Viewership rewards on YouTube only work when a rewards-eligible live broadcast is running (which has not yet started this season). So that explains why you are not seeing the icon at this time.

Sepheron64 is correct. To be specific, a team needs to have 1 minute or more with the other team with absolutely no time remaining. If both teams have any amount of time remaining, or if the team with time remaining has less than a minute, both teams get to attack again.
This rule also applies to the Assault map type when it used to appear in Competitive Play, which was more common to happen.
Greetings, Overwatch 2 Workshop creators!
With the launch of Season Four comes a variety of new Projectile tools to use in your custom games! Whether you want to give your heroes extra firepower, or add new dangerous obstacles to maps, you will be able to do so with these new scripts in the Workshop.
Creating Projectiles
You can now spawn projectiles as an action that can travel based on parameters you set, including direction, duration, speed, projectile size, and gravity. Projectiles can either damage, heal, or trigger other events you are able to script in your custom game. If you activate the Projectiles Extension, you can even select the appearance of projectiles from existing Overwatch 2 Hero abilities, such as Pharah’s rockets.
Creating Homing Projectiles
With a similar interface as regular projectiles, homing projectiles work by following a specified target configured by either a specific player or other va...
Read moreSeason four of Competitive Play is here!
Competitive Play is designed for those players who want to put their skills to the test and offers a more serious experience than our Quick Play or Arcade Modes. Players new to Overwatch 2 will unlock access to Competitive Play when they complete the Competitive Play Qualification challenge by winning 50 unranked games.
We want to keep you up to date on some of the bugs and issues we’re aware of that are affecting the game. This is not a complete list of all currently tracked issues affecting Overwatch 2, rather this is a targeted list of some known specific issues with this release.
We’re sorry for any inconvenience, and we appreciate y’all’s understanding. Our team is working to resolve these issues, and we will provide more information as soon as we have updates!
Greetings heroes!
Overwatch 2 Season 4 is just around the corner, and this will be a substantial update featuring the new Support hero, Lifeweaver, and a galactic-packed season which you can read in our blog here. This patch will also be a “rebase” patch which will require a very large download for all players on all platforms. Rebase patches consolidate our patches into the core game, which in the long run, keeps the final data size of the game client manageable for both PC and console.
You will need to have as much as 38 GB of free space on your system when updating. If you do not have that much space, you c...
Read moreThis map was made on Twitch by Aaron Keller with help from everyone who tuned in during our “Twitch Makes Overwatch” live stream last December, everyone voted on things we put into the map as it was created in a span of a few hours. It was really awesome to see.
A new patch is now live on PC, Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch. Read below to learn more about the latest changes.

Overwatch 2 WIP VERY SERIOUS Patch Notes – DRAFT – DO NOT PUBLISH
These changes are only being applied to Arcade Mode for the moment, because Aaron Keller claims he can convene with Pachimari, and they told him to make this patch. He only plays the new arcade modes, so he shouldn’t notice otherwise.

Read moreWe are starting a short maintenance, details here found in this post:
https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/overwatch/t/overwatch-2-maintenance-march-20/790805/
Overwatch 2, along with all Blizzard games, will be undergoing server maintenance starting on Monday, March 20, at 5:00 AM PDT and will last for approximately 30 minutes. During this time, the game will be unavailable to play on all platforms. Prior to maintenance, we will slowly stop matchmaking queues and prevent new games from being able to start before the maintenance goes live. This maintenance is server-related only, and players should expect to see no change to gameplay once the service resumes. Thank you for your understanding.
Greetings, for your specific inquiry, Blizzard Support would not be able to check the status of Competitive record which is probably why you are not reaching a point to submit a service ticket, and are being referred to our existing support articles.
To answer your question, even if you did get hit with a competitive penalty, chances are the starting suspension has likely ended by now, and you should be able to resume playing Competitive Play. When you reach your next Competitive rank update, there will be an indicator in the UI showing if you had any leaver violations in that set of matches.
Hello heroes. In our most recent update, we made a change to how you can use unlockable voice lines during a match.
Unlockable voice lines can be used freely during the pre-game setup phase of the match. Setup is intended to be a playful phase of the game, so we wanted to give you the opportunity to enjoy your favorite unlockable voice lines without restrictions.
During the match, you always hear your own voice lines, but if you spam a significant amount of voice lines, you might sometimes be the only player hearing them. When this happens, a message will appear in the text chat field when the restriction is taking place and includes the time remaining in seconds before other players will hear your unlockable voice lines again.
Other comms like “Need Healing,” “Group Up,” and all Ping Voice Lines aren’t considered unlockable voice lines and will be controlled by the pre-existing spam protection rules.

FYI, we had allotted 11:00 - 13:00 for this (meaning we blocked time out on the team’s schedules to dedicate to the AuAA). Since we still had technical issues by the end of that time, the team is posting responses as they can between meetings throughout the day, including this new update from Josh about Mercy.
Thanks for putting this together, Baja, gonna pin this for a little while so everyone can catch up. Also expect one or two late answers in the Reddit Thread coming in so keep checking!

We are already busy drafting up a bunch of answers to the questions on the r/CompetitiveOverwatch AMA, and we look forward to getting them up as soon as the technical issues with Reddit are resolved. Thanks for your patience, everyone!
