Tale of the tape: How Nadeshot vs. Banks came to be

The verbal shots between Nadeshot and Banks rang out weeks ago, with the former taking aim first. Nadeshot issued a formal challenge during an episode of the CouRage and Nadeshot Show, calling Banks "free cash" in a 1v1. Banks fired back, calling an Intervention radar first-to-20 match an "absolute lock" in his favor.

Each YouTube and Call of Duty legend has made their mark on the game: Banks, a sniping pioneer, and Nadeshot, a former professional player and multiple-time tournament winner. Although both have a permanent spot in the history books, times have changed.

Banks recently reclaimed control of FaZe Clan and, by all accounts, has not played Call of Duty nearly as much as Nadeshot. The 100 Thieves CEO streams daily on Twitch, playing mostly Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and even Warzone. The oddsmakers would likely favor Nadeshot over Banks in the 1v1, but perhaps a CoD sniping veteran still has a few tricks up his sleeve.

Tune in today, May 30, at 2 p.m. to see which of the two is the superior Call of Duty sniper.
