Overwatch Season 2 adds post-match voice chat, which is such a bad idea that Blizzard is already warning players: "Banter is encouraged, abusive communication is not"

Overwatch Genji.

Overwatch Season 2 patch notes arrived today, and beneath a breakdown of the new Operation: Grand Mesa event and other limited-time modes, you'll find perhaps the funniest warning that Blizzard has ever issued: we're adding voice chat to post-game, but don't you dare act up.

"For the first time in Unranked and Competitive Play, players will be able to access Match Voice Chat as Post-Match Accolades begin," Blizzard says, quietly removing the pin from a grenade. "Players can join just before the stage appears but always need to manually opt-in by pressing a button," it adds, tossing the grenade into the room and swiftly shutting the door behind it. And yes, that does mean you can talk to the enemy team during the Play of the Game segment.
