How to get better at Overwatch 2: Best Practice Routine for Ranked
1. Introduction and purpose of the guide My name is Ben "Thor" Richter, I am 27 years old and I live in Leipzig, Germany. Before Overwatch, I played StarCraft 2 and was able to work my way up to the Grandmaster League (Top 200 EU). With like-minded people I founded the club "Leipzig eSports e.V." in Leipzig and took part in the StarCraft tournament at Dreamhack Leipzig. I switched to Overwatch during the game's beta and started playing in a master team as a DPS. I noticed that I was very focused on the strategic possibilities, but didn't have the mechanical skills to use them profitably for myself and the team. In the summer of 2018 I started coaching different teams while climbing through the ranks and in February 2020 I became an assistant coach for the EU Contenders team "HSL Esports" until I moved to the EU Contenders team "Sheer Cold" in August and have been a coach there ever since. At the start of 2022 I took over the org as owner and help to foster more European esport talent within the scene. 2023 I became the Headcoach for the German national team in the Overwatch World Cup 2023. Figure 1: Sheer Cold Coach Thor (Graphic from Twitter: @Spirer_) The purpose of this guide is to share my knowledge on the individual training process of professional Overwatch players. I have gathered this information from 4 years of coaching in Blizzard's professional league - Overwatch Contenders - as well as countless 1-on-1s with players competing in the Overwatch League and Contenders. This guide does not claim to be complete, nor does it cover every aspect of training, but it is my opinion on the subject. The goal is to give an insight into how professional players train, and to provide a method for improving in Overwatch in a time-efficient manner. As a professional esports player, a healthy body and the right mindset are essential. I will not cover physical training in this guide, as I lack the knowledge and experience in this area to give quality advice. However, for optimal training and results, I recommend that you do extensive research on the subject. 2. Set proper goals and understand the effort According to statistics from Blizzard Entertainment, 78 percent of all
“I had my first session with thor recently, going through both cover and the thought process I should apply. My play has improved incredibly. Will book again.”
