Heart surgery derailed his Overwatch League dream. Then he caught covid-19.

Just before the third season of the Overwatch League (OWL) began, O'Neill went to see the doctor during a visit back home. He'd been experiencing tightness in his chest, to the point that a 20-minute scrimmage would leave O'Neill out of breath. At first, he thought it might be asthma, or the stress of playing for the Eternal. After earning a spot in the OWL, you have to fight for it, as teams constantly retool rosters for the best chance to win the Grand Finals and the millions handed out in prize money each season.
