Following a short break after Major One, the next stage of Call of Duty League online qualifiers is scheduled for Major Two.

Rostermania

CDL Rostermania started early in 2024, as several teams shuffled their lineups after disappointing starts to the season. Boston didn’t win a single map in front of its home crowd, so the Breach responded by dropping Capsidal for Asim. The Los Angeles Thieves also made changes, swapping out Cammy and JoeDecieves for Nastie and Kremp.

Vegas announced that Standy is no longer a part of the Legion, and Seattle moved on from iLLeY, who had an impressive first few matches.

League Changes

During the break, the league itself underwent a few changes. For Major Two Qualifier matches, there are new Hardpoint hills and spawns, and Rio replaced Skidrow Search and Destroy and Terminal Hardpoint.
