**Before** **Since Overwatch 2 Season 20**, the Top 500, which used to be the highest rank in Competitive play, has been removed and replaced by the Challenger rank. This change has upset a large part of the Overwatch community because it is no longer a rank you reach but a rank you earn under specific conditions, and one that you can also lose, **Requirements to become a Challenger**.  **After** **you must:** **-** Be at least Diamond rank. **-** Have 4,000 Challenger Score points. Challenger Points are earned by playing Competitive matches. The higher your rank, the more points you gain per win. **Example:** -A Grandmaster player earns around 200 points per match, -A Diamond player earns around 60 points per match. Only the 500 players with the highest Challenger Score can become Challengers,This creates a Top 500 system that is very different from previous seasons, as it is now based more on playtime and consistency rather than purely on rank skill.
