Why Play the Overwatch 2 Hero Mastery Missions?
The main reason to play these are to show how good you are at a hero and try to get the high score for bragging rights on their course. Or at least, this is what they want you to work towards. People certainly are so far and some fun videos have been made showing these courses off. They are essentially for speed runners.
Also, players who need to try and grind some Battle Pass XP are able to complete these and each some series progress on their BP. Lastly, you will earn new cosmetics, a new weapon charm, a souvenir and a Pachi-bot spray.
