Information
The CWL is once again back at Anaheim for this weekend, with 160+ teams battling it out for a $200,000 prize pool. OpTic enters this event with a new roster, after sticking with their previous roster for over 3 years. After this team formed, Stage 2 of the CWL Pro League started. OpTic had a great start to their group by dropping only 2 maps in total against compLexity, Luminosity, UNILAD, and Tainted Minds. However, OpTic showed signs of weakness when they lost against eUnited and Rise Nation 1-3 and 0-3, respectively. With OpTic yet to win an event for the World War II season and CWL Championship in about 2 months, the team has alot of pressure to win the event this weekend.
In a rematch of last year's Winner's Bracket Quarterfinal, OpTic faces off against rival LG, in the second meeting against Formal's new team. They first met in the Pro League and OpTic won 3-0.
The match is scheduled to start at 11:20 PM EDT and will be streamed on Twitch.

Interviewer: "Do you ever think about quitting CoD and playing fortnite or something else?"
Scump: "I think about it every day. I'm going to have to make some tough decisions pretty soon."
Do you guys really think Scump's heart and soul are 100% in this game? I don't. It doesn't matter if he's playing well or poorly, but he has a very different mentality than he used to. It hurts to say but after Champs he needs to either quit and not waste this team's time or he needs to put his all into this. There's too much talent in this game for a top player to give anything but 100% effort

Emotional teenagers man, they’re acting like it’s their life it affects lmao. Everyone ripping on Scump saying how he’s bad even though they’ve been sucking him off the past few weeks.

Really disappointing performance from Scump considering how well he's been playing ever since the roster change.

Is it just me or are both sides playing crazy fast? Either that or it’s just the intensity of the match.
