All eyes were on 100 Thieves as they looked to secure their third major Call of Duty championship in a row after victories at both CWL London and CWL Anaheim. However, things did not go to plan as they dropped into losers bracket following defeat against FaZe Clan, before exiting the tournament at the hands of Gen.G.

It was also a tournament to forget for OpTic Gaming, who were knocked out of losers bracket by 100 Thieves, putting yet more pressure on a roster known for their winning ways.

Evil Geniuses and Luminosity both qualified through the play in tournament, but fell on Saturday too, in top 10 and top 6 respectively.

FaZe Clan showed plenty of improvement with wins over 100 Thieves and Luminosity to secure their first top 3 finish of Black Ops 4, and were met there by eUnited. GenG and Reciprocity would fight for their chance to be in the top 3 alongside them, after also both upsetting teams on their way to the losers bracket final.

In the loser’s finals, FaZe Clan again went down 2-0 and were subsequently dispatched 3-0 by GenG, leaving them with a third place finish.

GenG had to beat eUnited twice in a Best of 5, and they were able to do so in dominant fashion 3-0, forcing a winner-take-all final series. However, eU bounced back in a big way and came away with a 3-0 sweep themselves to take the victory in Miami.

Instead, it was The Bhoys who reigned victorious. Team WaR lost to The Bhoys in the winners final before successfully navigating a tricky tie against Mazer Gaming to setup a rematch in grand finals. WaR took the first series 3-2 but The Bhoys rallied for the second series, edging WaR out with a 3-2 score of their own.
