LA Thieves Blasted Out of COD Champs After G2 Reverse Sweep
LA Thieves experienced a stunning upset elimination from the Call of Duty League Championship in Las Vegas, falling to G2 Minnesota in a reverse sweep. The result proved particularly shocking given G2’s lower ranking among the eight competing teams in the tournament lineup. The loss also came notably just hours after Scrap was named the season’s MVP and teammate Nium was awarded Rookie of the Year honors, making the early exit even more disappointing.
The early exit marked a troubling conclusion to what appeared to be a strong season for LA Thieves. Despite boasting award-winning individual performances from their roster, the team failed to secure any series victories throughout the championship tournament, becoming one of only two organizations—alongside Toronto KOI—to be eliminated without winning a single match.
The upset result highlights the unpredictable nature of professional Call of Duty competition, demonstrating that individual accolades and regular-season success do not guarantee championship performance. G2 Minnesota’s upset victory over the heavily favored LA Thieves underscores the competitive depth of the league.
