To help your team capture the flag I recommend characters that have good movement abilities such as Soldier 76, Tracer, Sombra, Lucio, Winston. As once you capture the flag you can quickly get away from the team base.
Good heroes to defend your flag from the enemy team seem to be Mei, Bastion, Roadhog, Soldier 76 and anyone with a good crowd control ability as the team will most likely attempt to capture the flag in your base as a group.

Has anyone had trouble getting this to unlock? I won a game 3 to 0 and it did not pop...possibly first day issues?
By GoGoActionTeam on 24 Jan 2017 21:41
@GoGoActionTeam yep just won a game 3-0 (I didn't even see the flag :P) and nothing.
PLus returning it seems to tricky they either out pace me or I get lit up :S
By laxasaurusrex on 24 Jan 2017 21:50
Same here. Won 3:0 twice, I even captured all three flags in a game, and nothing.
By wrog on 24 Jan 2017 22:08
I've won three games 3-0 and nothing. :/
By TheSwords57 on 24 Jan 2017 22:11
Same here, hopefully it'll get patched soon
By ThePuddingBird on 24 Jan 2017 22:18
Same lol all my team got it but me which was fun haha.
By Flezza on 24 Jan 2017 22:23
got 3-0 with Diva and no unlock
By BaronVoNewman on 24 Jan 2017 22:26
without sounding dumb if we've done it we'll just get it right? I only ask as every game I've played after the team I'm on has been stomped 0-3 :(
By laxasaurusrex on 24 Jan 2017 22:27
Also didn't get it, rest of my team did.
I'm less than pleased.
By Sakori on 24 Jan 2017 22:41
Restarted my Xbox, played a couple more games and finally got the achievement (my third 3:0 win). Maybe they fixed something or servers are more stable now. No idea.
By wrog on 24 Jan 2017 22:50
First game went 3-0, I capped 2 tracer got the other. No notification but checked unlocked achievements and it was there top of the list.
By PointySpred on 24 Jan 2017 23:08
Second win got it, just looks like it's buggy.
By Sakori on 24 Jan 2017 23:12
i seem to be having a trouble getting 3-0 the team it keeps putting me with don't know what defence is.
By FOV1863 on 24 Jan 2017 23:22
Have had two 3-0 victories so far & it hasn't popped.
By VGM 007 on 24 Jan 2017 23:24
Judging from other bug reports on reddit and the battle.net forums, it looks like if you're solo queue or party/group leader, it can prevent you from unlocking the achievement.
By CyanDeadEye on 25 Jan 2017 00:37
Captured the 3 flags by myself... no achiev, lmao
By Michel on 25 Jan 2017 00:50
Capture the flag is now in daily rotation, it's today's special mode. Got the other 3 CTF achievements no problem, this one didn't unlock for me on my first 3-0 so it still seems to be glitched. Won with hog and I captured 1 of the flags myself. Will try Zen now
By LordSmorc on 25 Oct 2019 19:40
Had to win 3-0 three times and it popped.
By Xûr on 20 Jan 2020 23:04
I just won a CTF Blitz 6-0 (Anniversary/New Year Event) and got the achievement
By Maqus on 22 May 2020 00:57
Even over two years after this achievement was released it is still broken. I won two games 3-0 and did not unlock the achievement.
By joebobpants on 15 Jul 2019 18:13
I was in a solo queue and got it. Didn't score once in the round I got it either.
By xPut Name Herex on 25 Jan 2017 02:01
i had 3 matches in a row, 3-0 with a group, i did some capping and didn't unlock. What failures...
By Ultamisia on 25 Jan 2017 02:08
Not sure if it matters or not, won 3-0, but entered the game while it was in play (but score was 0-0), didn't unlock after the victory. Only mentioning this cause this would not have any affect on other achievements but this one may be iffy atm.
By KurLyJeFFerson7 on 25 Jan 2017 02:22
add to the solution
play as sombra with her translocator and her cloak she can run collect the flag then recall back half way if not more towards your base to cap it, do that 2 more times and bam.
By NicoRobinsGhost on 25 Jan 2017 02:40
No unlock... Playing solo as D.VA with no caps myself.
By sjeemone on 25 Jan 2017 02:45
I second Mr Andy Dixon. I 3-0'd a game I scored a cap and didn't get it. Had a D.V.A. score all 3, including the last in overtime, and got it no problem.
By Sweet Rvng on 25 Jan 2017 03:50
Just got it. I captured 2 myself (as sombra), then D. Va capped the last flag.
By JACK O DIAMOND5 on 25 Jan 2017 05:25
I capped 2 as DVa, no unlock. WTF
By trollmeimasian on 25 Jan 2017 06:03
I won 3 (3-0) and nothing I'm pissed.
By Zeizurez on 25 Jan 2017 06:43
Just finishing winning 3-0 nothing
By Scrapcan on 25 Jan 2017 08:03
I canconfirm in order to get the achievement you must not cap yourself let the team to it i was a healer when i did this after countless attempts
By WeighingBrute on 25 Jan 2017 13:17
I didn't cap one objective in our 3-0 win amd nothing
By That Guy086 on 25 Jan 2017 13:33
Done this 4 times and nothing. What gives?
By FWR Georgie on 25 Jan 2017 14:38
Got it on third 3-0 win, played as D.Va the first two times and got some captures: no achievement. Played defensively as Symmetra and let others get the flag: achievement popped. Also, I was solo queuing/not in group since other people have mentioned that can affect whether or not the achievement pops. Good luck to everyone still trying!
By ThePuddingBird on 25 Jan 2017 15:54
I got it after the third time. Twice no luck with D.VA, other caracter and it unlocked
By sjeemone on 25 Jan 2017 17:00
You might want to check if you have the spray that is attached to the achievement. It should unlock if you have the spray unlocked.
By JACK O DIAMOND5 on 25 Jan 2017 21:11
3-0, played as D.Va but didn't get any captures. Even got play of the game. No achievement.
By Edward Hyena on 26 Jan 2017 06:21
Captured all 3 by myself as D.VA, but no achievement. It popped for my friend playing with me as Mercy. Blizzard y u hate D.VA?
Edit: I just got it. I didn't cap any flags, I wasn't host or solo queued, and I was playing as Roadhog.
By Keila on 26 Jan 2017 08:27
After 2 or 3, of winning 3-0 as D.Va, and no achievement, I tried Mercy. 3-0, no achievment, next game, played as Soldier, got 2 caps, and 3-0 and got achievement.
Maybe D.Va and Mercy glitched? I didnt make any caps as Mercy though...so idk?
By sirthomas420 on 26 Jan 2017 22:39
I played junkrat without any captures and no achievement; however, it works with Zenyatta
By Ink Splitters on 28 Jan 2017 00:48
If you're decent with Zenyatta, absolutely pick him and try to control the midground and follow your attackers from a safe distance as well. Tanks can make this mode hell, and Zenyatta is an answer to them.
It might just be my playstyle, but I was able to go 3-0 for three games in a row after having no luck previously as soon as I switched to him. CTF is all about getting in and out quickly, and tanks slow things down and control the field too much to go unchallenged.
By Killipo on 28 Jan 2017 02:10
Don't play Overwatch on XB1 but out of interest do these just discontinue after the seasons over??
That's awful, if so....100% will never be possible?
By NoHeroes94 on 10 Apr 2017 07:23
So now it is year of the dog. Anyone still getting buggy results on this achievement? I solo queued as Soldier 76, and we won 3-0. No achievement popped. So upset :(
By Solario32 on 09 Feb 2018 13:11
I went 3-0 twice in a row today, once as Lucio, once as Winston. I solo queued, don't know what the problem is.
By TheMegaShyGuy on 10 Feb 2018 01:20
Got it finally solo queuing as Orisa.
By Solario32 on 11 Feb 2018 02:37
Definitely buggy. Did it twice as Mei solo queue. First game I captured a flag, second I did not.
Not sure if there is any rhyme or reason to it or if it is just buggy.
By ShadowEchelon91 on 08 Jan 2019 22:49
From what I experienced (and what I've read elsewhere), this will only unlock if YOU do NOT score but your team wins 3:0. This is what worked for me (I just played Mercy for support) and it unlocked on my second try (my first attempt I scored).
By Dixxxxxon on 25 Jan 2017 01:45
I got it yesterday in a 4 man team. I was the leader, 3 of us got it, one didn't. 2 flags was capped by a random guy, and one was capped by one of my teammates who got it. He didn't got the recover flag too despite did it several times.
Just a note: since Genji and Tracer have insane mobility and most people can't track them with controllers, getting this usually depends on who has the better G/T in their team.
Also it seems teams got used to scoring a flag fast, then digging themselves in on their own point making 3-0 a very hard thing. So I suggest doing this as fast as you can. Most of the matches end in draw or 1-0.
By HUN playmore on 25 Jan 2017 09:15
I can confirm Marqus' comment. I earned it too on CTF Blitz, 6-0, and got the achievement to unlock.
