Atlanta FaZe win closest Grand Final in CDL history

Call of Duty League Major 1 has wrapped up, with 2025’s first big major being historic for a number of teams.

From both Miami Heretics and Carolina Royal Ravens having their best performances ever to LA Thieves dragging themselves out of the mud and getting into championship shape mere weeks after some incredibly disappointing matches before Major 1, it’s been one of the most hype CDL Majors ever.

It came down to a BO7 Grand Final that went the distance, with LA Thieves and Atlanta FaZe keeping it a nailbiter of a set until the very end. Ultimately, only one team could win, and that team was FaZe.

LA Thieves got too hasty with the bomb on the very last Search and Destroy round, resulting in them getting trounced by FaZe at the very last moment. An unfortunate end to one of the closest Majors in CoD history.

Here’s the full schedule so you can catch up on how the tournament went down.
