TOKEN DROP ADVISORIES

Tokens notifications are being delayed on Twitch. Please keep watching and they should catch up today or tomorrow.

Players of ineligible countries may notice they are no longer earning tokens. Blizzard and Twitch originally mistakenly issued tokens in week one of Overwatch League Stage 1, but have since stopped distribution of tokens to any players who reside in a country that are not eligible to earn tokens. For more details on if your country is eligible please see the official contest promotion rules . Any tokens previously received will be allowed to be kept.

Tokens on Twitch are reported to be working again. I am still checking on drops not working on non-Twitch platforms (OverwatchLeague.com , BattleNet App Launcher), so I recommend for now to keep watching on Twitch with your BattleNet account linked to Twitch.

I have Titans taking this, but it would be fun to see GZ get the upset.

5

I’m going to have to give this the Vancouver. They were so dominant in their first game, but that was also the only game we saw them in so far.

6

Vancouver are the 3rd and final unbeaten side, but Guangzhou has a Team UK member. 3 hour match incoming.

Vancouver Goats is scary. Trying to mirror them, at least on control, is a bad idea.
