SYDNEY, Australia – 15 May 2017 –The road to the Call of Duty World League Championship 2017 Presented by PlayStation®4 (CWL) has taken another big step with MINDFREAK winning the CWL Sydney Open II. The three-day tournament hosted at the ESL Studios in Sydney saw some of the most intense competition yet as more than 30 teams competed.  While Team MINDFREAK took home top honours, teams ORACLE and RAGE rounded out the top three placements.

“We came into the Sydney Open 2 competition with the intention of reinforcing our status as the top team in APAC, so we’re very pleased with the result. We are training hard and always striving to improve, so we’re excited for the rest of the season.”

– Mitchell “Buzzo” Mader, captain of Mindfreak.
