The Call of Duty League has officially announced Vanguard’s first rulest for the 2022 season including modes, maps, and banned items.
Since Vanguard’s launch, players had the option to enable a CDL ruleset in custom games but we now have an official system from the league itself.
While we still don’t have a third game mode, we can at least take a look at the restricted items and maps for Hardpoint and Search and Destroy.
Some notable things include all ammo types being banned while damage mags remain available. However, this list doesn’t include any Gentlemen’s Agreements that CDL pros are known for making after the rules are released so we could see some items not used this season that aren’t technically banned. Here’s what version 1.0 of the CDL rules looks like.
The MP40 is a reliable SMG in competitive Vanguard that only gets better with the right attachments.CDL Ruleset V1.0
