Competitors are warned that they need to finalize their rosters by January 20th at 6:00 pm EST. Once the deadline his hit, teams will no longer be able to change their roster, so choose wisely!

Teams have also been given a heads up about the equipment that they’ll be gaming on, which includes an ASUS VG245H monitor, a PlayStation 4 Pro, and a CronusMax CM00049 USB Device.

That’s all the details that have been given at this time about the Call of Duty Challenger’s 25K Series tournament in Minnesota. There will be more of these LAN tournaments through the Call of Duty League regular season, and players will also be able to fill in the gaps by playing in their geographical area whenever one of the Call of Duty League teams hosts a 10K Series tournament. And of course, there are online events.

Teams have already started battling it out in the Call of Duty Challengers’ league, but the real competition is about the begin!
