It's been a long wait but I promise its worth it -- the Overwatch Hero Meta Report returns to cover the entirety of the largest Overwatch tournament to date: the Overwatch Open. Join me as I dive into 7000+ rows of oodles of columns of data, and let's see what we can learn together.
Ready, set, TANKS! The Tank Meta is in full effect -- CaptainPlanet breaks down the history, the strengths, and the potential for unhealthy decision-making in what's become Season 2's first concrete Meta. Also, a deep dive into King of the Hill first caps and how they relate to win rate.
The 3x3 strat seems to be here to stay -- and its all Ana's fault! Kind of. Join me in a deep dive about Armor mechanics, ultimate charge rate, and what makes the NiP strat tick in this week's report.

This week, the Meta seems to be in dire straights. 11 of Overwatch's 22 Heroes had less than 5% usage rate for the third qualifying weekend of the Faceit Eleague Tourney and the culprit is two simple abilities: Discord Orb and Speed Boost. It's a bit too early to panic, however, as many of the F Tier Heroes have had success in previous Metas -- it's simply the Deathball Meta that's pushed them down the ladder.
