Season 6 is going to be a make-or-break season for Overwatch. A TON of content is coming (most of it sounds interesting). I’m most interested in the “Player Progression System” they are advertising. What could this possibly be?
The cynical among you will just say they’re bringing back the individual player leveling “system” they had from OW1. I highly doubt this. It’s too simple. And if that were all it was, they would’ve just started it in season 1. Besides, they don’t have any lootboxes to give out each level anyways.
I’m hoping it’s individual levels for each hero you play. And that there are special cosmetics linked to each milestone.
Thoughts?

That would be a cool idea imo. Too bad blizzard will never do it cuz they’re stupid
The only other option is your own personal account level just like in OW1. And what would we even be progressing to? They can’t reward us with lootboxes anymore. And with all the legendary and mythic skins out there, I doubt it’s going to be a series of special skins just for this progression system.
It almost has to be an individual hero level with unlocks per milestone.

Probably you will get level for your account for every dollar you spent

Maybe things like milestones/triumphs like in Destiny
Showing things like you’ve did a team kill with Soldier once or that you’ve healed 20k with Mercy and things like that.
A reminder, they still think souvenirs, weapon charms, and sprays are OK rewards, giving out old skins is perfectly fine for the entire community and legacy players opinions don’t matter.
So what would stop them from using the old system all over again and going “this is fine” and then attaching absolute garbage rewards to it?
Expect borders and account levels to come back attached to throwaway cosmetics. Please look forward to it.
