Overwatch Resources
Hello, I am Walshington, an Overwatch player.
This site is a collection of created and compiled Overwatch resources. Most resources are related to Overwatch in a competitive environment. There are many improvement-based guides and resources intended to help you become a better player. But there are some fun things, too! You can browse Overwatch guides by type, tags, heroes, and authors. As of June 2018, this site contains 100+ resources created by 70+ authors.
Most resources are of the "long and detailed" variety. You will not find many 101 and introductory guides here. Most guides are intended for players who are already comfortable and knowledgeable with the game and want to improve further. If you need basic information, the Overwatch wikis or in-game hero information may be a good place to start.
Hope you enjoy and find something useful to enhance your Overwatch play here!
