The post New York Subliners unlikely to host Call of Duty Major 4 in 2023 appeared first on Esport Bet.
]]>This report is coming barely a day after the New York-based franchise brought home a Call of Duty League trophy to the City after putting in a great performance in the COD Major One tournament.
The Subliners defeated the Seattle Surge in the grand finals of CDL 2023 Major One in a best-of-seven series.
The Call of Duty League (CDL) 2023 Major Four was originally scheduled to be hosted by the New York Subliners (NYSL) in mid-April 2023. However, according to unconfirmed reports, the event will no longer be held in New York City as originally planned.
The Major Four was originally intended to be held at Kings Theatre, the venue where the New York Subliners (NYSL) had a strong performance in the fourth Major of the previous season. During that event, NYSL advanced through the upper bracket by defeating Minnesota R?KKR, Florida Mutineers, and the Los Angeles Thieves, thrilling the home crowd before ultimately losing in the grand finals to the Thieves.
The decision to move the Major to a different city is primarily due to the size of Kings Theatre, which may not be large enough to accommodate a CDL Challengers Open. In the previous year, the Challengers event took place at the Helix Esports facility in Foxborough, Massachusetts. However, it is said that there are some “disagreements” between NYXL, the managing organization of NYSL, and Oxygen Esports, the organization behind the Boston Breach.
The creative director at NYXL Matt Lucero had earlier given a statement where he revealed that New York is ready to host events in the future. The NYSL players and staff reportedly did not learn that Major Four would no longer be held in New York until they were already in Raleigh for the recent Major One event.
Inside sources at the New York Subliners (NYSL) also reported that the team is disappointed that it will not be able to host the 2023 Call of Duty League (CDL) Major Four event as planned. However, the team remains hopeful about hosting future events in New York.
The report also revealed that the Florida Mutineers are the top contenders to host the Major Four event. However, no official decision has been made yet. The location for the 2023 Call of Duty League (CDL) Championship has not been announced either. The Major Two event will be held in Boston, Major Three will take place in Texas, and Major Five is scheduled to be held in Toronto.
