Among the other huge announcement at this year's BlizzCon, including new Hero Sombra, Blizzard revealed their plans for the official Overwatch League. It will be following a more traditional sports model and will give everyone a chance to play in the teams. But it's best to let Blizzard themselves explain in the video below.
"The Overwatch League represents not only the pinnacle of Overwatch competition, but also a genuine career opportunity for the most skilled Overwatch players. We're building a league that’s accessible to players and fans, sustainable, and exciting for everyone involved."
- Mike Morhaime, Ceo and Co-founder of Blizzard
