In advance of CDL Major 4, the Florida Mutineers and the Paris Legion have adjusted their rosters. Paris signs talented rookie Giancarlos “oJohnny” Carrasco, while veteran Brendan “2ReaL” Stockdale is joining Florida.
Florida Mutineers adds 2ReaL
2ReaL will make his CDL Major debut with the Florida Mutineers after competing in different Challengers leagues for the last three years. Despite what appeared to be ordinary play at the most recent Challengers, he returned to Vanguard with a series of outstanding performances.
A rookie that has proven himself in trials.

Earlier, 2ReaL was a part of the Shady Kings, and his outstanding performances helped the team establish their domination in the NA Challengers. During his tenure with the Shady Kings, the team won the Toronto Open, and finished second in the NA COD Challengers 2022 – Elite 3 and COD Challengers 2022 – Cup 11.
Even though the veteran is already a good addition to the squad because of his individual skills, his synergy with Mutineers’ recent addition Michael “MajorManiak” Szymaniak makes him a perfect match. MajorManiak and 2ReaL have been side by side for several weeks and now its time for the duo to use their skills for the Mutineers and help them secure a playoffs spot at Major 4. 2ReaL will make his CDL debut tomorrow as Florida Mutineers play the New York Subliners in an online qualifier match today.
Florida Mutineers’ roster for Major 4 Qualifiers
- Cesar “Skyz” Bueno
- Joseph “Owakening” Conley
- Michael “MajorManiak” Szymaniak
- Brendan “2ReaL” Stockdale
- David “Davpadie” Maslowski (Substitue)
- Christian “Yeez” Faircloth (Substitute)
With 110 CDL points, Florida and Minnesota RKKR are tied for the ninth position. The team is hoping for a higher finish at Major 4 because only the top eight teams go to the Worlds. To overtake Los Angeles Thieves, who are in eighth place, and Los Angeles Guerrillas, who are in seventh place, the squad needs twenty more points.
Paris Legion signs oJohnny
Giancarlos “oJohnny” Carrasco has joined Paris Legion to replace Johnathan “John” Perez ahead of the Major 4 Qualifiers. The decision comes as a result of the team’s persistently subpar showings at nearly every CDL competition in 2022. Despite the team’s slim chances of making Major 4 with only 20 CDL Points, Paris is adjusting the roster for future leagues.
