Lamar was much better of a player and an IGL back when he was still with Seattle. I'm surprised that EGLX Corporate didn't want to keep him. I really miss 2022 Hector needs to be punished for tampering.
I like my OpTic boys but when they make comments about players/teams not caring to win, and then they proceed to lose to those types of teams, it really makes me cringe.
To be fair, Vegas was SHOOTING that series. OpTic barely lost that series, the maps were all close, despite getting outstayed by 50+ kills. They’re playing winning CoD, they were just getting outslayed.
@@alcavila9613yup. This is what I like about the recent developments. That champs Sunday faze match in major 2 was similar in a way where the boys were able to keep it super close while being outplayed like crazy. Good teamwork and right plays for sure.
@DISHYMESSIAH Brother they have said so many times they all hate online cod and I could care less how they do with online obviously I wanna see them do good but the other top 3 even faze have lost to bottom 4 teams and look what we’ve done on lan 3,2,1 like we are doing just fine calm down
One thing is the talent is stacked on top teams. But now there is also a additional gap. Teams have facilities, coaches. Stat coaches, SnD coaches. Best coaches and facilities also at the top teams, which further the gap.
I personally don't like how pretty much every org ever is just trying to focus on getting players that make the flashiest plays. I miss 2022 where it was actually about the synergy between teammates and actually taking the grassroots approach. I personally agree with Parasite saying that the league is a joke. If I recall there was a time when MLB had prize money for every regular season game instead of regular salaries, why don't we do that instead?
@@Hushed_1 Nope I meant the 2022 Seattle Surge, that team and roster was exactly what every team and org should have been doing. You had Lamar getting the ticks and time, Daunte rotating to the next, Makenzie clearing the zones and Amer cutting off reinforcements. Everyone had a distinct role and it wasn't some superteam trying to get the flashiest plays and crazy numbers.
Back in the golden days, people were playing and grinding on pure passion for their craft. Its completely understandable why people now dont have that same passion considering the dumpster sewage that CoD as a game has become. Still, you'd think the competitive spirit wouldn't allow so many of these "pros" to just chalk it without a fight
@Hushed_1 brother Breach beat Ultra online and Guerrillas beat Faze online. Optic, Faze and Ultra never lost to any other team besides Ultra to New York on LAN this season.
Bro, Optic are mentally fragile, still doing the stupid 3-0 celebration against Miami three majors later and getting tight over Johnny doing an L dance on their noggin first game back from Major 3. Wild 😭
Love how Kenny says that but they did lose to vegas. Granted I think vegas over performed significantly. Optic got outstayed by almost 70 kills and still nearly won. I’d be shocked if they shoot that well again
that is true tbh with your title. teams can kick members and look for more online members to try out for MLG. im sure a lot of players would go thew it more then most bottom tier cdl teams. get 1 new member, trade 1 and keep 2 top teams if they are failing. if the teams don't acknowledge winning why would the rest of us acknowledge them? they would have to pay for presence at that point and i would be the one yelling like on SpongeBob to squid ward. BOO YOU STINK! lol
Cod has always been top heavy lol people only cry about it cuz it’s Simp and Abezy. If those 2 were in Optic I bet you nobody would be bored of the league. In professional sports only baseball is like a new winner every year but even in F1 (I don’t watch it) isn’t it always Max Verstappen ? The format does suck but we get more LAN’s than other esports. I hope we get even more next year.
This is no different to how it used to be from AW onwards, before that nobody stacked the deck with the best players until complexity in the second half of bo2 and then ghosts where they were literally the only team with 3 or More top players on one team but even optic dynasty played against that faze superteam and denial, TK, LG, splice but apart from 2-3 teams per season they was all kinda trash same as it is now
thats kinda true but they talking about more than skill, theyre saying not only are the bottom teams trash af now but theyre also not trying to get better, being complacent with a paycheck when it wasnt like that at all back then, the bad players had to grind and try to get better to actually make money
@@larrystfu To some degree I’d agree that teams are more complacent but I think that’s due to contracts and rosters being locked in all year unless you go pick up a challengers player. The 2nd and 4th best team combined halfway through AW to try make a optic killer, nearly worked too but these days were stuck with these rosters for at a minimum this year possibly even next before any top player is allowed to join another team no matter how bad they might want to, let’s be honest here hydra should’ve left nysl and joined ultra for envoy by now to at least try and be the top team but they aren’t even allowed to try that stuff nowadays because of contracts locking players to an organisation I do also think parasite is doing the typical old head thing off “my era was better players weren’t soft they tried harder” yet none of these old guys can even be successful in challengers so he’s clearly wrong on that bit.
Imagine your salary was tiered based on your CDL placing and tournament wins where only the Top 4 teams could break a monthly of 10k? for example.. Oh wait I witnessed that being a fan of this mf game since 2010. It's embarrassing to say "I'm a CDL fan" nowadays. No heart, grit anymore. Back in MLG for example I'd blow a lung out screaming at my lil PC because there an absolute war going on regardless of banners, Mind you these absolute wars were for 1k, 2k, IF THAT, because some tourneys were for mere BRAGGING RIGHTS. Nowadays, only the matches where the Top 4 are playing, can even be labeled as "entertaining", if that, because now some matches' viewership numbers, after based on banners and colors, NOT THE GAME. As an OpTic Fan since the 240p and 360p video quality days, I can still watch EVERY TEAM and feel like a damn kid again because its the comp and the game that makes this league. Not the colors, or banners or drama. Bring me back to '13 mf, damn
Bottom teams now are beating Bottom teams then Scump and other former players said it's harder now There were like 14 Tournaments a years back then now it's like 5
Bro OpTic lose once and everyone is tripping like these bottom 8 teams play so different n online cheese n ping cheese is involved LAN is only matches that matter
Can't blame contracts for ruining comp cod it's the pros that aged in the contract era that ruined it they started gate keeping the roster spots look around the league now for example arcitys shouldn't have been able to put together surge look at what he did to abuzah accuracy shouldn't have put together Minnesota he's been carried by pred and sib the last two years and asim got like 2 chances before 04 and Jonny were considered because he grew in the system where people recycle their friends
Ima believer that optic lost to Vegas on purpose to try and kick start the bottom of the league in addition to the publicity with all the videos and buzz about this topic as well
We need to start a petition for those of us who don’t care about the battle pass. Can they make a “don’t show me again” button for it? I bought the game once, not buying all this other stuff to turn around and spend $70 in November for the next game. #dadgamer Lmao
I think back in the day, it only seemed like the other teams were bad because the 2 dynasties were just that good
This
I was listening but looked up immediately when he said oiled up Doug
lol at work
😂
Tactical rabs content plan be like
Monday: Optic
Tuesday: Optic
Wednesday: Optic
Thursday: Random drama
Friday: Optic
Saturday: Optic
Sunday: Optic
Lmfao
Good plan
Don’t be counting his money
Bro’s pocket watching.
Gods Plan 😂
wonder if we’ll ever find out what happened to illey
ROKKR and Vegas should swap places because at least Vegas play like they want it still while Rokkr who knows.
I agree

The mentality should be "any given day." Anyone can beat everyone, and everyone can beat us. That will make you grind harder and get better.

This coming out of a NOOB who just lost to VEGAS and is lucky to be on Optic 🤡🤡🤡
guaranteed contracts ruined competition cod.
I’m calling it now. We’re gonna have a dark horse winner next major. They gonna be motivated.
Your consistency and candor even when there's basically nothing to cover is very impressive
The rate tactical rab posts this dude has become my morning news

Doug quitting cod is a perfect metaphor for these times.
Sound EQ 😂😂
Kenny and Scrap and talking about how trash the league is after losing this weekend to said “trash” teams is beyond cringe 😂
they didn't lose to them on LAN though
@@goldwerewolf8651sooooo you’re just gonna pretend like Vegas aren’t already bad online????? Like what
@Hushed_1 brother Breach beat Ultra online and Guerrillas beat Faze online. Optic, Faze and Ultra never lost to any other team besides Ultra to New York on LAN this season.

Been that way since after the dynasty tbh
Zooma pulling up the average salary has me dying because it is not accurate 😂😂😂😂
Okay but how many times parasite gunna say like
Cant believe my Spurs are getting roasted in TacRab videos now as well let us be lad
I think what validates their point is no current pro is talking back defending the pro community lol
Love how Kenny says that but they did lose to vegas. Granted I think vegas over performed significantly. Optic got outstayed by almost 70 kills and still nearly won. I’d be shocked if they shoot that well again

It is SO much easier to win tournaments now, not even a debate
We know that's false when Scump and others have said comp is harder but go off. 😊
Bottom teams now are beating Bottom teams then
Scump and other former players said it's harder now
There were like 14 Tournaments a years back then now it's like 5
This is true but mainly because there's so few matches played. Literally travel for 1 series and go home. No time to warm up and get hot.
Bro OpTic lose once and everyone is tripping like these bottom 8 teams play so different n online cheese n ping cheese is involved LAN is only matches that matter
I'd play however I had to if I were making 200k plus a year. I hate to say it, but its hard to blame them.
Can't blame contracts for ruining comp cod it's the pros that aged in the contract era that ruined it they started gate keeping the roster spots look around the league now for example arcitys shouldn't have been able to put together surge look at what he did to abuzah accuracy shouldn't have put together Minnesota he's been carried by pred and sib the last two years and asim got like 2 chances before 04 and Jonny were considered because he grew in the system where people recycle their friends
IMO only way to fix it is too go champs style go like only top 10 get to go to the major and only top 8 go to champs
i truly believe that Doug would have an impact in the league. Give the man one more shot.
Have you seen him stream?? man’s got no thumbs haha
this gotta be the 5th time i seen this video lmao. love ya Rab daddy ❤
Hey bae tacticalrab uploaded
I'll support huke where ever he goes.
Soft as Charmin...
Optic not been caring to win the past 3 years then win one major and then start talking crazy, it’s madness
Omg
🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶
Ima believer that optic lost to Vegas on purpose to try and kick start the bottom of the league in addition to the publicity with all the videos and buzz about this topic as well
Optic is just a bunch of teenage girls
Honestly these dudes are weak lol
Pros don’t play the game more than they need to because it sucks. The game sucked at fuckin launch and still fuckin sucks

Lmao
My apologies @tacticalrab, you being the blessing you are with the cod seen, maybe somebody will see this and agree lol
