About Overwatch Champions Series
The Overwatch Champions Series (est. 2024, Blizzard + FACEIT) replaced the Overwatch League as OW2's top circuit. The 2026 Midseason Championship (Jul 29 - Aug 2) was the Overwatch tournament of the Esports World Cup 2026 in Paris, gathering 16 teams from the regional OWCS competitions. Crazy Raccoon entered as OWCS Champions Clash 2026 winners and Team Falcons as defending Midseason champions, but ZETA DIVISION took the title, beating Twisted Minds 4-2 in the Grand Final for the Japanese club's first major international Overwatch trophy. Regional Stage 3 competitions run from late September to early November 2026.
