Next in the COD League Championship 2020, we saw the two top teams, Atlanta Faze and Dallas Empire, who have played consistently well this season come head-to-head fighting it out for a place in the final. But it was second-seed, Dallas Empire, that proved to be the better team, winning 3-2 and putting one more match in Atlanta Faze way in order to reach the final.
The final match of the day at the COD League Championship 2020 was the Eliminations Finals with Chicago Huntsmen and Atlanta Faze both only one win away from the finals. These two top teams fought it out valiantly but ultimately Atlanta Faze secured a 3-1 win sending them through to Sunday’s final.
