Not to take away from player moves, but I have an announcement of my own: I won't be returning to OWL in 2021 as a contractor. I'll be returning as the new full-time Stats Producer at @Blizzard_Ent . Time for a whole new year of Overwatch. and beyond? 🤔.

do you know how much you have to love Overwatch to still be playing, much less trying to go pro at this point?. Blizzard should be holding onto these kids for dear life. I want to hope that this contenders strike actually becomes some kind of turning point. it’s just insanity.

Mirror and now Profit playing Zarya instead of their team's off-tank reminds me that some new fans might not know how lawless the GOATS era was. Zarya was a flex DPS.Sombra was a flex tank.Roadhog was a flex support. It was anarchy.

Shanghai Dragons officially take the title for hypest tournament winners in OWL history I think. Stage 3 2019, May Melee 2020, June Joust 2021. If they won there's a good chance it was fucking awesome.
