Our Predictions For CDL 2024: Stage 2 Major
Want to supercharge your Call of Duty bets? Say no more! Here is our analysis of the top three teams participating in the CDL 2024: Stage 2 Major.
Important: These predictions reflect the perceived strength of teams based on historical trends and should not be interpreted as betting advice. Past performance does not guarantee future outcomes. Always gamble responsibly.
Toronto Ultra
Toronto Ultra leads the Call of Duty League 2024 Regular Season with an impressive 14-3 record and 200 CDL Points. They already clinched the Stage 1 Major title with a sweeping 4-1 victory over Atlanta FaZe, which solidifies their name as a powerhouse ahead of the Stage 2 Major.
Their roster features a blend of seasoned and emerging talents, with veteran stars Insight (1.07 KD) and CleanX (1.05 KD) providing a solid foundation for the team. These titans are complemented by 2023 Rookie of the Year Scrappy (1.15 KD) and the ex-LAT star Envoy (1.02 KD).
While Toronto Ultra is a strong favorite, they still face significant competition from the likes of Atlanta FaZe and OpTic Texas. These teams have shown remarkable skill and determination in the Stage 2 Qualifiers. That said, only time will tell if Toronto Ultra can maintain the lead and replicate their Stage 1 success.
Roster:
- Tobias “CleanX” Jønsson
- Jamie “Insight” Craven
- Thomas “Scrappy” Ernst
- Dylan “Envoy” Hannon
Atlanta FaZe
Atlanta FaZe is another top contender for the CDL 2024: Major 2 title, ranking 2nd in the 2024 Regular Season. They have accumulated an impressive 195 CDL Points and boast an 83.3% match win rate (15-3). However, this level of performance is not new for FaZe, who have dominated the Call of Duty League since its inception.
Their recent track record includes 2nd place in the Boston Breach Major I and 3rd place in the Major 2 Qualifiers. Beyond this, Atlanta FaZe houses trio Cellium (1.27 KD), aBeZy (1.02 KD), and Simp (1.16 KD), as well as the 2022 CDL world champion, Drazah (1.10 KD), the latter of whom was key to LAT’s back-to-back Major 4 victories in 2022-23.
Roster:
- Tyler “aBeZy” Pharris
- McArthur “Cellium” Jovel
- Chris “Simp” Lehr
- Zack “Drazah” Jordan
- Nicholas “Classic” DiCostanzo (substitute)
OpTic Texas
OpTic Texas is coming in hot at the CDL 2024: Stage 2 Major. The team dominated at the Qualifiers. They had an incredible 7-0 streak and secured the top seed after a reverse sweep against the defending 2023 Playoffs Champions, NY Subliners. Their performance places them 3rd overall thus far, with a strong 13-5 record.
Despite the departure of Scump, a legendary figure in the Call of Duty arena, the Green Wall’s reinvigorated lineup has proven equally formidable. In particular, Canadian titan Dashy (1.06 KD) has risen up to fill the void with his remarkable skill and experience in his sixth consecutive season.
Veteran Shotzzy (1.05 KD) continues to smash CDL season records, while newcomers Pred (1.11 KD) and Kenny (0.99 KD) bring fresh energy to the team. This blend of seasoned talent makes OpTic Texas a team to watch closely as they pursue the Stage 2 Major title.
Roster:
- Anthony “Shotzzy” Cuevas-Castro
- Brandon “Dashy” Otell
- Kenneth “Kenny” Williams
- Amer “Pred” Zulbeari
