Featuring Warzone icons HusKerrs, Vikkstar, and Tommey, alongside some of Call of Duty\u2019s biggest pros like the legendary Ian \u2018Crimsix\u2019 Porter and CDL MVP Anthony \u2018Shotzzy\u2019 Cuevas, the Jack Link\u2019s Invitational is set to light up Warzone over the next five weeks. Week 1 recap: Aydan and ZLaner dominate competition The Warzone King himself Aydan and his duo ZLaner decimated the competition in the first week of the Jack Link\u2019s Invitational. They breezed through the upper bracket, before facing off against BobbyPoff and Unrational in the Winner\u2019s Final. https:\/\/twitter.com\/DallasEmpire\/status\/1340101462173638659 After sending their rivals to the lower bracket, they had one hand of the trophy. By halfway through the grand final rematch though, they had two, with Aydan and ZLaner tearing up with the newly-released Mac-10 \u2014 so much so that Bobby and Unrational practically surrendered. The tournament is the first of three in the series, so be sure to stay tuned for future events. Week 1 Final placements Jack Link\u2019s Invitational: Official stream For fans looking to watch an overview of the action instead of an individual POV, you can watch the official Envy Gaming stream below. There\u2019s no set date on when Week 2\u2019s action will kick off, but we will keep you updated. Jack Link\u2019s Invitational: Series format & prizing Rather than a one-off tournament, Envy are capitalizing on what many expect will be renewed enthusiasm for Warzone by pushing their series into 2021. The format will feature three separate Warzone tournaments, each with a $30,000 prize pool. But competitors won\u2019t be the only ones making money, as the esport organization is launching a Fan Bracket Challenge with each tournament that gives out $5,000 to fans who correctly predict competitors\u2019 runs through the bracket. With $90,000 to the Warzone players and $15,000 to fans, that leaves an additional $45,000 to be doled out. That money will likely be awarded as part of numerous heretofore unscheduled Pro-Am tournaments, which will pit the best CoD players against popular celebrities from the sports, entertainment, and pop culture worlds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
