Format

For the 2022 season, teams will play at four Majors on a hybrid online/LAN model. Each Major will take place over the course of 4 weeks, with each team playing online qualifying matches during the first three weeks against five random teams. After these three weeks the standings will be used to seed the teams for the major, with the bottom 4 teams starting in the Elimination Bracket.^[7]

In the middle of the season professional and amateur players will play against each other in a Pro-am tournament, and a Call of Duty: Warzone tournament featuring Call of Duty League pro players, streamers, and other influencers will be organized as well.^[8]

To start the season, all twelve teams played against each other on January 21 through January 23, 2022, at the Esports Stadium Arlington in Arlington, Texas. Two weeks later, on February 4 through February 6, the 2022 season officially started with the first matches being played online.^[8] The online qualifiers for Major I ended on February 20, with the Major being hosted by OpTic Texas on March 3 through March 6.
