The Match of the Week in Week 2 of the North American Call of Duty World League Pro Division, presented by PlayStation 4 was compLexity against Team eLevate!
In Stage 2, we have seen top teams make roster changes that seem objectively advantageous, but that are noticeably rough to navigate early on. compLexity made a roster change before Stage 2, bringing on Goonjar in place of Parasite, and it seems like the new team has not been able to click thus far.
eLevate has also been having a rough Stage 2 start. They went 0-2 in Week 1 and went into their matchup against compLexity with a 0-3 record after losing to OpTic Gaming in their first match of Week 2. eLevate recently made a roster change as well, bringing on former Counter Logic Gaming player Felony in place of Remy.
Game 1 Hardpoint was the eLevate show. They came out with a stomping win of 250-100 over compLexity. Search and Destroy was the same story, as eLevate took it 6-1. compLexity are known for their good S&D plays, but eLevate made better decisions, taking the map quite easily.

Game 3 Uplink started out in favor of eLevate, with them holding the lead going into the half, but it all fell apart when compLexity finally showed some sign of life and was able to avoid the 0-3 sweep with a 10-7 win on Fringe Uplink.
Things went in eLevate’s favor in the next round, which was Capture the Flag. They were able to close Game 4 out 2-1 and get their first win in Stage 2 of the CWL!
GG! @eLevateGG wins CTF 2-1 and takes the series 3-1 vs. @compLexityLive! #CODWorldLeaguehttps://t.co/LYwwN9z0V3
