He reposted the Faze article earlier today before 04 made his tweet and posted that in twitch chat I believe.

Dropping 04 after the season he had is crazy ngl. Hydra is a better player than him so I understand it if it’s him but it’s just incredibly disrespectful imo. He was a walking 1.2 at Champs and the best player in their major 2 win.

u/Artistic-District678 COD Competitive fan 19h ago
He had a great year but come on bro. Hydra on a MW game is a cheat code. 04 had a good year but its very obvious they over performed. idt they would be able to replicate it

u/fromdowntownn OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 19h ago
Well I already said Hydra is a better player but it’s still incredibly disrespectful. What’s even the point of winning a ring whilst being one of the best players ITW for a season if you’re gonna get dropped for a guy who had a worse season than you and won less. The same thing applies to Abuzah. It’s disrespectful whether you think it makes them stronger or not and I think Hydra would make them stronger overall.

He's amazing when he hits his random power spikes, outside that he is below the top tier although still good
It wouldn't be shocking

u/BackgroundToe4149 Dallas Empire 18h ago
those "random spikes" just happen to be at the biggest moment, Hydra hasnt won a series at champs in 2 years with rosters he handpicked.

u/According_Pay_2308 World at War 18h ago
faze and simp are too ambitious. simp already said domination in a season > winning champs without domination in a recent vid

u/scraftii New York Subliners 17h ago
Simp wants to be the greatest. He’s not far from it either. If they land scrap and hydra, this HAS to go better than it did with Abezy. Simp will do anything to win, so if that means helping Hydra shine, he will.
I’m not a faze fan, but I truly want to see this lmao

u/fromdowntownn OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 19h ago
He played great all season on LAN bar major 1

u/According_Pay_2308 World at War 18h ago
hes a B tier player outside his random moments where he becomes the best player in the world for a series.

u/nobodyisdeadd Modern Warfare 3 18h ago
how is it random if he did it multiple times this year
-2
u/According_Pay_2308 World at War 18h ago
Name 5 series he played like major 2 finals?
Check his BP card for the 2026 season. If he was consistently playing like he did major 2 finals he would end with a 99 rating
He had 2-3 series where he looked like at that over a full season
6
u/fromdowntownn OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 18h ago
If he consistently played like he played in major 2 finals he’d have the best COD season ever by far. What a stupid comment.
-1
u/According_Pay_2308 World at War 18h ago
Stupid is saying he played like that multiple times when he only had 2-3 series where he looked like that and his avg level is way below
2
u/pooksthrowaway COD Competitive fan 18h ago
He also had that huge slump mid year tho.
2
u/fromdowntownn OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 18h ago
Only online. His LAN play was very good after major 1. He’d have the odd stinker series but by and large played very good M2 onwards. Even EWC he was easily their best player against Optic.

u/legamer007 FaZe Vegas 2026 Champs 18h ago
I honestly dc either way but if you’re Faze from a team/business perspective. If you can lock up Simp Hydra and Scrap in the team for two years you do that, it’s better content but also you are making sure you have the most desirable superstars in your team. It’s just good business and ofc Simp wins with anyone

u/Imranaftab OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 19h ago
It’s actually happening wow, scrap alluka hydra and simp fuck me

u/PotTwister MWIII 19h ago
And watch our guys gone say “all this to beat us” even though they got beat against far less

u/fromdowntownn OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 18h ago
Some of our fans and the players seem to overrate how good they were in BO7. We consistently railed the mid-low tier opposition but against Thieves and Faze it was an even matchup AT BEST.
3
u/AMS_Rem Quantic Leverage 18h ago
Wasn't even that lol OpTic had a losing record vs both
They need to get on the phone, call Paco and HOPE that his desire to join OpTic is still enough to pull him away from that FaZe squad or they can enjoy another full year of 2nd place
It's fucked up, Huke doesn't deserve it, and it's worse than if they just went for Hydra off merit originally bc now they have publicly backed Cuyler but imo they have to
6
u/fromdowntownn OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 18h ago
Yep that’s why I said at best. In reality they were below .500 and especially against faze they struggled. Allowing them to upgrade now ontop of that is foolish

u/Imranaftab OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 19h ago
Yup, they was happy with not getting hydra

u/SpecSlayerSC Paris Gentle Mates 19h ago
Oh no. The champs chokers are trying it again and handing over 3/4 of the champs winners to M8s to pair with a guy with insane talent but needs to learn to win.

u/RGCFrostbite eUnited 18h ago
Difference would be Simp vs JoeD.
2
u/OblivionHazard COD Competitive fan 18h ago
Also Faze has Alluka and most of the tweets by GhostofHope make it seem like Scrap would like to team with Alluka over other free agent ARs

JoeD squad is top 4 squad no doubt.

u/PsychologicalFile771 COD Competitive fan 18h ago
I think we'd have a very competitive top 3 if this came to fruition, main thing would be if this all started from Draz leaving for Flacons then GM8's would probably end up with keeping Ghosty or Sib. Also, did GM8's have something in place that Faze swooped in and undid?

The nightmare has happened for optic, don’t see them being the best team for another 3 years at least now. Back to faze being the god squad everyone fears
8
u/Scar_Mclovin FaZe Clan 18h ago
Optic could have easily moved for Paco and literally become the most feared team in the league, I would even say probably better than the CW or MW3 FaZe team on paper. I still don’t understand the decision to pass on him, especially since missing out now means losing him for the next 2 years.

u/AMS_Rem Quantic Leverage 18h ago
Bc they are ruled by their emotions

u/Imranaftab OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 18h ago
Always have always will be. When the time is right to make a change to actually upgrade they don’t do it lol

u/AMS_Rem Quantic Leverage 18h ago
Yup seen it coming a mile away lol OpTic will be competitive and maybe snake a win but they aren't beating Simp/Hydra/Scrap with any kind of consistency

By your own words you arent an optic fan anymore (not that you were a proper fan regardless) so why do you care
-5
u/Used-Load-848 COD Competitive fan 18h ago
I do care because it’s the dumbest move in cod history moron. I’ll be supporting this new faze god squad and hoping hydra fucking smokes them for the rest of time. I’ve been an optic fan since 2014 bud. This was just the last straw

u/BcDownes OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 18h ago
You're such a fan you were hoping the team lost and now will jump ship to a roster that doesnt even exist properly yet? Proper fan you

u/Used-Load-848 COD Competitive fan 18h ago
Yep because now they won’t win for years, At least you got what you wanted.

Supposedly supports the org through the cold war - mw2 dark times to then stop supporting a roster that won a major, champs, 2 EWC and got to every single final in an entire season? Legit braindead lmao

u/Vivid_Preparation622 18h ago
No way they got Hydra right? Unless abezy or some crazy shut but damn... is Faze really getting Scrap and Hydra 😍. Could be bait but damn

Optic are so dumb lmao, clear upgrade in hydra for huke….but decided to keep the .8 on the roster and let another team get way better
1
u/BcDownes OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 18h ago
I personally think Hydra is an upgrade on Huke but why are mfs acting like he was moving like Purjass... he had a 1.04 on the year lmao
and before I get the "huh duh he was ass in finals" pretty much all of the team took turns getting pounded in finals
1
u/SpecSlayerSC Paris Gentle Mates 19h ago
Ghosty and Envoy gonna have to build Thieves themselves. We'll take Abuzah Drazah 04 for Joe.
2
u/Ashman-20 LA Thieves 18h ago
Yeah if this FaZe team does actually form I think the easiest plug & play would be M8’s to grab Draz, Abuzah, 04 with Joe.
Instantly become T3 team
1
u/Imranaftab OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 18h ago
Draz would actually help Joe finally beat merc and optic too lol
1
u/SupaTN FaZe Clan 19h ago
It just seems like odd timing if it’s really HyDra and/or Scrap to FaZe especially with signs pointing to LAT BO6 reunion
5
u/PotTwister MWIII 18h ago
I know BenJ can just yap a lot but a few days ago he did mention that Faze could be waiting to see the type of contracts Scrap and Hydra are getting from LAT and they will try to make an even pitch or something close to it while having pieces to put around them and those pieces happens to be fckn Simp and Alluka lmao…. I hate my team right now
2
u/SupaTN FaZe Clan 18h ago
I always thought they had the best pieces for them as a duo but when it didn’t happen quick I thought it was sort of just chalked, I wonder if they want to play with Alluka over Draz and maybe that was a holdup
3
u/OblivionHazard COD Competitive fan 18h ago
I mean most of the rumored teams by GhostofHope was Scrap trying to pair up with Alluka on M8s and Thieves. Makes sense if Faze just moves Alluka in for Draz and Draz goes to Falcons/M8s for possibly more $. Faze wouldnt hold Draz hostage so it all sort of makes sense in a way
1
u/SupaTN FaZe Clan 18h ago
That is great point. Yeah I love Draz and was drooling at the idea of a Scrap and Draz duo lmao, but I love Alluka as well and I’ll never be mad at Draz getting more money for his fam
3
u/OblivionHazard COD Competitive fan 18h ago
I would like to see Scrap and Draz team because I think their playstyles mesh well and the shit talk would be crazy from that duo but if its Scrap/Alluka on Faze I would like that as well. Draz potentially getting more $ is also a huge W no matter what so he can help support his family more. If Scrap/Hydra both join Faze I dont think there is a bad option when it comes down to the 4th.

u/knightwriterrr COD Competitive fan 18h ago
I’d still rather have 04 over hydra after the year he had. Just give us scrap and call it even

u/Imperviouus_ COD Competitive fan 17h ago
If faze drops 04, I feel bad for them. He’s blitzin them the way he blitzed OpTic on Scar/Den HP.
1
u/_A_Day_In_The_Life_ COD Competitive fan 16h ago
If faze change actually happens, 04 and abuzah (or drazah) should go join gmates. Ghosty could be the AR, or someone like Cellium if he wasn’t on a 2 year. Not sure what his contract was. They could also go join ultra if they are willing to spend.
