After a short stint in Challengers, Michael ‘MajorManiak’ Szymaniak is returning to the CDL with the Florida Mutineers ahead of Major 4 and Champs.
MajorManiak burst onto the scene as a Search and Destroy player during Black Ops 3, and was part of the Minnesota RØKKR from the start of the Call of Duty: Vanguard season up until April 2022, when they brought in Colt ‘Havok’ McLendon.
As a member of WhateverItTakes and then Shady Kings, MajorManiak placed second in four straight Challengers events and won the CDC Toronto Open with 2Real, Brack, and Neptune.
Florida currently sits at 10th in the CDL standings and is just 10 points outside of the Champs qualifying spots. Now, they’re calling on some AR leadership to make one final push for a CDL 2022 Champs berth.
