Took a break from playing overwatch for a few hours, come back on and all my characters are locked again. I didn’t have this issue when my account merged. And when they merged only issue I had was my golden weapons not transferring over

Started playing overwatch 2 since the 5th and I’ve been playing it a lot. Problems, though: the goddamn queues, why are my characters locked off I’ve had this game years, and every 20 sec all the heroes fly in diff directions and makes it impossible to track enemies

@BlizzardCS I can't play some heroes in Overwatch 2 because they're locked. Is this a known issue? I was able to play ALL HEROES up until yesterday. My ticket number is: 87265228

Completely locked out of Hero’s. Overwatch Hot-fix somehow managed to ADD a new problem; hope this gets patched ASAP. Seeing other people experiencing the same problem as well
