Early build though. OWL S5 will launch on it.
EDIT: There is a full article from another OWL reporter with the same source. Jon Spector liked one of his tweets from before, its in my replies below.
April for OW2? Thatâs very early, I was expecting Jun or something.

In retrospect, OWL being the first ones to play OW2, even as a beta/early build, should have been obvious.

Better news than delayed OWL because of late OW2 release.

It would make for an interesting season though if the pros have to improvize on spot for the pre season.

man when it finally comes around and the OWL hating people see OWL playing OW2 before they can, the salt mines will be bountiful.

Liz Richardson is an extremely reliable source who reports on OWL all the time. Washington Justice wouldnât have responded to her like that if that werenât the case.

All i know is i pulled out my stock for blizzard with the latest controversy giving me a huge loss and no sign of ow2 or d4 coming anytime soon to fix that. As a former shareholder this is good news for me so i know when i recover my losses now xD

Imagine if only OWL would get OW2 and rest of players will wait year or two more.

Itâs actually quite smart to launch it through OWL.
It will build excitement for those that will buy it anyway and might bring more viewership to OWL.

Not only might but twitch will most likely be willing to raise the price and hold the transmission rights and buy them back from YT if thats the case which will be amazing for views. I could see OWL hitting 200k easily from this.

Correct me if im wrong but i remember OWL making a 2 years deal with YT Gaming so if thats true then it will expire anyway.
