How to watch CDL pros vs Warzone creators competition: Who Is The King dates, teams, more

Plunder in WarzoneActivision

An ongoing debate in the COD community is who has more skill between CDL and Warzone pros. Who Is The King tests that question by pitting both parties against each other in a five-event competition.

With so much time in between Call of Duty League seasons, pros need something to keep themselves busy during an otherwise quiet offseason. In 2022, CDL pros made plenty of noise while on break by challenging Warzone’s biggest names to 1v1 matches.

We saw Warzone stars Biffle and Aydan taking on the likes of Methodz, Sib, and even ZooMaa. OpTic creative director Davis ‘Hitch’ tried to settle the debate by putting together a 4v4 tournament between both sets of pro players. Unfortunately, Hitch ultimately postponed the event, leaving matters undecided.

Thankfully, Activision took matters into its own hands and announced a tournament between Warzone creators and CDL pros. There isn’t much to go off yet, but here is everything we know so far.
