Twitch Rivals $75K Warzone Showdown: Results & Recap

With only five opportunities to secure high-kill games and push for the juiciest point multipliers, all teams came out looking hot in game one. Competition was immediately fierce with Warzone’s top pros running into one another in the high-stakes custom lobbies.

While FaZe’s Kalei Renay hit some disgusting snipes in the first lobby, it was Tfue’s team who actually secured the round one victory. From that point on, the standings were wide open for any Trio to cruise to the top.

Game wins from TeePee and LuckyChamu helped push their respective Trios up the rankings, but it was an extraordinary 50 point Game 4 from Team Swagg that secure first place before the final showdown.

While TeeP kept things close down to the very last gunfight in Game 5, it was ultimately Team Swagg that walked away with the $15,000 win.
