The Greatest Reverse Sweep In RLCS History.. | OpTic Gaming Comms VS FaZe Clan

[@enderic5225]

I probably aged 10 years watching this series live. Retals back at lan is what I’ve been waiting the entire season for and it’s finally happening!

[@irqed6390]

Some players might never get a reverse sweep in a bo5 series in their whole career. Retals has gotten a reverse sweep in a bo7 series in back to back seasons. Now that's greatness.

[@eddypkk]

i was an ssg fan, after retals was released i was so angry because i knew whatever team he went to would be good

[@firte3899]

fun fact retals has 9 reverse sweeps in his career the second most of any NA pro the #1 pro Ayyjayy has 10!

[@CameronStones]

And against faze. Unbelievable!

[@Nocusewords]

Fun fact 2:Faze has lost 2 of the 3 Bo7 reverse sweeps.The first one being against Nrg in the second winter regional last season.

Bro day 1 optic fan is like less than a year lmao what are you talking about

[@CosmicS5]

Crazy how Retals has reverse swept 2 teams now and FK has been reverse swept twice. Why Slater is the goat in my eyes

[@plusalpal21]

It's because Retals is a good leader and hype man, FK is neither, no offense to him. Faze need a leader and or hype man but they don't have anyone like that which is why they always fall short.

All the talk on Retals (deservedly so) but AyyJayys comms have impressed me so much. He speaks up at clutch moments, constantly bigs up his teammates and just in general is very vocal. Alongside the fact he’s an absolutely incredible player, the fact he’s got amazing comms just adds to his calibre as a player. I probably sound incredibly bias and like an AyyJayy fanboy hahahaha, but I’m sure a lot of you agree with this!

[@solizemusic]

Yeah his comms were super solid later on in the series especially

[@jarrelwilliams7176]

This series was more hype than the entire NBA playoffs

[@roughluxury]

nba finals maybe but playoffs hell nah cuh

Denver tore through the entire conference then ran through the heat. If you didn't enjoy it, it just means you don't like fundamental and solid basketball. Bro probably hates the spurs and Tim Duncan too.

Stay Up Some seriously high IQ game sense on display by our boy Retals in game 7. Everyone popped off, but you showed why you're a serious contendor in this game. So many unbelievable and unexpected touches that put your team in a massive advantage. AJ and MB just had to be in the right place and its easy goals. This team maintains this creativity and aggression on the pitch and NA guna need to watch out.

[@evannatteford1784]

You will always be the GOAT in my heart Retals, mad respect to you and the optic boys for this series I always knew you Ayjayy and MB we’re gonna do great things together and it’s so nice to see all your hard work coming to fruition, keep up the grind and keep balling out G.

Retals is definately one of my favorite players. Its inspiring how he has incredible leadership and gamesense skills, which overshadows any flashy mechnicial play.

[@camdyer9675]

Watched this live and this video probably 15 times over. Let’s win this major man. I think I speak for the Green Wall in saying that you guys got this. Play confident. Retals, you play smart and lead the team, Ayyjayy and MB get those solo plays going early and often. Do that consistently and you guys will be crowned major champions in a few short weeks. Love you guys. GO OPTIC

[@SeanTBarrett]

Oh man, learning how the FK-disconnected goal happened because ayyjayy stopped playing seriously because FK was disconnected, and meanwhile the casters were saying something like "obviously the goal is going to count since FK's disconnection didn't have any effect on the play". This is exactly why we've heard Retals before say "keep playing seriously until there's a pause".

This was a sight to behold. The fact that you guys went down 0-3, got 2 games back, lost a 4 goal lead, but still managed to win game6 in OT, then in game7 recovering from trailing by a goal twice and winning the series to qualify to Boston is nothing short of incredible. This is easily the craziest way to qualify for a major I've ever seen Huge congratulations and best of luck in Boston. With a mental like this, you guys can definitely surprise any team and make a deep run

I'm so happy for these guys. You can really feel the emotions when you hear the intensity of their comms. It shows you how different is from their perspective than as a fan. It requires mental strength. And unlike the morons in ranked who turn toxic and lose, when they make a big mistake, they encourage each other by saying "it's fine, it's fine" and move right on to the next play. That helps you win- take a note to yourselves folks, especially if you're toxic. Btw Retals - you're un...real.
