A few days back, two new Overwatch League franchises, Toronto Defiant and Atlanta Reign unveiled their official names and colors. Many would point out how their decisions to go with red and black is akin to school kids copying each other's work without making it so obvious. But the similarities stop there.

So I sifted through facts and figures of the players and the teams. Surprise, surprise! S...
Two new cities. Two new franchises. Two new names. Two colors.

The team based out of Atlanta will b...

As we have anticipated in the Overwatch pro level scene, there will be some significant changes taking place for the second season of the Overwatch League. This is moreso now with the addition of eight new teams, alongside the fact that all teams will be based out of their home cities. The league recently released a plethora of information which w...
We are about a day away from Overwatch's Halloween Terror event for this year and over the weekend, Blizzard unveiled three more skins which will be available during the limited duration of said event. Widowmaker gets the weakest treatment of the three, with a spider-themed Epic skin which we doubt we'd be seeing a lot since there are tons of other...

Like clockwork, the heavily stacked French setup made quick work of everyone else, losing only two maps over the w...
While us at Kakuchopurei don't do cosplay, we do love our games and movie props, especially those 1:1 replicas which look good in hand, as well as on the shelf. So it came as no surprise that we are super stoked with Blizzard's unveiling of the Ultimate Genji Sword which is now available for pre-order. My blade is ready to be unleashed! Pre-orde...
The Overwatch League personnel merry go round continues as more team announcements and player movements were made.

The Bangkok Qualifier for the 2018 Overwatch World Cup kicks off today as six more teams vie for two playoff spots at this year's BlizzCon.
