Second official Call of Duty Championship set for March

Activision to host 32 teams competing for $1m in prizes

Activision will host its second Call of Duty Championship from March 28 to 30 in Los Angeles, the publisher announced Thursday.

The championship will draw 32 teams from around the world to compete for a total of $1 million in prize money. Players will compete in Call of Duty: Ghosts on Xbox One, with qualifying events in leading months held online and in person by international eSports organizations.

Regional tournaments and the finals will be broadcasted live on MLG.tv from late February through March.

Team Fariko Impact took home $400,000 USD in prize money after besting EnVyUs at last year's championship, which was also held in Los Angeles with a $1 million prize pool.

Infinity Ward has promised several impending adjustments to the game meant to improve its competitive play experience. The studio said Ghosts' spawning system is a particular area of development focus aside from thwarting cheaters and rebalancing weapons.

chevyrydinhigh2 coL going to win.. I hope anyway. Teams are getting stronger and looking harder to beat though


Honestly, I'm thinking the new Optic roster looks pretty good. Ricky, Nadeshot, Clayster and Parasite with BigT coaching. Honestly, I think they have a good shot.


Also the new nv team is going to be pretty strong.


Optic will take it to prove a point I can see it I can see it


No one has mentioned Faze... they are pretty good too at competitive
I never knew there were so many competitive COD followers on TTG...
I will always follow competitive cod if there wasn't competitive cod I would even play video games

UMF Competitive COD is stupid. There's thousands of better players out there than these "pros"


You don't have to be considered 'Pro' there's qualifiers around the world to get into COD Champs, so anyone has a chance

Can't wait to see who will pull of the win. Should be a good one to watch.

It is called "eSport", not "Sport".

I see the word "sport" in "eSport."

MrTeamplayer2 I don't get why they call it a sport. Video games and sports don't go together at all because they are nothing alike. Just a way that nerds can be called athletes I guess.

I can't see it being fun to watch seeing as Ghost's will be being played, Black Ops 2 was so much more fun to watch. Honestly wish there was another year of competitive Black Ops 2 instead of Ghosts.
