We here at GosuGamers are excited to announce that we will end the Beta of Overwatch with a big bang: Overkill!
Overkill.gg is nothing less than the biggest Overwatch tournament in the short history of the game, featuring a $5,000 prize pool and the greatest players in the world. The best teams from around the globe will battle it out in an exciting scheduled league format to determine who can call themselves the kings of Beta!
In cooperation with our partners DXRacer and Matcherino we invited the eight best teams from the European and North American Server. In the first stage of the league, the teams will compete for the title of best in their respective region in a round robin league format. To crown the ultimate king of the Beta the North American champion will play against the European champion in an exciting cross-region final. This tournament will be the ultimate conclusion to the Beta: Which region is the superior one? North America or Europe? And who will be the first team to put their mark in the history books of Overwatch by crowning themselves the kings of Beta?
