\u2018Blacklisted\u2019 Warzone pro calls for Activision to let him compete again Activision\/Twitch: ClutchBelkA professional Warzone player who was allegedly blacklisted from tournaments after sexism accusations were levied against him has appealed to Activision to let him compete once again. In September 2021, Chandler \u2018ClutchBelk\u2019 Belk faced a litany of backlash after an interaction with New York Subliners Warzone star Swish, in which his mods and apparently even his mom made personal attacks against her. Since then, Belk has not been invited to play in Activision-sanctioned Warzone tournaments and he has been rumored to have been blacklisted entirely by the publisher. Now, he\u2019s asking for a second chance and to be let back in to get his playing career back underway. \u201cWould love a timeframe as to when I am eligible to compete again @Activision,\u201d he posted on April 12, directly asking the Call of Duty publisher. \u201c2nd chances are a beautiful thing in life. I\u2019ve bettered myself & want a chance at proving I will do better.\u201d Would love a timeframe as to when I am eligible to compete again @Activision 2nd chances are a beautiful thing in life.

She responded, saying that Belk blocked her and that \u201cI do believe in second chances and that people can better themselves and grow from their past but I never got a genuine apology or direct message.\u201d He has me blocked. I do believe in second chances and that people can better themselves and grow from their past but I never got a genuine apology or direct message, nothing \u2013 just a general apology to \u201cwhoever he offended\u201d but the ball is in his court \ud83e\udd37\ud83c\udffc\u2640\ufe0f \u2014 Em (@Swishem) April 13, 2022 Belk has competed in various Warzone tournaments since, but he has been absent from a number of big ones that he would possibly otherwise have played in. Whether Belk\u2019s removal from Warzone tournaments is a permanent thing, or if Activision has a timeframe in mind, remains to be seen. But he\u2019s definitely keen on getting back to playing and earning his stripes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
