Envoy is so well spoken for being in the younger CDL player generation (i know he played in AW and bo4) he can really be the professional face of a franchise. Glad to see the prince is happy with his new roster

[@LiveLuckyGaming]

Honestly, i think it helps to work with H3CZ. He puts them in front of the camera and kinda coaches them up.

[@mkwsoxfan]

@@LiveLuckyGaming you can hear envoy audibly resist swearing at a couple points in the interview too. Which is either an upbringing thing or a media training result. Very professional player

[@nocapnobap3095]

The optic effect

[@LiveLuckyGaming]

@@nocapnobap3095 Hey some people may not like OpTic, but no one can deny they figured the formula out.

[@JayS700]

​@@LiveLuckyGamingwhat formula?

[@inslts]

gonna wash the dishes and watch this thank you

[@TorontoUltra]

It will make those dishes go by so much faster

[@mkwsoxfan]

The fact that huntsman were 2 snd rounds away from beating faze at MW champs is wild. Combined with a couple heartbreaking round 11s in cold war those teams were literally one input away from the CDL timeline being insanely different

[@sheltondmello8031]

They honestly should have gone 5 in losers too. Cell snaking the fuck in that kitchen costed them the game.

[@rissky.]

No way they were beating Empire though, respectfully

[@ismaelsierra9946]

These never disappoint, let's go Envoy!!!

[@ClumzySergio]

You guys are awesome ! Thank you for another dope cast.❤

[@Dgusting]

Dyl is extremely hard to dislike lol. Just seems like a very level headed, genuine guy. Im an OpTic fan and was very sad to see him go after CW but I haven't stopped rooting for him since, kinda like when I rooted for LG when FormaL was there

[@Mjot101]

My favourite player on my home town team, I can't wait for the season to start man

[@Munchonmushies]

Lfgggg, been waiting for this one 👌 envoy is a big W for Ultra, can't wait for the 2024 season

[@cavemandan543210]

That headphone flip thing is insaaaaaaane

[@aRedTalonPro]

I listen to absolutely everything on x2 speed. Hilarious. First I've ever heard someone mention this.

[@1upJeCK]

Theres no way to dislike this dude... hes gross at the game and still so fkn humble

[@7991christiancoreas]

I just had a baby too ! and I felt those words in my soul when joe was talking about no sleep 😂😂we got this dawg!💯💯

[@jakeschreiber7861]

The big 3 is Faze/Ultra/Optic? I see NY is getting slept on already…….

[@ogrichiet4969]

Gonna b a guud year for Ultra

[@TorontoUltra]

If you could build a roster of the best COD players All Time who would it be?

[@inslts]

scrap, that’s all.

[@sampsasipila]

Dashy, Pred, Shotzzy and Kenny

[@Bearghoster]

Abezy, Scump, Karma, Formal

[@Sky-pz7pe]

Abezy, Hydra, Formal, Scrap

[@About36Greekss]

Scump abezy cellium formal

[@spectersnipez7942]

Envoy is the best glad he didn’t go back to Optic they don’t value his skill he’s better than pred his playstyle is so unique

[@jakeedwards1668]

Pred’s playstyle is pretty unique too

[@bigdog2488]

envoy start streaming and youtube again!

[@zainb2261]

This team is gonna slam if the subs in this new game are actually decent and the game has a skill gap. I see scrap being wildly consistent and cleanx has the craziest centring for a sub, envoy can do it all and insight just needs to go positive lol

[@vagabondcaleb8915]

RIP Huskers.

[@Slayer-tv8ub]

Ironic how he said “you are losing by 150 points, then the games over” didn’t legion come back 232-60? Never get complacent 😂🤣😂

[@JACKRIDERPLAYZ]

❤

[@JayS700]

Bro, I love Maven, but does he start the show high as fuck? I feel like the drones and drags his questions or statements

[@itzSkout]

and his mic is ass

[@isaiahwavy9856]

Get Kenny on the next podcast please

[@EarlobeJuice]

Have they interviewed players twice? Not that I mind, Kenny is all vibes! He’s on vacation soon I think though.

[@isaiahwavy9856]

@@EarlobeJuice I don’t think he was on before

[@EarlobeJuice]

@@isaiahwavy9856 he was, they interviewed Kenny after he won champs in Vanguard. It was a great interview.

[@isaiahwavy9856]

@@EarlobeJuice think your mistaking it off the octane one, even this episode they said we got all your teammates on besides Kenny

[@EarlobeJuice]

@@isaiahwavy9856 Ahhh yes you’re right this was a different episode, they were gassing Kenny a lot that episode I assumed he was interviewed.

[@TissueMe]

Envoy wouldn’t work with Dashy.

[@tomislavdatyrant]

Envoy simply wears his headphones backwards because the mic is forced to be on one side of face. Old Xbox mic days you can wear it either way

[@packrunner5876]

Not everyone in Toronto is “So Nice” you guys stay in Downtown and think you’ve seen the whole city 😂😂😂 come to South side of Jane, south side Weston road, Rexdale and let’s see if u think everyone is so nice eh!

[@mkwsoxfan]

What did you want him to say "Toronto is alright" or "some parts are decent" I'm sure he hasn't been to the bad parts you're speaking on but bruh can't just say "yea it's disgusting but I'm moving there" 😂😂😂

[@bigdog2488]

😂😂😂😂 dawg every city has hoods tdot isn’t anything special, people here are nice

[@johnnyramuz9065]

Again, 90% biopic and 10% current Rostermania and community questions. Such a wasted opportunity

[@maven]

Lmao that’s literally what the podcast is. 99% of community questions we are already covering. Rostermania there is barely anything to touch on…

[@maven]

Our goal with this was to shed light on players and personalities. Cover history and moments that many haven’t heard of. Chat with them in a way that other podcasts don’t. If you just want community questions and rostermania talk…there are other avenues for that.

[@Munchonmushies]

Rostermania discussion has been overdone on podcasts at this point, I would prefer a 1 on 1 about a player and their come up than the exact same convo we have already heard on the flank/optic podcast/etc.

[@BSGRoyalHD]

L comment

[@anonymoush5454]

Toronto having nothing to discuss in a podcast so they ride typical headlines ?!
