However, 2019 has been a turbulent year for the organization in and out of game, and it seems that things may have gotten worse for the them and their European lineup. What\u2019s going on with Red Reserve\u2019s team house? Red Reserve\u2019s Call of Duty team were based in the United Kingdom as they competed in World War II, but moved to Las Vegas, Nevada in the United States ahead of the Black Ops 4 season. The entirety of the team have been living in their Las Vegas teamhouse when not taking part in the CWL Pro League in Columbus, but it appears that this will no longer be the case according to player Trei \u2018Zer0\u2019 Morris. On Friday, April 5, Zer0 tweeted: \u201cBeen told by the team owner to leave the house we are staying in, because they couldn\u2019t pay for it. I don\u2019t know how or why we are in this situation. I guess we\u2019ll see what the streets of Las Vegas are saying.\u201d Been told by the Red owner to leave the house we are staying in, because they couldnt pay for it, idk how or why we are in this situation or how ive even been able to keep it under wraps, guess we\u2019ll see what the streets of las vegas are saying. \u2014 treiboi carti (@TreiZer0) April 5, 2019 Rated claims Red Reserve owe money Rhys \u2019Rated\u2019 Price went on to accuse the organization of failing to pay the players\u2019 salaries for a \u201ccouple months,\u201d and also claimed that each player is owed $40,000 in prize money that has yet to be paid. Hasn\u2019t paid us salary in a couple months, owes us 40k prize money each.. I\u2019m waiting for the cameras to bust in &#038; tell us we\u2019ve been framed not to mention we all have entire set ups in the house. https:\/\/t.co\/OETZU9NQhA \u2014 Rhys Price (@Rated_COD) April 5, 2019 A member of Red Reserve also wrote that the organization hadn\u2019t paid staff since December. Staff haven\u2019t been paid since December either, it all needs to come out to be honest. \u2014 Joe Hayter (@Joe_inertia) April 5, 2019 Call of Duty caster Alan \u2018Bricey\u2019 Brice said that there were more problems within Red Reserve that have yet to be revealed, tweeting: \u201cThere is even more to this, by the way. [Zer0] is just being professional and trying to sort things out.\u201d \u201cIt really is a disgrace, disgusting behavior on the part of the owners who have mismanaged a situation so badly.\u201d There is even more to this btw. Trei is just being professional and trying to sort things out. It really is a disgrace, disgusting behaviour on the part of owners who have mismanaged a situation so badly. https:\/\/t.co\/8PAIdV3MIE \u2014 Brice (@Bricetacular) April 5, 2019 The Call of Duty community steps in to help the players Following reports that the Red Reserve players had been asked to leave their team house, many members of the pro community reach out to offer any and all help they could muster.

Red Reserve appeared to be in trouble back in February, when a number of staff and esports teams left the organization amid rumors of issues at the team. Since then, the team has continued to compete in the CWL Pro League, but on April 1, a number of Red Reserve Call of Duty players announced they were now restricted free agents, and searching for a new organization to compete for.
