Overwatch League: Week 4 - May Melee
So... Washington Justice, San Francisco Shock, and Houston Outlaws lost... but Florida Mayhem won, so that's cool. Go off Mayhem and Dallas, I guess.
This week is the May Melee Tournament, the first tournament of OWL Season 4. Like last week, we don't know which teams will be playing during specific rounds, since there is a winner and loser bracket, so I'll go over the matches we know about and what I think will happen(teams that I think will win are highlighted). I also want to mention that this is all Eastern Standard Time(EST) in the US, think Virginia, New York, New Jersey, the Carolinas, Pennsylvania, and a few more states. Just check the OWL website for what time the matches take place in your timezone or convert EST to your timezone.
Quick TLDR: Just go to the Overwatch League website to look at all of this information; the schedule, the info. about the MM-Mei skin, the info. about Rewards, also check out my MM-Mei skin post.

Overwatch League: Pirate Ship Bastion
Alright, so this is a day late, oops. We got another Overwatch League-themed skin. In the honor of the pirate ship comp, and for the Countdown Cup, we got Pirate Ship Bastion! Even though I like the other OWL skins, I really like this skin. I like that Bastion's feet are anchors and Ganymede is very cute as a parrot. The skin is available until August 30th and costs 200 OWL tokens. You can get 200 tokens for $10 UDS. You can also get tokens by watching the Overwatch League on the app, website, or YouTube, if you have your YT and Battlenet accounts connected.
With that said the Countdown Cup is going on this weekend, the first matches are going to be in a few hours from when I am writing this, so you can watch those matches between the Atlanta Reign, Los Angeles Gladiators, Seoul Dynasty, and Chengdu Hunters to get some tokens.
Overwatch League: Playoffs!
Alright, as I am writing this, the first 2021 Playoffs match is happening in about an hour. Tonight, (for me at least, check what time zone you are in, I'm EST in the US), we will have the first four matches of the Winner's Bracket. I believe that the Watchpoint Preshow with Soe, Danny, Custa, and Reinforce will be first, starting in an hour or so, with the matches coming after that. Here is a list of the matches happening live tonight. All of these matches encores will be tomorrow. Remember this is all in Eastern Standard Time.
- Washington Justice vs. Dallas Fuel: 7:00 pm.
- Philadelphia Fusion vs. LA Gladiators: 8:30 pm.
- San Francisco Shock vs. Shanghai Dragons: 10:00 pm.
- Atlanta Reign vs. Chengdu Hunters: 11:30 pm.
You will be able to watch this on the Overwatch League's YT channel. Make sure to connect your Battlenet Blizzard account to your YT account if you want to get drops. Here is a link to another post I made about drops and how to connect your accounts.
