$15K Warzone Cracked Creator: Results & Recap
As one of the first major Warzone events of the year, pros and streamers alike jumped into TST’s latest Cracked Creator tourney. There was nothing but good vibes from those behind the camera 16 Duos battled through a stacked double-elim bracket.
For some, it was a quick run through Caldera as certain teams like Diesel & Rated failed to find even a single map win. Big names like DrDisrespect along with TST’s very own Blake and Jorge all found themselves out of the running early on.

Meanwhile, it was veteran competitors in BobbyPoff & Fifakill alongside Smixie & Scummn that pushed all the way through to the grand finals.
A lopsided clash at the end of the day saw the latter duo winning four maps in a row to reset the bracket and take out the top spot.

$15K Warzone Cracked Creator: Format
The Cracked Creator Series has always been a little different from the standard Warzone event. Unique Duos are forced together as content creators and competitive players are paired up.
Even with that in mind, we still saw plenty of familiar teams as the likes of Doc & ZLaner and Smixie & Scummn queued up together again.
Despite Caldera’s numerous issues, as many pros favor Rebirth Island instead, the latest Cracked Creators tourney still took place on the newest Warzone map. A few key restrictions were locked in before teams loaded up, however.
