The Call Of Duty League Pro-Am Classic 2022 starts now!

I may have to watch this cross-eyed, but there are four matches starting us off in the Call Of Duty League Pro-Am, with Atlanta Faze versus Seattle Surge to begin the day on the main stage. I apologize, we won’t be able to cover everything as deeply as we usually do given there are TWELVE matches today and tomorrow, but the exciting thing is we get to see four Challengers teams competing versus the big 12. The top eight will exit Friday with a chance at $250k, and we’ll get to see it happen starting now. Below is intel from the Call Of Duty League blog, get your fix and find a stream!
