Call of Duty League Betting Picks December 13, 2024
Minnesota ROKKR (+135) Over Cloud9 New York
Minnesota ROKKR is off to a 2-0 start in the 2025 season. They have won six of their ten games so far this year and sit in fourth place in the overall standings.
The G2 Esports team started their 2025 campaign with a 3-2 win over Boston Breach. That match contained a 250-245 harpoint win on Vault as well as a 6-4 search & destroy victory on Skyline and a 6-5 search and destroy win on Rewind.
Minnesota ROKKR took down Los Angeles Guerrillas M8 3-2 in their second match of the season. Once again they logged a hardpoint victory on Vault winning 250-243 in that game. They notched another win on Vault, logging a 3-2 control win later in the match. As they did against their last opponent, Minnesota ROKKR closed out the match with a 6-5 search & destroy win on Rewind.
Cloud9 New York is still searching for their first win in the new season. They are 0-2 and have only a single game win under their belts so far this year.
The New York based squad is vulnerable on Vault having lost two of their three games on that map. They also have suffered heavy losses on both Redcard and Rewind.
Given Minnesota ROKKR has shown strength on maps on which their opponents have struggled makes this plus money bet a fantastic value. A $10 wager will bring back a $13.50 profit.
Boston Breach (+115) Over Miami Heretics
Boston Breach enters the weekend 1-1 to begin their 2025 season. Their only blemish is a 3-2 loss to Minnesota ROKKR to open the regular season. They are an even 5-5 in their games this year.
Most recently, the Kraft Sports Group team came away with an upset win against Optic Texas, the 2024 league champions. That match was settled 3-2 overall with a 6-2 search 7 destroy win on Rewind as well as a 250-185 hardpoint win on Rewind along with a search & destroy win on the same map.
Miami Heretics also come into this matchup with a 1-1 season record although with a 5-3 overall game record on the year.
They started out with a 3-2 loss to Vancouver Surge in which they picked up two wins in their first three maps before dropping the final two. Following that was an impressive 3-0 win against Vegas Falcons.
In this case, we’ll give the edge to the team that has had the tougher schedule to start the season. The fact that Boston Breach is coming off of a huge upset win should give them the confidence to do it again this week.
You stand to enjoy an $11.50 profit from your $10 bet here.

LA Guerrillas M8 to Win at Least 1 Map (-110)
LA Guerrillas M8 has a 3-6 game record so far this season. They have won at least one map in each of their first two matches of the season. On top of that, they have done so against two of the four undefeated teams in the league.
One map in particular has been productive for this Los Angeles based squad as Vault has produced two wins for them. They also picked up a victory on Skyline against Minnesota ROKKR earlier this year.
This will play in their favor should they draw Vault early in the match. Their opponents, Los Angeles Thieves, have two losses on that map already this year.
