Their 91\u201376 victory over Ninja\u2019s squad in the final wasn\u2019t secured until the final game though.

A disastrous second run saw all three of them wiped out in the Gulag, however, including a heart-stopping loss in the shotgun round for Albralelie. The team ended on just 75 kills. JoshOG\u2019 squad were able to capitalize, marching on to 91 eliminations. The tournament was, unfortunately, also plagued with a few controversies \u2014 fourth-placed Vikkstar123, ProSyndicate, and Itz_WarZ were bumped out in the semis after coming face to face with a number of Warzone hackers. KEEMSTAR jumped on Twitter to address the issue mid-tournament, apologizing that they couldn\u2019t reset the bracket, and demanding Infinity Ward investigate. \u201cHackers have taken over Warzone. Unfortunately, we don\u2019t have the manpower to investigate each case when a player is killed by a hacker. So we can\u2019t grant those teams a restart. COD needs to fix this or Warzone will die in a week,\u201d he said. Clearly hackers have taken over Warzone. Unfortunately we simply don\u2019t have the manpower to investigate each individual case when a player is killed by a hacker. So we can\u2019t grant those teams a restart. COD needs to fix this or Warzone will die in a week.
