Shroud has been involved with gaming since the dawn of time, and his experience in the industry speaks for itself. He started out as a pro CS:GO player, and now, at 27 years old, is one of the most prominent streamers in the gaming community. One thing fans of the popular streamer will know is that he really loves Apex Legends. Therefore, his pick for the best battle royale game took some people by surprise. But which game did he pick? Well, the answer to that question is Fortnite. The reason a lot of people were surprised is that he had said a lot of great things about Apex Legends since he started playing the game back in 2019. And a lot of people in the gaming community seem confused as to why he chose Fortnite over Apex Legends and Warzone. [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200821192550/shroud-twitch-mixer-1-768x432-1.jpg] WHY DID SHROUD PICK FORTNITE AS THE BEST BATTLE ROYALE TITLE? Warzone was never in the competition since Shroud had always had bad things to say about the game. And it is common knowledge to anyone who’s been a long-time viewer of his streams that Shroud likes Apex Legends much more than Warzone. Despite Shroud mentioning that Respawn should take less time delivering updates, Apex Legends, he used to feel, was still the best BR title out there. But all of that seems to have changed. [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200812142515/Shroud-1280x720-1.jpg] Recently, he claimed that Fortnite was the best battle royale title. And the reason, according to him, comes down to how Fortnite allows its players to build. In other battle royale titles, third parties can take you out while you’re engaged in a gunfight. But in Fortnite, even if you’re fighting someone, you can build structures to mitigate your chances of getting shot by a random player. And he seems to believe that it is this ability to build that Fortnite players have that makes the game the best competitive battle royale title. So, as things stand right now, Fortnite [https://www.epicgames.com/fortnite/en-US/home] is Shroud’s pick for the best competitive BR title, while Apex Legends is a worthy second.

<h2>Call of Duty Warzone 2022: Updates, System Requirements, and Mobile Version</h2>
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-541201" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20210205225943/call-of-duty-warzone-screenshot-001.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1080" />

Call of Duty: Warzone has established itself as of the most prominent battle royale games since releasing on March 10, 2020. It is a free-to-play battle royale developed by Infinity Ward and Raven Software, with Activision acting as the publisher.

Warzone is part of the franchise's 2019 title Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. However, the battle royale does not require the purchase of the campaign and multiplayer. Warzone is the second battle royale in the Call of Duty franchise, following the Blackout mode from the 2018 title Black Ops 4.
<h2>Call of Duty: Warzone Gameplay</h2>
Warzone hosts online multiplayer combat amongst up to 150 players in a match. This is significantly higher than the maximum player count of other titles in the genre. The players jump into a huge map called Verdansk, a fictional city roughly based on Donetsk, Ukraine.

Warzone features two main game modes, including Battle Royale and Plunder. While the game only featured BR Trios initially, Infinity Ward added the Solo, Duos, and Quads modes to their battle royale in post-launch updates.

Infinity Ward introduced a new in-game currency mechanic called Cash. Warzone's gameplay centers on searching supply boxes for weapons and Cash. Players can use their Cash at Buy Stations to buy back fallen teammates, Loadout drops, in-game Equipment, Field Upgrades, Killstreaks, etc.

They can also complete contracts that award instant in-game rewards, including loot, Cash, XP, and more. Moreover, Warzone implemented a new respawn mechanic. Once a player gets killed, they’ll find themselves in the Gulag. Here they must win a 1v1 round against another player to redeploy automatically. Otherwise, they will have to wait for their squadmates to purchase redeployment for them.
<h4>Warzone: Battle Royale and Plunder</h4>
The BR mode's gameplay is similar to other titles in the genre. Players jump out of a plane and land somewhere on Verdansk, armed with only a handgun. Once on the ground, they begin searching for weapons to fight off the rest of the players in the match and become the last man/squad standing as the playable zone constantly keeps shrinking.

Meanwhile, "Plunder" is a game mode entirely unique to Warzone and is based on the in-game currency. In this new mode, players have to gather the most Cash scattered around the map before time runs out.

Besides these two main game modes, Warzone has seen several other exciting limited-time modes since its launch. Some of those modes include BR Buy Backs, Blood Money, Warzone Rumble, Mini Royale, Juggernaut Royale, Armored Royale, and Zombies Royale.
<h2><span data-sheets-value="{" data-sheets-userformat="{">Important game settings and setup for COD: Warzone</span></h2>
In multiplayer games, success depends on a combination of skill and hardware performance. So enacting the following <a href="https://www.thegamer.com/call-duty-warzone-settings-improve-performance/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">changes</a> may improve your overall gameplay experience.
<ul>
 	<li>Crossplay: This will allow players to game with people across a plethora of platforms. As such, differences in setups and performance can make or break the experience. So choose as per your preference.</li>
 	<li>Automatic Sprint: Warzone offers three settings for sprinting. Disabled, which leads to the character only sprinting when the button is pressed. Automatic Sprint, which makes the character immediately start sprinting upon movement. And Automatic Tactical Sprint, which does the same for tactical sprinting as the automatic sprint option. Players should choose according to their play styles.</li>
 	<li>Sensitivity: Jumping right into the gameplay without adjusting your sensitivity can cost you. As gameplay can be greatly improved and made to feel more responsive by adjusting this feature. Especially for players who use different sensitivity settings for each game.</li>
 	<li>Depleted Ammo Weapon Switch: This lets players immediately switch to their secondary weapon when their beginning weapon is depleted. It can be a boon in intense gunfights.</li>
 	<li>Square Mini Map: This is a lifesaver. Players who have the round mini map equipped have a limited area visible to them. The square map expands this. And it has no drawbacks.</li>
</ul>
<h2><span data-sheets-value="{" data-sheets-userformat="{">Story of COD: Warzone</span></h2>
The in-game terrorist organisation Al-Qatala took a death blow after the events of Spec Ops. However, they struck the critical weakness of the armistice, its structure made up of opposing enemy factions. After an incident downs important cargo containing a chemical weapon, another faction war <a href="https://gamewith.net/cod-modernwarfare/article/show/18908" target="_blank" rel="noopener">erupts</a> between the Allegiance and Coalition members for ownership of the weapon.

With the Armistice in disarray Al-Qatala takes advantage of the situation and smuggles a nuclear weapon into Verdansk. The conflict escalated into an all-out war and not even Captain Price's trusted operators can handle it on their own.
<h2><span data-sheets-value="{" data-sheets-userformat="{">2022 updates for COD:Warzone</span></h2>
Call of Duty: Warzone is set to receive a flood of post launch content in 2022. The Season 2 <a href="https://www.callofduty.com/blog/2022/03/call-of-duty-vanguard-warzone-season-two-reloaded-rebirth-island" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Reloaded</a> package includes new modes, operators, and more. Rebirth island's altered alongside several points of interest, and a whole new POI called Dock is introduced.

The weekly playlists would also feature Payload, Blood Money, and a Resurgence solos mode. Additionally, the Rebirth Reinforced Event will feature Weapon Trade Stations and offer rewards to the entire community. New weapons such as the Armaguerra 43 SMG would tear across the battlefield alongside the fresh Snoop Dogg operator.
<h2><span data-sheets-value="{" data-sheets-userformat="{">Some Tips and Tricks for COD: Warzone season 2</span></h2>
As Warzone continues to be a colossal hit amongst the fanbase, players are always stepping up their game. Here are some easy <a href="https://www.pocket-lint.com/games/news/activision/151507-call-of-duty-warzone-tips-and-tricks-essential-hints" target="_blank" rel="noopener">tips</a> that may improve your experience with the title.
<ul>
 	<li>Check the map before dropping: It may sound unimportant, but this step can determine how the rest of your playthrough would go. From checking for the shrinking circle to determining where you would encounter most resistance. This is an essential step.</li>
 	<li>Drop faster: There's a nifty trick to hastening your arrival on the battlefield. Players can deploy their parachute upon dropping from the plane, however, they can cut the chord to drop faster and re-deploy the chute before landing. As many times as they like.</li>
 	<li>Don't sit on cash: There are no bonuses in BR games for hoarding your cash. Its worth is only measurable in terms of how well you use it in the round. Ensure you use it on the Buy Stations to give yourself an edge as opposed to lugging it around.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Warzone on mobile</h2>
<a href="https://www.techradar.com/in/news/call-of-duty-warzone-on-mobile">TechRadar</a> pointed out two key pieces of evidence that indicate a mobile port of Call of Duty: Warzone coming in the future.

In May 2020, Activision's CEO confirmed the company was working on publishing more mobile games. The community was quick to emphasize the plural "games", suggesting Warzone Mobile could be on the way.

Meanwhile, the second hint is from Reddit, with the creation of the r/WarzoneMobile sub-Reddit. The community lead for the COD Mobile team is the moderator for it, and the forum seems official rather than fan-created.
<div class="slot-double-height-10-496" data-feat-ref="bordeaux-feat-id-65">The first post in r/Warzone Mobile was from the community lead. It detailed a job listing intended for a Call of Duty: Warzone mobile port. Activision hiring team members for developing the mobile port strongly points to the game being on its way.</div>
<div data-feat-ref="bordeaux-feat-id-65"></div>
<div class="slot-double-height-10-496" data-feat-ref="bordeaux-feat-id-65">Call of Duty posted a blog <a href="https://www.callofduty.com/blog/2022/03/Join-us-in-building-Call-of-Duty-Warzone-for-mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">post</a> in March 2022 asking for people to join their growing, award-winning team of mobile veterans and emerging talent on an ambitious mission to bring Warzone to gamers on the go. But the blog post was not very indicative of a potential release date.</div>
<h2>Call of Duty: Warzone download</h2>
Within two months of release, Warzone downloads reached the 60 million mark. Since then, the game has continued growing and has become one of the most popular battle royales in the gaming market.

Warzone is available to download for free on PlayStation4, Xbox One, and PC. For those who already own Modern Warfare, downloading the battle royale is straightforward. Warzone is available as an option between multiplayer and Spec Ops upon entering the main menu.

Meanwhile, non-owners on consoles can visit their respective digital stores and search for "Warzone". Those on Desktop require installing Blizzard's Battle.net app and registering to play the game. Warzone will appear in the games list as an option on the left side. Since the BR includes many Modern Warfare assets, its file size is between 83-101 GB.
<h2>Call of Duty: Warzone Free Multiplayer Weekends</h2>
Throughout the life span of Call of Duty: Warzone, Infinity Ward and Activision have rolled out Free Multiplayer Weekends. During this particular time span, free-to-play Warzone users get free access to the multiplayer content exclusive to Modern Warfare.

Usually, a special playlist becomes available within the standalone battle royale, Warzone. The last such Free Multiplayer Weekend was in early August 2020, as part of Modern Warfare Season Five.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-2216698 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/fortnite-game-image-2.jpg" alt="" width="1910" height="1074" />

<span style="font-weight: 400">Epic Games poster game Fortnite was released back in 2017 as a third-person tactical shooter and it was just what Battle Royale fans needed. For years now, it has been known as a shooting adventure, especially for its Battle Royale mode. And the popularity has only grown since, thanks to all the efforts by developer, Epic Games. This has helped bring an exhilarating lineup of collaborations and celebrity features to the Fortnite island.Â </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">The Epic Games classic lets the players explore an open-world environment where the purpose is to <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/esports-news-these-ten-expensive-fortnite-skins-sent-fans-on-a-spending-spree/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">survive against other characters (skins)</a> through constant combat and some light-hearted graphical violence which has appealed to a lot of young gamers. The arsenal and combat essentials in the open world have only evolved with time and players have been introduced to new innovative load-outs, essentials, features, and movements from time to time. Let's have a look at how Fortnite has progressed as the biggest â€˜third-person-shooter Battle Royale since its infamous launch in 2017.Â </span>
<h2><strong>Fortnite Structure</strong></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">In contrast to other multiplayer games, Fortnite features a single, sizable map that is exclusive to that season. In actuality, you won't likely run into too many other players early on in the game. But as the game goes on, a ring on the map gradually gets closer to the center. Your character will perish if you are discovered outside the ring.Â </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Fortnite is comparable to games like PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds and Apex Legends. It does, however, have one special quality. In Fortnite, you can build constructions with your character as you go. In the game, this lets you place traps, construct forts, and provide cover. Further, in contrast to other battle royale games, Fortnite requires you to become an expert shooter and builder.</span>
<h2><strong>StorylineÂ </strong></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">It all took off with the Zero Point or as the game calls it The Big Bang which created the universe spawning in trillions of different realities and among all these alternative realities was the center reality zero aka the Fortnite island. This is the home of the zero point, an island that it created to protect itself from any threat. Well, it worked for a while until a mysterious group called the imagined order found out about it and decided to move to the island.Â </span>

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-2363482 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/fortnite-planes-leak.jpg" alt="" width="1600" height="900" />

<span style="font-weight: 400">The group created a whole bunch of secret underground bases which they could access through the bunkers. The secret society used Zero point energy to create a loop that forces people to fight against each other for 22 minutes and then it resets their memory. The IO group are the ones looking after the island and keeping everything in order. However, the twist begins when there are multiple attacks on the island by different enemies seeking zero-point energy.Â </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">The storyline starts before the time of Battle Royale when Dr Vindermann, the scientist, finds out about some crazy advancements in the science lab called the Vindertech. He was also the creator of V bucks, Battle Pass and all the weapons players can access on the island. Before Season 3, no player was aware of the loop on the island. Also, the original default skins were actually the snapshots of the agents of IO, later explained in the storyline.Â </span>
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400">
<h3><strong>The MeteorÂ </strong></h3>
</li>
</ul>
<span style="font-weight: 400">On May 1st, 2018, the Fortnite world witnessed its first attack when the meteor struck the center of the map destroying Dusty Divot and the factors while smaller meteors destroyed other structures on the island.</span>

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-2388617 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/fortnite-meteor.jpeg" alt="" width="1920" height="1080" />

<span style="font-weight: 400">The impact also introduced hop rocks, which players could consume to experience low gravity effects. Following this event, the narrative continued to evolve with subsequent seasons. The Zero Point became a central element, leading to events like the butterfly event, the Nexus War, and the ongoing struggle against the Loop. Each season brought new story elements, collaborations, and changes to the Fortnite island.</span>

Fortnite

Epic Games poster game Fortnite was released back in 2017 as a third-person tactical shooter and it was just what Battle Royale fans needed. For years now, it has been known as a shooting adventure, especially for its Battle Royale mode. And the popularity has only grown since, thanks to all the efforts by developer, Epic Games. This has helped bring an exhilarating lineup of collaborations and celebrity features to the Fortnite island.Â  The Epic Games classic lets the players explore an open-world environment where the purpose is to survive against other characters (skins) through constant combat and some light-hearted graphical violence which has appealed to a lot of young gamers. The arsenal and combat essentials in the open world have only evolved with time and players have been introduced to new innovative load-outs, essentials, features, and movements from time to time. Let&#8217;s have a look at how Fortnite has progressed as the biggest â€˜third-person-shooter Battle Royale since its infamous launch in 2017.Â  Fortnite Structure In contrast to other multiplayer games, Fortnite features a single, sizable map that is exclusive to that season. In actuality, you won&#8217;t likely run into too many other players early on in the game. But as the game goes on, a ring on the map gradually gets closer to the center. Your character will perish if you are discovered outside the ring.Â  Fortnite is comparable to games like PlayerUnknown&#8217;s Battlegrounds and Apex Legends. It does, however, have one special quality. In Fortnite, you can build constructions with your character as you go. In the game, this lets you place traps, construct forts, and provide cover. Further, in contrast to other battle royale games, Fortnite requires you to become an expert shooter and builder. StorylineÂ  It all took off with the Zero Point or as the game calls it The Big Bang which created the universe spawning in trillions of different realities and among all these alternative realities was the center reality zero aka the Fortnite island. This is the home of the zero point, an island that it created to protect itself from any threat. Well, it worked for a while until a mysterious group called the imagined order found out about it and decided to move to the island.Â  The group created a whole bunch of secret underground bases which they could access through the bunkers. The secret society used Zero point energy to create a loop that forces people to fight against each other for 22 minutes and then it resets their memory. The IO group are the ones looking after the island and keeping everything in order. However, the twist begins when there are multiple attacks on the island by different enemies seeking zero-point energy.Â  The storyline starts before the time of Battle Royale when Dr Vindermann, the scientist, finds out about some crazy advancements in the science lab called the Vindertech. He was also the creator of V bucks, Battle Pass and all the weapons players can access on the island. Before Season 3, no player was aware of the loop on the island. Also, the original default skins were actually the snapshots of the agents of IO, later explained in the storyline.Â   The MeteorÂ   On May 1st, 2018, the Fortnite world witnessed its first attack when the meteor struck the center of the map destroying Dusty Divot and the factors while smaller meteors destroyed other structures on the island. The impact also introduced hop rocks, which players could consume to experience low gravity effects. Following this event, the narrative continued to evolve with subsequent seasons. The Zero Point became a central element, leading to events like the butterfly event, the Nexus War, and the ongoing struggle against the Loop. Each season brought new story elements, collaborations, and changes to the Fortnite island.  The CubeÂ   An official character of the cube, commonly referred to as â€œKevinâ€ proved its vitality in Fortniteâ€™s plot. The smoke monster has been featured since season five when a huge crack opened up in the sky and released it into the island. Therefore, the cube moved across the map creating Runes and visiting diverse places. While traveling, the cube switched on Loot Lake, which turned it into a floating one. Ultimately it melted into the lake forming whirlpools taking players to another world. Subsequently, it continued to serve as a center stage in season six where â€œbutterflyâ€ was organized and the cube recurred in other shapes in succeeding seasons. The mysterious nature behind the cube helped to add mystique and magic to the Fortnite storyline. It also ensured that the events on the island were shaped by the presence of this cube. Subsequently, Fortnite went on with its storyline which involved different scenarios. At this point, the ZERO PT was made central as The Seven, an ensemble of guys trying to keep the multiverse stable, came into play. This story unfolded in the Butterfly event in Season 6, depicting the clash of various powers. The Foundation was added in subsequent seasons and became key during the Zero Crisis Finale that kicked off Chapter 2, Season 6. IO turned out to be one of the major forces struggling with the disorder caused by the Zero Point. There were further happenings like the season when the â€œIOâ€ forces invaded and introduced the cube queen whom they had been fighting a continuous war on the loop.Â  These two events opened up a whole new realm of possibilities to the island bringing collisions of different universes across the globe to the island. A huge advantage these two attacks on Zero Energy brought was the liberty to bring on many top-tier collaborations to the game.Â  Notable Collaborations As mentioned earlier, a lot of the limelight Fortnite enjoys is attributed to the top-tier lineup of collaborations that have been introduced in the game throughout. From unexpected Easter eggs to some big celebrity skins, there&#8217;s a never-ending lineup that fans can look back on to celebrate the branding of Fortnite.

<h2><strong>Shroud 2021: Net worth, sponsors, and streaming setup</strong></h2>
Shroud is one of the most recognizable names from the gaming industry. His father developed and nurtured a love for gaming in him from the age of 5, and he has never looked back since.

Today, Shroud is one of the most loved and respected streamers on the planet.
<h2>Shroud- Counter-Strike Global Offensive career</h2>
The Canadian is a former eSports professional, having concluded a fairly successful career as a Counter-Strike Global Offensive player. After bouncing between a few teams like Exertus, Manajuma, he finally found a home at Cloud9, who acquired Shroud's then team, compLexity Gaming.

Even as a competitive player, Shroud balanced his time between pro gaming and streaming. In April of 2018, he stepped down from his competitive career and turned to streaming full-time. To this day, he remains a rare example of someone who has successfully managed to balance a competitive and streaming career.
<h2>Shroud on Twitch</h2>
You're likely to find him and his loyal followers online most days. What sets him apart from the rest of the players in the business is his nature and personality.

<a href="https://www.twitch.tv/shroud">Shroud</a> was easily one of the most popular and successful streamers on Twitch. He boasts more than 7 million followers on Twitch and consistently pulled in a large number of viewers.

Tune in to his broadcasts and you'll find him playing games like CS: GO, PUBG, Valorant, Apex Legends, World of Warcraft, and Call of Duty: Warzone. Of course, his interests are not limited to just these, but he is partial to them.

Most streamers have to resort to various idiosyncrasies and quirks to attract and keep their viewers entertained. Unlike most, Shroud is a pure gamer; he is all about gaming and it's all he needs to command a horde of loyal die-hard fans.

One good reason behind that is his skill. Since his days as a pro, Shroud has often been labeled the best aimer in gaming. Put any first-person shooter in front of him, and soon, he will master it like few others.
<h2>Mixer Contract</h2>
Testimony to his reputation, you need not look further than the fact that Microsoft-owned Mixer made a targeted effort (and a successful one) to wrench away Shroud from Twitch. What better way to legitimize its new platform than have someone like Shroud on it?

On the financial side, reports suggest his contract with Microsoft runs into tens of millions of dollars. He did only have a fraction of the followers he had on Twitch on Mixer. However, since he is back on Twitch, that is likely solved.
<h2>Shroud net worth in 2021:</h2>
According to <a href="https://www.theloadout.com/streamers/shroud/net-worth-streaming-setup#:~:text=What%20is%20Shroud's%20net%20worth,%2C%20ads%2C%20and%20sponsored%20streams.">theloadout</a>, Shroud's net worth is estimated to be between $6-10 million. It could very well be much higher, depending on his contract with Mixer.
<h2>How to contact Shroud in 2021</h2>
Shroud is available to contact on the following platforms:

Shroud- Counter-Strike Global Offensive career The Canadian is a former eSports professional, having concluded a fairly successful career as a Counter-Strike Global Offensive player. After bouncing between a few teams like Exertus, Manajuma, he finally found a home at Cloud9, who acquired Shroud&#8217;s then team, compLexity Gaming. Even as a competitive player, Shroud balanced his time between pro gaming and streaming. In April of 2018, he stepped down from his competitive career and turned to streaming full-time. To this day, he remains a rare example of someone who has successfully managed to balance a competitive and streaming career. Shroud on Twitch You&#8217;re likely to find him and his loyal followers online most days. What sets him apart from the rest of the players in the business is his nature and personality. Shroud was easily one of the most popular and successful streamers on Twitch. He boasts more than 7 million followers on Twitch and consistently pulled in a large number of viewers. Tune in to his broadcasts and you&#8217;ll find him playing games like CS: GO, PUBG, Valorant, Apex Legends, World of Warcraft, and Call of Duty: Warzone. Of course, his interests are not limited to just these, but he is partial to them. Most streamers have to resort to various idiosyncrasies and quirks to attract and keep their viewers entertained. Unlike most, Shroud is a pure gamer; he is all about gaming and it&#8217;s all he needs to command a horde of loyal die-hard fans. One good reason behind that is his skill. Since his days as a pro, Shroud has often been labeled the best aimer in gaming. Put any first-person shooter in front of him, and soon, he will master it like few others. Mixer Contract Testimony to his reputation, you need not look further than the fact that Microsoft-owned Mixer made a targeted effort (and a successful one) to wrench away Shroud from Twitch. What better way to legitimize its new platform than have someone like Shroud on it? On the financial side, reports suggest his contract with Microsoft runs into tens of millions of dollars. He did only have a fraction of the followers he had on Twitch on Mixer. However, since he is back on Twitch, that is likely solved.
