Overwatch League: How To Link Your YouTube Account To Battle.Net
You can earn free in-game rewards by watching the Overwatch League on YouTube. But in order to receive these rewards, it is vital that you link your accounts first, so that your rewards can be transferred from YouTube to your Battle.Net account properly. Don't worry, it's super easy, and we will tell you exactly how to do it:
- Create a Battle.Net account (most of you will already have one)
- Go to YouTube's “account sharing” site
- Scroll down to Battle.Net and click on “connect” and then “continue”
- Login with your Battle.Net email and password
- Approve the login on your phone if you're using two-factor authentication
- When it says “Permission Required”, click on “allow”
- Now your accounts should be linked, congrats!
After watching several hours of Overwatch League and having collected the rewards, you must redeem them on YouTube so that they can be transferred to your Battle.Net account. Redeem all rewards by December 31, otherwise they will be invalid.

I personally like to play Overwatch 2 tucked into a big blanket and wearing my favorite pair of sweatpants. They are black and have this really cool Overwatch design. Besides that, they're super high quality and are super cozy, perfect for a proper game night. My Overwatch sweatpants are on sale at Amazon right now, if you wanna check them out (I'm even wearing them right now lol).
