Over the last three days, Dot Esports surveyed over 20 Call of Duty League coaches and general managers with a pool of questions that included who they believe are the best players are in the league right now, the most impressive Challengers players so far, the worst map in each game mode, and if Berlin should be added into the Control map set rotation.
Shotzzy, Cellium, and Dashy are, of course, at the top of the voting when it comes to the best player at each position. Shotzzy was also voted as the best player in the game right now.
Havok was voted as the most impressive Challengers player so far this season. Toronto Ultra’s substitute and academy player Scrappy came in second, while KiSMET and European player Wardy tied for third.
Control has been a controversial topic this season. With only two maps in the current rotation for Vanguard, players, coaches, and fans have been begging for a third map option since the beginning of the season. Thankfully, Sledgehammer released a spawn update that included changes to Berlin Control. And judging by the results of today’s survey, the map is now completely viable for competitive play.
Spart made his mark on the league during Major Two in a unique fashion. He introduced the Volk into the meta, but it wasn’t long before it was evidently restricted via gentlemen’s agreement. So we asked coaches and general managers about their thoughts on the weapon and over half of them agreed with the decision.
Finishing off the survey, we asked how happy coaches and general managers are with how the league has been run so far this season, what Sledgehammer’s communication has been like with changes to the game that affect competitive aspects for Vanguard, and how they’d rate Vanguard overall.
