When Hecz says “The best CoD team that has ever existed” I tear up a little inside. So many teenage years spent following, watching, subbing to that team and when it was all said and done I can say I witnessed a piece of CoD history. Truly incredible.
Amen brother. It was such a blast rooting for them regardless of all the hate they were getting at the time. We almost had Bo3 as well! Imagine formal wins that 1v1 on Stronghold S&D? We win champs for sure. But alas I digress, such a beautiful thing. I'll support Optic til the day I day.
15:20 is one my favorite moments in cod history watching these boys. I remember watching this match cheering my head off. I went nuts at the start of the map and that play from karma was something else. Shit gives me chills everytime thinking about it. Thanks for the memories green wall 💚
IW was such a good competitive year, there was a really fun pro league (first LAN league) lots of majors and lots of different teams winning (off the top of my head; optic, envy, eUnited, possibly rise/Lg
Member watching this live I knew once they won the first series in the grand finals that it was over . It wasn’t so much of nV choking . Optic just played damn. Ear perfect cod
Bro I still can’t get over this year. The culmination of so much hard work that year and all the sadness from prior years, I’m still so happy they won it.
Bella touching the trophy in this Vision episode will never not make me cry.... (context: coming from a dad; this is the dream for a father, winning something like this and having your baby there to be in the moment and enjoy it with you.... fucking wild)
He was so smart. If he didn’t wanna die he wouldn’t. He was all about the win though. So he’d make the best play for the team. A few times you’d see guy go on insane kill streaks against top teams. So different
Yoooo Ant, do a video on how you switched from halo to COD, a lot of us don’t know, we wanna hear the story. Also like the struggles and how it was at the beginning with empire.
The funny story about that nV team was that they were completely checked out as a unit because of contract obligations and they were supposed to split right before playoffs. Only went hard at champs because they knew they had good odds to win besides OpTic
I actually cried in the beginning of this video. I have a son and that little voice a child has, is the most soothing and cutest thing on this planet earth. You cannot tell me otherwise. Just fucking adorable.
Optic hire this man! Haha that'd be so sick to see. IW Formal was next level.. and I can't even imagine what shottzy would be like on a jetpack game lol
@@chromedomo4826 if cod had a finals MVP like NBA does i dont see how you dont give it to karma here edit: didnt mean to take away from Formals performance the entire event, but karma had a higher finals K/D and performed every map when he does all the dirty work that arent supposed to get him a high k/d

Dude u almost had me tearing reading this shit... true the golden age of OpTiC 💚
Facts homie. I can remember the day and where I was and everything. This squad was goated.

so true

Formal with the Interception was crazy I bet this is hella motivation for Shotzzy
actually crazy how dominate Shotzzy would be at Uplink lmfao. i can just imagine all the crazy shit he would do on the map.
jetpacks cods in general 😭
Bruh never crossed my mind but now i feel like i need to see shotzzy on jetpack cod
@@Ovechkinsnipes8 for real we saw what dashy was doing on bo3 dude almost dropped a GI Unit 😂
he would've been something different in jetpack cods
This team would be insane in a jetpack cod, holy shit. Them vs faze would be something else
"They got their ring right there and then? Oh wait we won our shit online" lmao
Let’s go get you one with optic now😈😤
Get you one with some bitches bro
@@saucekay6793 L comment
@@Duckyy22 damn bro you called him out on it and everything lol
@@saucekay6793 get outta here with that dead ass song , wearing a mask in the pic cause you know you done got a messed up grill 🤡
lol well now this is a W comment
let's appreicate shotzzy for creating content
27:55 bro the timing with him asking if apathy is on the team and then it pops up showing apathy’s face is so sick
Fr bro I was like damn
“Methodz was dogshit” 😂😂😂
"Good to know. Good to know..." LOL
I mean it's true. Methodz back them was pretty bad
It's been years since the win and Seven still makes me emotional
this shit giving me good flashbacks to the good old times. im glad i watched this live

Damon in IW is one of the most slept on seasons for a player he was a monster that game
Damon Barlow is the greatest of all time. No one was better in his prime
Just think about his camo plays, most clutch player I've ever seen
If he doesn't clutch that 1v1 against fastballa we would have had a very different iw season
need to see shotzzy on a jetpack cod at least in my lifetime
Will never see it
Dont think theyll ever release another one.. i miss them too cod hasnt been good since bo3 imo
shotzzy on a jetpack cod would have one of the greatest years in cod history 😭😭
IW was such a good competitive year, there was a really fun pro league (first LAN league) lots of majors and lots of different teams winning (off the top of my head; optic, envy, eUnited, possibly rise/Lg
Rise
EUnited
Optic
Splyce
LG
Damon is a national treasure 😂
Optic Dynasty could never be beat. Most skill gap cods we will ever witnesse along with the top 4 players of all time. When they wanted, untouchable.
@david gallacher coL wasn't a dynasty bro. The even existed only half a year as that team😂

38:00 Karma’s the GOAT but IW FormaL was in a tier of his own. 🐐
Imagine how OP this optic team would be on a jetpack cod 😂😂
Ong 💯
Y’all forgot about aw?
The fact that you brought us our next world championship is fucking wild. I love our team nowadays!! New dynasty in the making for OpTic!!
Bella touching the trophy in this Vision episode will never not make me cry.... (context: coming from a dad; this is the dream for a father, winning something like this and having your baby there to be in the moment and enjoy it with you.... fucking wild)
Formal so quiet between matches, like chill I got this, just knows he’s going to fry everyone. Too good
I remember watching this right before I went to work. Had a smile on my face the entire shift. What a time to be alive man.
People aren't fucking around when they say Damon is the GOAT! 💚
He was so smart. If he didn’t wanna die he wouldn’t. He was all about the win though. So he’d make the best play for the team. A few times you’d see guy go on insane kill streaks against top teams. So different
Hitch is next level @27:57, he knew already how well those two brands mix and mesh.
'lets see what wouldve been a better play. actually, i dont know what wouldve been a better play" lmao
"Is that Zinni right there?" sequence at 4:29 had me dying
Man I feel bad for Ant and Illey who never experienced winning Champs on Lan! Hopefully this year boys!
LMFAO the old ladies at 8:00 checked me. That's awesome
Yoooo Ant, do a video on how you switched from halo to COD, a lot of us don’t know, we wanna hear the story. Also like the struggles and how it was at the beginning with empire.

This champs squad wad godlike. Time to get Shotzzy a champs under OpTic!
47:05 the most final boss shit ever
LMFAOO broo I can’t with shotzzy
My mans be lost in the sauce & be coming out with some random shit lol😂😂😂
Lol the chat everytime J's face shows!
Jetpack cod with shotzzy, by the time they find him he up in the clouds.
Ant: Wait am I getting copyrighted for this shit?!?!?
Also Ant: Wait this is just a beat
Shotzzy would've been nasty at Uplink I think, his fucking movement would've been nuts. Would love to see him on a jetpack game in the future
Ant, glad youre intrigued for OG history lets OGooood luck homie
Vauels might be the goat for these stream highlight videos
❤️
Hopefully we see dashy win his first ring and illey and shotzzy actually get to be on stage and lift that champs trophy this year
2 years late but he got his ring
This was the one and only champs I attended as a fan. Such an amazing time
"alright lets go back and see what a better play wouldve been... i dont even know what a better play wouldve been"
Best Vision episode hands down, that outro music.
I was weak when Shotzzy thought Mixwell was Shroud 😭
I actually cried in the beginning of this video. I have a son and that little voice a child has, is the most soothing and cutest thing on this planet earth. You cannot tell me otherwise. Just fucking adorable.
Fuuuuuuuck man I forgot how damn cute that Bella intro was. I'm emotional 1 minute into the video.
ready for pt.2
I never even realized that shit, Apathy had a chance to win 4 champs in a row, that is nutty.
Ap definitely top 5-7 player all time.
This team was the best no one could touch them when they were on the same pace I will never forget that morning
this video is living in my head rent free, vid of the year no bs, much respect to ant
got people telling me to calm down
im fuckin calm
Although I wasn’t watching comp back then man does this give me goosebumps 😅
I miss the dynasty but i’m happy and excited to see you guys represent the greenwall now. Use this as a motivation & get that ring baby. 💚
2 years later, with a lot of ups and downs you fking did it !!! 😭❤
Damon was underrated in that game forsure.
J is a 🐍. All you need to know about that. So glad to see you representing the #Greenwall!
Dang, now I want to see illey and shottzy scrap against scump and formal on infinite warfare in 2022. That would be comedy content
Optic hire this man!
Haha that'd be so sick to see. IW Formal was next level.. and I can't even imagine what shottzy would be like on a jetpack game lol
Almost forgot how skinny formal was! Holy his jawline was looking gooood
Damn Crim with the speeches
I don't think Shottzy understands how good Optic were. They won at least half the events every year
karma was lowkey the mvp this champs legit dominating every map lmao
formal dropped a 1.44 kd all event
bro formal was literally dominating every map he had 1.4 over the whole event. That’s ridiculously insane
@@chromedomo4826 if cod had a finals MVP like NBA does i dont see how you dont give it to karma here edit: didnt mean to take away from Formals performance the entire event, but karma had a higher finals K/D and performed every map when he does all the dirty work that arent supposed to get him a high k/d
shotzzyy wouldve been the best uplink player ever he wouldve been real nasty with a jet pack
Time for the movement king to get his ring this your year shotzzy
dont tell the Canadian to calm down lol... also when they win Matt disappeared into the smoke an also left OpTic wild
Crazy how different formal was back then. My guy became so much more fun
Remember to add the chat sometimes they're hilarious
really hoping esports for all these fps games has a resurgence. as a kid i always wanted to be like these guys. still have hope
We the community NEED to see you on jetpacks CoD no cap
Legend has it scumps headset is still in orbit
Formal is a goat ong, from Halo to COD, pure goat
Can’t wait for Zin to see this lol 4:40
Bros comedy fs 😂
Most toxic laugh I’ve ever heard I love it lmaoooo
i miss this game so much a lot of people hated it but i loved it and uplink was sooo good ..hands down the best game mode they ever made
People say this game was bad but so much more fun to play and watch
Rodger’s editing is great, but something about hitch’s editing just hits different
Hecz at 30:43 is freakin comedy 😂😂😂
Rewatching IW Champs gives me still goosebumps till this day even though i hated that cod with my whole heart
It's hilarious Shotzzy didn't know about Hecz selling Optic lol
Formals tracking was unreal. Formbot 💪
that footage of j. dude betrayed the optic brotherhood. Hecz got the last laugh tho
Crazy that courage was just announcer at the time now he’s popular streamer
love the reactions shotzzy
Karma always looking like he’s coming down from a Molly roll
Then WW2 came out n Optic picked up Methodz n Octane🤦🏽
Damn I never even got to watch this that opening literally made me tear up 🥺
Karma’s prediction though.lmao
nice work shootzy!!!!11!
We need more of these
Only legends will remember how final Damon was during these finals
Bro if advanced warefare 2 comes out shottzy is dominating no cap
To this day I still don’t know what that beat is at the end when they won. It’s so freaking good every time
916frosty - enough
gotta find that beat at the end tho holy
Formal was by far the best player in IW just like Dashy was the best in Bo4
In optic *
@@allahbless2278 ? He was easily the best player in the game, not just on OpTic
@@allahbless2278 there was no one even on the same tier as formal in IW and dashy in bo4 is a debate. But dashy is definitely top 3 in bo4
Simp was better
Appreciate the content king
Was so clear Formy and Karma had enough of Crims shit lol
The greatest COD of all time.
Formal sounds diff 41:08 tf
Watching this back feel bad for my boy he ain’t win his on lan ain’t experience it fully this year he getting his second
Well you did predict it correct 😂🟩
