The Overwatch League’s sixth season came to a close in front of a sold-out crowd of thousands at Toronto’s Mattamy Athletic Centre, as the #florida Mayhem took down the Houston Outlaws 4-0 in a thrilling contest of the best Overwatch 2 players in the world.

Over 150,000 viewers tuned in around the world to watch the action throughout the weekend and celebrate another champion crowned (based on YouTube “watching now” numbers, official numbers will be released in the coming days).
Eight teams from around the world, representing the United States, South Korea, China, and England, battled it out over the past four days in front of a passionate crowd, and when the dust settled it was the #florida Mayhem winning the best-of-seven Grand Finals match, bringing home the $1M grand prize and the Championship Trophy.

The event kept fans on their toes throughout, beginning with the 14-2 Atlanta Reign, and #1 seed in the West, being eliminated by the 7-9 London Spitfire in an upset that shocked the world. The surprises only continued from there, as the top seed from the East, the Seoul Infernal, fell next to the Houston Outlaws, meaning the first two teams to go home were the two favorites.
