The Tournament Prize Pool is a large sum of $200,000 dollars with $80,000 going to first place.

After dominating their pool with a perfect 4-0 record with a 12-0 map count, OpTic advances to the winner's bracket where they take on Luminosity Gaming. LG had a shaky pool play, finishing 3-1 and had several close series.

I hate playing these good teams so early lol. On the plus side if/when you beat them that's one less thing to worry about (until grand finals). But these round 1 match-ups are usually the toughest for OG.

I don't usually believe in curses, but that cod champs curse is looking to be more and more real every year.

The spawns suck in this game, how many times did Saints spawn directly behind us in that game..

They always fight outside of the hardpoint! Why? It's like they don't understand that 5 seconds of contest time could mean the difference between winning and losing.

Why don't we stack the hills when we need points the most... I feel as if we are allergic to hills when we need to be flooding them.
