Problem with Overwatch League Tokens on Steam version

[4krysia]

Can we earn Overwatch League Tokens by playing on Steam version? Because I did spend alot of time this weekend on watching overwatch league streams, yet when I get on Overwatch I didnt get any notifications that I earn any tokens? It's the same value as before...

I'm at 340 so far. I was under the impression that the tokens are bound to your battlenet account, not the platform itself, so it's not like they're just "wasted". But if it doesn't work when I try it, then I could reinstall the BN app and see if it grants them there

Ya I just think theres some bug in the system that isn't noticing the tokens granted via steam, people have said they log on the bnet client and then they are granted them, I'm too lazy to reinstall it on bnet nor do I have the space atm, so I'll just wait til they fix it.

This isn't the first time its happened with OWL during the grand tourny last year it took FOREVER for the watch rewards to even show up, they always go back and grant the tokens tho so if you did watch it'll show up when they fix it.

Despite what the people say about Blizzard they have never let me down in customer service or granting me what I earned

I downloaded Overwatch on Battle net and I got my tokens there, so I guess you guys are right and Steam version is bugged with tokens atm. Thanks for everyone who decided to say anything regarding this topic, and let's hope Blizzard will repair this bug.

They will, they always do and I’m happy you got your tokens! Here’s hoping the next OWL skin is a Cassidy/soldier one!

Well I still have plenty for now so I'm not really worried at the moment. Most of the OWL skins suck anyway, they're just team-themed recolors, and I don't actually WATCH or care about any of the league matches, I just play the streams on my phone and ignore them.

I'm still mad I missed out on alien zarya, even knowing why it was removed in the first place.

I only buy the originals like the alien Zarya, I haven’t missed one yet and they were all free thanks to OWL but don’t tell blizzard I just minimize the tab! 🤫

Really, it's pretty dumb to expect any of us to want to actually watch upwards of SIXTY HOURS of league streams just to get a single skin.
I work weekends, so I barely have time to even play them in the background, let alone actually watch them.

So is it confirmed that I can earn them if I log in through battle.net? Because mine isn't dropping either and I need to know before installing another 35GB.

As far as I know, your "unclaimed" tokens never expire. And the game is free, so you can log in on any console just to claim tokens, if you're really in a hurry.
