Monster Mornings: Your Ultimate CDL Championship Pre-Show with Guy Blaze and IHOLDSHIFT!
Join Monster Energy's Morning Show for 2025 Call of Duty League Championship Weekend with Hosts Guy Blaze and IHOLDSHIFT!
The CDL is heading back north to Toronto, Ontario, and you know what that means — Monster Mornings is heading up right along with it! With CDL Championship weekend just around the corner, running from June 26 to 29, we’ve put together the only morning show you’ll ever need to get the lowdown on the competition from day to day.
If you’ve never tuned in to Monster Mornings before, it’s a talk show that we usually run for The International, but are now adapting to Call of Duty. It’s a 60-minute pre-show that’ll air on the Monster Energy Twitch channel before every tournament day, with the goal being to start your day off right with fun segments and recaps. Unfortunately, our Dota hosts don’t know anything about Call of Duty, so we’ve tapped two CDL experts to step in for this one. The show will be hosted by Guy Blaze and IHOLDSHIFT, who are both well-known casters and fixtures of the CDL community, so you know you’re in good hands.
As usual, it won’t be a super polished or particularly serious affair. With Monster Mornings, it’s pretty common for the setup to be occasionally scuffed, but that also means we’ve got a lot more leeway to not take everything so seriously. Expect fun commentary, witty repartee, and whatever else we can get away with according to Twitch TOS. And, of course, plenty of Call of Duty talk — enough for you to come away from it feeling fully prepared for the day to come.
The show will run every day from June 27 to June 29, with the schedule as follows:
- June 27: 9AM - 10AM ET
- June 28: 9AM - 10AM ET
- June 29: 8AM - 9AM ET
So, all this being said, make sure you tune in every day to maximize your CDL Champs experience. Watch Monster Mornings on our Twitch channel, and follow us on Twitter for all the updates!
