Fans have been arguing for years about who’s better at Call of Duty, CoD League pros or Warzone creators? Now, we should finally get an answer in the “Who is the King” Series, and the prize will be a big bag of cash and bragging rights for all time.
The Who is the King $150,000 Series features CDL pros teaming up with and against Warzone streamers in both Warzone and Modern Warfare 2 competitive matches over the course of two weeks.
If you’ve ever wanted to see CDL studs like Shotzzy and Arcitys take on Warzone superstars like DiazBiffle or Almxnd, this will be your chance to see them go head-to-head in both battle royale and CDL competition.
Here’s how and when to tune in for the star-studded CoD event.
