Stage 2 of Overwatch League's inaugural season is finally here and with it comes a new challenge for our Overwatch coverage team. If you watch Around The Hoot, the Overwatch League podcast presented by EGN, you're very familiar with the writers weekly match predictions. For any newcomers, our Overwatch writers: Liam Craffey, Wyatt Donigan, Travis Elliott, Christian Kutlik, Steven Nguyen and Noah Waltzer, make their predictions for the week's upcoming matches and announce them during the show on Wednesdays before the OWL Pre-show. Every week this page will be updated with the results of the previous week and the picks for the upcoming week. At the end of Stage 2, we will crown a winner, with plenty of bragging rights to go along with the crown.

A couple notes on the rankings:

Writers are identified in the table by their first and last initial
Correct picks will remain unchanged
~~Incorrect picks will be marked like this~~

Without further ado, here are the picks!
