Crimsix confirms player union \u201cis in the works\u201d for Call of Duty League Activision[jwplayer nosJWvz1] Dallas Empire\u2019s Ian \u2018Crimsix\u2019 Porter has revealed that a player union is \u201cin the works\u201d among Call of Duty League players heading into the league\u2019s second season. For some time, both fans and players alike have speculated that Call of Duty pros could or should create a players union to better protect the interests of competitors, the esport and the league. We\u2019ve seen similar unions created in other esports; the Counter-Strike Professional Players\u2019 Association is made up of some of the top names in CS:GO, while the NALCS Players Association exists to help League of Legends pros in North America. Now, after the first season of franchising in Call of Duty, it appears that Call of Duty players are looking to follow suit to further enhance their careers. With rostermania kicking off, and a switch from 5v5 gameplay to 4v4, there are major changes coming to the Call of Duty League \u2014 but this one is slightly different to what fans are used to. In his appearance on Anthony \u2018NAMELESS\u2019 Wheeler\u2019s CoDcast podcast with Jonathan \u2018Pacman\u2019 Tucker, Crim was asked a question from a fan about whether a players association will ever happen \u2014 and revealed that it\u2019s actually already being created. \u201cIt\u2019s already done,\u201d he said. \u201cI don\u2019t think it\u2019s like\u2026 It\u2019s in the works. That\u2019s all I\u2019m going to say.\u201d Timestamp 1:22:50 Crim was also asked who is heading up the players union, and joked about it being Austin \u2018SlasheR\u2019 Liddicoat before saying that he can\u2019t actually reveal any more about it. How exactly the association would proceed and help the esport remains to be seen, but if it\u2019s in the works, we should know before long who\u2019s involved and what exactly its role would be as it pertains to the Call of Duty League.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
