Call of Duty League reveals first version of Modern Warfare competitive ruleset

Domination returns to competitive CoD.

Less than one week after the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, the game’s franchised league, the Call of Duty League, has revealed its competitive ruleset.

The ruleset, which will definitely change as the season’s inaugural season approaches, includes three game modes: Hardpoint, Search and Destroy, and Domination. But the league has said both the map and modes “may change at a later date,” and that pro players are “heavily involved in this process.”

Here are the maps for three game modes.

Hardpoint

  • Arklov Peak
  • Azhir Cave
  • Gun Runner
  • Hackney Yard
  • Rammaza
  • St. Petrograd

Search and Destroy

  • Arklov Peak
  • Azhir Cave
  • Gun Runner
  • Hackney Yard
  • Piccadilly
  • Rammaza
  • St. Petrograd

Domination

  • Gun Runner
  • Hackney Yard
  • Rammaza
  • St. Petrograd

As is the usually the case, Light Machine Guns, Shotguns, and the Riot Shield have been banned in the ruleset. Several scorestreaks and perks have also been restricted.

The general rules for each game mode are pretty much the same from Black Ops 4, though. But Domination was not a part of competitive last season, so it may take players a little bit to get back to playing the mode competitively.

The full list of rules and restricted items is available on the Call of Duty League website.
