343iBot Posted July 5, 2020 Report Share Posted July 5, 2020 Activision has announced that the upcoming Call of Duty League post-season schedule--including the Championship--will be held as a virtual tournament, not an in-person LAN event as has been the case in the past. The announcement is not a big surprise, as the regular season took place online due to the COVID-19 crisis. With the pandemic still gripping the USA and other parts of the world, this year's event has moved to an online-only setup. "Due to continuing health risks associated with COVID-19 and our collective priority focus on protecting the safety of our teams, players, league staff, and partner personnel, the remainder of the season will be held online," Activision said in a news release.

This will give League officials the ability to ensure players are not keeping things above the line.

"Once a match reaches an official ready check status, players will need to be seated and on camera."
