Alright, let’s talk about this Call of Duty tournament in Boston. Man, what a wild ride that was.
First off, I had to figure out how to even watch this thing. Turns out, the main place to catch all the action is the official Call of Duty League channel on YouTube. Easy enough, I fired that up on my TV, so I wouldn’t miss a thing.
But here’s where it got interesting. I found out there were these other streams called “co-streams” going on at the same time. The two big ones I heard about were hosted by “The Flank” and some guy named “Scump”. Apparently, these guys are big shots in the COD world, so I figured I’d check them out.
- The Flank: These folks were more about breaking down the plays and giving their two cents on what was happening. Kinda like those sports commentators who analyze every little move.
- Scump: This stream was a whole different vibe. Seemed like Scump was just chilling, playing, and chatting with his buddies. It was more laid back but still fun to watch since he’s apparently a legend in the game.
I ended up bouncing back and forth between the official stream and these co-streams. It was cool to get different perspectives on the matches. The official stream was great for just pure, non-stop action, while the co-streams offered something a bit extra.
For example, I watched one crazy match on the main channel, and then I switched over to The Flank to hear them dissect a certain play that I thought was awesome. Then, to relax a bit, I’d hop onto Scump’s stream and see what he was up to.
The Whole Experience
Honestly, the whole setup was pretty sweet. You got the main event, like the Super Bowl, and then you have these side events that offer a different flavor. It made the whole tournament more engaging because I had choices. I wasn’t just stuck watching one thing. It gave me control of my viewing experience, which is not common these days when watching live sports.
By the end of the tournament, I felt like I had not only watched some killer COD gameplay but also got a little peek behind the curtain, thanks to those co-streams. It felt like a more complete way to experience the event, rather than just passively watching. I got to engage with the tournament and other fans in real time, which was quite nice. It was a lot of fun to see so many people passionate about Call of Duty.
So yeah, that’s my little story about diving into the Call of Duty tournament in Boston. It was definitely more than just watching people play video games. I had to actively choose what to watch and when, making for a better viewing experience. If you’re into COD or just esports in general, I’d say it’s worth checking out these different ways to watch. You might be surprised at how much more you get out of it.
