OPTIC'S COACH REVEALS HOW THEY WENT 5-0, AND WHY THEY DROPPED ILLEY

[@jetsgo66]

“Helping them perform at the highest level” including becoming a human curtain and blocking the sun in that last match haha. W JP

[@clemsin]

I respect JP not only for helping OpTic out, dude is in the back silent just grinding. Keeping a low profile but making a loud impact. Respect.

[@ShreyasGaneshs]

This was actually super insightful JP needs more appreciation for his coaching /analysis I'm sure it's helped optic hit this form to some level as welll

[@OPGrimmz]

He gets it , you may just be misinformed .

[@dillyboyq]

Love this pod specifically so much.. the structure is unmatched & you can never beat 2 absolute OGs to the scene. Keep it up!

[@ThagameDev]

I’ve been waiting for this episode. Miss these dudes casting league matches. The CDL should be ashamed depriving us of the best COD casting duo of all time!!

[@ayooreckit]

Great episode. JP hasn’t appeared in any OpTic content and I been wanted to know more about him. MnM dual is goated.

[@giovanniwoodall7613]

“I’m not sorry, fuck you guys” lmfao bro I love maven so much

[@rmaacc25]

My question made it 🙌

[@Nixxolass]

Toronto is genius for bringing these guys on for content always love to hear these guys!

[@jkihnftw8615]

maven just putting JP on his back foot RIGHT off rip loololol

[@buuthakid3819]

JP mind is just a computer processing information and giving valuable info to his troupes!

[@akrynim9626]

This is great listening to maven complain he wants more stats that he will forget when asked about

[@matthewnguyen1544]

“Shotzzy doesn’t bleed green”🤓

[@swan2321]

Gaming Data Analyst ? im in , hire me Optic

[@brenden7526]

get this guy on the watch party on his next off day

[@vtruee2948]

We have to get Donny Temp on

[@colbyfrost5110]

I don’t think Dan gets enough respect in the league especially hearing how he got to the league no one deserves to be a starting rookie on optic more then Dan

[@MADDOGLIAM97]

Omg that Maven dog story 😅

[@omarm4565]

my boy voice cracks every other sentence

[@megadeth6756]

Was a tough listen for sure

[@chappyTHO]

I'm over here like "please don't crack, please don't crack" and it would crack about every 10 seconds.. but it is what it is lol

[@TruVibezz]

i need a standard deviation statistic for kpm :(

[@deanmarker991]

Maven talking about having to make his dogs puke is wildly relatable with a chocolate lab ahahaha

[@onoskelis9088]

JP is the fucking best, the guy is so good at what he does

[@c4gob00m]

It's funny that nobody really took Rays side and everyone defended Dashy, but Maven said Teep had the exact same issues and frustrations with Dashy

[@tristansocias6148]

Well it’s clearly not dashys fault is it ? The team is the best it’s looked in a very long time

[@beerdo]

Dashy was kept on OpTic, TeeP ended up back there cause the merger.

[@acejay6050]

Doesn’t sound like it was the same type of issues tho, especially seeing Dashy is still there

[@irrelevant1341]

​​@@acejay6050not sure how well you follow the scene. But Seth and Ant both said that when Dashy got dropped this second time it was because he was continuing to still do things he said he wouldn't do. Even Dashy said this himself. He was benched on fake OG (basically what became that LAT team) for issues unrelated to playing the game according to Kenny. So why is it hard for you to believe that Dashy has a very specific out-of-game issue that so far all of his teams seem to have had? His skill has never been an issue.

[@c4gob00m]

@@tristansocias6148 because Dashy finally changed. The issues they were having with Dashy which lead to him getting dropped are the same issues that TeeP was complaining to Maven about

[@Benitolou156]

OpTic Texas has the MoneyBall effect.

[@jamilelundrigam]

just money*****

[@Verrrrao]

Where is the reason they dropped Illey?

[@coreygoodman2295]

dumb question are merk and maven content creators for toronto? also unreal podcast or show haha need more people like these 3 in the scene

[@TorontoUltra]

They do be creating content for us! We brought them on for the podcast because we love them as much as the community does!

[@DownForceSimRacing]

@@coreygoodman2295 i will say scrappy a bit too childish for me to cross over to being a fan lotta respect for his natural talent but his attitude that kills. i think its costing them. this split screams of chemistry issues and i wonder where those issues are coming from. dude would literally slam his headset and storm off after every single map loss. i dont even wanna hear what he was saying behind them closed doors. his childish traits also are his strengths aswell yk besides just being outright good at cod. hes got that rising star arrogance which is a double edged sword it hypes the team up but i bet u it also kills vibes.

[@Battlefield3isdabest]

Never heard so many voice cracks in my life

[@atoatooo4019]

shotzzy doesn’t bleed green😞 Dashy is the only one keeping the scene alive for ME.. all the OGs are gone

[@god0fbeards830]

The hell you talking about. 😂

[@atoatooo4019]

@@itzMehzo you don’t keep up with everything i see. shotzzy would’ve been on faze if scump retired like he WANTED to at the end of Vanguard. he didn’t so shotzzy wouldn’t leave

[@imghostmedia]

@@atoatooo4019 there’s no guarantee he would’ve actually went to FaZe, that could’ve easily been an negotiating tactic for a nice contract extension but he’s the face of OpTic along with Dashy so it doesn’t matter

[@BuddyChy]

@@atoatooo4019no we keep up with that and that doesn’t matter. He was about to end up alone looking for 3 or had the opportunity to play with Simp, ABezy, and Cell… that’s hard to pass up. You can’t blame him for that. It doesn’t make him any less Optic now.

[@mkwsoxfan]

I can't even blame him, if the roster was scump retiring, illey injured, and dashy (undroppable face of OG) then what was shottzy to do, optics rumored teams weren't that amazing, the rumors were hydra, maybe cammy, or Alec in the vanguard off-season. In hindsight a team of shottzy,dashy,cammy/Alec, and hydra is completely underwhelming when you have an option to join faze. I don't blame him for exploring other options given that criteria.

[@trollprodz]

Maven has some god awful takes

[@beerdo]

consider him a vocal advocate for the average cod fan lol

[@Mjot101]

if you think about it, it's a little fucked that Optic has him doing the job of a head coach, but hasn't given him the title and so he's not getting as much credit.

[@BattleRatsRapBattles]

He’s not the coach tho lol. He’s still the analyst. Pro Call of Duty players shouldn’t even need a coach. They’re all great players and it’s not fucking rocket science lol. They just need someone to breakdown gameplay as an outsider, record games & set reminders so they can focus on practice and content. Ray thought he was a Drill Sergeant and that’s what got him booted.

[@pointnine7844]

All round one of the not so good episodes
