The Overwatch League season MVP has been named as New York Excelsior’s Seong-Hyun ‘Jjonak’ Bang, support player extraordinaire.

Jjonak was selected through a combination of an online fan vote and a poll of Overwatch League coaches, casters, analysts and media.

The support player earned 30 first-place vote and 117 points overall from the poll, easily beating second place Los Angeles Gladiators’ tank, Chan-Hyung ‘Fissure’ Baek, who received 58 overall points.

The New York Excelsior will face their first playoff opponent next week after a first-round bye. Overwatch League playoffs kicked off yesterday, and will be televised on ESPN, Disney and ABC in the USA.

Congratulations to Jjonak on the honour!

Overwatch is currently available on Windows PC, Xbox One and PS4.
