Overwatch 2 Freezethaw Elimination tips
In Overwatch 2, Freezethaw Elimination features two teams of four duking it out against each other. Your team needs to win three rounds in total. When a player gets eliminated, then they're trapped in an ice block! In this game mode, once your hero wins a round, they cannot be chosen again.
You can select your heroes based on the different maps as well. These maps include Ecopoint: Antarctica, Necropolis, Castillo, Black Forest, and Ayutthaya. In our case, we got Ecopoint: Antarctica. Note that you can even choose Hazard in this game mode now! He's the game's newest tank hero.

Once you enter a match, work with your teammates to destroy the enemy team. Take the high ground, eliminate enemies within close proximity of each other, camp frozen enemies, and thaw your own frozen teammates when it's safe to do so. To unfreeze a teammate, go up to them and hold the "F" key.
Your team wins the round after freezing the entire enemy team. As mentioned, win three rounds in total to claim the overall match victory. Don't forget to endorse your crew for a job well done!
Playing this holiday game mode results in Battle Pass XP plus some progression in the Overwatch 2 Winter Wonderland 2024 event challenges.
