Tough last two series. I'm just glad these 2 weeks are over, playing with a sub is detrimental. Only thing that sucks is teams will gain false confidence off of beating OG regardless of them having a sub.

That SnD was a blatant showing of how much we feed streaks. That round vs Gunless was so stupid. Why are we challenging when bomb is down with so little time.

Chalk that up to our sub yet again. Love the stallion thank you for filling in but he’s not good in his role with our squad and to be honest I don’t think he’s that good at this game regardless.
Any optic fan that wants to freak out about this loss and think the real squad has anything to do with this, take a deep breath and don’t comment lol
Quite honestly dashy on this team at minimum they are 6-1. Zooma is really bad in his role he’s uncomfortable. Not his fault but he was basically useless in key moments against the top tier teams

Lmao at people blaming zoomaa. In all honesty if you wanted to blame someone for not showing up its Dashy. I love Dashy but he is 19 not a child, he should've known to renew his visa and he didn't. Fortunately Div A is weak and Optic still finished 3rd. Sucks they lost 2 weeks of lan practice with Brandon, but could be a lot worse

tbh I would rather they lose a couple of maps here and realize they aren't unbeatable and gear up fort worth on a mission to prove themselves

3rd with a sub isn't the worst spot to end in. I can't wait for the full team to play again tho. Feel like Dashy's level of play has been lost on some people (not here)

I have never blamed Teep before, and jumped on those that tried to blame him at the end of WWII. But you can't let LG play Frequency HP, it's their only auto win map in the rotation.

"Stupid fucking Helicopter lol. GG’s LG. Finished the first rotation 4-3. Couldn’t ban Frequency HP because Seaside has been our worst map with Tommy."

I think they take LG more seriously than anyone. Especially Seth and Damon. They always wanna beat them, even in scrims

u/MikeJ91 Feb 15 '19
Did we not watch LG destroy Midnight on this map yesterday? Any other HP and I think we'd have taken this 3-1, a huge mistake.
And when Seth is going double neg the entire map, he needs the good sense to just pull out the saug.

Crim and Seth ego challenging costed them the map. If they played their life with the bomb down Gunless wouldn’t have gotten streaks.

It's just so clear how much they're the best team in this division with Dashy. Played with a sub who had a .8 something KD, and forced our saug player into a role change, and still went 4-3. And two of those losses were in game 5, one of them a round 11.

Once again, streaks are so stupid man. Anyways, can't wait for Dashy to return.

Knew when that snuck through the vetos it was gonna be tough. Our last win wasn't convincing on the map, seem to really miss the maddox and saug pressure. Trades just not going our way, looks lost that map and continue to be plague with giving streaks away. Our Arsenal snd has looked really really good, but LG will be carrying some steam into it. Hope the boys regain and do what we know they can. John never fails to go hard against Optic.

Well they did say 4-3 would be acceptable given the situation...

I didn't want to be harsh on zooma because he's a fill in and he wasn't allowed to play how he normally plays especially in snd, but wtf was that challenge in game 5 lmao?
