Overwatch 2 removes Clash maps from ranked
According to Overwatch 2 game director Aaron Keller, Clash maps will be removed from the Competitive Play game mode starting in Season 15. This removal will allow the Overwatch 2 team to work on them and improve their experience in ranked gameplay.
“This past year, we introduced Clash, which was inspired by the original Assault maps, but gave players a chance to attack and defend throughout the course of the match,“Keller stated. “Clash has had some really good matches, but we’ve also seen a lot of constructive feedback.”
He then acknowledged some issues with Clash maps, including how one team can quickly steamroll the other and the confusion among players over which point is active.
“We’ll keep you updated on the progress we make there,” Keller added.
