Here is a viewer’s guide to CWL Fort Worth 2019.

Stream

CWL Fort Worth matches can be viewed starting Friday, March 15 via several streams. The event will be available on MLG’s website, the official Call of Duty Twitch channels, and through the in-game World League Hub in Black Ops 4.

Format

CWL Fort Worth 2019 will feature a unique format unlike other LAN events over the past few years. This event will essentially be separated into two different tournaments. The 16 teams from the 2019 CWL Pro League will compete in the professional tournament for a $325,000 prize pool. All other teams, however, will compete in a separate open bracket event with a $75,000 prize pool.

For the main event, though, the 16 CWL Pro League teams have been split into four groups. The top two teams from each pool will advance to the winners bracket of the double-elimination championship bracket. The other teams will be placed in the championship losers bracket.

Unlike past events, the best open bracket teams will not join the group stage at CWL Fort Worth 2019.
