Code Red Warzone Winners
In the end, HusKerrs and Newbz came out on top and took home the top prize of $10,000. Despite the internet trying to thwart him, HusKerrs landed an impressive 407 kills (average of 18 per match) and 7.40 K/D. Newbz slew 388 total opponents, with an average of 17 per match, and ended with a K/D of 7.32. It turns out this was the first tournament win for HusKerrs and Newbz as team TBE, making this hard-earned win all the sweeter.
Second place and $6,000 went to JoeWo and stukawaki. This dynamic duo killed a total of 205 and 204 players, respectively, and was a force to be reckoned with!
