As the off-season begins for the Call of Duty League, teams begin preparing for the next 2021 season. What\u2019s more, with the ever-looming release of Activision\u2019s Black Ops: Cold War title, new players will enter the fray. <\/p>\n
One notable change sees James \u201cClayster\u201d Eubanks sign with the New York Subliners. This comes after Dallas Empire asked Eubanks to go, days after winning the Call of Duty League Championship. The three-time champion should give the New York Subliners an advantage, helping them become favorites on North American betting sites. <\/p>\n
Another big change sees Alec \u201cArcitys\u201d Sanderson join Atlanta FaZe. The former championship winner hopes to fill a more important role after spending most of his time playing support. FaZe already sports a strong team but wants to improve it further after losing to Dallas Empire in the finals. <\/p>\n
FunPlus Phoenix has begun advanced talks with Sweedish organization, GODSENT, to sign its first-team roster for CS: GO. After signing Petar \u201cPeca\u201d Markovi\u0107 as its General Manager, the group indicated its interest in acquiring further athletes. <\/p>\n
Markovi\u0107 announced that FunPlus Phoenix wouldn\u2019t compete in Flashpoint 2, even though it\u2019s one of the tournament\u2019s founders. Instead, the Chinese group will focus on building a new lineup for 2021. However, as talks with GODSENT continue, the group could expedite this process. <\/p>\n
The Sweedish team\u2019s roster ranks 19th globally and sixth in the Regional Major rankings for Europe. FunPlus Phoenix’s League of Legends team won last year\u2019s World Championship and entered the CS: GO category in March this year. Punters now eagerly await the results, which will give them a strong CS:GO<\/a> betting option. <\/p>\nAfrica Esports News<\/h2>\n
