I always loved Lunchbox growing up, and him being OG is just such a dream come true, especially him winning the big one with us

[@MrMemesAndChill]

Yeah same! I’m so glad he’s still involved after all these years

[@3OG6050]

1:04 How's off-season been. & Scrims talk. 1:54 How did it feel to get first ever chip and then become World Champ? 3:01 Have y'all been playing Halo since? 3:19 Halo Forge. & Map changes. 4:40 Talking to the 2x World Champion. 6:00 2011 and now coaching differences. Lunchbox still got it. 7:26 Difference between COD and Halo coaching. COD coaches kinda useless? 8:34 Clip Talk of Shotzzy eventually will go back to Halo, misses his roots. Is that how Formal felt? 9:46 Trivia Question: 4,075 days' significance? 10:29 Crazy story lines of OpTic Halo team. 11:13 Do you think the push to retirement for Esports players is more of a physical or passion thing. Financial security. 12:18 APG is just Halo and Codenames. 13:21 AD BREAK: Scuf. 14:04 RESUME. Do you have comradery or comp with guys you come up with? 15:51 U guys no stranger to competing with Legends. 16:32 What was this season like and what made yall go in the right direction for Lucid and Trippy. It was Formal? 18:43 From outside looking in it seemed APG and Ola played same role. Trippy on Formal coming in. 19:22 Think Streetball was a pivotal point in taking last 2 tournaments? 20:24 Haven't lost a scrim. 21:17 While Formal was playing on Sentinels vs OpTic, did he think it'd be his future(Halo). Formal been planting the seeds. 23:22 Future for Halo and HCS. Unionization. 24:35 Formal on how Halo is similar to COD with disconnection between Devs and Pros.

We don’t deserve you

[@johntrimble9337]

My man's is everywhere! Clutch.

[@OMGitsahorse]

Inner Circle episodes are BY FAR my favorite piece of content that OpTic produces. As a fan of Competitive Halo since 2008, seeing Lunchbox still around in the scene brings a tear to my eye. He's been around since 2007 and is one of the brightest minds in Halo. Couldn't ask for a better coach.

[@rabbitparadise]

25:00 huge facts formal, respect this empathy, i agree i think this is a huge problem across a lot of games. devs have room to improve, but players rarely look inwards and realize how they can make the feedback process more functional. devs are people too!

[@alexvielfaure2981]

Optic's production is always immaculate

[@lafset1064]

Shout out to FORMAL for telling it like it is man. I’ve shared the same viewpoint with how pros go about criticism

[@JimmyRingz]

Facts

[@attentionseeker653]

Interesting hearing Formal talking about the roles of coaching in COD and Halo. I wonder how things would be in COD if the coach could talk to the players in game/throughout. Watching you guys win the championship in Halo live was incredible.

[@therko01]

meeting FormaL before the matches on Championship sunday was crazy definitely being there live was amazing

[@CJ-fz9gt]

Cod is too fast paced a coach would just flood the comms

[@attentionseeker653]

@@CJ-fz9gt Fair point. Maybe instead of constant comms their input would be minimal - mainly to ensure they stick to the plan and inform the team when they need to adapt and how.

[@hdhejehwkaje6542]

​@@CJ-fz9gtwould probably just help play call/call breaks off the start. And let people know what they need to cover or what's open that the enemy can come from

[@raymond1152]

I’ll say it again . This is the best Halo Optic team ever. Easy to root for all of them.

[@blaqadam8710]

That finals rested on Lucids shoulders to perform. Getting MVP before the finals mightve been detrimental as Lucid needed to step up hes a star and quite funnily enough he took over in that final series to win. What a moment

[@johnmarston2638]

Glad I’m following these group of guys right now in their prime of the game. Pretty enjoyable watching their scrims transfer over to LAN and then winning. It’s like if your there with them.

[@c4gob00m]

Honestly love this halo team purely for the personalities on it. They all seem like really really close people as well outside of the game.

[@davidfuentes2331]

Formal take on COD Coaching is on point . Man he’s hitting the nail on the head . Wow ! Can we have a 1 on 1 with Dashy . Man that would be so crazy.

[@7ooLeY]

FormaL - "OpTic is OP. Everything is pack-a-punch." and to add to that, as a fan, it literally says everything about how I feel about OpTic. I could never follow/support another brand and organisation. Others just don't hit the same 🔥

[@harryhayes7057]

Hitch is such a good host! I’ve never really been into halo but this group of players and obviously formal has really made me get involved in the Scene. #H4F

[@artisam9484]

Damn Formal getting a couple shots in there for Big Brucey. Respect the loyalty. He's right too

[@rjauelua1]

Makes sense now after hearing dashy side of the story..

[@crashandflowpodcast]

Formal's fantastic closeout statement: "that's why OP is the first two letters of the org, it's just so OP" 👌🏾

[@eddupont504]

Bruh... APG is Sooooo Faded off that Pine Park

[@B_M_A]

2:45 to 3:03 was so good, they are totally right.

[@NorseNoahJ]

Formal indirectly calling out Spartan’s whiny ass at 24:39 brings me joy.

[@daleyfitness4971]

Apg was on mars good lord 😂

[@Hysetzz]

Why you gotta snitch like that 🤣

[@YouNoMeDawg]

Dawg I got an ad for Mars before the video started

[@WhatsaMOUN]

Optic better be paying lunchbox well that man has a world of experience and knowledge

[@tylerkay825]

Idk what they are paying him but I can guarantee he is the highest paid halo coach.

[@lupomena]

H3CZ always takes care of his people 🪃

[@MrBleviins]

The shot at Rambo 😅😂😂 I agree though. They don’t need him bruh

[@astute1655]

How long you play is definitely a passion thing. There are fight game pros who compete well into their 40s and their hands are under a lot more pressure than any CoD or halo pro, or any esport pro for that matter.

[@OhAndron]

that ending gave me goosebumps hahaha that was amazing. can't wait to see what the bois do in season 2!

[@wilesmedia]

best of this round the table style content out in gaming

Man that ain't trippy, that's Drippy 😭💚💯

[@CHA0Z_-]

My childhood watching Halo to now all together in a circle. Once again though nice work from the production team.

[@crizzop1194]

Inner circle is one of the best content pieces ever created. And the way Formal ended the video was straight 🔥🔥

[@A7ZATRU]

25:33 I think this is the first time I've seen a pro CoD or Halo player say this, which is the truth

[@Iwannacrynonamew]

Matt will always be a legend of and a cornerstone of OpTic. Even the part where he left OpTic 😂

[@xJaGG3d]

"That's why OP are the first two letters of the org, it's just OP being on OpTic" damn

[@Mike-ro8oh]

Great content as always , can’t wait to support these guys this year

[@ismaelsierra9946]

Formal is the Goat hands down.

[@zaucy_]

Bro you are everywhere. I swear we watch the same exact videos 😂 I watch a tac rab video, there you are. Watch an optic video, there's Ismael! Lmaoo

[@Flyaway99]

Wow I was literally just thinking about how I was waiting for another inner circle. Couldn’t have come at a better time.

[@retropyro]

CoD CDL coaches crying in a corner after that 😂 Formal doesn't hold back.

Dumbest shit I’ve ever heard ngl

I’m so stoked that we just got the Halo team on for a cool talk video. We need more Halo Content 🖤

[@zootty]

APG off those Trolli gummies 😂

[@OrionInSpace]

You literally could not have asked for a better video for the Inner Circle then this. When I look at this team and what it has done for Halo I just want to hear this story more than anything.🙏 An inner circle full of goats.🐐

[@andresmith3797]

formal giving a icy line at the end of the video is so tippable

[@xTheHairyPalmx]

All love to Formal, but he couldn't have done it without that solid group of guys on his team. Buncha legends

[@AdamYT24]

Well of course. Could say the same about the COD dynasty team too of course

[@keatszn6610]

Damn lucid is FRIED in this I love him

Such a gross team. All seem like such nice dudes too. Grats again boys it was a pleasure to watch y’alls progression over season 1 💚🙌

[@JustinG88]

APG hitting the Pine Park.... HAHA

[@spoonsVSforks]

Formals mindset on how they can play not as good and win and play amazing and still lose is sooo true in competitive gaming in general

So grateful for another inner circle!!!……but. Who’s making hitch ask these questions, we’ve heard them answer these a million times by now. I wasn’t expecting sean evans level questions but damn, if you’re gonna preface each question with “I know you been asked this 100 times, but…” maybe you should ask something else?
