Twitch announced today the return of its annual self-named convention for 2022, following two years without an in-person event.

Overwatch at its highest level has overwhelmingly been run by tanks and supports for the past few years. From the omnipresent GOATS meta of 2019 to the dull double-shield brought on by Sigma’s introduction, the top tier of the game has revolved around everyone except damage dealers.  This year, something shifted.
