The OWCS World Finals are set to start up soon. A conclusion to the inaugural year for the Overwatch Champion Series. This will be the grand finale. all year, we’ve seen the new teams in the open format competing. First, regionally. Then, in Majors at DreamHack evets. There’s been a lot of change with Overwatch this year, but which team will claim the crown for the year?
The OWCS World Finals will answer that. All year hopefuls have been playing in events to get their slots here. With a new open format to the OWCS, it’s been a tournament that lets the best players rise to the top, irrelevant of their team name. The champions at these finals will have the clearest claim to being the very top team of Overwatch this year.
