Enable: CDL posting OpTic vs FaZe \u2018Inside the Comms\u2019 video was too far Activision\/YouTube: Dexerto Call of DutyDuring the latest episode of the Reverse Sweep CDL review show, Ian \u2018Enable\u2019 Wyatt, Jonathan \u2018Pacman\u2019 Tucker and Katie Bedford discussed the controversial \u2018Inside the Comms\u2019 video posted by the CDL. Taken from the Opening Weekend of the Call of Duty League\u2019s 2021 season, the League posted a 9-minute video of the comms between OpTic Chicago and Atlanta FaZe. It consisted of a whole lot of trash talk and behind-the-scenes discussion that, typically, would remain solely behind the curtain. After it was posted online for fans to see, many pros were astounded, including the OpTic players who were very clearly upset about it. As former pros themselves, Enable and Pacman discussed the situation on Reverse Sweep \u2014 and both believe that it was wrong of the CDL to post, especially without the players\u2019 consent.

Katie added the very important point that if you\u2019re giving teams the illusion of privacy, the CDL should have at least sent teams the video first to ask which parts should be cut. Needless to say, the video caused a huge stir, and the league will definitely be a little more careful next time they post an Inside the Comms video.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
