Rogue, You Guys Get Paid? and Laser Kittenz are all scheduled to compete.
With the qualifier rounds now complete, the Overwatch Pit Championship now has their top 12 teams of the European and North American regions, all of which will compete for a $15,000 prizepool in their respective regions.
The teams are as follows:
Europe Region - games start Thursday, March 23
Group 1
Group 2
Although generally considered the "weakest" region for Overwatch eSports, these European teams have given North American teams a run for their money. The newly-formed Lazer Kittens - made up of Overwatch veterans Winghaven and Kyb - will make an appearance in the Overwatch Pit Championship, along with some well-known organizations like eUnited and Ninjas in Pyjamas. Hammers Esports' new roster - formerly known as The Chavs - will also have a chance to shine within this tournament as well.
