MY BUSINESS, MY RULES

It’s time to get your hands dirty. Unlock special Ashe-themed content in-game by playing Quick Play, Competitive Play, or Arcade to earn a limited-time player icon, a spray, and a new epic skin: Deadlock Ashe.

These special Ashe’s Deadlock Challenge rewards are a bonus on top of your normal earnings for playing in the Arcade.

Earn in-game rewards during Ashe's Deadlock Challenge by playing 9, 18, and 27 games.

 

WATCH TO EARN

Unlock additional rewards by watching Twitch streamers to get even more Ashe-themed cosmetics. Tune in to any Twitch streamer while they’re playing Overwatch now through July 5 to earn six Ashe’s Deadlock Challenge sprays!

Watch any Overwatch channel on Twitch between June 22 – July 5 for two hours to earn one Ashe’s Deadlock Challenge spray, two more hours to earn two additional sprays, and two final hours to earn three additional sprays, totaling to six sprays. All channels streaming in the Twitch Overwatch game category will be eligible to provide Drops.

Twitch has updated how drops work on their end, and this is the first time Overwatch will be utilizing Twitch Drops since these changes were put into place. Here is what you need to know:

  • You’ll now be able to see your watch time progress towards any given drop.
  • You will no longer receive drop rewards automatically. You must instead claim the drop on the channel you’re watching or in the Drops Inventory menu on Twitch within the first 24 hours of earning it.
  • You will need to claim your first Twitch Drop reward BEFORE you can earn progress towards the second and will need to claim the second Twitch Drop before you can earn progress towards the third.
  • Twitch users can now earn rewards before linking their Battle.net account to Twitch. Rewards will expire 7 days after they’ve been claimed if a Battle.net account has not been linked.

It can take up to ~30 minutes to receive your reward(s) in-game after claiming. To be eligible for rewards, you must first link your Battle.net account to your Twitch account. Visit the Twitch Connections page to log in and complete the link now.

Each Ashe Deadlock Challenge sprays by watching Overwatch on Twitch during the event.

When Ashe is arrested yet again, this time on the morning of her high school graduation, her aloof, old-money parents decide to disinherit her from the family fortune. To steal back what’s rightfully hers, Ashe teams up with her omnic butler, B.O.B., and local ruffian Jesse McCree for a series of heists, catapulting the trio into a game of fast money and dangerous alliances.
