Are you and your friend arguing about who is the better player? There is an easy way to settle that debate and that is through playing a 1v1 in COD Mobile.

Activision has given players the option to create private lobbies in COD Mobile which not only allows you to play 1v1s in any map but also to scrim against other players. If you are wondering how to do that, we've got you covered.

  1. Launch COD Mobile.
  2. Click on the Multiplayer button.
  3. In the multiplayer menu, click on the three lines (≡) on the top right.

  6. Invite players to the match by tapping the plus sign (+) next to their name.

In 1v1 matches, you can select custom maps and modes, including all of the settings inside the custom room.

The statistics from a custom game will not contribute to your overall ranking. So, you can use it to practice against friends or play 1v1 matches. You can invite up to 10 players in a custom room.

1v1 matches can be used to organize tournaments in COD Mobile. You can also add spectator slots to stream the game. You can also use the private room feature to practice 1v1 against other players, test out team synergies, and even scrim against other squads.
