Black Ops Cold War's League Play is the best place to play like the pros and test your skill in Season 4, so we've got the best loadouts you need to dominate competitive Call of Duty.

League Play is the ultimate way to play like the pros in Call of Duty without needing a full squad of friends to team up with on websites such as Gamebattles. This mode simulates the Call of Duty League, using the same maps and modes as you'll see on the CDL stream.

You can now earn in-game rewards for playing League Play, such as exclusive weapon charms, Calling Cards, and even Weapon Blueprints later in Season 4.

League Play has only got more competitive, so you'll need the best weapons, perks, Field Upgrades, and more to win. Here's everything you need to dominate Black Ops Cold War's League Play.

  • Best League Play primary weapons
  • Best League Play secondary weapons
  • Best League Play Tacticals and Lethals
  • Best League Play perks
  • Best League Play Field Upgrade
  • Best League Play Wildcards

Best League Play primary weapons

Your primary weapon is the be-all and end-all of your class. You won't be able to use the Law Breaker Wildcard to equip two primaries, so what you pick is what you'll need to use.

No matter your role, here are the best primary weapons you can use in Cold War Season 4's League Play.

Krig-6 Assault Rifle League Play class

Black ops cold war Krig 6
  • Optic: Millstop Reflex
  • Barrel: 19.7″ Ranger Barrel
  • Underbarrel: Field Agent Grip
  • Grip: Airborne Elastic Wrap
  • Stock: Raider Stock

The Krig-6 is a great choice for any player looking to lock down spawns or hold an objective. We decided to use Atlanta FaZe's Chris 'Simp' Lehr's loadout for the Krig, due to the versatility of the loadout combined with the great strafe speed and barrel choice. Its headshot multiplier even received a buff in Season 3, so make sure to aim high.

XM4 League Play class

black ops cold war xm4

For this XM4 loadout, we went with OpTic's Seth 'Scump' Abner's mobile and fast-paced XM4 class. To use these attachments, you'll need the Gunfighter wildcard for additional attachments. Since League Play does not have restrictions on laser sights, you can feel free to equip the Steady Aim Laser.

  • Optic: Microflex LED
  • Muzzle: Infantry Compensator
  • Barrel: 13.7″ Ranger
  • Body: Steady Aim Laser
  • Underbarrel: Field Agent Grip
  • Magazine: 40 Round
  • Handle: Airborne Elastic Wrap
  • Stock: Raider Pad

AK-74u League Play class

Black Ops Cold War Ak-74u
  • Muzzle: Spetsnaz Compensator
  • Barrel: 9.3″ Extended
  • Underbarrel: Spetsnaz Speed Grip
  • Handle: GRU Elastic Wrap
  • Stock: Raider Stock

The AK-74u is one of Cold War's strongest SMGs. It has great range for a submachine gun, high mobility, and easy to control recoil. It's great to rush objectives with, but you don't need to be directly in an enemy's face for it to be effective.

LW3 Tundra League Play class

Black ops cold war LW3 Tundra
  • Muzzle: Stabilizer .308
  • Barrel: 28.2″ Tiger Team
  • Underbarrel: Infiltrator Grip
  • Grip: SASR Jungle Grip
  • Stock: Raider Pad

The Tundra is especially helpful in Search & Destroy, taking down enemies with ease. We went with Simp's loadout due to the mobility of his loadout.

Although flinch was added in the Cold War Season 3 Reloaded update, snipers are still extremely effective in Season 4 of League Play, and you'll play a pivotal role in your team.


Best League Play Secondary Weapons

Launchers and shotguns have been removed as secondary weapons for League Play, so you'll need to make do with pistols and melee weapons.

1911 League Play class

black ops cold war 1911
  • Muzzle: Muzzle Break .45 APC
  • Barrel: 6.53″ Task Force
  • Body: Steady Aim Laser
  • Magazine: 12 Rnd Speed Mag
  • Handle: Speed Tape

Accurate and hard-hitting, the 1911 will be of great help while in a pinch. If your primary weapon runs out of ammo, quickly switch to this classic pistol for a quick kill.

Diamatti League Play class

Black Ops Cold War diamatti
  • Muzzle: Muzzle Break 9
  • Barrel: 7.8″ Extended
  • Body: Steady Aim Laser
  • Magazine: 24 Rnd
  • Handle: Speed Tape

Although you can't use dual wield in League Play, a single Diamatti will still be extremely helpful in League Play.

The three-round burst will rapidly delete enemies' health and you'll also be able to navigate the map quickly while carrying it.


Best League Play Lethals and Tacticals

While stims will likely be your best friend in regular Black Ops Cold War multiplayer, they won't be available in League Play.

Semtex

black ops cold war semtex

For a Lethal grenade, there's no better option than Semtex. They're extremely easy to use and will explode shortly after impact.

Get an enemy weak and lob a Semtex at them, or throw it in front of you to dissuade enemies from pushing while you're one-shot. Plus, if you manage to stick the enemy, it's an instant kill.

Stun Grenades

Stun Grenades make clearing out rooms much easier. If you know an enemy is in there, throw a Stun Grenade in and push while their hands are thrown in the air.

Even if they have the Tactical Mask equipped, getting a tag with the Stun Grenade will provide vital information.

Smoke Grenades

Pro players have a Gentleman's Agreement not to use smokes in the CDL but you can still use them with great effect in League Play. With how powerful Snipers are, you can cover your SnD push with easy by putting a smoke down in front of you.

Plus, while in your own smoke, you get much more information than the enemies outside of it do.


Best League Play perks

The best weapons need the best perks to complete the loadout. League Play offers a wide variety of perks to choose from, so we've picked out the most useful.

Tactical Mask

black ops cold war tactical mask perk

With Stims not being allowed in League Play, Stun and Flast Grenades will be a lot more common. Getting hit by these Tactical Grenades will put a stop to even the best-executed plans, and Tactical Mask will greatly decrease their effects.

Flak Jacket

Flak Jacket reduces the damage taken from grenades. If you're not running Perk Greed, you'll have to make the call between this and Tactical Mask. We recommend Tactical Mask, as you'll be hit much more with stun grenades.

However, if your team aren't using Trophy Systems, you may opt to use this perk instead.

Gearhead

black ops cold war gearhead perk

With how important Field Upgrades are to winning matches of League Play, Gearhead is the perfect perk.

It will allow your Field Upgrades to recharge faster, and you'll also be allowed to hold two. Getting onto a Hardpoint and chucking down two Trophy Systems in quick succession will make the hill extremely hard to push.

Ninja

Pulling of flanks is one of the most important strategies in League Play, and Ninja will make this a while lot easier.

Getting behind the opposing team and pushing out their spawns will be huge in winning respawn matches. And when you're the last man alive in SnD, having quiet footsteps will keep the enemies guessing where you are.


Best League Play Field Upgrade

Trophy System

black ops cold war trophy system

Trophy Systems are extremely powerful in the close-range fights of 4v4. While holding a Hardpoint, this Field Upgrade will hold off an onslaught of explosives coming your way.

As an added bonus, if you lose the hill with your Trophy Still on it, it will destroy enemy Field Upgrades as they put them down, and the damage could even kill them.

Best League Play Wildcards

black ops cold war lawbreaker wildcard

There are only two Wildcards to choose from in League Play, and you should choose depending on your weapons and role in your team. If you're playing the anchor role with an Assault Rifle, you may benefit most from the Gunfighter Wildcard, as it allows you to equip more attachments to your weapon.

However, if you play with a submachine gun, Lawbreaker will likely be the best Wildcard for you. It doesn't let you carry two primary weapons like multiplayer, but you can still equip multiple perks from one category. This way, you can equip both Tactical Mask and Flak Jacket for maximum resistance to enemy equipment.


Take these weapons, perks, and more into League Play with you to dominate the competition and climb the ranks.
