Three ways CDL teams can finally beat Atlanta FaZe
Atlanta FaZe are the unanimous number one team in the Call of Duty League this season — but how can their opposition beat them? Here’s what they need to do.
Atlanta have been borderline unstoppable all season. Their Stage 2 Major loss to Toronto Ultra was a serious shock, but since then they seem to have only become an even better squad, with losses very few and far between.
That said, they have lost. As well as their shock loss to LA Guerrillas earlier in the season, they’ve been beaten by both Toronto Ultra and New York Subliners (twice).
So, what’s the secret? What do teams need to do to make beating FaZe a real possibility on more than a one-off basis?
OnReverse SweepRound 11, Andrew ‘Enigma’ Campion pointed out the three key areas in which teams can capitalize and take advantage of Atlanta, helping secure the win. Here’s what he came up with.
Obviously, when coming up against a team like Atlanta FaZe, even their weaknesses would be recognized as strengths with other teams. Sure, you may target their ‘weaker’ maps, but they’re still going to be a formidable opponent.
That said, with these three key things in mind, it will be interesting to see whether teams take heed against them at the Stage 4 Major and consider these points. It could be the difference between an early exit or Major victory.
