With $75K on the line in one of the final tournaments set in Verdansk, players dropped in with their sights set on gold. After three grueling rounds of qualifiers, everyone was pushing for the top spot in the Main Event.

The entire event was derailed as admins investigated claims of hacking. Ahzvm cooperated every step of the way in attempt to prove his innocence. After 30 minutes of heated debate, no concrete evidence could be backed up so the admins made a final call.
Ahzvm was cleared to play for the remainder of the event and the last two maps got back underway shortly after.
Before long, the ultimate winners were crowned as Rivs2 & Destroy took home the lion’s share of the prize.

Qualifiers 3 was the final chance for Warzone’s top talent to secure a spot in The Last Dance. Just five more positions were up for grabs in this round, along with the usual $25,000, so once again, every single player came out swigning.
Carrying their momentum over from a huge $75,000 Twitch Rivals win just 24 hours prior, ItsEyeQew & Arrayyz managed to win the first map.
