[@audieAM]

yeah i think the table is a poor choice. causes a disconnect between you and the guests, if your going for a more intimate approach.

[@ChrisPFuchs]

The aggressive compression is bringing out the room acoustics imo. So either chill with the compression or throw up some absorption/diffusion.

I've loved Nadeshot and Hecz for years, I remember first hearing about Optic back in MW3 and I've been following the journey of both Nadeshot and Hecz since then. I love how much they've been able to build in their years within the industry and I'm so happy I've been invested in your stories over the years Nade, you seem like a real standup guy and I loved how awkward you used to seem back in the BO2 days haha! Anyway I hope to meet you someday maybe if our journeys align, It would be awesome to meet someone I have been following for so many years. Keep up the great work brother, much love!

[@wizzyobregon2513]

Been waiting for this since yesterday

[@TheDimeMInister]

I love how humble Hecz is. Nothing beats someone in an incredible position in their life, yet still remaining so down to Earth. It's very easy to brag about what you have and how much money you spend and forget what you had - or rather DIDN'T have - beforehand. Here's to hoping for 10 more years of Optic Gaming and 100T!

[@XxWhIpLaSh18xX]

Kinda surprised you didn't go with "Self Made with Nade". Also, the room you're in sounds quite echo-y.

[@KillaJNL]

its not the room its probably the audio that is not mixed off right :P with these mic audio should be pristine no matter where you at!

[@BenjaminPC746]

He most likely did it for marketing/ popularity as more people would search Nadeshot than Nade but I agree that it would have been a better name.

[@nanderson49]

Following Optic from the start and watching 100T unfold and everyone grow is so moving. Creating the sense of community is something that I hold super close and it's all thanks to you guys!

You should really rewrite the title to Selfmade with Nadeshot - [Person/topic] It’s visually better tbh

[@benjaminp2776]

This video is much more for H3CZ more than it is for Nade. Branding takes a backseat to him getting his message out there, because people specifically in the League of Legends community aren't aware of how big a deal OpTic is.

Lol he already did that. Look behind nadeshot. It says "selfmade with nadeshot" I just realized it too so dont feel bad. 7:20.

Perfect! I loved this podcast! Hecz i hope you get that 1million you deserve to hit that goal! Ive been watchin you guys for 7-8 years now and everything you guys have done and continue to do is much appreciated. This industry would not be the same without you guys. Its been an amazing experience to live my childhood dreams through you guys with Optic and now 100T as well. Never did i think that gaming would have come so far and still have so much room for growth and a big part of that is from what you guys bring to the table. Congrats on all your success and may the future hold even more success for you both and your respective teams/families. Side note that statue💯

[@blakeraphael9936]

i just wanted to say i cant express this enough that what hecz and nadeshot have done and become... from nadeshot being one of the faces of optic gaming and hecz a pioneer in the esports community! its just great to see, also that nade has come away from optic but you can still see that its imbedded within him even he no longer represents optic gaming but he is still a member even though his org now is 100T. you can see that with optic's ceo and founder hecz, showing off the 100T apparel in optic gaming videos also with other members of optic such as scump and crimsix! you can really tell that they are really close friends that even though nade has created the org 100T a direct competitor to optic gaming, hecz is proud of his friend/family and wishes him all the success to be a top esport org, and nadeshot seems he will never forget that his humble beginnings started with optic gaming.

[@slimmreaper9290]

I could watch this all day. This show is Goated. 🤩🐐

[@BRAINPAINx]

Nadeshot great podcast man. I would like to recommend and idea for future episodes for down the road as the podcast develops. I think it would be cool to get someone who is working on a name for them self, and you hosting almost like an interview to bring a fan onto the podcast almost. For instance someone in college, and what ambitions they want to bring as they graduate or a smaller name in the esports community and how they want to build themselves into a bigger brand. Obviously big time name guest are really awesome too I was just thinking sometime down the road you also give something like this a try. I tried to describe this as brief and thorough as I can, so if it is misconstrued I am sorry. Anyway amazing podcast I love hearing amazing insight on what you guys bring to the show thank you.
