatch strike force by wearing the vintage skins Blackwatch Reyes or Strike-Commander Morrison.

We're also assuming you're competent with these characters in general - obviously a player with worse aim but better map sense might prefer Winston or Roadhog over Genji. Competitive Play offers players new rewards in the form of new sprays, player icons, and Competitive Points that can be traded in for cosmetic Golden Weapons. And two, we believe this first season will teach us a lot of about what works well, what doesn't, and what players are really looking for from a competitive system in Overwatch.

Geguri may be the first female pro Overwatch player to have to defend her reputation against the sallies of sexist critics. Overwatch provides vital, at-a-glance game information to give you and your team the competitive edge. I might try competitive mode to see what it's like but I'd say I'll probably have more fun in the all Mercy/Pharah mode that's on this week. On May 20th, Blizzard released an infographic containing various player statistic gathered during the beta test period. Every gun is usually just a bit different, but Overwatch has been designed to fit most standard rail systems. The same day, those who preordered the game were allowed early access to the Open Beta.

If you'd like to take an even deeper dive into the latest update, feel free to check out the patch notes. Overwatch is a team-based first-person shooter video game developed by Blizzard Entertainment , in which players assume control of a variety of hero characters each with their own unique abilities. But repeated violations can also result in a ban on Competitive Play for the current season—including the forfeiture of any rewards. This is because our Competitive Play patch is launching in the middle of the Summer 2016 season, which technically began on June 1 (a minor side-effect of our real-world season system).

Overwatch launched on May 24th and most of the Blizzard Watch crew has been obsessed with why they haven't received the Play of the Game, who is going to be the next hero , and why Matticus won't group with any of us. Everyone's complaining about turrets and Bastions right now, but the same thing happened in beta before the community learned to counter these threats. Since the beginning of Overwatch, we have been extensively reviewing Investigators' Overwatch Scores. We don't have an exact date to share, but we can confirm that the patch is going through approvals right now on both platforms.
