Hanamura is one of Overwatch’s <\/em>most notorious maps for draws in competitive play.<\/p>
It’s seen the most draws of any of Overwatch’s<\/em> maps, Blizzard confirmed<\/a> in an announcement today. To fix that, the developer is making aggressive changes to the game’s public test region. On assault and hybrid maps, competitive Overwatch<\/em> players on the PTR will certainly see less ties.<\/p>
Blizzard provided some examples<\/a> to help conceptualize the adjustments. Teams that score one more point will still work as it does on the live server. Things change in other situations, however.<\/p>
If neither team is able to score any percentage on the first point, it’ll still be a tie.<\/p>
“Small differences in capture percentages now matter,” Blizzard said<\/a> in a post outlining the PTR changes. “Getting full held to zero percent capture progress on a point is now a really big deal.”<\/p>
