Since the rollout of Overwatch's overhaul at the start of each week, players have to make a choice: whose side are you on, Overwatch or Talon? It's part of the weekly Conquest event and sees players on each side complete small tasks for specific prizes. It's a cool concept, but it's made me come to the stark realisation that too many do not appreciate Winston.

Last week, Talon managed to edge out in front of Overwatch in the weekly conquest event and gain more support, 55.76% to 44.24% to be exact. I'll always back my boy Winston, as did others: "I'll die in peace knowing I never betrayed Winston, the rest of you will burn in hell." But not everyone knows what loyalty is.

But this week is a new week, and honestly, it's going well as Overwatch now has the lead over Talon with almost 60% of the playerbase supporting it. What is the secret, you ask? Did people finally come to their senses and remember everything Winston has done for us over the last 10 years? Maybe. But the new wave of support also probably has something to do with the fact that the new Overwatch-themed rewards are all just Jetpack Cat.
