It was recently confirmed that the powerful, meta-shifting Sigma, will indeed be enabled for the 2019 Overwatch League Grand Finals at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. After grueling playoff runs, we now know that it will be the Vancouver Titans facing off against the San Francisco Shock to crown the overall winner.
