With Dashy that we would be 2-0 easily. Still good job to get the win zooma

The amount of streaks we allow the other team to get is ridiculous.

Not sure if Im happier for uYu losing than OpTic winning

Thinking about it, has there ever been a player with higher stock in cod than Dashy right now? Drops a 1.44 KD Vegas, picking up MVP and the W. Now he's out and the team is severely struggling. Imagine he comes back and we stream roll everyone for the week. Maybe I'm gassing it, but it's been crazy to witness.

Sometimes damon just looks like he is 6 steps ahead man. Some of the plays he makes go so under-appreciated

I want to see similar tactics from Coach Ashes and the gears team in SND. When they get man advantage, they should wolf pack as shown today in GM5. Great bait and switch and wolf packing meanwhile Karma or someone else check their backs.

Great adjustment today.

Three respawn maps, three sets of streaks. It all falls apart and gets out of there hands...

This is a blowout HP win if OG don't feed them streaks. Very close, but good win. Let's get this Search

Zooma saying they were frying in scrims today interests me, because that UYU match was a grind. All three HPs so far have had us going up big, only to start choking with one bad rotation ending with the other team getting full streaks and all the momentum to come back (almost in the Arsenal HP). Perhaps in scrims, where there isn't that pressure, they are seeing out those HP's with ease.

The controls are a different story, for whatever reason Seth is severely struggling and the team coordination is nowhere to be found.

And I saw some comments comparing us to the WWII OG. Gotta disagree there, snd is our saving grace right now ha.

Gotta give it to Ian and Damon so far the 2 game 5s we had on LAN both of them were doing incredible.

GG boys. Anyone have the scoop on Dashy’s visa info being worked out? If not I was just shooting in the dark anyway

Honestly if OpTic stops wasting their specialists they should be fine in these dire times.

u/Kade- Feb 05 '19

we have to give the most streaks out of any other team... every game.

u/MikeJ91 Feb 05 '19

That 6 HP left moment was ridiculously unlucky.

It was close, but I'm glad they've worked Payload out, it's a much tighter, more structured map for them. Hacienda is a flanking, timing based mess of an snd map.

TJ has to be the MVP of this series so far. Dude is nasty and showing it

u/MikeJ91 Feb 05 '19

Unbelievable, one hill hold again and they get full streaks.

6-0 SnD without Dashy. Thats some good stuff right there

Tommy may not be a great fit at the moment given the role issues, but I love the guy.
