The announcing of this event comes just hours after news of Blizzard’s banning thousands of Overwatch accounts during the first few months of 2020. Due to its new competitive game mode, the banning of cheating players, as well as this new event, it is evident that Blizzard is intent on redefining the environment of its game. As part of the new event, entitled “Sigma’s Maestro Challenge,” Overwatch announced via Twitter that a music pack was now available for fans, entitled “Cities and Countries....

Both Ana and Junkrat are yet to have official ability reveals, but a new trailer featuring the duo does show returning abilities such as Junkrat’s Concussion Mine and Ana’s Sleep Dart being present in Heroes of the Storm. Junkrat also seems to have a new ultimate ability that allows the crazed junker to make use of a huge, exploding rocket for both faster travel and significant damage. The new map will be the second Overwatch location to make it into the game after the recent addition of Japanese map Hanamura....

In the updated clip, Overwatch fans can see a large rolling ball tumble through the alley. It moves too fast to catch too many details, but it does appear as though the ball is robotic in nature. Considering this, it’s possible the ball itself is the new character, and could be a new kind of Omnic - the race of robotic people in Overwatch lore. Other theories point to the ball having something to do with previously teased heroes, like the space monkey Hammond....

But while those at Anfield have placed greater emphasis on the acquisition of polished professionals, with close to £100 million spent on ready-made stars, the Gunners focused much of their attention on rough diamonds. Arsene Wenger has been around for so long now that he has a reputation for many things – missing every contentious decision ever made, buying French players, wearing coats that are far too big for him, blindly ignoring any criticism and generally getting on the nerves of Jose Mourinho....

He will be taking an online class at UNC and has submitted the requisite paperwork for admission into the NBA's D-League.

"With their counsel in mind, I have enrolled in an online course at the University of North Carolina, taking a class in my major that will be applied towards getting my communications degree....

Chris Petersen’s decision to retire at Washington means that the conference does not have a coach in the top 10 of our 1-130 coach rankings for the first time since 2016. A total of four Pac-12 coaches made the top 25, with Oregon’s Mario Cristobal the highest-ranked coach of the three.

Commissioner Larry Scott told USA Today that web-based DraftKings and FanDuel come a little too close to online betting to be promoted on a platform for college athletics.

This remake largely keeps the original title intact with graphical upgrades and gameplay improvements. Does the title hold up? Some complain the art style is bland and take issue with how the introductory cutscene was changed, but here are some ways it does hold up and things it does even better than the original release....

The change to 5v5 has led to developer Blizzard having to rework much about Overwatch to make it play better. Not only have the developers said they are updating maps to include more cover to break sightlines and protect lower health heroes, but the team is also reworking and updating a variety of heroes. So far, Blizzard has confirmed that Overwatch’s Bastion is getting a complete rework, while Mei is getting her power toned down slightly....

While Kiriko’s latest Legendary skin was available via Twitch drops and other heroes such as Sojourn, Mercy, and Junker Queen have also been given legendary cosmetics this season, Blizzard hasn’t given as much love to the Mythic tier. The sequel introduced a new tier for hero skins, deemed Mythic, but only one character has received one so far. RELATED: Overwatch 2 Lucio Snow Fox Skin Can Be Seen Through Walls...

The new Overwatch 2 Season 2 patch brings forth a host of new elements in the game, along with some bug fixes. Here’s a list of everything that’s changed and fixed in the new patch in the game.

Overwatch 2 will have new heroes for players to learn and face off against, as confirmed by the reveal of Sojourn during BlizzCon 2019. Exactly how many heroes, as well as Blizzard’s overall attitude toward adding heroes, hasn’t been obvious, however. Blizzard seems to now be much more confident in its plans for new heroes in Overwatch 2. In his interview, assistant game director Michael Chu wasn’t able to provide a specific number of new heroes, but he did confirm that Blizzard has “lots of heroes in the works for Overwatch 2....

It has been some time since the last Overwatch animated short, Zero Hour, was released. As such, many are hoping to see some more shorts focused on Overwatch 2. While these new shorts will surely feature the same gorgeous animation and important story moments that were seen in their predecessors, they also have an interesting dilemma to deal with. While they could be used to focus on the sequel’s new heroes, they could also fill in some gaps when it comes to the current roster of characters....

One player, under the account name CulonaVirus, has found themselves banned, reportedly for having been detected using cheating software while playing Overwatch. The player claims on the Overwatch forums that this was a false ban, and that they do not use cheats, however Overwatch’s game director and vice president of Blizzard Jeff Kaplan shared a differing opinion from the banned player.

Considering that D.Va is one of the most popular Overwatch heroes when it comes to pick rates, any tricks players can learn when it comes to her kit are going to be worthwhile. As an off-tank, dealing damage is just as important as absorbing it, making a potential boost to that damage output a great thing to know. While it is not game-changing and will rarely result in more kills, the ability to double D....

Lengyel’s latest suspension came about for repeatedly using a “racially disparaging” emote while streaming, and for using “disparaging language” against other players, including those in the Overwatch League. Lengyel’s first Overwatch suspension came about when he hurled homophobic insults at a fellow professional Overwatch player who is openly gay. Now that Lengyel is no longer part of Dallas Fuel, it remains to be seen what he will do next. It’s possible that another Overwatch League team will try to sign him, but given his issues with misconduct, that seems unlikely....

Last week, the account’s normally fun content took a turn when Dorn posted a series of photos chronicling the condition he found him in after returning from a trip and leaving him in the care of a sitter from the service Rover. “After being out of town for less than 72 hours, I returned to find Grover 4 pounds lighter and in a lot of pain both physically and mentally,” @redgroverredgrover wrote....
