There will be a little extra on the line this weekend in the Overwatch League.
In Week 16, teams will compete in the May Melee, an in-season tournament that features cash prizes. Wins and losses will count toward the regular season standings.
The OWL will not host in-person events for the foreseeable future, but weekly competition will continue online. And, following an action-packed Week 15, the best Overwatch players in the world will return Saturday and Sunday for what should be a fascinating Week 16.
Here’s what you need to know about the May Melee:
