Things are going to get heated at the new 100 Thieves compound thanks to a high-stakes UNO tournament being hosted by the esports organization.
If you’re looking for something other than the Super Bowl, perhaps you’ll want to give a $500k UNO tourney a look.
It’s being put on by 100 Thieves and will feature most of the content creators from the org, along with former FaZe Clan pro Dennis ‘Cloak’ Lepore, who was heavily involved in rumors of him joining the team leading up to this point.

This event is being called “the most savage & cut-throat” UNO tournament you’ve ever seen, so it sounds like it’ll be worth checking out based on that alone.
Participants include Nadeshot, Valkyrae, Cloak, Maven, Yassuo, CouRageJD, Castro, and all four members of The Mob.
The early favorite has to be Froste from The Mob since he has roots in the UNO scene. During a Twitch Rivals tournament in January, he was able to secure the victory, making him the only player who has earned money from the hit card game in a competitive format.

The winner of this event will even get their hands on a championship belt, so it’s not like the players are just going to roll over and let him win that easily.

UNO is a very unpredictable game, with the ability to swing in the other direction in the blink of an eye, so every player will have a decent chance going in.

How to watch the 100 Thieves Half Million Halftime Show
Watch live video from 100Thieves on www.twitch.tvFor anyone wanting to tune in for the chance to win some money, they will be able to do so on both 100 Thieves’ Twitch and YouTube channels.
While both CouRage and Valkyrae now exclusively stream on YouTube, Nadeshot and The Mob still stream on the Amazon-owned platform, so it’s not surprising to see it split like this.
Make sure you tune into the action beginning at 4 PM PST / 7 PM EST and see who comes out on top.
