Players
Though it wasn’t meant to be for the long term, this explosive rookie arrived mid-season to help deliver the Paris Eternal an iconic win in the Summer Showdown.
Who is SP9RK1E?
Memories were made early in Week 3, when the great Toilet Bowl was fought between the Outlaws and Uprising. After 7 grueling maps, this team was finally declared the winner.
Who are the Uprising?
The memes began early in 2020, when a sponsorship card with this iconic title made a surprise appearance during gameplay–whether Cheez-It Grooves or Pringles Wavy, you can bet it’s always...
What is Crunch Time?
Briefly appearing at the end of Season 2, this meta dominated the early half of Season 3, named after the multiple barriers that defined it.
What is double shield?
No one does statistical anomalies like the Shock. Take their performance on this map over the last two years, where they went 18-0 before finally losing here in the Grand Finals.
What is Hanamura?
Despite a perfect map winrate, this player had the least amount of time played in 2020.
Who is ChipSa?
The Dragons completed their transformation into a league powerhouse this season with some major wins, including a reverse sweep over the Dynasty in this tournament final.
What is the May Melee?
It may have cost him $1000, but this player won the hearts and minds of the community when he typed three immature, yet admittedly hilarious, words in chat.
Who is Lastro?
Hero pools had a big impact on the game, especially when favored hitscans McCree and Widowmaker were banned–leading to this hero’s first serious appearances in OWL.
Who is Ashe?
This player may not have won it all this year, but he did become the first and only player to cross 10,000 Career Eliminations.
Who is Profit?
With two team changes over the last year, this world-class DPS–and sometimes off-tank–flipped the league on its head when he reappeared just in time for playoffs.
Who is Decay?
ANS was the Rookie of the Year choice for many, no doubt helping his case when he set a new record for these in a regular-season match (90!) against the Atlanta Reign in August.
What are Final Blows?
The Shock have had more than enough postseason experience in their dominant run–so despite the playoff meme, Moth probably wasn’t this.
What is nervous?
You’re more likely to see it in ranked than in OWL, but this chaotic meta appeared in flashes near the end of Season 3–and probably wouldn’t have been appropriate for Disney XD.
What is Hog and Ball torture?
Completely passed over during awards consideration, this rookie was a monster in the regular season with the most Total Final Blows (1,120).
Who is KSP?
During our All-Stars event, the APAC region saw a returning Widow 1v1 champion in Diem. North America, however, crowned a new winner: this veteran hitscan.
Who is Linkzr?
Another one for the trophy cabinet: the Shock set the record for the fastest OWL match in history, defeating this team in 19:23.
Who are the Titans?
We hope he’s back next season, but if he isn’t, Rascal at least left us with an incredible postseason meme–inviting teams in Loser’s Bracket to this battle royale location.
What is the Gulag?
One of hero pools’ greatest unintended consequences, this hero burst onto the scene for one glorious week–and helped Carpe net his 4,000th Final Blow.
Who is Torbjörn?
Season 3 was a long journey, but when all is said and done, this team had the highest Overall Teamfight Win Rate (54.6%) across all matches.
Who are the Fusion?
From OWL to Contenders and back again, this North American main tank has already secured a chance to improve on his 2020 appearances next season.
Who is Beast?
A thrilling early-season rivalry, these two teams went to Map 5 three times in two months, including a Week 5 stunner that ended on Oasis.
Who are the Fusion and Eternal?
OWL connected with the early days of internet memes when this longtime fan appeared on the Watchpoint desk.
Who is Tay Zonday?
The Justice had tournament surprises in store before playoffs–in the Summer Showdown, they upset the Gladiators with a standout performance by TTuba on this hero.
Who is Genji?
In a year with one of our most impressive rookie classes, this DPS flew under the radar, despite being the only player to deadlift (50% of team’s Final Blows in a win) two maps this season.
Who is Glister?
