Earlier this week, Blizzard announced that it would be adding new incentives and rewards to Overwatch 2's comeptitive play. Now that the update is finally live, players will be able to spend this weekend earning "drive points" and climbing through the checkpoints.
Players can earn drive points during competitive drives, which are special events that'll mostly occur at the end of a season. "Each time you win a match you’ll earn a drive score that is 10 times the total Skill Rank percentage gained from that match," an Overwatch 2 blog post explains. "For example, if you earn 21% toward your next tier and division, then you’ll gain 210 drive points. Losing a match results in a having your drive score reduced five times the total Skill Rank percentage deduction, or half as much as a win gains. So, losing a match that costs you 19% in your competitive rank progress will deduct 95 drive points."
