The league was dying way before the Overwatch 2 shenanigans. Teams were bleeding money, there were a lot of controversies about players not getting paid, some controversies about casters literally getting ghosted and not being invited to the next event with no warning... Not to mention the best players all left Overwatch completely and went on to other E-sports games.

It's just sad at this point. Kill it. I think most teams would agree.
