Great show on the fly. Still wish Ben would of took his pants off

[@WhatDude1]

Stop going to the events, it makes the flank worse because you can’t even breakdown anything, it ruins what your show actually is it adds nothing to the show for the fans it just makes it worse because you get kicked out of everywhere. Just do it how you do normally it would be way better.

U can tell they knew OpTic was their only competition & they studied them hard while maybe OpTic did study hard, but didn't prioritize LAT. They were reading then extremely well in both series.

[@Temqtatixn]

Yeah keep coping kid. Why wouldn’t they prioritise thieves considering how dominant they were this split. You’re talking out ur ass

Also helps with LAT coaching staff knowing Optic was the only one actually giving them competition

As an OpTic fan is sucks to get back to back 2nd places but big respect and love to the LAT boys they played insane today. I got to watch some good COD all weekend tho no matter what happened and that is all that really matters.

It was worrying to get slammed by 100t after only playing Boston/NY and not knowing if optic could really keep pace with 100t, it was nice to beat faze convincingly and put up a battle in the finals instead of ending the major with thieves being miles ahead of the 2nd best team

[@Ujw0]

@The Simulator yet again always talking about optic... just like in Europe cr7 does something wrong his name all over the news come on now. Yall think optic is happy with back to back major finals 2nd?? They are furious and confused on how they can't seem to finish a series in a final for this past year

[@DreammakerDev]

This event proved that OpTic & Thieves are far and away better than every other team rn even FaZe . Both teams just make very minimal mistakes and have epic teamwork . Gonna be excited to watch the further battles they have 💯

[@iAztrend]

[@krispyquam5713]

Kenny and Octane were insane this stage

[@Leon_2777]

Optics subs got locked down from making plays, whilst Optics ARs couldn't get a handle on Thieves' subs. Thieves read every team they played like a book. Truly amazing series, great COD this weekend! If Huke can find a consistency, Shotzzy can slow down in his play making for better timings, Dashy can learn spawn rotations like Ghosty, and Ghosty get a lil more selfish in slaying, they win Champs no question.

[@chrisguapoo]

Nah Shotzzy and Huke need to play more fundamental, once u shut their routes down they literally provide nothing , they need to give up the flashy shit go back to the basics

Well as an OpTic fan it’s kinda win/win if they don’t win the rest of the season they are picking up Pred. If they do win they are a battle hardened team w chem going into next season first time.

[@dillyboyq]

Yeah that’s how I’ve been looking at it lol.. I’m just like alright cool if Huke is frying we should be winning everything but if he doesn’t then Pred is right around the corner. I love Huke tho and I’m glad he’s playing like their best player & I really hope they win an event.. If OpTic wins champs it’s gonna be such a hard decision this off season. But I’d def pack a punch in this scenario because Pred has quite literally been undeniable. Huke has had some maps in between where he doesn’t do too well but Pred just constantly is frying and making plays every single map. Good dilemma to be in I suppose

[@SSx90]

They will still be mid

[@user-ch8il6og4f]

I think this pretty much guarantees that Optic won’t be scrimming Thieves after this event. I believe they were scrimming quite a bit before this event and it obviously made Thieves a lot better. Well played to both Optic and Thieves they were both in a tier of their own this stage.

Other than hydro which was thieves fav hard point map and was a close game both times, lat dominated mercado and optic dominated fortress. So I'd say they were pretty even in hard point. Only way to know who's actually better is if hydro wasn't played twice and others like hotel were played.

Man LAT against optic like their AR’s are so damn discipline and their subs can’t miss they were shooting so straight and they were anticipating Optics subs so well whether is vod or they COACH posted up behind optic while they were playing which imo is unacceptable in no other sport can you do that being that close to the opposite team that they aren’t playing literally hearing their strats and what not it’s a way different advantage from just watching vod no bs that shouldn’t be allowed.

Vegas definitely would’ve dumpstered Thieves if they didn’t choke. Thieves got lucky this event.

Faze would have benefitted more from losing to NYSL in the long term. They have enough CDL points, they need a reality check in teamwork and coms, and cheesing a series win off of NY off of just simply out skilling them hardly benefits them, if anything it gives them delusional confidence that they can get bailed out by breaking down teams, meanwhile optic/thieves are perfecting their teamwork and communication
