Popular insider Rod Breslau commented “Activision changing the game and format every year for its multi million dollar esports league is pretty funny, but this is the right move.”
The decision to go back to the 4v4 mode seems abrupt considering they just changed to 5v5 for the 2020 season. And that wasn’t the only change they made. It was also the first time they introduced a city-based franchise format. The teams had reportedly paid a hefty sum to be a part of the League. Teams were also allowed to have substitutes in their squads and introduced a playoff system, too.
Clayster speaks up on the new Call Of Duty League Format
People in the industry will have divided opinions regarding this decision. Take a look at what current champion Clayster had to say about this. “Don’t get me wrong, CoD is far more tactical and easier to watch in 4v4. I think 4v4 is far better than 5v5. They should’ve made this change when every player was a F/A and was building rosters like, iunno, before this f****n year? Why make teams build like this just to revert?”
