Since Warzone\u2019s jump to the Pacific in December, there\u2019s no denying interest in the once-thriving title has been on a decline. From overall hours watched to the number of Twitch stars engaging with the title, almost all viewership statistics have halved across 2022 according to data on SullyGnome. Whether it\u2019s the heavily-criticized Caldera map, performance issues, or various game-breaking bugs, players have been fleeing in recent months and so too have many of the most popular content creators. While an average day during Warzone\u2019s peak would have seen the likes of NICKMERCS, DrDisrespect, TimTheTatman, and plenty others all live on Twitch, most have since moved on, only dipping their toes back in on the odd occasion. Swagg, the biggest name still consistently streaming Warzone today, doesn\u2019t have any plans to follow the trend though. There\u2019s a key reason why: He still \u201cloves\u201d the Warzone grind. \u201cPeople say [Warzone] is bad,\u201d Swagg acknowledged at the start of his July 23 YouTube upload. From the state of the game in Season 4 to the never-ending struggle against cheaters, \u201ceveryone\u201d is advising him to \u201cuninstall\u201d for various reasons he explained. Comments across social media are frequently asking him to \u201cstop playing Warzone\u201d and follow in the footsteps of other top streamers. Though while he certainly has his gripes, the passion hasn\u2019t been stamped out just yet for Swagg. \u201cI still love Warzone,\u201d he said in the comments on his video. Expanding on why, he pointed towards one particular high-kill win as the reason. Dominating Caldera with members of FaZe Clan\u2019s Nuke Squad and Cloakzy, they combined for 71 kills in total, wiping out more than half of the lobby by themselves. It\u2019s games like that, where he\u2019s on form cruising through the map while chasing records, that keeps Swagg coming back to this day. Even if the ideal lobbies are few and far between, it\u2019s the hunt for personal bests and global records that keeps him motivated. How long that motivation will last is anyone\u2019s guess, but Swagg doesn\u2019t seem eager to part ways with Warzone anytime soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Swagg still \u201cloves\u201d Warzone despite calls for him to uninstall in Season 4 Activision \/ YouTube: SwaggDespite Warzone\u2019s relatively quiet stretch ahead of Modern Warfare 2, CoD veteran Swagg refuses to abandon the Battle Royale as he still has \u201clove\u201d for the game even with calls for him to uninstall and play something else.
