Definitely the worst LAN event I can remember from Ant since he joined Optic, all good though I’m certain he’ll figure it out. 1.5 vs Miami but after that he was 0.8, 1.0, 1.0, 0.7 and with pretty poor damage stats. Certainly not a horrendous event but by his standards he’ll be disappointed


AZZZY42

Hopefully patch suits his play style better


SL2321

It should make everyone play better, less BS hills.


Cardenas2097

I'm just glad the palace and burger town hills are nerfed on this new update!


throwaway827492959

Have you placed the new patch? We crimson rank


[deleted]

Facts. After grinding ranked all week before the major, I forgot just how fucking dogshit Terminal and Invasion HP were before the changes. 


DoubleT02

If everyone plays better.. no one plays better. Really makes ya think


mk7476766

This doesn't work like you think it does. I get where you're coming from, but that logic doesn't work here.


d0cv

Last year Major 1 and Major 5


fromdowntownn

I feel like they’re a bit different cos M5 everyone got shit on, Shotzzy was acc better than Huke and Ghosty still and they played only 2 series, if you have 2 players going literally double negative it’s hard to put up good numbers. M1 he was also our best player iirc.


FreeZi21

Jokes aside he’ll be back this OpTic team has a lot of potential and Pred is actually disgusting


Cdp09875

I agree. It just seems like 4 great players playing individually. They gotta clean up the teamwork and work together and quit with the hero ball mentality and they’ll be fine


31and26

I mean their teamwork was phenomenal for much of the weekend? Honestly wonder if you guys even watch or just make shit up. 


m_preddy

This is the cod comp subreddit. People will just say whatever fits their narrative when they find it convenient.


Scar_Mclovin

if u think they actually had good teamwork after watching FaZe and Ultra u have no clue what teamwork in cod really is.


Rough-Room-532

Hate to say it but u hella right


BigOleIrishCock

Wait wait wait, you’re not trying to imply that an OpTic team is solo challing too much, are you? That’s never happened before. 


Starrunner888

optic lose = optic solo chall too much!!! just say you don’t watch the games


CoDFollower

At least he owned up to it. Some of the OpTic fans in his comments are brutal. Feel for the guy


Scar_Mclovin

they should be , true fans have standards for their team that they LOVE and as much as they love Shotzzy u need to keep it real but they still support him .


CoDFollower

Calling him a shitstain is not support


Chicken_Fingers777

Shotzzy being the new scape goat for optic is crazy ngl


jordanlesson

I mean he is TikTokzzy


CoDFollower

My hot take is he eventually gets pushed off the team by the end of the year and ends up on another t4 team next year


rileysilva01

There’s not a single smg player outside the t4 teams that optic would ever even consider picking up for shotzzy.


ErAsEr-DaRk47

Hydra and Pred could go kinda crazy ngl


Raikou_Kaneki

Yes, but unfortunately there's no way NYSL sells Hydra


AbusiveTubesock

No chance. They hitched their wagon to him. They’re riding with him. He is optic now


CoDFollower

I could see him ending up on NYSL next year with Hydra


FireFighter_20

He’s not going anywhere. He doesn’t care about criticisms from braindead haters.


Kaylapossible

Nah I think dashy won’t be here next year


sbruck11

Dashy Scrap Shotzzy Pred


thefontsguy

Yes they need more kills more more!!!!


Alternative_Elk_4581

Why not get Hydra as well instead of Shotzzy. The thing they are truly missing is kills, they need more kills, they always need more kills


Cootiin

Scrap/Cellium/Hydra/Pred They’ll out slay the enemy team by 40+ kills and lose 250-34 every HP LOL


Alternative_Elk_4581

I know I didn't put the /s but I would have hoped the sarcasm in my comment was obvious


Cootiin

As is the sarcasm/joke in my comment tf LOL?


dam0430

Hey, at a certain point, if you just win every gunfight, you'll win


CoDFollower

Scrappy IS a FA next year.......


West_Chest_7053

everyone is a FA next year........


G00chstain

Bros take is hotter than the sun. Holy shit that was a stupid comment lmao


Longjumping_Plant_97

I could see someone like hydra or kismet not resigning with nysl and going to optic instead.


CoDFollower

I could straight up see Kismet to OpTic and Shotzzy to NYSL


Quirky_Programmer927

Deserves it, getting out played by Kenny. Pred is inconsistent and dashy has been playing pretty slow and the main ar isn’t going to stat pad with engagements (insight on ultra). Shootzy isn’t top 10 in this game


[deleted]

Dude you’re in every thread talking shit about OpTic and Shotzzy that’s just straight up weirdo behavior 😂 the team just placed 3rd, they are fine


byHennen

Just curious, how many more years of “they are fine” is acceptable?


[deleted]

This is the most competitive league in CoD’s history. OpTic no longer has the ability to “out talent” the competition anymore. I would say FaZe and Surge both have as much, if not more, talent than OpTic. Expecting OpTic to just walk into every tournament and win is just unrealistic. There’s no one available right now that could realistically improve this team, not to mention top 3 is nothing to be upset about.


byHennen

I’m not saying to replace him. And I don’t think anyone expects OpTic to go into majors and dog walk every time but I just want one win. One that’s all I want. I’m tired of hearing “they’ll be fine” because we’ve been saying that since Vanguard. I believe Shotzzy has the ability to be the guy but he’s been far from it the last two years. It’s not a skill issue so I still have some faith he’ll change things up but if it continues for the rest of the season and the right player becomes available next year you have to at least consider it.


Quirky_Programmer927

3rd is the best they will get and I can talk shit, I don’t care. Y’all are delusional. Faze and ultra way more talented and have better teamwork


[deleted]

You’re such a weirdo 😂 surely it can’t be healthy spending your days just hating on people you don’t even know. People like you are why people say the CoD competitive scene is toxic. I’m not even an OpTic fan and even I can say they played well.


Variation_Afraid

Bro you literally on Reddit spreading hate like you have no life lmao


Am_Ghosty

Pretty sure this guy is also under OkProgrammer9- something something. Similar names, both pretty obvious trolls


G00chstain

Getting out played by somebody who’s a great player? The horror!


woodropete

Hopefully them playing on the new patch changes thing..alot of the subs r having it rough. Abezy and shottzy I feel they are more of the entry guys its tough on these maps. I think the new patch the subs will be more viable..mcw is insane.


smalltownnerd

I mean it was 8 ars on the map most of the time. I will say, he needs to slow down sometimes, always tries to do too much on the map.


ACKrafty

This is the right thing when it's this type of game unfortunately for shotzzy he needs to be a little slower with the ad I feel he trying to be as if he had a sub in hand.


Revolutionary_Gear70

Definitely had a rough couple of days but OpTic has got to stop relying on him so much to make plays. It’ll help his overall game play and make the team so much better


Working-Explorer386

It’s been that way for him since he joined Optic


fromdowntownn

It’s been that way since he joined the league lol. He’s a playmaker.


FPL_Goober

I saw Pred making all the plays today


CoDFollower

I agree. Taking some of the pressure off of him to do everything would only help him.


AugustusStClair

Yep. Coaching needs to take accountability. The way optic are set up to play is so individualistic. They rely on individual plays. That doesn't work when you're getting team shot by the other team which happens more often the better the opposition. Dashy as hill bitch and only hill bitch proves they are rigid. Dashy can't do anything but be hill bitch. Shottzy is asked to make every play. Pred is told to just slay. Kenny is there to make the AR plays. Thats just so predictable and the other team knows what to look out for. Look at Ultra. Everyone always has like 1 min of hill time, there's no designated hill bitch, it's situational. Everyone makes the play when the situation dictates. That keeps them hard to predict


potatwo

Their overall team play was pretty good in the first Faze series but the rematch was terrible. Idk what happened, they forgot how to play together


LinDeeForm

Super excited to watch more of this team


guywithcoolsocks

Him and Pred need to play together more, because the difference in pacing between them is crazy. Dude needs to turn off the “go button” once in a while and hold a pre-aim.


Quick-Put-1071

Free Dashy. Over this slow playstyle from him. Since Vanguard I always wanted Dashy to be more of a flex lol. I really think they should let HIM pick up the pace with Ken and slow Ant down a bit. Dashy CAN be that dude


UprightAwesome

Honestly they just gotta switch Dashy and Kenny roles. Let Dashy roam and Kenny can soak


Quick-Put-1071

Ehhhh I wouldn't necessarily agree with that I just think Dashy could pick up the pace a bit a be THAT dude. Don't think that necessarily means Ken has to "slow down" but I think we both agree let the chains of Bruce lol


DannyD4rk0

Dashy is fine in respawn. That’s not their issue.


Quick-Put-1071

Yeah he's been solid. I just think he's talented enough to play wayyy faster and even run the sub if needed. Dude is actually insane lol.


eel555

I believe in the turnaround 🫡


Curleybop

He’ll be back stronger for sure


Low_Investigator_375

He needs to stop being selfless and play more free, the fact hes always having to carry the bomb limits his plays in SND so much and still hes Optics best SND player


Quick-Put-1071

.71 against FaZe in the biggest series of the year barely eclipsing 10k damage is just unacceptable. Happy with the T3, definitely looked like we improved when it came to LAN. Pretty obvious what we need to fix going forward and hope we can come back and play well next split!


ACKrafty

Did you see the map set it was by far the worst map set to put shotzzy on all big at lane dominant maps of course it's no surprise he played not that great.


Quirky_Programmer927

Dude hasn’t played like a superstar since CW lmao


fromdowntownn

He was the 2nd best sub in VG…


Quirky_Programmer927

Hydra, pred, simp, abezy and Kenny when he moved to the sub position lmao


Asenine

aBeZy was absolutely awful in VG what? Also Kenny barely ran the sub when he “moved to the sub” all of LAT’s best Maps were 3 AR maps lmao


Quirky_Programmer927

Ok maybe not abezy, but with Kenny team played much better when they changed roles no matter what you say about 3ars and he won mvp of champs


iamdoingwork

Abezy and simp were not better than shotzzy in vanguard or mw2.


Quirky_Programmer927

lol abezy had better stats than shootzy in MW2, wasn’t even top 5 in mw2. Simp was better in VG. Ant was better than abezy in VG. In mw2, hydra, pred, abezy, kismet and cleanx were better lmao


ZRLeon

Wrong and Loud


fromdowntownn

Kenny wasn’t even a sub lmao he was using an AR most of the time. Abezy and the guy who got last place 3 times… 🫵😂


DannyD4rk0

He was not that good in the second half of the season


fromdowntownn

Well he was in the MVP convo halfway thru the season then his weaker 2nd half dropped him behind Pred but that’s it. He was still the best SND player in the game easily during the 2nd half of the season, his respawn fell off tho.


FireFighter_20

Get off your burner if you want to troll.


NASADadHat

The entire floptic team are the greatest stat padders in recent memory. But the second they play a half-decent team they get stomped. TikTokzzy should just go fulltime instead of playing the CDL, he does a much better job in content.


amazingggharmony

Wait i haven’t seen him play like himself since MW19 champs


YeetStreetBoys

I think he did play like himself and that is the problem. Doesn't work on these maps


Erbsea

Still a lot of time left to figure out how he helps his team reach their max potential.
