Eight months after the first event of its kind, JoeWo’s Battle for the Crown returned for another run in 2022. This time around though, things were a little different.

Spread across three weeks in May, Warzone’s top talent dropped into three distinct tournaments, each boasting a unique format. Here’s a full breakdown of all there is to know now that the competition is all wrapped up.

JoeWo’s $50K Battle for the Crown: Streams & Schedule

As you would expect from an event hosted by JoeWo, the NRG streamer hosted the tournament directly on his Twitch channel. While he was also competing himself at times, keeping an eye on JoeWo’s broadcast was the best way to keep on top of results throughout each day of the tournament.

It all kicked off on Tuesday, May 10, with tournament dates then following with each passing week. May 17 marked the midway point while May 24 served as the final day for teams to prove themselves.

JoeWo’s $50K Battle for the Crown: Format

While the first Battle for the Crown event featured a simple Duos kill-race format, the second iteration was a little more complicated. As the sequel wa split across three days, each leg of the tournament came with its own unique ruleset.

Below is a breakdown of each weekly format:

• Week 1: Ground Loot only
• Week 2: Opposite inputs (EG, controller players must use mouse and keyboard)
• Week 3: Standard kill-race finale

While the first week was certainly interesting, it was week two where things really get dicey. Warzone’s top stars have all made a name for themselves while using their preferred equipment. Here, they had to mix things up and test their skills with unfamiliar equipment.

Players and teams for each week of the event weren’t announced ahead of time. But as you would expect from a tournament of this size, all of Warzone’s biggest names got involved week after week.

32 streamers in total joined in on the weekly competition, with the likes of Swagg, Tommey, Aydan, and plenty more all fighting for the top spot.

With the latest $50K series now in the books, we’ll be sure to keep you posted if and when a third iteration comes into focus.
