How To Get Overwatch 2 League Tokens

Skins in Overwatch 2 play a huge part in the enjoyment of the game. This is exactly why people start looking for ways to collect League Tokens after finding out that so many high quality skins can only be purchased with that specific currency. Fortunately, we know how you can get League Tokens, and you won't even have to spend a single cent of your own money.

The only way to get Overwatch 2 League Tokens is by watching official Overwatch 2 events. To be specific, you have to live stream official Overwatch League matches to be rewarded with League tokens. To do this, you have to link your Overwatch 2 account with either YouTube or Twitch and live stream the events, with players earning five League Tokens for every hour of live Overwatch League matches watched on eligible platforms.

Without further ado, here's how you can get Overwatch 2 League Tokens.

Earning Overwatch League Tokens

Before you dive into collecting Overwatch League Tokens, it's essential to understand how you can earn them. You earn five League Tokens per hour for every hour of an approved event or video that you watch. These tokens can add up quickly, allowing you to unlock your favorite team's skins and other exclusive items.

What Are Overwatch League Tokens Used For

The primary use of League Tokens is to purchase exclusive in-game items from the Overwatch League Shop. These items include team skins, player skins, and other team-themed cosmetics. By using your tokens wisely, you can customize your heroes to proudly represent your favorite Overwatch League team

It's important to note that Overwatch League team skins and other related items in the shop are often available for a limited time. This adds an element of exclusivity to these cosmetics, making them even more desirable for dedicated fans. League Tokens enable you to seize the opportunity and acquire these time-sensitive items before they're gone.

Connecting Your Battle.net Account

To begin collecting Overwatch League drops from YouTube and Twitch live streams, you must connect your Battle.net account to your YouTube or Twitch account. Fortunately, we're here with a step by step guide for both platforms.

Before we start, however, it's important to note that to redeem League Tokens for in-game items, viewers must have a valid Overwatch game license. Xbox One, Steam, PlayStation4, or Nintendo Switch players must have their Xbox Live, Steam, PlayStation Network, or Nintendo account linked to their Battle.net account as well.

In the Settings menu on the left-hand side, you'll find an option labeled "Connected apps." Click on it to proceed.

Step 4: Find "Battle.net" and Connect

Among the list of Connected apps, locate "Battle.net." To establish the connection between your accounts, click on the "Connect" button located to the right of it.

Step 5: Complete the Security Check

A window will pop up, asking if you want to connect accounts and providing details about the information that will be shared. Click the blue "Connect" button to continue.

Step 6: Log into Your Battle.net Account

You will be prompted to log into your Battle.net account. If you haven't already, you may need to enable 2-Factor Authentication for your Battle.net account to perform this Security Check.

Step 7: Verify Your Account

Choose a method for verifying your account from the dropdown menu and click "Submit." Depending on your selection, you will receive a security code via email or text message.

Step 8: Enter the Security Code

Check your email or phone for the security code and enter it on the verification screen. Click "Submit" to proceed.

The next pop-up will ask for permission to let Google access information in your Battle.net account. Ensure that you've checked the box labeled "Your Battle.net Account ID (Required)," and then click "Submit."

If the connection was successful, you should see a pop-up window that says "Accounts connected," confirming that your Battle.net account is now linked to your YouTube account.

Connecting Your Battle.Net Account With Twitch

If you thought the process of connecting your Battle.Net account with your YouTube account was long then don't worry. Linking your Battle.Net and Twitch accounts is a comparatively much easier process.

Step 1: Log into Your Battle.net Account

Start by opening your web browser and logging into your Battle.net account using your credentials.

Step 2: Access the Connected Accounts Page

Once you're logged in, navigate to your account settings. Scroll down the list of Connected Accounts until you find "Twitch." If it says "Not Connected," you're on the right track.

Step 3: Initiate the Connection

To begin the connection process, click the blue "+Connect" button located on the right-hand side of the "Twitch" section.

Step 4: Continue the Process

After clicking "+Connect," you'll be directed to a new page or pop-up window. On this page, click "Continue" to proceed with the connection.

Step 5: Twitch Authorization

If you're already logged into your Twitch account, you'll be redirected to the Twitch authorization page. Here, you need to click "Authorize" to grant the necessary permissions for the connection.

Step 6: Completion

Once you've completed the authorization process, you should receive confirmation that your Battle.net account is now linked to your Twitch account. This means you're all set to start earning Overwatch League Tokens while watching Overwatch League content on Twitch.

Troubleshooting and Common Issues

While connecting your accounts is generally straightforward, here are some common issues and solutions:

• If you want to connect your Twitch account instead of YouTube, you can do so through the Battle.net Connections page on the Battle.net website.
• Make sure you're logged into your connected Twitch or YouTube account while watching an event to receive credit for your viewership.
• Some browser plug-ins can prevent Twitch or YouTube from recording your presence during a stream. Temporarily disable these plug-ins to ensure you're eligible for rewards.
• You may not receive a notification for rewards earned on YouTube, but rest assured, the rewards are correctly provided in-game.
• If you've unlinked a Twitch account from your Battle.net account, you'll need to wait for 7 days before linking a new one.
• Resetting your Twitch password can break existing links to Battle.net. If this happens, follow the steps above to unlink and relink your Twitch account to your Battle.net account.
