Overwatch became a sensation upon its release back in May of 2016, and was even highly respected back when the Beta was released — gaining a large following even before the full release of the game. Sadly, not everyone who plays Overwatch is a professional, and could use some hints and tips on how to improve their skills on the game.
Luckily for us, the YouTube community had given us a chance to expand our skillset, while giving us hints on how to choose mains, and when to use our ultimate to get “Play of the Game!”
But who are these YouTubers?
10. Unit Lost – Great British Gaming

9. Overwatch Central
Overwatch Central is a channel based solely around Overwatch, and has more than one member on the channel. Most of the time, Overwatch Central lays out the map and tells you which areas are good for Attack and Defend, while also showing some some placements for teammates.
