Opening Week Viewing Party

Join us in discord during opening week for an OWL viewing party! We did this during the preseason games and it was a lot of fun engaging with the community when the games were happening. After week 1 we’ll be highlighting a “Game of the Week” where we’ll try to get everyone online to view that game together since it’ll be much harder getting everyone together every week.

 

Join Totemlydrunk and Spyder on Episode 1 of Overwatch League Network: The Back Cap. Tonight the hosts shed some light on some teams to keep an eye on, share our thoughts on the balance changes that hit the PTR this week, and talk about our favorite Overwatch eSports moments from 2017.
