Only a few teams have yet to announce their new rosters — including London — although we’re pretty sure we know who is playing for them judging by early Call of Duty: Vanguard tournaments.

The deadline to announce contract extensions has past, meaning teams like Atlanta are all but locked in for the 2022 CDL season. We’ve got some huge moves o the books, including Ian “Crimsix” Porter to New York and a merger between Dallas and Chicago. There are also reports that a prospective Washington D.C. investor has lost interest in joining the league.
