We break down the construction of new roster, and consider the realistic potential of this roster going into Vanguard. Can anyone compete with FaZe in CDL power rankings? How does Accuracy clutch so consistently, namely THAT 1v3 against OpTic.

Apathy has confirmed his retirement from the CDL, re-joining LAG as a content creator. FormaL considers a move to competitive Halo Infinite for HCS Raleigh, discussing the superiority of the open format compared to the current CDL. We consider Loony joining Rokkr as a coach, drama between Neptune, Owakening & iLLeY, & a BO4 cheating debacle involving female player Cely. With Shotzzy spotted at the Heczquarters, how long will we be waiting until OpTic Dallas confirm their roster?

We bring a special episode with new LAG members Gunless & Asim. Discussing their intentions to be in Texas for the 2022 season, & the chaos of past off-seasons. Gunless talks on the difficulties that Seattle Surge faced in CW, while Asim explains the importance of chemistry & team culture to success. Both predicting LAG will beat out rivals LAT once again this year, especially with SlasheR & Huke on their revenge tours. Should FaZe & Ultra retain the top spots in pre-season power rankings?

Envoy joins Los Angeles Thieves and Octane returns, will the new Los Angeles Guerrillas still get the better of them in CoD Vanguard? Did Minnesota Rokkr and Toronto Ultra make the correct decision sticking, and will Seattle Surge finally finish in the Top 8? Will OpTic Chicago’s spot be moved to Washington, could Methodz join? What will the third gamemode be in Call of Duty Vanguard as the beta continues, will Patrol be introduced?

Rostermania is reaching the business end, with many rumors flying around. LAG has confirmed a major upgrade with SlasheR, Huke, Gunless & Asim, while their counterparts LAT look to acquire Envoy alongside Octane, Kenny & Drazah. Will NYSL’s Clayster, C6, Hydra & Neptune squad work despite the risk, how does the SMG duo match up to Scump & Shotzzy of the alleged OpTic Dallas? London & Seattle seek younger lineups, while Ultra & Rokkr look to stick after all. How will Vanguard fare for competitive?

CDL rostermania is well underway, with some insane rumours since Champs concluded. The boys discuss Crimsix getting dropped from Dallas Empire, and the rumored merger with OpTic Chicago to form OpTic Dallas. Can a team of Scump, Shotzzy, Illey, and Dashy take down Atlanta FaZe? We reflect on the announcement of Formal’s retirement and consider where Envoy could go in rostermania. Could LA Thieves be an option alongside Octane, Kenny, and Huke? Where will SlasheR go if that were the case?

The CDL World Championship has concluded, with Atlanta FaZe coming away with the crown. After a great weekend of matches and high viewership, what changes should be made to dethrone the new champions in rostermania? Could Clayster return to Dallas Empire alongside Crimsix? Will OpTic Chicago make a change, do they require more discipline? Could any of FormaL, Dashy or Envoy leave the squad? Octane is finally free from Seattle Surge; will he go to LA Thieves in place of SlasheR?

CoD Champs starts Thursday, with many questions still to be resolved. The boys discuss the return of Clay to NYSL, can he go back-to-back-to-back? We consider OpTic’s precarious situation, and why fans shouldn’t be worried about Scump & Envoy’s positive tests. Champs predictions: FaZe, Ultra & Rokkr emerging as favourites? Pros seem optimistic about CoD Vanguard, could it be the best-supported competitive title ever, & will snipers return? What would the CDL look like if Simp had joined 100T?

With Champs around the corner, there are still many questions left to be answered. Which amateurs from the Challengers Champs will get their shot next year? Will Clayster return to the NYSL starting lineup as the CDL appears to leak his comeback? The boys question whether Champs will go ahead as planned, which is confirmed towards the end of the episode. We give a rostermania preview, and discuss the rumours surrounding CoD 2021, anti-cheat’s rumored arrival, and our wish list for competitive.

With fans back in the venue, NYSL found some life in the absence of Clayster, while LAT finished in 5th-6th. FaZe had their worst placing in history, losing to Surge in a remarkable series. OpTic managed 3rd for the 1st time this season, but couldn’t get past a Toronto team that fell to Rokkr in the greatest comeback in CDL history! making them CDL major 5 champions! Can OpTic bounce back with CDL Champs around the corner, and what are the power rankings going into the final event of the season?

1 Week till the major, and drama is still among us as Clayster steps down from New York in controversial circumstances, while Crimsix reveals Dallas targeted him after dropping Huke earlier this season. Should the CDL’s worst teams have used snipers this week? FaZe embarrass New York to bounce back from defeat to OpTic, while they secure 1st seed despite being reverse swept by an inconsistent LA Thieves. How many teams will be involved in rostermania this off-season? Will OpTic finally find form to win?

Finally an exciting week of action! SlasheR claims the format should be changed, could we see the end of the CDL regular season games? Will Activision be concerned over the OpTic playing Valorant? What do LAT do now after a disappointing loss to Paris, could we see yet another change? New York are in shambles, can they turn the end of their season around? OpTic vs FaZe was one of the series of the season so far, with OpTic clutching up. Could this provide the confidence they need to make a deep run on LAN?

The boys give the rundown on an interesting week of Call of Duty League action. Methodz claims Crim6 is still angry after being dropped from OpTic in 2019, is this why he’s calling out Scump? Fans return to LAN for the Stage V Major; will this help OpTic as they closed out an impressive 6-0 map count week? Can New York bounce back from weak performance, and will LAT continue their resurgence against FaZe this coming week? If CoD 2021 proves similar to MW, are we in for a painful year in 2022?

Stage 5 is finally underway; the boys give the rundown of the week. With Surge and Rokkr considering role changes, are they in desperation mode? As FaZe claim they bodied LAT in scrims, do they have the SMG power to compete with the best. Would they consider bringing Octane & Slasher back together next season? Envoy & Dashy spoke on the pressure of playing for OpTic, as fans return to the Stage 5 Major, does this help the team? We also rank our Top 5 SMG & AR players in CW right now!

Tactical Rab bags an Interview with "KuavoKenny" and discusses his career highlights; from his success in WW2 & BO4 to the potential rosters of games past, finalising on the roster moves from LAT and how it impacts the team.

Despite Stage 5 of the CDL starting a week later than usual, there’s been plenty of Call of Duty news to discuss. What will Crimsix say in his video about Huke following “cease and desist” notices? Will OpTic’s Scump, FormaL and Karma continue to dominate the WZ after Champs? Is it too easy for FaZe to win Champs given the history of the event? What next for LAT after acquiring John, recalling Drazah, and benching Huke and TJHaLy. Can they make it out of a tough group with FaZe, OpTic and Subliners?

The Stage 4 Major is over and FaZe are the champions yet again. Dallas kicked into a new gear in this major. Taking down OpTic twice in embarrassing fashion for the Greenwall, Dallas looked much improved. OpTic beat a stronger-looking Surge during their campaign, while Octane has made the claim that all teams should be permitted to attend CDL Champs. LAG has benched Chino for ex-Gears of War pro MentaL in a controversial fashion, as the boy's break down their pre-Stage 5 power rankings.

The 4th Major is officially here with the return to LAN! Will it make a difference? FaZe are still favorites to win after the Dub against Rokkr. OpTic’s remarkable week of losing to Surge then stomping LAT. Another LAT roster change following substantial drama involving Huke. Is this JKap's doing? The OpTic Dynasty will meet up on Winners’ Round 1, with a new Formal v Crimsix rivalry to promise an exciting battle. Meanwhile, NYSL seem forced to replace Asim following visa issues; Who should they grab?

The return to LAN is just around the corner. The boys break down Surge’s continuing woes, should they start clearing house before the season ends? OpTic defeats Paris with some incredible comms, while LAT takes an unacceptable defeat without Huke as Temp gets revenge. FaZe comfortably 3-0 both teams they played, on the verge of breaking their own map win streak record. Empire improved, but still, throw a series to Subliners? Who is the best team of CDL players currently on the bench?

The effects of rostermania are starting to play out for stage 4. The boys break down an impressive bounce-back week from the Mutineers, all-but relegating the bottom four teams to the fate of not qualifying for the world championship. Empire were destroyed again by Ultra, does their new team with Vivid have time to turn things around? LAT crape past Seattle without Huke, as Surge’s loss streak mounts to 8 in a row. FaZe demolish OpTic once again, just why can’t OpTic ever seem to beat FaZe?

Roster changes have been full effect in a hectic period. We discuss Decemate leaving Surge with Classic joining in his place, and why John’s decision to turn down CDL spots. Dallas has swapped FeLo for Vivid. The big news of the week was LAT deciding to move Huke to a bench spot and return to their starting roster, could he be acquired elsewhere, what’s wrong with his playstyle? With Standoff replacing Checkmate for Search and Destroy, is this bad news for FaZe and OpTic?
