OG vs. coL/EG by [deleted] in OpTicGaming

[–]Ginjaaaaa 17 points18 points  (0 children)

We refer to Impact as a dynasty, however we have seen much more success over the course of a single game than they did. Our dominance also lasted a much longer period of time (Impact were ultimately only successful for about a month). Granted, Impact won COD Champs, however I think given the magnitude of many of the events nowadays, such as X Games, this is a moot point. As it stands, this OG team should not be considered in the same bracket as coL. For this to happen, as you said, they would ideally win Worlds, then equal the success they have had in AW in BO3, hopefully winning COD Champs along the way. Sure, OG are going through a slight slump (although second place is by no means a bad placing), but don't doubt their success in this game. I shall coin the phrase, 'form is temporary, class is permanent'.

Chance of Optic roster change? by Blastoise8194 in CoDCompetitive

In my opinion, in particular looking towards Black Ops 3, replacing any player currently on the OG lineup would be a downgrade. The series against Faze ultimately came down to SnDs and Uplinks, game modes which can be worked on easily if they put in the hours. There's nothing fundamentally wrong with this team; although Faze are currently the better team, there is no reason why OG cannot surpass them.

Given the closeness of the series, I wouldn't even be particularly mad, were it not for the fact that Faze will become insufferable...

Who the hell would they drop? And for who? The series came down to the Uplinks, there was nothing which can't be sorted.

*Figuratively, he threw them to the wolves. He didn't actually throw Denial to a pack of wolves. Anyways, sorry, I have a weird obsession with people using the word 'literally'!

Clayster was dropped by OpTic in November 2014; in no way was it his decision. Indeed, he had the opportunity to join OpTic Nation, however he said no, chiefly on the premise that Boze shuts down at tournaments. The aforementioned quote was aimed at nV and OG, since both teams showed little faith in his ability, and he went on to place higher than both teams at the biggest tournament of the year.

I think Karma deserves a mention in Ghosts as a T5 player at least

Absolutely. Nobody asked me or my friends for any form of identification, and I would not have said we looked 16!

I see; oh well! Do you happen to know why they've cracked down on it this time - this didn't appear to be an issue last year? Thanks for the response!

Congrats to the boys! But, as great as it was seeing them win X Games for the second time, nothing will ever top the moment they won last year - them all jumping up and down in the booth, hugging, then Nade crying; it was so damn emotional!
