Overwatch's Control Maps Aren't Adjusting Skill Ratings Properly During Competitive Play

Think that Overwatch Competitive matches might be unfairly adjusting your skill rating? For once, you might actually be right. Yesterday, Game Director Jeff Kaplan posted the following message in a thread on the official forums about points being assigned incorrectly when playing on a Control map.

Last night, though, we uncovered a bug that is causing skill rating to not be adjusted properly in our Control Maps (Nepal, Lijiang Tower, Ilios). This bug is a top priority right now and we're hoping to have a fix ASAP.

Unfortunately, for now, all we can do is wait—or not play Control maps. In the meantime, if you do partake in Competitive Control matches, be aware that your skill rating may not be adjusted properly.
