Clayster addresses \u201chate\u201d over Black Ops Cold War\u2019s Control mode Call of Duty League \/ TreyarchBlack Ops Cold War\u2019s Control game mode has come under fire lately but 2020 Call of Duty League champion James \u2018Clayster\u2019 Eubanks has explained why the \u201chate\u201d is overblown. Each and every year in competitive CoD there are three modes in rotation. Both Hardpoint and Search and Destroy are often staples with each annual release. However, the third mode is usually in rotation depending on what\u2019s available. The 2019 season saw Domination make a return, for instance. This time around, Control is that third key playlist. This means all pro competitions throughout the upcoming season will feature the mode across an assortment of maps. It\u2019s just the second time in CoD history that Control has appeared after its introduction in 2018\u2019s Black Ops 4. While it was received well throughout its initial run, leading to some of the most exciting moments of the year, it\u2019s relaunch in Cold War hasn\u2019t been received quite as well. After a few days of backlash on social media, Clayster has explained why the \u201chate\u201d isn\u2019t justified. Now that the community is settling into Treyarch\u2019s new release, a proper meta has started to emerge. Assault Rifles outright dominate the game in its current form. As a result, Control can be challenging and players have been quick to voice their frustrations. \u201cIf there is no way to fix how hard it is to win Offenses, why wouldn\u2019t a game mode like demolition or CTF be a possibility for mode three?\u201d Reddit user \u2018jaydubb2\u2019 questioned. With so many ARs set up on Defense, it can be extremely tough to break into capture points on Offense. However, Clayster believes the \u201chate\u201d for the mode is a bit too much. Rather than complaining, players should instead \u201cfigure out how to win Offense,\u201d he stressed. \u201cNot just say it\u2019s chalked, Defense wins. There are methods.\u201d Seeing a lot of Control hate on the TL and the subreddit. Honestly, there\u2019s a couple Narnia spawns that will be (hopefully) cleaned up and with 45s capture time, offense becomes much easier. Gotta figure out how to win O not just say \u201cit\u2019s chalked D wins.\u201d There are methods. \u2014 Clayster (@Clayster) November 29, 2020 If these issues are patched over time, with spawns being dialed in and the capture time adjusted, Control could be back to the explosive mode it was in Black Ops 4. \u201cControl I feel like is a competitive game-mode from the core up,\u201d Clayster added. The mode isn\u2019t perfect in its current state, but with a few simple tweaks, it could be better than ever, according to the three-time world champion. \u201cHonestly, there\u2019s a couple Narnia spawns that will be (hopefully) cleaned up and with 45s capture time, offense becomes much easier.\u201d CTF will always be CTF. Control I feel like is a competitive game-mode from the core up, except for overtime rules. \u2014 Clayster (@Clayster) November 29, 2020 Early impressions have clearly been negative towards the mode. However, there\u2019s still plenty of time for things to change ahead of the CDL 2021 season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
