This article explores a surprising twist in a major esports organization's recent announcement, examining a rebranding move that had fans questioning the future location of the team.
Originally, the league was envisioned as a worldwide competition, but it has evolved into a contest primarily centered in North America. At present, there is just one team outside this region—the recently revamped and moved Riyadh Falcons. The remaining competitors are all positioned in the United States or Canada, a setup that continues to be maintained.
In a recent development, G2 Esports revealed a change in the branding of its Minnesota Rokkr squad. The announcement initially hinted at a potential shift to Berlin, Germany, aligning with the base of the parent organization. However, it soon became clear that this indication was intended to misdirect, as confirmations followed that the team would remain in Minnesota while assuming the new identity of G2 Minnesota.
The pressing issue now centers on which competitors G2 Minnesota will choose to represent them in the upcoming Call of Duty League season, scheduled to commence in December.
