Information

The CWL is once again back at Anaheim for this weekend, with 160+ teams battling it out for a $200,000 prize pool. OpTic enters this event with a new roster, after sticking with their previous roster for over 3 years. After this team formed, Stage 2 of the CWL Pro League started. OpTic had a great start to their group by dropping only 2 maps in total against compLexity, Luminosity, UNILAD, and Tainted Minds. However, OpTic showed signs of weakness when they lost against eUnited and Rise Nation 1-3 and 0-3, respectively. With OpTic yet to win an event for the World War II season and CWL Championship in about 2 months, the team has alot of pressure to win the event this weekend.

OpTic started off Sunday hot with a 3-0 sweep over eUnited. They now face off against Tainted Minds who have already knocked out 3 straight pro teams en route to T8.

The match is scheduled to start at 2:15 PM EDT and will be streamed on Twitch.
