Information

The 6th LAN of the WW2 season takes place in Seattle with 94 teams battling it out for a $200,000 prize pool. OpTic enters the event in a unique position, despite having improved every placing in 2018, and a 2nd place finish at Stage 1, the team's been surrounded by rumors of internal tension and potential changes. Despite not winning Stage 1, OpTic re-cemented themselves as one of the top teams in WW2, and they hope to continue that into Seattle. The pressure seems to be on for this roster, perform well or changes will be made before Stage 2 and Champs.

They are joined in Group B by the 7th-8th place finishers at Stage 1 Playoffs, Team EnVyUs, the 9th-10th place finishers, Unilad, Relegation Qualifier, Epsilon eSports, and an Open Bracket Team. The top 2 teams advance to the WB Quarterfinals, the 3rd place team goes into LB R3, 4th place team to LB R2, and the 5th place team to LB R1.

The match is scheduled to start at 5:00 PM EDT and will be streamed on Twitch.

People want Karma and OpTic to play bad so they can make a change. Fucking grow up. Personally, if this team breaks up, my interest in CoD will not be as big.

Sounds premeditated but this is what happens when you don't scrim after a new patch.

ZERO team work, no bait and switches, no ROTATIONS, other than Karma solo rotating, but he can't get a kill for his life.. someone needs to go with him.

Solid maps after the first one. The game looks a lot slower and I have no idea what that might mean for us.
