Los Angeles Guerrillas enter CDL Major 2 with a 2-3 record from the qualifiers, with wins against Los Angeles Thieves (3-1) and Minnesota RØKKR (3-1), which is nothing to sneeze at. But they’ve also lost against Boston Breach (0-3), Toronto Ultra (1-3), and Atlanta FaZe, who they forced to five maps (2-3).
The Guerrillas’ Hardpoint is very good, but their Control and Search & Destroy still look weak compared to other top teams, which makes it hard to rank them very high. And they already lost against Toronto Ultra a few days ago.
Toronto Ultra are a very solid team, with only one minor issue – they tend to be shaky in game fives. But outside of that, the Ultra look like the main contender to win the second Major. They have the talent, a strong map pool, and are very consistent across all three game modes.
Toronto Ultra have an excellent chance to go all the way, and it’s highly unlikely that Los Angeles Guerrillas will stop them.
Toronto Ultra -1.5 maps

OpTic Texas suffered a shock loss against Las Vegas Legion (1-3) in the final week of qualifiers but then picked up a nice win against Atlanta FaZe to finish CDL Major 2 Qualifier with a 4-1 record. Overall, OpTic have been playing well, with the form they’re currently in, they look capable of beating any team in the league.
Los Angeles Thieves ended the qualifiers with a fairly poor 2-3 record, but they ended it on a high note – with a victory (3-2) against Boston Breach. The main thing to take away from the Thieves’ games is that their Control is solid, but they’re still lacking in Search & Destroy.
Unsurprisingly, Los Angeles Thieves are priced as underdogs for this bout, but this is a decent squad that is slowly finding its way. Moreover, we can be sure that the Thieves will enter this bout well-prepared and should make life hard for OpTic.
