    NYXL Homestand takes Overwatch League experience to another level

    Last weekend was the start of a new season of the Overwatch League. Unlike past seasons, however, this season is a little different. The Blizzard Arena is a relic of the past as it is time to move on to bigger things.

What’s good is that every fan gets to see Overwatch League and esports come to their respective cities. What’s worse is that teams, players, and the media will have to travel as well. After going to New York for the New York Excelsior Homestand last week, the environment of the arena, the atmosphere of the crowd, and the exciting matches are unlike the previous two seasons.
