We couldn’t be happier to order another round of Battle of the Brands with DoorDash at PAX West. The lineup is bigger and better than ever and we can’t wait to announce the participants and see who wins the top prize.

We’re thrilled to bring Battle of the Brands back this year in an even bigger way.

As the tournament heats up, we’re excited for the dynamic duos of fan-favorite brands and skilled streamers to take the stage at PAX West to see who will take home the victory title and exciting grand prizes.

Personally, Grady is rooting for Team KFC as that is the most recent of the brands I have ordered from DoorDash! Things might change as teams get announced, but for now I am behind The Colonel.
