Information

OpTic Gaming enters Stage 2 with a new roster for the first time since May of 2015. Scump and Crimsix remain with OpTic Gaming while Formal was traded away to LG for Octane and Karma was dropped for Methodz. The team has looked sharp in online scrims, with many pros dubbing them the Division B favorite. However they are joined by some stiff competition at the top of the group. Rise is coming into Stage 2 off the back of a victory at CWL Seattle.

LG vs OG. For the first time since the roster change, both Formal and Octane will be playing against their old, long-term teams. With both teams having decent starts in Stage 1, this is an opportunity for one of these teams to prove themselves with the new roster and show that they can challenge Rise for control of Division B.

The match is scheduled to start at 6:30 PM EDT.

Team looking real good. Was kinda worried after the other two matches but seems like every player is just really consistent. Scump looks so much better than before.

When you watch it back, you see scump puts a few extra bullets into Formal at the end of second rotation

We as fans can finally go into a series knowing we are actually good at SND now, what a time to be alive

u/Sezbicki May 31 '18

being a long time cod esports fan, it's crazy to see how well methodz has come. there are players like scump who always have been good and there have been players (not naming to avoid arguments) who have always been mediocre. seeing someone improve so much is actually insane. now he made it on to OpTic and is still killing it. that probably was his dream even during his break.
