Baron of the Wasteland Event in Black Ops 7 Season 1 Reloaded

How does the Baron of the Wasteland Event work inside of Black Ops 7? This will be a leaderboard styled event, meaning players will compete on a small leaderboard to earn various rewards. These 29 other players you’ll be competing against are completely random matchups, sometimes even your friends wind up on the same board as you. This event is one you need to keep an eye on, so you don’t lose your placement.
The method in climbing the ranks is by collecting Bottle Caps! The more you collect, the higher up on the board you’ll end up placing. The rewards you can earn will be based on your placement as the event finishes.
Players who finish with higher placements will earn better rewards than those who finish lower down. The Wasteland will reward those who persevere above the rest of their opponents.
The Baron of the Wasteland Event will end on January 15th & end on January 20th!
