"Server Closed Due to An Unexpected Error" in Competitive

As an update, we have found the cause of what was causing the Server Closed error. If anyone is able to retest Overwatch, please let us know if the error comes up again. We’ll continuing to monitor the issue and provide updates when we have additional information.

As for the SR loss and leaver penalties, please take a moment to check our thread, Overwatch Technical Issues, SR Loss, and Leaver Penalties. While the issue is a frustrating issue and understandably so. It’s rare these issues to occur, but the system is built to take these situations into account. While the first few penalties and losses are lenient to later ones, over time the rating will even out as you continue to play matches. As long as there are no intentional leaving or technical issues, these situations should not affect the account and sr loss in the long run.

Thank you all for patience and understanding of the situation.
