A number of changes have been made to the official Call of Duty <\/em>World League ruleset for WWII<\/em>.<\/p>
Eric “Muddawg” Sanders, a former professional Call of Duty <\/em>player who now works behind the scenes with the CWL, revealed the newest additions to the ruleset in his official Reddit<\/a> post yesterday.<\/p>

The other new basic training is Shifty, which provides an additional pistol attachment and unlimited handgun ammunition. Shifty also ensures that your pistol ammo is always full when you switch to your handgun. That second part sounds particularly OP\u2014especially with the sudden rise in popularity of akimbo pistols<\/a> thanks to James “Clayster” Eubanks\u2014so it also makes sense that Shifty will be restricted from competitive play.<\/p>
Finally, Resistance<\/a> is the first Division added to WWII <\/em>since launch, and it’s already been banned from CWL play. The fourth skill in this Division provides a “mini-map indicator in the direction of close hostiles,” which is likely why Resistance was added to the restricted list.<\/p>
Muddawg said<\/a> that Resistance’s ban is “already reflected in esports modes within the game,” although Saboteur and Shifty are “currently unrestricted in esports modes.” But you won’t have to worry about dealing with any of these in competitive play.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
