Players must fight against their adversaries in a linear path where maneuverability will be the key to their success. Additionally, the developers have injected an element of excitement into the game mode, which highly tests players' teamwork and strategy-making abilities.

Hence, whether you’re a veteran or a new player, it might get a bit confusing while exploring this mode. Hence, this article will explain the newly introduced LTM in Overwatch 2 Season 10.

Clash mode in season 10 of Overwatch 2 may seem like the traditional capture point mode, but it’s not. Taking inspiration from the old Overwatch game mode dubbed Assault, the developers have made this mode more appealing by slightly tweaking the rules.

Players have to face their opponent on a mirrored map featuring five points, lying in a straight line. Moreover, players can choose any role of their choice as the Hero selection menu remains similar to open queue matches.

Initially, the main capture point lies in the center, and players have to fight against opponents to get a hold of it. Upon capturing the center point, they’ll gradually progress toward their opponent's territory to capture the point on that end. If failed, players have to capture the point on their territory by defending the point from the enemy team.

Both teams will act as attackers and defenders, similar to Push.
