The Baka Bros — popular Warzone streamers Repullze, LuckyChamu, and DiazBiffle — just hosted a $30,000 launch tournament in Modern Warfare 2 featuring a mix of top CDL pros alongside Warzone competitors and content creators. While it was Team Methodz who ultimately came out on top after a shocking lower bracket run, here’s a full look back at the event.

Each year, a number of big kickoff tournaments are hosted when a new Call of Duty game launches. In recent years, this has meant bringing together top CDL and Warzone pros, playing with one another, attempting to assert their dominance in the earliest stages of the competitive season.

This Modern Warfare 2 tournament was Search & Destroy only, meaning CDL pros didn’t get to outshine their opponents on the less familiar respawn modes in Hardpoint or Control. With that in mind, it was ultimately Methodz, Nero, Parasite, Destroy who proved too good for the competition on the day, winning eight matches in a row to run the lower bracket gauntlet and take down Team Simp in the finals. But if you missed any of the action, we’ve got you covered below.
