I believe this kind of thing has happened occasionally before on PTR, usually either saves are grayed out due to incompatibility with current version, or saves are completely missing even if made during the same patch, which is what seems to be happening now. I’m sure that if they are aware of the issue then they will get to fixing it, but likelihood is that they will be focused on ironing out Wrecking Ball and checking other PTR changes for balance and trying to get them to live servers, so I think the best bet is to either wait for live servers or just deal with remaking complex games if you have the will and memory to do so.
if you make the game again, it will still be the same… presaved or remade.
It was like this since anniversary
If Blizzard is gonna destroy our presets in the future, i would like to have an option to at least download backups into some kinda text file.

This is not true because there are options within the game that have been removed. As in, they cannot be changed anymore. Not everyone wants to spend 2, or 3 days retweaking, then another 2 or 3 days for things they forgot. Only to have to remake things for as many times as the saves no longer work. Who’s to say this wont happen again in a month? I had 8 back-ups just to make sure I wouldn’t have to start over from the beginning.
Every single one of my saves are unusable after the patch.
I’m not spending the only 2 days I have off work to re-do something i started a year ago.
I cannot change dva’s ammo for example, anymore… No idea why this was removed in the first place. 100% necessary for regulating the ult charge.

no no i meant like if you did remake the presaved, the game would still be bugged out… therefore blizzard needs to sort it out asap otherwise custom games is gonna be broke
i’m remaking it now. I remember the health for most of the characters, but i have no idea of the defense levels. Several hours of work and no where near finished. I’m not noticing any bugs besides the ones introduced in the latest patch.
This is a rather important issue that needs to be fixed as soon as possible. We should NOT have to remake custom game modes from scratch.especially the ones that have taken over a year to perfect. Lot’s of my friends in Overwatch are having this problem, we are not an isolated case/bug. Help us please!
might be worth checking patch notes for ptr, might be something on it
08.07.2018 still doesn’t work…

I think they just blew us off.
Been trying to fix this problem the entire morning without any success. It’s so annoying. My games are all there but I can only access two of them

it’s been almost a month, you hope in vain
I think it works now.
I had two major issues:
-
I haven’t been able to save more than two presets. To make it work I’ve deleted my presets and then I saw the ‘loading’ lettering. It took about 2 minutes and after that I was able to save more than two presets. Previously, when I was trying to save more than two presets, the existing ones just got replaced. So yeah, progress! It seems to work for now, none of the recreated custom games has been replaced or gone missing.
-
Presets I’ve created were only selectable from the dropdown menu when I tried to save a newly created custom game. They wouldn’t show up otherwise. What brought them back was actually creating a new game.
Weird stuff. They have to look into this 
Even tho I think you’re right, they won’t…
