Los Angeles Thieves are the defending Major champions and the most in-form team of the stage, having not only won Major 3 but also Minor 4.
Meanwhile, the Carolina Royal Ravens have shown flashes of greatness in stage 4 but have yet to prove they have the tools to compete with the world’s best teams.
LA Thieves have proven themselves to be the team to beat in Major 4, and given their form ahead of the trip to France, the Thieves should not struggle to kick off the Major with a win.
- LA Thieves are the most in-form team in the CDL
- The Carolina Royal Ravens are unproven
- A quick win for LA Thieves is expected

Los Angeles Thieves Are Expected to Dominate
Los Angeles Thieves are the hottest team in the CDL. They’ve won Major 3, Minor 4, and Major 4 qualifiers, solidifying their status as the team to beat in France.
As it seems, the NPC meta has benefited the LA Thieves significantly, and it is fair to say that they’re the only team in the league that has benefited from the meta shift.
Still, LA Thieves have had some close calls in the online stage, which they finished with a perfect 5-0 record, but also two narrow victories against Boston Breach (3-2) and G2 Minnesota (3-2) – suggesting that the Thieves are not as invincible as they may appear.
Nevertheless, the Thieves are on a 13-game winning streak and just one victory away from breaking the CDL record. And they could’ve not asked for an easier opponent in the upper bracket.
| Date | Event | Opponent | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| June 20 | CDL 2026 Stage 4 Major Qualifiers | Vancouver Surge | 3-0 (W) |
| June 19 | CDL 2026 Stage 4 Major Qualifiers | Cloud9 New York | 3-1 (W) |
| June 14 | CDL 2026 Stage 4 Major Qualifiers | G2 Minnesota | 3-2 (W) |
| June 13 | CDL 2026 Stage 4 Major Qualifiers | Boston Breach | 3-2 (W) |
| June 7 | CDL 2026 Stage 4 Minor | OpTic Texas | 4-2 (W) |

Carolina Royal Ravens Have a Mountain to Climb
Carolina Royal Ravens have had their moments in CDL Major 4 qualifiers, or better said, they’ve had one notable moment, when they upset OpTic Texas. Besides that, the Royal Ravens have not shown much, with a 3-0 sweep of Toronto KOI as their only other victory of the qualifiers.
On the other hand, Carolina Royal Ravens got smoked by Paris Gentle Mates, and FaZe Vegas, and lost a map-five series to the Riyadh Falcons.
The big question with this team is whether the Royal Ravens will welcome back Eli "Standy" Bentz, who has been out of action since June 18. In his place, the Royal Ravens brought in KnoX, but he is inexperienced and more of a liability than anything else.
| Date | Event | Opponent | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| June 22 | CDL 2026 Stage 4 Major Qualifiers | FaZe Vegas | 0-3 (L) |
| June 15 | CDL 2026 Stage 4 Major Qualifiers | Riyadh Falcons | 2-3 (L) |
| June 13 | CDL 2026 Stage 4 Major Qualifiers | OpTic Texas | 3-2 (W) |
| June 5 | CDL 2026 Stage 4 Minor | Riyadh Falcons | 2-3 (L) |
| May 30 | CDL 2026 Stage 4 Major Qualifiers | Paris Gentle Mates | 0-3 (L) |
Carolina Royal Ravens Squad & Team News
Carolina Royal Ravens signed KnoX as the newest addition on June 18.
- Logan "Lurqxx" Brown
- Kaden "Exceed" Stockdale
- Luis "Fire" Rivera
- Hakem "KnoX" Al-Shaibani
Verdict
Carolina Royal Ravens are not only in a worse shape, having won just two games in the qualifiers, but are likely going to continue without Standy and with KnoX in the active roster. This will not do them any favours when facing the league’s most in-form team and the current Major 4 favourites.
