GWENT Challenger is part of the GWENT Masters, which, of course, is the official esports series of GWENT: The Witcher Card Game. CD PROJEKT RED (creators of The Witcher series) just announced that Daniel "Damorquis" Morkish has won the September 2018 GWENT Challenger tournament. Everyone was after that cheese, but Daniel got his hands on it, beating out the eight best GWENT players competing for the burly $100,000 prize pool, plus crown points and a guaranteed spot in the GWENT World Masters, the grand finale of the official GWENT esports scene.
