Getting started with NexusWatch
Website or desktop app, account, linking your profile and switching games — the first five minutes.

Website or desktop app?
The website shows every game page, the meta, counters, team analysis and patch notes, with no installation.
The desktop app adds what needs your PC: game detection by process name, the in-game overlay, your sessions and a dashboard built around your own profile.
Do I need an account?
No: game data, meta and counters are open to everyone. An account keeps your preferences, follows games you want to hear about and is needed for Premium.
Link your Overwatch profile
Enter your BattleTag in the app: NexusWatch reads your public career profile (rank, heroes, win rates). If your profile is private in the game, nothing can be shown — make it public in Overwatch's social settings.
The app keeps one snapshot of your public figures per day on this PC, so trends appear after a few days.
Switching games
The game selector in the sidebar opens each game's own pages. Overwatch is supported; VALORANT and League of Legends are a preview with clearly labelled demo data until Riot approves NexusWatch.
