The Shanghai Dragons emerged victorious and scooped approximately $4 million. Besides, the tournament is lucrative for players as they could get bonuses worth $100,000. The 2022 Overwatch League started in May and will be on till November. 

Since the Overwatch League is the most hyped-about tournament, most fans want to find out how they can join the competition. You must play through the ranks successively by playing the minor leagues. First, you must win the Competitive Play and hit level 25 by earning as many points in the six seasons before proceeding to Overwatch Open Division. Once you conquer this stage, you should join the Overwatch Contenders Division, where you must prove your prominence to express interest in joining the Overwatch League. Ideally, you can join the Overwatch by completing the following steps:

  • Join the Overwatch Contenders Division - winning is almost guaranteed to getting into the desired league.

Overwatch promotes the 'Path to Pro' model by hosting the contenders' competition. This is where beginners test their abilities and hone their skills through the Open Division. In this contest, novices will be competing against experienced Overwatch players. Once players surpass this stage, they get into the Overwatch Contenders trials before getting into the league. This tournament is regionalized and has pool prizes for the best Overwatch teams. Players who prove their prowess get a chance into the Overwatch League. 

The last Overwatch League Contenders (2021) were played in China, North America, Europe, Australia, and Korea. Over $1 million was distributed out to the best performers. The 2022 season is yet to be announced, but plans are underway. 

3. Minor Overwatch Tournaments
