Overwatch<\/em> had a nontraditional approach to keeping score. Typically, competitive shooters like Apex Legends<\/em> and PlayerUnknown\u2019s Battlegrounds<\/em> keep a running list of kills, points, and team ranking on a shared scoreboard. Overwatch<\/em>, instead, used a less specific system that awarded an individual gold, silver, and bronze medals based on objective kills, objective time, damage done, and healing done.<\/p>\n

If you weren\u2019t a fan of the medal system, you\u2019ll be happy to hear that Blizzard has completely rearranged scorekeeping for the Overwatch 2<\/em> beta tests (which, by the way, you can still gain access to<\/a><\/span> by watching the Overwatch League\u2019s opening weekend) by implementing a more typical scoreboard. Let\u2019s walk through everything you should know about the change so you\u2019ll never have to crouch in a corner crying about how little Overwatch 2 <\/em>scoreboard knowledge you have. We\u2019ve all been there.<\/p>\n
