This article provides a fresh account of recent developments surrounding an esports organization and its status for an upcoming major tournament.

Later this month, the premier Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 event will take place at the Esports World Cup, gathering 16 teams. Interestingly, the competition will not be entirely run by Call of Duty League squads. Out of 12 league rosters, several will be absent for various reasons.

One such roster is that of Carolina Royal Ravens, which will not be in attendance. They were unable to comply with tournament arrangement conditions, primarily because they finalized player signings and altered their roster too close to the scheduled event. This breach of protocol led to their disqualification by the tournament organizers.

In their official statement, the organization expressed significant disappointment. They mentioned that despite earnest efforts to secure an arrangement with the tournament officials, participation for this year’s event was not approved. Additionally, they extended their wishes for success to the teams that will be competing.

  • The disqualification was caused by roster changes and signing players shortly before the tournament.
  • The Carolina team’s spot was reassigned.
  • The position will now be occupied by the competitive team known as FiveFears, who are scheduled to appear on July 24.
