Hello,

Thank you for the feedback ! It looks like there was a global issue that lasted a few hours. I believe it occurred because my server generated excessive traffic to overwatch.blizzard.com, which led to a temporary ban 🙈. I've resolved the issue for now by disabling the background cache refresh system to limit traffic.

Since I hadn’t anticipated such high traffic when designing the system, I'll be updating it to make it more resilient before reactivating it 👍.
