Rostermania is still underway in North America, and league owners Activision did not release a schedule until Monday (April 18th) evening, instead opting to inform fans via Twitter about the start of the League.
Treyarch’s David Vonderhaar, league officials, the development team, and pro players have also been privately discussing changes to the competitive format. In a tweet to OpTic Gaming’s Crimsix, Vonderhaar revealed the topic of one discussion- another respawn map instead of three Search modes in a Best of Seven series.
@OpTic_Crimsix Friday. TL:DR. 2 Uplinks instead of 3 SDs.
