After that, Pao took a red-eye over to Vegas and reports live from Black Ops 4's first major offline tournament, CWL Las Vegas.
Then later, we talk to two esports titans - first, it's CLG COO and esports veteran Nick Allen about his journey in the industry and how he's defining CLG by the organization's trademark persistence. After that, it's triple-threat CEO of Immortals, MIBR, and LA Valiant Noah Whinston on how he's managed to assemble such a killer roster and the importance of finding passion in things other than esports. And finally - you didn't think we forgot about Smash Ultimate's release, did you? Resident Smash expert Zane takes on the rest of the Cheddar Sports team - 1v3.
