In Blizzard's well-meaning earnest to quell one unruly player, the League is setting a standard of conduct contingent upon a hypervigilance on their part that cannot possibly be maintained consistently and fairly.
Today, Overwatch League officials announced today a new series of suspensions and fines. Taimou, Tairong, Silkthread, and xQc were all part of this disciplinary action, each found in violation of either the Blizzard terms of service or the OWL code of conduct.
If you visited the Overwatch League today, you were in for a surprise. Whether you knew about the promotion posted 6 days ago or not, every ticket holder who showed up this Thursday has received a commemorative Soldier: 76 figure that was originally included in the Collectors Edition version of Overwatch.

At the time of this interview, Dallas Fuel just lost 0-3 to San Francisco Shock and it didn't look close. I wanted to talk to Jonathan "HarryHook" Tejedor Rua in particular because Shock was making life a living hell for a support player.

The suffering Overwatch player loathes quick match because “no one takes it seriously” while also despising competitive play because “no one takes it seriously.” There is a palpable me-against-the-world mentality that convinces them winning is less about mastery of Overwatch gameplay and more adhering to a list of rules that supposedly result in social cohesion.
Brigitte's kit appears to be strong on its own, with multiple OWL pros confirming the suspicion that her presence in the game signals the end of an era of uncontested dive compositions defining competitive play.
I think she has the potential to make dive characters less strong. Right now, you can play dive on pretty much every map. However, all the utility she brings is just really good against that. She can protect a backline character very well and, if the dive is not able to kill a backline character, it basically means your dive will be weaker and less effective.

Her primary fire is a melee ability that damages enemies and heals nearby allies. Additionally, Brigitte holds a “personal defense” shield akin to Reinhardt’s Barrier Shield and Orisa’s Protective Barrier.
