Okay so, we all know no CoD game after CoD4 has been even remotely considered for competitive play, never mind promod.
But it seems that the whole TEK9/Promod community has taken alot to BO2, giving the status of CoD4 and the scene.
We need sponsors and a lift to the game, and BO2 seems to have it.
It's classed by the community as the only "playable" stock game for competitive since CoD4.
ESL/TEK9 already developed a ruleset for matches.(found below)
Thanks due to caesium for typing this out

Round win limit: 12. Just play 12 rounds on a half and then the host can end the game, you go back to the lobby, switch sides and go again for the 2nd half.
I've played it a hell of a lot myself lately and I must say, it's smooth, optimized and certainly playable.
The leagues and matchmaking systems are decent but it does make you want for dedicated servers when you're matched with a poor host.
TEK9 have a teamspeak server set up for mixes/scrims, so if you want to get involved, head on over at 85.236.100.27:10117.
There is no password.
We can make this a general mix thread, so drop your steam username and get playing.
I aint gotta move I got drillers that shoot, they're a bunch of misfits.
