Scump, Karma, ACHES, and JKap share weird conspiracy theory about CWL London MLGSeveral prominent professional Call of Duty players have started to float around a curious conspiracy theory about the recently concluded CWL London major tournament. The $325,000 pro tournament at CWL London took place May 3-5, with 100 Thieves defeating eUnited 3-1 in the Grand Final to secure their first ever major championship. As usual, the Grand Final and some of the other major matches were all played on the main stage, and a few pro players were quick to notice a pattern of results based on which side of the stage the teams played on. Team Envy\u2019s Patrick \u2018ACHES\u2019 Price pointed out that all of the teams that played on the right side of the stage on Championship Sunday \u2013 Mindfreak in the Open Bracket Grand Final, 100 Thieves twice, and eUnited twice \u2013 all won by a combined map count of 18-2. \u201cSo 18-2, only maps won were Search and Destroy?\u201d he tweeted. \u201cPretty crazy coincidence. Never seen that in my playing days. Congrats 100 Thieves on the win!\u201d So 18-2. Only maps won were SnD? Pretty crazy coincidence. Never seen that in my playing days. Congrats 100T on the win! \u2014 Patrick Price (@ACHES) May 5, 2019 OpTic Gaming\u2019s Damon \u2018Karma\u2019 Barlow and Seth \u2018Scump\u2019 Abner also chipped in with their own experiences after getting swept in the final of both the Winners and Losers Brackets, against 100 Thieves and eUnited respectively. In both matches, OpTic sat on the left side of the stage, and in both matches, they failed to win a single map, all after going undefeated and dropping just three maps in their previous five matches of the tournament. Evil Geniuses\u2019 Jordan \u2018JKap\u2019 Kaplan, who has been around the CoD esports scene for a long time, revealed his theory that the game feels different sometimes. I don\u2019t understand why or how but I swear sometimes the game feels different. Been a believer in this since BO2 \u2014 Jordan Kaplan (@JKap415) May 5, 2019 Upon seeing this conspiracy theory discussed on Twitter, many longtime fans brought up the name of veteran competitor Adam \u2018KiLLa\u2019 Sloss, who was known to have brought up similar theories in the past. However, all this said, there is definitely the chance that the players were simply annoyed with not coming out on top at CWL London, and decided to vent their frustrations by trolling social media with a conspiracy theory about the tournament main stage. 100 Thieves win CWL London Fortunately, CWL London will not be remembered for any conspiracy theories, but rather for 100 Thieves having finally won their first major tournament as an esports organization. The team cemented themselves as arguably the best team currently in the CWL, knocking out rivals OpTic Gaming and eUnited to hoist the prestigious trophy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
