It completely was not the way in which that everybody thought this Main would play out, however the script actually was flipped on its head this time round.

OpTic Texas, the one staff in CDL historical past to have two good qualifying phases back-to-back fell in ninth place, with reigning champions, the LA Thieves, ending up in fifth place.

It’s By no means What You Anticipate

It says one thing when the London Royal Ravens, the worst staff within the Call of Duty League, end larger than OpTic Texas, Boston Breach, and Seattle Surge. That’s what occurred throughout Main V, the event that no person may have actually predicted. In a mind-blowing sweep, the New York Subliners cemented their legendary standing this season by locking of their second Main win of the yr, having received Main I approach again in December 2022.

It was a show worthy of the historical past books, with HyDra, KiSMET, Skyz, and Priestahhh all placing in immense work to drag off back-to-back wins. Whereas HyDra and KiSMET destroyed the board, there aren’t any particular commendations to be earned – this was a masterclass in full-team illustration, and each participant within the squad pull their weight throughout Main V. Nicely, by ‘no commendations’ – we should always clear up that HyDra was the MVP of the Main.

Following an prompt dismissal into the decrease bracket by Toronto Extremely, the Subliners locked in and stated, ‘Not right this moment, buddy’.

In a string of successes, NYSL laid waste to (and eradicated from the event):

• Los Angeles Guerrillas

First, the Florida Mutineers (who might by no means be seen once more within the CDL) worn out Texas, adopted by a devastating match-up towards the LA Thieves that ejected OpTic Texas from the event.

LAG and Seattle Surge successfully left the competitors with no single map received, too. They have been ejected from the decrease bracket with none contest. It was additionally believed to be the final time we’ll see LAG within the CDL, given the circumstances with the staff’s mum or dad organisation.
