The Los Angeles Thieves swept two opponents to advance into the third round of the elimination bracket Friday at the Call of Duty League Major V in Toronto.

The Thieves, seeded ninth and starting the tournament in the lower bracket, handed OpTic Texas an early exit with a 3-0 win in Round 1, thenbeat the London Royal Ravens 3-0 as well.

The Royal Ravens had moved forward by beating the Boston Breach 3-1 earlier in the day. Rounding out the start of the elimination bracket, the Vegas Legion swept the Seattle Surge 3-0 and the New York Subliners did the same to the Los Angeles Guerrillas.

Against Texas, the Thieves won 250-109 on Mercado Las Almas Hardpoint, 6-2 on Breenbergh Hotel Search and Destroy and 3-1 on Breenbergh Hotel Control. Zack "Drazah" Jordan recorded a match-high 61 kills for Los Angeles.

Texas was the top seed and the only team to go 5-0 in qualifying, but it was unceremoniously swept out of the tournament with 3-0 losses Thursday and Friday.

The Royal Ravens started their day by beating the Breach, opening with a 250-233 win on Al Bagra Fortress Hardpoint and a 6-3 win on Al Bagra Fortress Search and Destroy. Boston countered with a 3-1 win on Breenbergh Hotel Control, but London clinched the victory with a 250-155 result on Embassy Hardpoint. Byron "Nastie" Plumridge of England had 90 kills and a plus-1.43 K/D ratio for the Ravens.

It was a different story when London met Los Angeles. The Thieves won 250-232 on Al Bagra Fortress Hardpoint, 6-5 on El Asilo Search and Destroy and 3-0 on Breenbergh Hotel Control. Drazah led all players in kills again, with 59 on a plus-1.20 K/D ratio.

The Legion beat the Surge 250-175 on Zarqwa Hydroelectric Hardpoint, 6-5 on Mercado Las Almas Search and Destroy and 3-1 on Breenbergh Hotel Control. Vegas' Thomas "TJHaLy" Haly led all players with 70 kills.
