Blizzard has detailed the updates coming to Overwatch 2’s Competitive Play in next week’s season 12 launch, including another rank reset, some changes, and new additions to the existing formula.

In a new Director’s Take blog on Aug. 16, OW2 senior systems designer Gavin Winter reconfirmed that changes to the “Avoid as Teammate” feature will go live in season 12, now featuring 15 slots. Three of those slots are for players who can be “pinned” and permanently avoided, while the other 12 will be “recent” avoid slots that time out after a week.
