?Los Angeles Thieves did not handle the Stage 1 Major as well as everyone thought they would, finishing in fifth-sixth place with losses against Los Angeles Guerrillas (0-3) and OpTic Chicago (1-3). However, they dominated Toronto Ultra (3-0), which suggests they should do more than fine in Friday’s rematch.
That match with the Ultra was as one-sided as it can get, with Thieves winning 250-154 on Crossroads – Hardpoint, 6-1 at Moscow – S&D, and 3-2 on Checkmate – Control. The last map was relatively close, but Thieves always seemed to be in full control of the match.
It will be interesting to see how the Ultra perform now that they have benched Anthony “Methodz” Zinni, but even that roster change likely won’t be enough to turn things around.

?Paris Legion and Minnesota R?KKR both crashed out of the Stage 1 Major in the second round of the Elimination Bracket, where they lost to Florida Mutineers (1-3) and Toronto Ultra (2-3) respectively. There was not a lot to set these two sides apart during the regular season, which suggests we are in for a close bout on Friday when they meet for the first time in the campaign.
The R?KKR’s most notable results of the season include a 3-2 victory against Dallas Empire and 3-0 sweep of Seattle Surge. The Legion were just as impressive with wins against Florida Mutineers (3-0), Toronto Ultra (3-2), and a close 2-3 series against the Stage 1 champions, Atlanta FaZe.
Minnesota are the stronger team on paper, but Paris seem to be picking up the pace and look ready to cause an upset. The Legion are stronger than the latest Call of Duty League betting odds suggest and have a legitimate chance to win.
