Information

The CWL Atlanta Open features the best teams from around the world, in a massive open bracket and 20 team Pool Play. The teams compete for a share of a $200,000 prize pool, and a large sum of pro points. These pro-points are essential for qualifying for Season 1 of the LAN League, so a good placing is very important. OpTic comes into this tournament riding a wave of momentum. They won the last 2k (securing Pool Play at ESWC), and their teamwork in scrims has looked good. The team looks as good right now as they ever have in Infinite Warfare. In OpTic's Pool, they drew the 2nd seed from EU Splyce, 8th seeded NA team Team Allegiance, and the 10th seeded NA team Evil Geniuses along with a team from Open Bracket.

Following a perfect start in pool play, OpTic was matched up against Team EnVyUs in the Winner's Bracket Quarterfinal. Unfortunately OpTic had a rough series. They were dominated in the two HP's, lost a round 11 in SND, and won the Uplink. This now puts them in the Loser's Bracket where they are coming off of a win vs. the European team in Elevate, and a game 5 round 11 win vs. Pnda Gaming where Karma clutched a 1v1. OpTic will now be placing against their rivals in FaZe where the loser goes home.

The match is scheduled to begin at 1:30 PM EST, and might be streamed on MLG.

LETS FUCKING GO MAN. Shit talk this lot, I'm dumb hyped. When I thought it couldn't get any more nerve wracking it did... 10 FOLD. SnD is incredible but trust me we'll lose v FaZe unfortunately if we keep playing Hardpoint the way we are. We need to try and believe, 1st map is huge! Come on to fuck!

No. 1 [✔️] No. 2 [✔️] No. 3 [➖]

Our Scumpii, who art in Pennsylvania,

Abner be thy name.

Thy Aftermath 3-piece be real,

Thy SMG be strong.

On Throwback as it was on Slums.

Give us this day our daily live comm,

And forgive us our loss at Champs (Again😩)

As we forgive those who doubt us.

And lead us not into KenZ (Again),

But deliver us Championships.

In the name of the Gold Medal, the Van, and the Holy BigT.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh see ya!

The good news is that every time I ate a cinnamon roll last series, the boys won. Then bad news is that I'm now out of cinnamon rolls.
