Introduction to Overwatch Betting at GGBet

Overwatch is a multiplayer first-person shooter that made its debut in 2016. Blizzard, its developer, however, loves referring to it as ‘Hero Shooter’ thanks to its gameplay that consists of lots of characters that you can switch through the game, a concept that proved to be a master stroke making the game’s popularity hit the roof.

Two teams of six players each play the game, and the goal is to reach a certain point on the map before the other team does. The first team to achieve this wins the map, but the number of maps determines the game-winner won.

Overwatch isn’t just a game; it's a community of players and their fans, with their numbers growing daily. You, too, can join this growing movement, enjoy Overwatch games, and make money by predicting occurrences in the games. For an Overwatch betting experience like no other, sign up at GGBet and join millions of other Overwatch enthusiasts in betting on Overwatch matches the GGBet way.

Types of Overwatch Bets on GGBet

At GGBet, we have a variety of Overwatch bets that you can explore. We, however, always encourage our players to first have a good understanding of the game before placing bets to avoid guesswork. Below are some of the popular markets you should consider.

Map Winner

In the bet, you pick who you think will come out as the winner on a specific map.

Game Winner

This bet is almost similar to the map winner bet, except that here, you predict the overall winner in a game and not a map.

Maps Total

Here, you predict the total number of maps that a team will win. You need a good understanding of the teams playing to have a higher probability of making a correct prediction on this bet.

First Kill

On this bet, you predict who will draw the first blood or make the first kill. It's an interesting bet as you get to know whether you have won or lost early in the game compared to other bets, where you have to wait until the game is over.

Over/Under Bets

In these bets, you predict whether a specific occurrence will happen over or under a specific threshold. It can be, for example, the total number of maps played.
