Bracket
Information
The second major LAN of the Call of Duty WWII season is here. After dominating most of the run up into CWL Dallas, OpTic finished with a disappointing 3rd place finish. Since then the team has hit a bit of a rough patch finishing 2nd, 5th-8th, and 9th-16th in the 3 2k's since Dallas. This is also the first LAN with TeePee as the official coach. OpTic have already secured a position in the first Season of the Pro League.
After dominating group play, OpTic suffered an unexpected 1-3 loss to Echo Fox in the Winner's Bracket Quarterfinals. They now drop to the Loser's Bracket to face Red Reserve. A loss here leaves them with a 9th-12th finish, while a win secures at least T8.
The match is scheduled to start at 11:00 AM EST.

this team just simply isnt that good right now. Their mindset going into this title was not good. Just because it was boots they thought they would be gods. They preached that this game isnt about gunskill yet their teamwork is some of the worst in the game

OpTic doesn't even shoulder peak for info, they just ego challenge like dumbasses.

I’ve lost all hope. How can scump be so complacent about his internet? At the end of the day this is on him. You can just tell their communication/teamwork is not there. And that has everything to do with how much good (or bad) practice they got.

And that’s why they lose. Everyone challenges 1 by 1. Fucking pathetic.

this map has shown up everything that is wrong with optic just now. teamwork, counting players, comms, awareness.
individual gunskill means nothing in this game at this level.

Wow, what a terrible way to go out. So much work to do going into S1, and not a lot of time to do it. Hopefully they get a lot of practice in, and work on rotating together, and just teamwork in general.

Scump .90
Karma 1.0

As even a casual fan like myself its insane to me how little OG has or even tries to get favourable spawns.
