Elementary is a modern-day take on detective Sherlock Holmes and his sidekick Watson. The series is currently in its fifth season, and JKap will be appearing in episode #514, which is only several weeks away.
The @ELEMENTARYStaff Twitter account warned yesterday that they had a special surprise for esports fans. The tweet gained little traction until today, when they announced JKap’s appearance.
JKap is a two-time Call of Duty champion. He won the Call of Duty Championship in both 2015 and 2016 under Denial Esports and Team EnVyUs respectively.
Edit – @ELEMENTARYStaff told theScore esports, “He’s not the only pro player that will be in that episode. Announcing several more today…”
