What works
What makes a good Overwatch thumbnail?
The emblem is the brag
Bronze chevrons and the winged top rank emblem are the most recognisable thing in an Overwatch thumbnail. Put one big next to your hero and the video reads as a ranked video at a glance.
Show the gap
Day 1 vs day 7, bronze to the top, 1 vs 5. A split or an arrow tells the whole story before anyone reads the title.
One hero, one weapon
The thumbnails that do well show one hero big, holding the thing they are known for, on a bright sunny map or a clean colour.
Short, fat words
BRONZE, AIM GAP, 1 VS 5. One to three words in heavy letters with a thick outline, readable on a phone.

Are these Overwatch thumbnail templates free?+
Opening a template is free. You get 90 free credits on signup with no card, enough to make and edit your first thumbnails.

Yes. Add a screenshot of your hero or skin as a Character and it goes into the scene in place of the grey stand-in.

No. Each layout is a new picture made with a grey stand-in player, built from the patterns top Overwatch thumbnails share, not a copy of any one of them. Overwatch is a game by Blizzard Entertainment.
