Even though other battle royales have taken off with regular competitive events, Warzone hasn\u2019t quite matched its rivals. Members of the community, and the Call of Duty devs, have held a number of tournaments over the last few years, but there isn\u2019t a fully-fledged league like the others. In the case of Warzone 2, even though it\u2019s been out for a few months, there haven\u2019t been too many big events. That comes as a surprise to NICKMERCS, who is eager to see more Warzone events being held, especially those that can expose anyone who is cheating and their \u201cweird\u201d behavior. NICKMERCS wants more Warzone 2 events to expose \u201cweird\u201d cheaters It was something the FaZe Clan star flagged in his February 22 video, as he noted that he was \u201csurprised\u201d by the lack of in-person tournaments for Warzone 2. \u201cI\u2019m surprised Call of Duty didn\u2019t launch a bunch of events in person and battle royale tournaments. They could have it coincide with the CDL, they do like in-person battle royale tournaments. You\u2019d have to qualify for it, or you can make it invite-only if you want, but I\u2019m surprised they didn\u2019t do that,\u201d Nick said. \u201cToo many cheaters? That\u2019s why you do it on LAN, they can\u2019t cheat. You can\u2019t do online, I agree with you. There is too many scammers and cheaters and weird people. At the end of the day, there is a lot of content around that, like people that are popular to be cheating, people think they\u2019re cheating, you find out real quick if they\u2019re full of s*it or not. I think that could work, but any kind of competitive online in this game is real stinky.\u201d Timestamp of 11:24 Nick also added that more in-person events are needed because of the \u201cweird\u201d behavior in the community, and that\u2019d be sure to weed a lot of it out. Even the World Series of Warzone, which has been the biggest Warzone event to date, was held online, so it remains to be seen if there are plans to take it to LAN.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NICKMERCS calls for more Warzone 2 LAN events to expose \u201cweird\u201d cheaters NICKMERCS\/ActivisionStreaming star Nick \u2018NICKMERCS\u2019 Kolcheff wants Call of Duty to run a few Warzone 2 LAN events to weed out cheaters and \u201cweird\u201d behavior.
