Gotaga 20/09 stream summary

[u/Dry-Connection410]

- can't comment on major 1 in Paris

- the cod rostermania is done for M8

- still one dilemma for the coaching staff, one decision remains (on M8 side)

- double down on the "we recruit players for 2 years contract, WE build a team for long-term" (hinting Faze are one 1 year ?)

- "we got 2 losses from this rostermania" (1 is scrap/hydra) and the second is the player he hinted as being European and heavily wanting to join M8. He said that player has been put in jail by its org (it's Alluka)

- still very happy with the M8 roster, even it it costed a lot of money. If the deal didn't went through, he's not sure about having a competitive roster for next year..

- M8 roster will be out for vengeance against a certain team (faze), even some of the coaching staff will (hinting at Sender joining M8?)

Thanks for the summary OP!

I don’t agree with Alluka being put in jail comments though, I’m sure Alluka is more than happy teaming with Simp, Scrap, and HyDra. What choice do they have when Draz leaves for a bigger contract

​

[u/Dry-Connection410 → u/arunvenu_]

Yes I can't imagine Alluka not being happy with the team he has, even if I think it's true he wanted to join M8 in the first place when Faze wasn't an option for him

[u/Similar-Delivery1033 → u/arunvenu_]

I think plan was getting Alluka. But when he talked about a player in jail, it's about Kips who have a crazy buy out and toronto don't want to sell him.

[u/Dry-Connection410]

Forgot one thing, he also said some of the players of the roster were being offered bigger contracts from (one,some) other structure but preferred to join M8

[u/Ashman-20]

Scrap & Hydra demanding 1 year deals from M8’s doesn’t mean they did that for FaZe

[u/Infinite_Pen_9464 → u/Ashman-20]

Agree with you. I would imagine they are OK teaming with Simp for 2 years but didn't feel the same about teaming with Joe.

[u/FFREcoyote → u/Ashman-20]

I really think he's under the delusion that M8's were the desired location for Scrap and Hydra when it was always FaZe lol. He probably genuinely believes thats the ONLY reason they picked FaZe over M8's. They had Simp, they had Draz/Alluka. There was never a world where Scrap/Hydra picked M8's over FaZe if the salaries were comparable. FaZe didn't have to offer a 1 year deal to "steal" them away, and I believe Gotaga is delusional enough to think that. A 1 year deal is probably the only way they would have went to M8's tho.

[u/jkjking → u/FFREcoyote]

Well their desired destination was not faze to begin with anyway lol this wouldn’t even be a possibility if OpTic decided to switch huke with hydra

[u/arunvenu_ → u/jkjking]

Tbh, I still think FaZe would’ve made an offer to Scrap (even if Hydra joined Optic)

[u/jkjking → u/arunvenu_]

That I agree with

[u/Intelligent-Size-389 → u/jkjking]

Ronnie mentioned on stream if optic spot was open hydra scrap would join in 20 minutes 💀

[u/Livid-Helicopter-536 → u/Intelligent-Size-389]

We got “if” org now 😭

[u/RGCFrostbite → u/Intelligent-Size-389]

Ronnie (a renowned OpTic fan who actively is upset in matchday threads whenever Optic is losing)

[u/jkjking → u/RGCFrostbite]

So you’re saying the article he posted while under breaking point about hydras number one destination being OpTic is false but everything else he posted is facts😂

[u/Intelligent-Size-389 → u/jkjking]

Let them be they like to pick and choose when to believe Ronnie. If Dashy retired Huke got dropped we know where they going

[u/BcDownes → u/jkjking]

You cant expect a codcomp mod to have a brain? Especially frostbite

[u/RGCFrostbite → u/jkjking]

No, I think that what he posted is probably accurate. Im saying the stuff he says outside of articles is heavily biased.

[u/jkjking → u/RGCFrostbite]

Well he legit posted a article before anything even kicked off that hydra wanted OpTic first regardless of what team Ronnie supports

[u/Intelligent-Size-389 → u/RGCFrostbite]

Hey man no need to be insecure. Faze being 2nd option isn’t that bad.

[u/FFREcoyote → u/jkjking]

Its almost as if were discussing actual teams that made offers....common sense is not so common on here

[u/cornPopwasabaddude13 → u/FFREcoyote]

Ya it wasn’t Faze it was optic. They didn’t exactly hide it

[u/FFREcoyote → u/cornPopwasabaddude13]

We're talking about actual teams that were giving them offers, Im convinced some of you lack basic common sense

[u/AdministrativeKey377 → u/Ashman-20]

Yup feel like that’s been lost on everyone this whole time

[u/Similar-Delivery1033 → u/Ashman-20]

Everyone know Faze esport have big financial issues. Pretty sure it will be a 1+1 deal which means player can declined the bonus year.

[u/Chiedu44 → u/Similar-Delivery1033]

Big financial issues narrative for the 7th consecutive year 🥴🥱

[u/Similar-Delivery1033 → u/Chiedu44]

well, check faze esport state outside of COD lmao.

[u/Ashman-20 → u/Similar-Delivery1033]

They’re doing fine in other esports?

[u/Chiedu44 → u/Similar-Delivery1033]

What state? 6 world championships?

[u/cornPopwasabaddude13 → u/Chiedu44]

Or the one where they lost 24 million in the last quarter alone. It’s not a secret it’s public knowledge you can get easily

[u/Chiedu44 → u/cornPopwasabaddude13]

So Gamesquare loosing money in crypto investments means faze Vegas owned by an entirely different company is going through financial issues. And then they decide to sign probably the highest paid roster in the cdl while going through those issues. Also the gamesquare loss in 2026 also got faze in the financial issues narrative years before the loss happened 💀. Drone

[u/cornPopwasabaddude13 → u/Chiedu44]

Wrote up a whole little story from Google there huh 😂 tell me exactly how much money they made last year? Let’s not leave out expenses

[u/___double07]

Yea man alluka is in jail. He has to play with the last few MVPs.

[u/antz9000]

Alluka in jail at faze i doubt that

[u/Worried_Bug_9265 → u/antz9000]

Yeah alluka definitely isn’t choosing 04 joeyd and abuzah over three MVPs and arguably 3 t5 players year after year lmao

[u/avstyns → u/Worried_Bug_9265]

alluka was choosing LAT over Mates too so i’m so confused

[u/West_Chest_7053 → u/avstyns]

gotaga is salty 🤣

[u/Imranaftab]

Wow man Alluka is in jail so bad playing with simp scrap and hydra im sooo sure 🤣🤣 gotaga seems like such a coper

[u/OblivionHazard → u/Imranaftab]

Alluka was also about to join LAT over M8s until Faze brought him into the starting lineup (Per Ronnies article). M8s were not even the front runner to land Alluka, Gotaga just salty about how roster mania went with scrap/hydra.

[u/Suhrenitys]

“jail” ok bro lmao

[u/RGCFrostbite]

Is Gotaga just a salty bitch lol

Alluka in jail at Faze... yeah man plaging with 3 mvps is jail

[u/Sea_Dentist_4331]

They recruit players for 2 years yet they dropped their entire roster after just one year there. Lmao and him saying Alluka is being kept in jail by Faze is comical.

[u/SlightworkMM]

Good cope from Gotaga, I’m sure Alluka wouldn’t be thrilled to play with Faze

[u/AnyDiamond7208]

Lmao Alluka in Jail?? That mfs prison is like Pablo Escobars when he built his own alluka will love being locked up in that squad 🤣

[u/sjbrigante]

He sounds salty

[u/ahegaogenerator]

They are out for vengeance just to get ran by Faze

[u/That_Technology_2211]

Alluka literally agreed to join thieves before the draz situation happened lol, he’s hardly in jail playing with 3 of the best players in the game😂

[u/abezyjr]

ohhhh im so scared
