As a long-time Call of Duty gamer and follower of the competitive scene, I have seen my fair share of trash-talk both in-game and on-stage. It’s a part of the culture, a way to psyche out your opponents and add an extra layer of excitement to the competition. But I also understand that there is a line where it becomes unsavory and unacceptable.
Trash-talking is a common occurrence, for better or worse, in the culture of Call of Duty. However, there’s a boundary beyond which this behavior becomes inappropriate and can tarnish CoD’s image.
Trash-talk plays a crucial role in Call of Duty competitions when executed properly. This was evident during the CDL World Championships this year, where long-standing feuds reached their boiling point and led to one of the most intense and fiercely contested events in history.
Approaching the Esports World Cup in Saudi Arabia, it’s important to note that the Call of Duty competitors are required to keep silent and refrain from any form of verbal banter or trash-talking.
Esports World Cup bans Call of Duty trash talk
According to the Esports World Cup rulebook, it’s essential for all competitors to uphold the highest ethical standards and exhibit superior sportsmanship at all times. Additionally, competitors must engage in professional and respectful communication with one another.

During the 2024 season, the Call of Duty League has experienced a significant rise in heated verbal exchanges between players on-stage. Much of this banter can be attributed to Thomas “Scrappy” Ernst, who has earned the title of “ruler of the skies and middle finger salutes” during live broadcasts.
However, it’s important to note that the EWC does not permit any form of obscene, offensive language, profanity, or inappropriate behavior in participant tags, player names, team branding, game chats, live play conversations, lobby chats, broadcast content, interviews, or any other public communications.
In simple terms, this idea is applicable to the English language as well as to others. Previously, Scrappy managed to learn Spanish and French solely to engage in trash-talk with his European opponents.
The rulebook states that participants should conduct themselves in a polite and fair-minded way when engaging with other participants, teams, administration staff, media representatives, sponsors, and spectators.
As a gamer, I’d like to emphasize that it’s crucial for all participants to resolve disputes in a courteous way, avoiding any form of aggression, threats, or bullying. Some fans find this guideline a bit too formal or old-fashioned, with one critic commenting, “To be honest, it feels a bit cheesy.” Another player questioned whether the organizers have ever experienced online gaming, asking, “Have the organizers never been in a Call of Duty lobby?” A third fan jokingly predicted, “With these rules, we’re probably going to have someone getting arrested on day one. Good game!”
1. In general, CDL graduates tend to maintain control over their emotions; however, if teams like Toronto Ultra and Atlanta FaZe go head-to-head, things are likely to escalate dramatically.
