JKap is one of the few men to have lifted Call of Duty\u2019s richest prize, securing the Advanced Warfare World Championship alongside James \u2018Clayster\u2019 Eubanks, Dillon \u2018Attach\u2019 Price and James \u2018Crowder\u2019 Crowder as part of Denial Esports. The team were classed as underdogs at the time, with few thinking they could go all the way in the esports\u2019 biggest tournament, but managed to beat another surprise finalist in Team Revenge to secure victory the $400,000 winner\u2019s purse. JKap wishes he hadn\u2019t won CoD Championships with Denial For many, winning the World Championship in your chosen field is the pinnacle of their career, and while it\u2019s unlikely that JKap wishes he hadn\u2019t won the tournament at all, he has expressed regret in terms of the organization he was representing at the time. In a tweet posted on May 15, JKap stated: \u201cIn hindsight, I wish we had won that world championship for any other [organization] but Denial. The [organization] would\u2019ve fallen off to well deserved irrelevancy long ago if not for that.\u201d In hindsight, I wish we had won that world championship for any other org but Denial. The org would\u2019ve fallen off to well deserved irrelevancy long ago if not for that. Then they had the audacity to use it in a roast against ELV (I think) earlier this year as if they earned it \u2014 Jordan Kaplan (@JKap415) May 15, 2019 Teammate Attach shared the sentiment, replying: \u201cI think us [four] can all agree on that. We made people think Denial was a top tier organization. To see everything they\u2019ve done [and] been doing for years is terrible.\u201d I think us 4 can all agree on that, We made people think Denial was a top tier organization. To see everything they&#8217;ve done\/been doing for years is terrible. \u2014 Dillon Price (@Attach) May 15, 2019 Players and organizations claim lack of payment from Denial Overtime Esports, the team who owned the spot that Denial Esports purchased to enter the CWL Pro League, have claimed that they are still owed \u201cseveral tens of thousands of euros\u201d from the sale which took place on January 28. Nathan \u2018Natshay\u2019 Dupuis, who played for Denial from the time of the sale up until April 19, has also stated that he has yet to be paid any salary by the organization. This isn\u2019t the first time that Denial have been in trouble for apparently failing to make payments. When current CEO Zachary Smith took over Denial, he paid off debts that had been outstanding from the organization\u2019s previous owners, who had not paid salaries to players. Following the statements released by Overtime and Natshay, Smith responded by saying that the reason Natshay failed to receive any payments from Denial was due to \u201cexisting immigration laws regarding work authorization and visas,\u201d and in a statement, announced that he was stepping away from running the day-to-day operations of Denial. Strategic Advisor Jerry Nguyen will be promoted to Chief Strategy Officer in his stead, and will take over control of operations at the controversial org.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>JKap wishes he never won CoD World Championships under Denial Esports, here\u2019s why ActivisionProfessional CoD player Jordan \u2018Call of Duty Advanced Warfare World Championship had been won for \u201cany other\u201d organization.
