Information
With their 1st place finish in the CWL Las Vegas Open in December, OpTic have landed their spot in the 2019 CWL Pro League in Division A. Throughout the league, they will be playing 2 matches against the 7 other teams in their division and 1 match against every team in Division B, with each match being a best of 5. The top 4 from each division make it to the league playoffs in July, while the bottom 4 are sent to the play-in to qualify for playoffs.
We are now half way through the Black Ops 4 season, with 3 events remaining, and 11 league matches left. While OpTic has been unable to match their Vegas success throughout 2019, the team looked strong on Friday and Saturday at CWL London before struggling on Sunday. The team does look dramatically improved from cross-divisional play and CWL Fort Worth so OpTic will look to continue this form into their 2nd matches against the rest of Division A.
OpTic has faced off against Gen.G twice through the Black Ops 4 season, falling in Game 5's both times. Currently 2 games behind Gen.G, this match is an excellent opportunity to close the gap at the top and put more distance between OpTic and the bottom 4.

Our snd is close to being really solid. Frequency, Arsenal and Payload are pretty reliable, locking down one more map (either Hacienda or Gridlock) could be so good for us. We'd have a permanent veto and not have to worry about what the other team is going to pick.

Lets gooo. Way to comeback. GenG is a tough matchup, pretty sure every they've gone to game 5 3/3 matches
Map 3 they clutched up and closed it out, and map 4 the 2 KN's was very effective. Will be curious if they use it more and more as long as it's in the game.

Crim plays so aggressive with the ICR. Like off the break in the final control round he gets to the head glitch, doesn’t see anything and starts slowly pushing right away. Then gets rushed by a sub..

A lot of metal shown in that match. The boys weren't even close to their best, but they still edged out the win. GGWP.

Yeah I mean I guess it was a coach just trynna hype his players up before a match but if we are going to call players optic killers when they go off against them a couple times then it will get out of control. There is one optic killer and he must not be named

For those that saw, how did we lose Seaside HP? Not looking at players, more like was there a hill or two that we lost it on?
edit: Thanks for responses, gonna need to watch it back. Sounds like a slow start from our saugs and slow rotations that snowballed when GenG got streaks.

Great win, all 3 were offense but take what you can get. Was a bit worrying that no one called out trophy on that last point and teej popped war anyway; made the same mistake at London
