The eighth season of competitive Overwatch begins in January, and Blizzard is making some big changes in preparation.
Scott Mercer, Principle Designer for Overwatch, announced on the Battle.net Forums changes coming to the game, which include limiting the maximum difference in Skill Rating (SR) between players, and eliminating Personal Performance Skill Rating adjustments for players at or above Diamond tier.
The first big change being made is limiting the maximum SR difference between players. This will result in players being matched with others that are closer to their skill level, with the goal of creating better match experiences for players at both ends of the skill spectrum.
