Any High level players in the game "Overwatch" use 60Hz monitors ?

As long as Overwatch continues to use a 60Hz tickrate the whole argument remains moot.

Nope. Average human reaction is not 10 milliseconds but 0,3 seconds (300 milliseconds). The "quickest" individuals can react twice as fast, meaning 0,15 seconds (150 milliseconds), so 144 Hz monitor will certainly not increase your skills. Even the very best players need 1-1,5 seconds to make a good aim, so a couple of milliseconds that you might get from the higher refresh rate will not make any difference. Besides, you must also count a luck factor (eg. noob's lucky headshot that ended your killing spree) and that has nothing to do with hardware or skills.

It will make a noticeable difference to the player. Trying to work it out like that with reaction times gives you a false picture.

One can easily feel the difference between a 60Hz refresh and a 144Hz one, with the former feeling noticeably laggy. This most certainly helps the gamer to aim and fire more quickly and accurately. I know from experience with my 144Hz monitors.

It sounds like you've never gamed on a monitor with greater than 60Hz refresh. I see that your current monitor is an IPS 60Hz model. Nice colours, but too laggy for proper gaming.

Note that for this to be most effective, the computer must be fast enough able to render without dropping any frames, otherwise stutter and lag result.
