The Call of Duty League has thrived with some of the biggest esports brands in the world making signature designs for their players to sport whilst attending events, and dropping them for fans to represent their chosen team.

Throughout the years, sides like OpTic Gaming have been renowned for their classic green and white designs that have become a collector's item for the Green Wall fanatics. The original jerseys as worn by the likes of Matthew "Nadeshot" Haag, Will "BigTymeR" Johnson and Seth "Scump" Abner have seen OpTic grow to be one of the most recognisable outfits in esports.

Now, with Hector "Hecz" Rodriguez regaining the branding rights for OpTic, and the likes of 100 Thieves, NRG, FaZe Clan, and Rekt Global boasting teams within the league, merchandise will be as important as ever. A need to create revenue with no home series ticket sales, the 2021 jerseys will be paramount to some of the sides' futures.

Going into the second season, one fan has created a full set of 2021 concept jerseys, and they're stunning. Lium Uk posted his designs to Call of Duty Competitive Reddit, showcasing some clean kits.

Each concept incorporates the teams' colours and brands, alongside their main sponsors splashed across the front. In a typical football style, the kits are tight and short-sleeved but would make a huge splash in the booths at a LAN.

Elements of the kits such as Seattle Surges's tidal wave, Toronto Ultra's Dark Matter-esque fluorescent purple swirls, and OpTic Chicago's clean white torso make these designs much more personalised and tailored to each team. The Florida Mutineers' sea-green top is even finished off with a touching memorial to the late Maurice "Fero" Henriquez, with his name etched into a black armband.

Whether or not teams will look to use similar styles to these are yet to be seen, although there will be some burning wallets should they come to fruition. I'll take all 12 please.
