So I got perminently banned from comp. I’m not even going to defend myself here, I was being an idiot and leaving games I was losing because me and my teammates were doing poorly. I’m not in any way shape or form saying that I don’t deserve the ban I got. But I want to know if I can earn back these privileges. I didn’t realize until to late, but being banned really sucks. Especially since my friend just began playing more of it and really enjoying it. I just want to know if I can have another chance.

No, you can’t. Your only option is to buy another account.

You can totally have another chance, getting banned is like getting fined.
Now you just need to pay the fine which will be 40 bucks

The whole point of the ban is to make you unable to harm others. It is deserved and should not be evaded or removed. Try to learn from it.

If its a seasonal ban (just banned for this season), the next one you will be able to play comp again. If its truly a perma ban you’ve got, no. It is like a diamond, it is forever. Buying a new account will do the trick, but you will start from zero of course.

season ban or permanent ban
I say make lemonade man. Rejoice that you don’t have to be a part of the crappy matchmaking anymore with forced losses.

For those asking, here is simulated images from my Competitive F.A.Q. guide to telling if you are permanently banned or if it is seasonal:

First person I’ve seen post that they have been permanently banned. Maybe reports do something at last.

Perm ban? I feel like OP is downplaying what he was doing…
If you still want to play the game, buy it again, and behave yourself this time. Hope you didn’t spend a bunch on lootboxes.

It takes 3 season bans to reach a permaban, or a violation so severe that it is beyond mentioning.
Why you lie and make it seem like a silly thing. You either are a racist homophobic sexist mofo or you have been banned multiple times already and had multiple chances. At this point unbanning you would undermine the reason for it to become perminent.

google… you can read about many more permabans from various sources. Videos, reddit posts, lots of confirmation that people are being banned and even for good.
You know every action has consequences. Should’ve thought at all of this before acting like an idiot. Looks like you gonna have to buy another account now ¯_(ツ)_/¯

you are a potato and i dont think your really telling the Whole story of what you did to be perma banned but i know that there is a 99% chance you deserve it. im suprised you dont seem the least bit on edge about what you did. you show that you know you messed up but that isnt an excuse you ruinded the game for several people. alot of people use OW to escape the BS of the World and then they have to deal with people like you. you dont deserve a second chance in my opinion. not even by buying a new acount

Please don’t buy another Overwatch. If you have anger issues, go get help from a professional first. You don’t have to ruin the game for others.

If it’s for leaving and it’s genuine, I don’t think the punishment fits the crime - especially if they’re taking previous seasons in to account. If it’s a deterrent, it’s not exactly fair to permaban w/o a decent heads up imo. Additionally, for the people who actually are out to exploit… what’s $40?
