Violet has joined the Houston Outlaws as a partnered streamer and will be the first openly non-binary top-ranked Overwatch player represented by a brand.
Violet or sometimes known as her Twitter handle, VibinWithViolet, will look to bring their technical prowess to the forefront as they managed to not only get four different accounts to Top 500, but by getting the top four spots all by maining one hero: Brigitte.
Please help us welcome @VibinWithViolet to the Outlaws as our newest streamer!

Violet Overwatch: Violet Joins the Houston Outlaws as Partnered Streamer
It will be fun to watch how Violet continues to adapt as Blizzard looks to nerf tanks and barriers to help expand the meta. The 2-2-2 role lock was supposed to bring back the importance of DPS characters and players, but the power of barriers did little for hitscan heroes.
Hopefully, 2020 will change that and we'll see a rise in 6k Widowmakers.
This is far from the first move the Houston Outlaws made during the offseason. The team added a new head coach in Harsha Bandi, the brand itself was purchased by Beasley Media Group, and added off-tank Tae-hong "MekO" Kim.
The Houston Outlaws are looking to dominate in 2020, both in the Overwatch League and the streaming community.
