After months of refining the competitive landscape of Verdansk, the Doritos Disruptor Series ft. Swagg, which was powered by Twitch Rivals, was a three-player custom lobby tournament that spanned six games and included a number of restrictions and rules.
With only a few weeks until the release of Call of Duty: Vanguard and a complete overhaul of Warzone, Twitch and Doritos put on an absolute show for the community.
Here’s a rundown of the $25k event, as well as a full recap of the delicious Doritos-fueled action.
The tournament was live streamed on the official Twitch Rivals channel and the Doritos Twitch channel. In addition, fans could watch the tournament on all of the top streamers’ channels if they only wanted to watch one POV.
