For the second time in a row, the Vegas Legion made the Winners Bracket. Coming into the day, they were 20 points away from the No.8 seed to make CDL Champs. Every game for them is vital to them making it to the Postseason. Unfortunately for them, they draw one of the best teams in the CDL, the Atlanta FaZe. The match started off rough for them, going down 100 points on Embassy Hardpoint. They brought it back to a respectable score, but it wasn't enough, as FaZe beat them 179-250. The rest of the match didn't go their way, losing 1-6 on Asilo SnD and 1-3 on Asilo Control. They move to the Loser's Bracket and their Champs hopes are looking grim.

With the final weekend of the Call of Duty League Stage 5 Qualifiers coming up, the Minnesota Røkkr make a surprising roster move, bringing Dillon "Attach" Price back to the starting lineup and sending Marcus "Afro" Reid to the bench. With Attach being the Main AR before getting benched, a role change is also needed after Kevin "Fame" Bonanno took that spot in the last roster move. Being mainly a Sub in Challengers, he could move to the 2nd Sub, with Ben "Bance" Bance moving to the Main Sub, putting Attach back at Main AR, leaving Cameron "Cammy" McKilligan in the Flex role.

Even though the New York Subliners didn't play today, they were able to clinch their spot in the Call of Duty League Champs bracket, with the Vegas Legion losing to Atlanta FaZe. They were a lock in our preview of what teams will be the next to clinch a spot in Champs. While their seeding is far from locked in, the next two weeks will be crucial if they want to out-seed two of the best teams in the CDL. The final weekend of the regular season will keep things interesting and exciting for players and fans, with Champs just around the corner.

During the Qualifiers in the final Major of the Call of Duty League, the London Royal Ravens get bounced from a spot at Champs by the Los Angeles Guerrillas on the second weekend of Stage 5. London put themselves in a tough spot to make Champs from subpar performances throughout the year and lacked the ability to close out tight games.

Major 4 of the Call of Duty League didn't go exactly as Boston Breach hoped. They squeaked into the 6th seed after Qualifiers before quickly getting bounced to the Losers Bracket in the first round by OpTic Texas. A loss shortly after that to the Toronto Ultra spelled the end of the tournament for them. Boston announced Tuesday, April 25, that they were moving Dylan "Nero" Koch to the bench and bringing back Reece "Vivid" Drost to the starting roster after being replaced by Kyle "Kremp" Haworth on April 4.

It all started by swimming around Hydro. They are two of the worst teams when it comes to rotations but also two of the best at holding points. It was a tightly contested match, but the Thieves take the close fight, 250-200. On Hotel SnD, Drazah specifically has been dominant. But OpTic steals this one, 6-3. After a tough round, the Thieves regained and took Expo Control, 3-1. Playing OpTic in Fortress Hardpoint is never ideal. Ghosty took over the round with 29 kills, leading OpTic to a 250-138 round win. Back to SnD we go, with the Thieves looking dominant. They win 6-4 and are a game away from being crowned Champs. The Thieves dominated Asilo Control, winning a close round, 3-2. The Los Angeles Thieves are your Call of Duty League Major 4 Champions, with Sam "Octane" Larew winning MVP.
After losing to Atlanta FaZe in the Winners Bracket and being sent to the Losers Bracket to face the Los Angeles Guerrillas, Pred gave us the performance of the year. He was popping off the entire round, keeping Seattle in Control for most of the match. The Guerrillas brought it to game five, allowing Pred to continue slaying. He ended the match with 119 kills, setting the 2023 Call of Duty League record in kills for an entire match, breaking the previous record held by OpTic Texas Brandon "Dashy" Otell (115).
