I'm kind of leaning towards the fact that it's like a ticking time bomb.
And he's going to go at some point.
So I'm trying to...
Let's go, Bruce.
Oh, what's up, Ginny?
That's not a clip?
No, no.
He's...
He's like, wait, that's not a clip.
He didn't know that you were live.
Ladies and gentlemen, I want to welcome you to Optic Podcast episode 263.
This episode is brought to you by Cash App and Butcher Box.
I'll tell you a little bit more about them later on the podcast.
Happy birthday to me, says the first line of this thing.
Thank you guys for watching me and happy birthday.
Appreciate that.
I did.
Thank you.
We texted you.
Thank you.
In the, actually, it's a pretty turd group chat.
I don't want to flex, but I'm not going to say the name of the group chat.
You know the name.
Yes, undisputed.
Undisputed.
It's the undisputed.
A bunch of potheads in that chat, I bet.
Yeah, 46 years old.
I'll dee sound.
I don't feel it.
That's the scariest thing about being 46 years old is that I don't.
feel it and I don't feel as though like I have less life now to look forward to or like I just I still feel like I'm I'm like my brain is like kind of stuck in in in very immature status the Jordan era I feel like I like my humor hasn't changed my I haven't learned anything yeah my how old are you 46 you look 36 thank you I feel 26 it's the hair very your hair is you got some good ass genetics you're
Thank you, dude.
Yeah, look, yeah.
What are you gonna do?
With the jean.
You've never been a turkey?
I'm letting my hair grow in the back so I can look like you, Matt.
What?
I need a haircut pad.
Dude, no, it's like, don't do it.
We're all doing this.
That's your look though.
Yeah, that is your, that's your, like, viby look.
Yeah.
Like, if you cut it, I don't give a fuck.
Yeah, if you cut it, I'd be like,
holy shit, he's a grinder.
If you cut it, I'll be like, he's fucking on demon time, bro.
Don't talk for six months.
Have you ever had a different haircut than that one?
Yeah.
That's why I wear a hat all the time now because when I was in high school,
and I was waking up an hour before I had to go to school,
I would spend time in my hair because all my boys did it
and fucking you show up and your shit isn't look good.
It's like, you gave up, huh?
Yeah.
You start sweating during the day.
Your shit starts getting fucked up.
You're like, nah, this is such a bad day.
So yeah, now I just wear a hat, so I'm going to worry about it.
I hear that, man, I hear that.
I mean, where are we at with rank play?
Have you been playing it?
Nonstop?
I played,
I got plays gold three.
That's my fucking,
what's that?
That's not bad.
Just laughing at something
Are you that sounds like that.
I'm talking about a clip yesterday.
Okay,
okay.
That's what I'm gonna fucking say.
That's it.
Is it right hype?
Pretty fun,
but there was a lot of hackers.
Is there hackers?
Yes, bro.
No,
they said that there weren't going to be any hackers,
though.
They lied again.
With ease.
Yeah,
we fell for it again.
Oh,
yes.
Okay.
I mean,
I don't know what that is.
That's like deep.
I don't know what that is,
Riley.
I don't even know why you just found.
Is that even high school?
Or is that just like,
that was like a year and a half later?
Dude, that shit was that?
What team was that?
SK?
TK?
TK.
TK.
All day.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Yeah, like I played for a little bit and then I had to go to Chicago.
I didn't,
I got to go to Chicago spent some times with them.
All my friends came down for the major and then I didn't get a chance to hang out with them.
So I was like, man, I'd just go over there, watch the Super Bowl.
And they, they had a little bun cake for me, said,
happy birthday and then instead of a candle they put a joint
it was pretty cool.
Oh, you guys know me.
All my life.
Did you guys watch the Super Bowl at all?
That was boring as fuck this year.
I did.
That was ass.
The halftime show was ass respectfully.
I didn't mind the halftime show.
Wait, you're telling me, Bruce, you're sitting there trying to tell me that all them
dancers, that none of that was entertaining to you?
Bro, I could barely see you because, like, I was watching it with my friends from high
school.
Uh-huh.
And then we were, I was like, I can't understand shit.
And I can barely see anything because my vision's also getting worse.
You know what I mean?
So I'm like, I'm at the bar, whatever the sports bar.
I'm like, hey, I'm like, I can't hear or she.
So it's got to be ass.
And the game was ass too.
So I'm like, the game was ass.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That was ass.
The amount of people.
Like, that's all I kept hearing.
Yeah.
Not to get political by any means.
You guys know that I'm about unity and not the size divisiveness.
But the amount of people that were fucking tripping out about in all Spanish.
Like, listen, you didn't understand.
I didn't even understand.
He le superbo of the Wii
All of
all, first of all,
congrats to Bad Bunny.
Congrats to all of
Latin Americans
and Hispanic
all over the world.
That was pretty cool.
All of it,
Lady Gaga came out.
All in all.
All in all,
is very obvious.
The NFL is obviously
trying to fight for
some of the
Spanish-speaking audience.
Obviously the World Cup
and anything football
related gets billions of views
as opposed to, you know.
So obviously,
they're going to try to tap into that market
that's why they're going to England
that's why they're having games in Mexico
so this is more of a little bit of that
I didn't watch the half time
I'm not a fan of his music
personally just turned it off
and I went outside of smoked a blind
woman boys okay
a big ass man yeah I saw a lot of people
bitching about it yeah it was pretty controversial
I don't know why dude it's like
I mean
I don't get it
I mean who else could you get
I mean, a lot of people.
Little Wayne.
Drake come through.
I wonder why Drake doesn't do him.
He's just him.
But Drake is not American.
He's also Canadian.
I mean, he's American because he lives in North America.
But they wanted a United, whatever, dude.
How many people, it doesn't matter.
Just moving on, I thought it was fucking pretty cool.
The commercials, I like the one, the, I was a little bit confused and maybe you guys can,
the Dunkin' Donuts one where they had like, it was like a high school setting and it was all the actors.
if they were in high school together at the same time.
And it was Ben Affleck.
Who was it, Riley?
Did you see it?
I didn't see it.
I stopped paying attention to them.
I gave it like a chance for like the first like, probably 12 commercials.
Yeah.
And I was like, this is just not the same anymore.
Yeah.
I actually just stopped paying attention.
That one was really good.
The Dunkin' Donuts one was really good.
But I think it was AI.
I mean, obviously it was AI because they were all like younger looking.
Is it?
Yeah.
So before the movie, a much better version of Goodwill Hunting was made.
Oh, that's a God movie too.
Yeah.
Goodwill Dunking.
George Constanza, you got Urkel, you got Joey.
Anyway, like, obviously, like, this is a little bit AI-ish.
Is it though?
Yeah, look, look.
You think fucking Ben Affleck is this young?
I think he could, they could make him look like that.
You think Joey and Costanza?
I don't think Joe Constanza is like.
Jennifer Ashton still looks the same, so they didn't need to help her at all.
But, like, Matt Damon and this guy were just, look at this.
You know, he doesn't look that young.
Erkle doesn't look this young.
Herdol, holy shut.
There she is, Jennifer Ernestine.
And.
Brady.
He looks a sonny.
Lookie.
Well, dude, it's enhanced.
It's enhanced.
That was kind of cool, I guess.
Yeah, it was funny.
I mean, if you heard the thing, it was funny.
But nonetheless, I was, uh, I was like watching it.
I saw Ben Affleck and Matt Damon on, on Joe Rogan and talking about AI and how, like,
some people are taking certain actors are taking precautions to not have their likeness and all this stuff.
So, I don't know.
I thought, all, I thought, all,
All in all, it was, it was an all right Super Bowl.
The game was ass for real.
Like, I wish it would have been the Bears against anybody else.
But whatever, man, it is what it is.
Yo, you and your boy stopped by the garage mahal?
Yeah, my boy is glazing garage mahal.
He was like, bro, no way.
And I was like, yeah, we used to come here, like pretty often,
especially after league matches, like,
especially during the Cold War and a little bit of Vanguard during that year.
But he was like, bro, what?
This place is sick.
And then, like, you know what I mean?
There's other stuff that will just, you know,
it's like only if you're at the garage mahal,
you know if you you know you know type of thing but it was far well it's evolved and it's like a little
bit more more zen like up there it's like it's like 3 p.m it's therapeutic yeah like just in the
afternoon yeah you know you know you leave before the sun goes down because it's not the same
when you're there yeah exactly yeah yeah but at night though it feels like I could see why it's it's
very very quiet if you're playing poker oh we're about to we're about to we're about to we're about
to start playing poker so 20 20 people tournaments uh places is lit though yeah so again you know to
Wrap up the Super Bowl.
I think a lot of people
expected the Broncos to be there
but Bone Nix got injured.
So it was like, you know?
So it was like kind of like chalk at that point.
It was supposed to be Hawks,
Broncos?
Yeah.
Bro, like literally they won the game
and like 30 minutes later
they announced he broke his foot.
In the last play of the game
when they played the Bills,
the Broncos, as I was actually watching them
with my dad's a Bills fan.
Like the last play he like
he fucked up his ankle or some shot.
Literally the last play.
So it was like after they already won the game.
Oh, so it's like some Dero shit.
I got one guy?
Just he was like,
you're like,
you're like,
still.
Yeah.
I got one guy on fucking Instagram
I said 80%
of the money
is going towards
the Seahawks.
So you know
where I'm betting.
Las Vegas ain't
gonna let 80%
of the beds go their way.
So I'm like,
all right,
I'm with the Patriots too.
Whant,
way.
Damn.
Drake May.
I thought,
honestly,
I predicted Drake May
to make a deep.
He's looking
kind of breaking,
dude.
But in the final.
But like,
to be fair,
like,
they were a blitzing his shit,
bro.
Like,
they didn't let that guy
breathe in that game.
But like,
he got to,
they're thinking too like but he knows Tom Brady's
watching he knows that he's like now he's like
replacing him but I like his quality
so he's like I mean it's just another it's just another misplay
that
he was looking at watcher for sure
I feel like Brady's looking at dirty dirty
hater but bro you got seven
my homes last year too yeah but you got seven rings
but you can hate on my homes because he's getting
somewhat close not really somewhat
but Drake maybe you let him have one
let him think that they have a new
yeah so we have a new segment
every single week we're going to go to Zini
for a Huntsman pre-check to see where we're at.
Obviously, there's a lot of transactions going on.
We're going to cut to him now, and we'll be right back.
Hey, guys, reporting live from New Jersey.
Huntsman situation...
Tell us, man.
Just go out and say it.
Yeah, so obviously, you know, Neum's gone,
so trying to replace him,
but as well as figuring out the Kip's situation, right?
So Kipps has interest from another team
in him being on the sub-spot,
and I guess the decision now that I'm facing is do I want to keep Kips around for as long as possible
and kind of delay the inevitable and at the same time I'm kind of leaning towards the fact that it's like a ticking time bomb
and he's going to go at some point so I'm trying to let's go Bruce
what's up dude he's not a clip no no he's he's like he's like wait that's not a clip
He didn't know that you were live.
We're going to react to you.
So it's a man, Kips has been playing, ring.
No, so this is a new segment that we're adding to the podcast, which is the Huntsman
update, which he was in the middle of saying he.
I kind of prefer that already, too.
Well, Kips is a playing.
Wait, that's not a clip.
All right.
All right, Riley, if you've ever seen one?
All right.
So continue.
That was actually hilarious.
Yeah, so I guess the way I view the KIP situation right now, I'm kind of rushing the
pro team that has interest in them because I need to fit.
figure out the huntsman and I'm going to give him like kind of one more day to really give me a
definite answer because as much as I'd like to keep him, I feel like if we do, it's like a ticking
time bomb where I'd rather feel the best possible roster right now than have a situation where
we play with Kipps for three more weeks and then he goes and it just feels like some wasted
practice and wasted time and wasted chemistry. So just trying to figure out the Kip's situation.
Rispy and Renegade are of course sticking around. We're going to move Renegade to the Flex as
right now. So I talk to John, you know, he's getting more comfortable with the AR. He used it a lot
and overload at the event. So we're probably going to be moving Renegade to Flex, Risk People Remain
SMG. And the two guys I'm looking at right now are Dimensions on AR and then Johnny on SMG.
And I know we've kind of spoken about former pros being on the Huntsman before. And I guess the way
I view it personally is I think there's a difference in like a solidified tenured pro who's won
championships and has been around for a while. And then someone like Johnny who's received,
who's been in the league, but for very short stints on sort of not great rosters. And he's still
young at 22. So I think that's kind of where I stand right now is, I'm not like anti for my
former pro, but just to be blunt, right? Like players like fellow R Cities gunless. Like
these are like proven champion caliber players, whereas I still think there are like former pros
that are still underdeveloped and like haven't really been given the best chance.
So that's kind of why I'm okay with Johnny right now.
And also like there's not.
What about Cal?
Listen, I've watched a lot of Cal's vaub, Matt.
Oh, he'd fucking run.
Yeah.
This guy ain't seen?
Yeah.
I watched a lot of his Vod.
I spoke to Major Maniac about.
him trust me after your text and then i saw him and tommy's tryouts he was fucking going crazy
so in your opinion there's no question he should we should i'm just not someone this dimensions
guy i think he's all right what about uh hey zini what happened johnny and john what happened
with uh renigate and uh and and rispy they didn't they got offers but they declined can you
can you fill us in on that yeah so actually yeah i mean i have no problem talking about the c9
stuff right now so c9 offered renegating kipp's spots um
I was able to sort of negotiate a deal that was very player-friendly because I think the biggest issue that I felt weird about is if Kipps Renegade signs the C-9 for 2000 a month.
And then let's say Boston wants to pay Kips, Renegade $130,000 a year.
I would find it unacceptable to not let that happen given the drastic difference.
So C9 did let us add mechanisms in the contract to where we could have pulled them back to the huntsman or offloaded them to a different pro team as long as it was during certain windows.
So it couldn't be like a day before roster lock or it couldn't be right when they're about to leave for a major.
So it was a very player-friendly deal if they wanted to take that route, but they ultimately decided against it.
Kipps is trying to figure something out with a different team.
and the renegade wants to stick around with us and continue developing.
My stance was like that type of move only makes sense if you truthfully believe in the roster.
And, you know, that team's going to be fighting an uphill battle.
So that's kind of where that died.
And now we're just sort of rebuilding Huntsman, assuming Kipps is no longer involved with two new players.
Damn.
Exciting times.
Anything else to report there, Zinnie?
GM.
That's it for me.
Extraordinary.
Wojbomb.
That's it for Wodgob.
That's it for me.
All right.
Thanks.
Thank you, Z.
All right, guys.
Back to you guys.
Later, Zinn.
Appreciate it, man.
See you guys.
Well, there you have it, man.
You were on the news, Matt,
talking about how you want to take the deal to go to...
I'm all over everywhere news right now.
What do you...
What was the cloud nine thing?
Yeah.
Like, what was your take on that?
Like, you don't see any benefit of,
of a Challenger team going up into the major and doing that because obviously
I mean there's probably a pretty good roster you can make on cloud nine if you had to pick
specifically like four Challenger players yes like you could make a good team
problem is they're not offering enough to make good players want to play for them
so now they're settling for players that just want to be able to say I played in the league
yeah yeah and and there's still a chance those kids are good who knows I can't sit here and
say they're going to get shit on they probably will get shit on
But they might learn something along the way. They get 11 matches, which is probably best case scenario
They get to get a look at every single team. You don't have to go a seven. You can at least get you know some reps
Maybe you know half a through the stage. They figure some things out maybe they become a search team dirty nezlo team. I don't know
But I think the first couple of matches are going to be everybody hate watching them
It's going to be bad for their careers
Probably gonna regret joining say I don't know four weeks from now. We'll see
Yeah, it just seems like cloud nine is not really invested. There's probably a lot of stuff internally going on
on business related that I have no idea about that's making them have to only offer that much
money because obviously you don't want to be a prestigious organization like cloud nine you know
you think cloud nine you think shroud you know you think fucking legal legends sneaky jensen like pretty
cool org you think um you know ricky beating us that's like up suit you know and now it's like they're
going to talk down on like there's some sort of shit up and coming org and it's like it's kind of sad to
see to be honest with you um
I do know. I know Jack Etienne. I don't know him well.
But we've exchanged, obviously, pleasantries.
And he's been around long enough. I've been around long enough.
This is the first time I've heard.
I literally am only getting like secondhand, well, actually first hand information from the staff as to how this is going.
And in an open market, do you think that any league player would be getting less than a minimum?
Right?
If you open this up and said, hey, all right, the Cloud 9 spot is up for grabs.
Who's going to pay the players the most is the person who should get into the league, right?
Because that's what, you know, at the end of the day, as we're building this thing and we are in a building face still, believe it or not, like you have to protect the people who are in front of the camera.
Let me ask you this.
And out there's no $25 million buying anymore, right?
No.
So what is the buy-in?
What is the qualification to get out?
I don't know.
That's actually...
I couldn't tell you.
Really?
Like a cheap.
Yeah, I literally don't.
I could not tell you.
So only Cloud 9 knows what that buy-in was?
Uh, if it was a buy-in, like.
They could have said, yeah, you can come.
I don't know.
I don't know the details of that.
Uh, I, I kind of go out of my way to not be too, like, to pry too much in other people's
businesses.
I know, I feel you know.
But at the same time, like, this affects a lot, right?
Because you're, you want a league that's competitive and this is not competitive, right?
Okay.
Let me ask you this.
Yeah.
If you're Cloud 9 and you wanted to leave tomorrow, say they don't want to be in the CDL anymore, okay?
Say you didn't want an object to be in the CL anymore.
Yep.
You can't just say tomorrow, we're done.
Nope, which contract.
Yeah, so how long is that?
Was it a year, two year, five year, 10 year?
Like, how's that work?
They could, like, offload it to someone now, right?
They could, I mean, I don't even know who they took over New York, right?
Yes, because I'm looking at an order.
In my head right now, I'm thinking of Bush.
I'm thinking those guys want to be involved in the CDL some way.
Yeah.
I don't really know the bar stool backing in terms of like the Eastport.
It's like I know they got the funds
But I feel like they would want to, you know, be in there.
They have funds.
Throw money on it for it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know, or even I saw Tom talking about it.
The stallions are in talks about like getting a CDL spot.
I just don't.
I'd be insane.
I don't think Tom's going to feed it.
Tommy does that he's.
But I'm saying, I'm thinking the Bush guys, low-key would be,
why if it's like easy to get into.
Is it actually that easy?
Well, I don't know if it's easy to get into, right?
But like if he can't be in-face.
and also be fielding a challenge with him
because FACE has one, right?
So he can't be both.
They can't be affiliated with both.
That's number one.
Number two, why would anybody want to do that?
You know what I'm saying?
Like I look at myself as a creator.
Like I talk to Nate Chad, you know what I'm saying?
Talk to people who have gone into.
Why are you gonna do that to yourself?
So you understand like the intricacies of having it,
having your life be as dope as Tommy's life is right now.
And then getting a head head like this.
Look, Barstool does have money, right?
It's projected to generate 200.
A lot of cash.
$253 million in 2025,
driven by diversified revenue streams.
The way that...
They just sent five to Proluse.
Just eat it.
Imagine.
He ain't God's quarterback.
No, but it is a...
It is one of those, like, insane things to just, like,
because they do have money,
but that doesn't mean that they're going to invest money
into e-sports if there's no fucking revenue, right?
So what Jerry and the guys are doing is important and it's dope and it's cool.
But once you get into...
Was that?
Now he was saying something.
I was telling him,
it's not finish.
No,
you're finished.
I was just saying,
what's that next bullet point?
It's best of threes.
Then he said,
I can't see.
And now it's a bit concerning
because after the cloud nine thing.
It says,
EWC,
black up,
seven,
I didn't see.
I was like,
Best of threes.
That got,
it's announced that it's best of threes.
And you can finish your thought
that I didn't mean interrupted you.
No,
no, no,
I don't even know where I was.
I got taken back that he couldn't see that.
Can you read that?
Well,
I did,
I was going just like,
He just didn't see what line you were on
And I was confused too
And it was at the end
So I thought it was his own bullet point
My eyesight's horrible
You're on your way
My eyesight is very bad
Just get contact
I'm cool
You're in a screen
Just let you know
As long as you're like
I'm gonna be blind
What's happening
It's deteriorating
Yes
To answer your question
Yes
Metabolism
Completely slows down
Hopefully Merk just gets better
What just happens here?
What just happened here?
Yeah, that's good
So I guess to wrap up the
The C-9 stuff like man
It's a little bit of a shame
Right? Because you expect
You know somebody is storied as cloud nine
To come in and cloud nine
What are we reading here?
This is the this is the proposed team right now
I don't think they should squad wipe also
By the way
I don't think Mac
Yeah, I think Mac is severely underrated
I think Mac is actually
I swear to God
If you ask you today
who's the most underrated player in the league, I would easily say MacMelt
because everybody that's like, obviously is probably rated.
The Huntsman got to hit him up?
Because I'll give up the whole old pro thing.
Mac is, bro.
He's a nice.
He plays a good guy player, bro.
He's a great,
he does everything right.
I fuck with Mac.
Yeah.
He's good.
He deserves to be honest.
I just don't think he, like, speaks up for himself as much as like,
he'll just like, let this shit happen.
Yeah, he won't stream.
Like, unless you really know or watch, then he's like, yeah, last year.
I was like, I just got dropped.
I'm like, I don't know.
I don't know.
Put up.
Right.
Riches is vape.
I don't know.
I'm better for challengers, I guess.
Just with every challengers come, everybody's like,
as long as I'm playing, right?
Yeah.
Somebody who loves the game.
Like, goddamn.
He deserves his flowers.
EWC.
Black Ops' tournaments.
Wait,
EWC Blackups 7 tournaments
format announced best of threes.
Like,
so August 5th through August 9th is best of three,
top four per group qualified of four playoffs.
Oh no.
Wait, that's fire.
Wait, I actually like that.
Best of three is to get rid of the, you know.
Let's weed them out.
But the single olymp is best of us.
That made him out real quick.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The single alum is best of seven.
Or have a protein choke badly.
Single L.M.
Best of seven is good.
Because we were talking about that last year.
Whenever we were at EWC, because like I remember after we won, we had dinner with the prince or like one of the princes.
And he was like, it sounds insane, but it was.
Faceaw?
We were like, yoke, is it possible to double M?
But they were like not because they wanted to be like a unique tournament to them.
Like kind of like soccer is in the World Cup.
You lose once in the bracket.
You're out.
So I could see that part of, you know, they want that, uh, I guess to be a part of like their stamp on the tournament.
but best of seven single limb is cash if you're going to make that because then at that point we lose if i lost the best of seven you lost four maps yeah even though it only is one more it does feel it's better closure for sure and grants is yeah and the best of seven feel for some reason mess of seven feels a lot longer than a mess of five it is yeah for whatever reason august fifth through august ninth ladies and gentlemen ewc so it's best of three only though for the groups yeah it's 16th night night's
groups how does that work i kind of like that though is it what hardpoint search control or uh overload
yeah wait how does that work it goes hard point wait s and d has to be the s and d map that's what i thought
i thought that's weird it's weird yeah i mean it would have to be yo that is weird actually now they
do you you you it would have to go hard point overload and then s and d right or two sndd's
so hps hard point hard point hard point hard point hard point i mean that would be kind of gangster
get down with that hard point search hard point yeah yeah it looks like an extra day
wait august 5 6 6 6 oh yeah you're right oh yeah he's right oh my god um this is weird
better pace yourself i mean i'm a veteran now it's a better pace yourself my days god don't blow
you load you're so lucky you live in this day and age what's just get champs and you should
think this is like random other champs the cherry that's like it's like you have like
Oh, cool.
You have a...
Oh, we won that too?
Oh, okay.
That's a...
Wait, white, that's so fire.
Sweet.
It's so far.
You have a cake that's worth
one point five mil, right?
And then you get a cherry on top of that
that's also worth like 1.5.
So you get a cherry-sized cake
to end your season.
This could be yours, too.
I'm so full.
I'm beautiful.
I'm not enough.
Okay, one more.
If I see, if Mason wants another,
I'm looking.
You can have my slice.
You can have my slice.
I do
I do hope that we get some clarity
on the cloud nine stuff man
because again this is like again
like this wouldn't happen
if it was an open system and hopefully
it's like real bad for them right right
you think they care
like I don't know them at all
and like I said I don't know the Jacka at all
yeah whatever but do you think that they give a fuck
about what's being said about them
of course of course I think so of course
I think they feel some type of way because they probably came into the league
because they just got I think what
they just bought New York they just won champs
did they buy New York though like that nobody knows
That's what I'm saying.
Like, did they get, the New York say, you know what?
Just take over this.
Yeah, they're like, we're done with this.
And pay the players the same way we were paying them.
And then they were not doing that.
And then they also like, hydro left.
Yeah.
I heard they were.
We're the player protections in that very specific case, right?
Like, if I'm a pro player and I'm, I'm looking at my situation and thinking,
like, every other team is playing, like, paying minimum this.
How come this one team gets to do whatever the fuck they want?
Like, there's not.
And then I understand the whole, like, they can get skin revenue, but like, who, like, where's your fandom?
Like, who's going to buy this, right?
Like, who's promoting this?
Like, these new players, these new challenger players, like, they don't have big social media accounts to where they would.
Yeah.
I don't, I just, like, like, looking out for the players in this, in this particular case, like, it, I don't know, man.
Like, it's, it sucks, dude, because you want to go, you can't, what's the incentive to go to the cloud, to cloud.
Let's the incentive to go to the league now
When you as a challenger
Are getting paid more as a challenger
That you would get paid
Well in our case, obviously with Huntsman
You know
You know what I'm saying?
Like Renegade
If Renegade went he would have to take like
A fucking big pay cut to go play pro
And it's backwards right
It has weird
And it would not be backwards
Yeah
That guy
I don't know
That's Hyde
That's the guy Doug was yelling at that one turn
Yeah it was
Now you're gonna be playing against him
What
I'm just gonna put Doug in my client head
He's gonna be hate watching the fuck out of that
He's gonna be like, I don't know what Hyde and Chow there?
Because he's hilarious
Wait, he hates who, hide? Yeah, yeah, that was a
Well, actually I don't know for sure but
I didn't, we were watching.
We're convinced he is.
If I was a gun to my head and I had to get the right answer
If does Doug hate hide or not, I'd definitely say yes.
I think Doug will be watching right.
And you know what Doug? I will too.
Yeah, don't worry, I will too.
Ah, he needed Doug there.
Ah, yo, he should have the bomb down.
Doug would have told him to plant that bomb.
Get the bomb down.
down, Hyde.
All right, guys.
I've never had to do it this way, but who has the OG?
Guilty.
And who is the cookie?
No, that's the world.
Planet Earth.
All right, and who is the sweets guy?
Oh.
All right, and this one just says 67.
Y'all gotta leave.
Please get out.
The boys did indeed leave, but not.
without saving 10% off by adding the restaurant's offer to their custom cash app cards in the app before paying.
That's money.
That's cash app.

So is a hacking situation just as, are you playing on console or a PC?
I play them both.
both.
Damn, he's like that.
Today's my, today's gonna be my first day.
Not play.
I can't wait.
You're the same rank,
I'm both.
The same account, yeah.
I just play the tournament on console
and then play ranked on PC.
Yeah,
I'm grinding tonight.
Today's gonna be my first night.
Bro,
because on console,
people are just using Kronis and fucking AI.
What about Vibing players off the right?
Get to like Krim so we can play tomorrow.
Oh yeah, you can't do,
uh,
you can only do OQ before Krem, right?
No, you can do a queue,
I'm saying like the rank that.
I'm like,
I'm not do O Q, sorry.
You could back if you like you actually try hard like a little bit then at least you'll get like the I think you're I think the pros accounts are why you listen to no CAF I think the pros accounts plus 500 because like I played with Colt attach and Kismet for our placement matches the very like when it first dropped we're all we're all we're all we're all we're all we're all we're all we're all we're all we're all we're all we're all we're all we're all yeah but like kids was getting kids got ranked like diamond three and Colke got ranked like Diamond one
and that's like a pretty big
that's like two hours of time difference
I played with study
granted he was he was playing good
but like I was having the most hill time
playing my role getting overloads
like I wasn't getting shit on
he got placed diamond three
I got placed diamond one
I'm like what the fuck
but I got to crim one
like this
but I didn't I didn't understand it
but once I got the crim one
I started getting 40s I'm like bro
I don't got time for this shit
that's when I started in my head
I'm like I 10
game win streak.
Yeah.
That's not happening.
I guess my theory is because the top 250 leaderboard has pictures of the pro
players and those accounts are already white listed for that thing, they want to get that
fucking pushed out and they want to show you like, look at this shit, you know?
So they're going to give them hell of points, you know what I'm saying?
That's the only reason I'm not 250, by the way.
My thing is this.
My thing is.
Yeah, exactly.
They're white listed.
So my thing is this, right?
Like if you're looking at this and you see Abe.
Right.
Right.
You see Abe as a pro player, right?
Colts just grinding.
cold
this guy's skill
do you think skill looks at this
and he's like yeah I could go pro look
I'm doing better
if it is his true skill
honestly I want to see that for God
I really do want to see that
like some Valik type shit
where the fucking
there's just a rank demon
and then we just like
we don't have to worry about
if he's hacking
and he's actually wrong
but that's okay that's the thing
the cow kid
I played with him a couple days
I was playing with ghosty
some trolly ass fucking duo
yeah I was playing with him
and we played with that cow kid
and I was like yo this kid
I was like, is this kid cheating chat?
And they were like, no, he plays college cod.
I was like, he's pretty good.
I texted him immediately.
I was like, this guy might be the guy wouldn't eat.
Like, he was that good.
Like, just spots fire.
I test of two like kill cams.
I was like, what the fuck?
Should be another way to like, you know what I guess we're getting dimensions.
I mean, I don't know.
I think Cal's gross.
I think his clan tag saying 50 is super hard.
I think that's hard.
If he drops a 50 bomb, everybody's game, 50, Cal.
He made, he made, he made, there was like three pros in their team.
He made them forfeit.
He was like 38 and six.
I'm scared me. How old this kid?
Why did you come from?
Why did you?
He just turned 18.
Just turned 18.
So he wasn't even trying before.
He was like,
I could even compete.
I've also been playing with Rancor and Dante.
I've just been playing with all your ops.
No, I'm thinking about that,
yeah, because they play with three.
Because they can't play with me.
I'm just going to break and they're like,
let's just go to four more.
No, but you know Matt's verbal in that, right?
Like, he's dropping a little bit of,
oh, you know, yeah, you're really good.
You just got to do this and it's the wrong thing.
Yeah, yeah, you're really good.
You got really good timing.
I'm planning seats.
Yeah, you got really good timing, bro.
It's kind of an unreplicated performance.
You should not change your gameplay at all.
You know, that's a one and done, right?
Yeah, you guys know what you guys did?
That was, that was a once-in-a-like event I've ever seen.
You were fine.
I played with it.
I forgot who I was playing with it.
They were T-250.
Literally the first game we loaded up, lurks, Abe.
It was just a cult-had-bid.
I'm like, you know you're playing demons, dude.
I played the full Miami-Heretics roster.
They were, they had just started a slice of a match.
And they were all for, I'm playing with Nate.
And Nate ripped him, though.
I'm playing with Nate.
But Nate had an insane clip.
Am I driven?
That was insane.
Wait, and he was from Brogiel?
I was ripping him?
Yeah, which was?
He really got killed him, but it was weirdly turt.
And they got so much dopey in the clip.
He's watching the best play with the case.
I was like, okay, what did he get like a Nate stick or something?
He killed the second.
I was like, the fuck?
You know, super types in chat like, you're nasty.
And then he's like, who's he talking to?
He was like, me or you?
And it's like, it's got to be you.
You're the best playing.
And then he was like,
I can't wait to see that
I can't wait to see that
I booked out my whole algorithm
bro
now I get an L-SR
because I'm hard stuck
me too
they actually party blacklisted you
wait can I get criminal
this is it
yeah look at this
weirdly turn clip
watch the second kill
watch the second kill
watch the second kill
watch this watch this
watch this watch this
I was like the hell
I swear
wait till super types of chat
what I was like
no one's talking about that
look you see look
That shit looked like he was hacking for a second.
That was insane.
Go back to that clip.
Go back to second.
Look at the third kill.
He gets like the collat, whatever, but the third kill is, go back.
Go back.
He's shut on the guy, he does a full circle.
He jumps out of broken and just randomly just locks on this guy.
Look at this.
What the fuck?
What the fuck?
He instantly cracked the smile.
Look at Dave, look at Dave.
Look at Dave.
Super single, yo, you're nasty, fuck, no cap.
Thanks, bro.
He's so dope.
He's got four.
gassing him.
He's got pros gassing him.
He's got to say.
Are they talking to you or me?
He knows that.
He just wants to reassurance.
He wants to reassurance.
He probably wrote down Super
might be a good teammate.
Yeah.
I think too much he's got to be like,
Super is their best player.
Yeah.
He's just returning the favor and shit.
What's going on here?
Oh.
Of course.
Is that the zombie shit?
Tell me that's not the most turn shit you see right there.
Oh my God.
That happened last night.
I was all.
Damn?
Yeah, yeah, this guy's a fucking sniper.
Wait, I didn't even play it last night.
Someone added it.
Wait, you actually have this clip on deck?
No, I swear to God, Vernon, I didn't play it last night.
Someone just edited.
Yo, wait, why is that?
I was gonna say, what are you just like?
No, but no, no, no, no, but I do do that.
I was doing that.
No, I saw that.
There were some good-ass ones I got from it, but.
Dude.
Wait, what's this one?
Is this thing?
Are you just, oh, this is when I got, this is when I got taken.
Wait, are you just shot?
Watch this.
Watch this.
This is your best one.
Watch this.
I get taken hostage.
He starts humming me.
I just ignore it.
Is this a ghosty if I?
Oh my goodness.
This is why you're just shocking your game.
You're just like, fuck it.
We lost the shit.
You know what this reminds me?
You and I played and I was playing the...
I know.
That's what I'm thinking too.
Dude, it's so good.
It's so good.
When I saw it, when I first thought I was die, bro.
Can't lie.
Snipe was so turnt.
Fucking love.
That BAMSyp was so turt.
The what?
The BAMS one when he sniped you.
Oh, I know.
Why did it look like that?
Dude.
That guy's actually disgusting.
Guys, come on.
That was impressive to you guys.
That was okay.
I showed you.
My gold lobby fucking snipes.
I'm gonna give Kyler's from.
What?
Kyler was running me yesterday.
And you know, he didn't even know.
He's playing solo queue ranked off street.
He probably didn't even know he was playing you.
That's what's insane to me about Tyler.
Okay.
He's a hell just solo.
He doesn't.
He don't need to stack with him.
He's just solo.
Solo, no Mike, just fucking banging the hill.
You can't even type to him.
He ought to respond.
Yeah, I'm got it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He's like, you're still?
Kyla, you solo cueing?
I'm like, yeah.
He's in a dirty little grinder bag right now, dude.
Don't mess that fucker right now.
What is this?
Is this the worst ranked hacker of all time, says Riley?
We'll see.
Gigi breaking point.
Killing the game.
Oh, Sam's doing shit like this?
He's going in theater.
Is this game on theater mode?
Mm-hmm.
I never even touched this feature.
So, I don't,
I don't even... Can anybody...
All I know how to do is get to the...
Like, I press up on the skulls and just go to the kills.
I don't know how to do anything else.
It's like...
It first kill of the game.
Legit first kill of the game.
Oh, he's actually in bronze.
Oh, my God, he's actually in bronze.
He guys are moved.
What is this clip, I think?
Yeah, what are we watching?
It's just...
What is this clip, really?
He's actually in bronze, and he's fucking blatantly walling.
Oh.
Yeah, that's pretty cringe.
This guy can keep his hacks for us.
guys awful.
How did Sam even get his hands on this vaude?
Sam's on in bronze?
Wait, can Sam go into his
into his game?
Yeah, yeah.
And he can go in theater and like see all the POVs.
Ah, shit.
My cousin was playing on my account
when the day that we were replacing.
I sniping in S&D and that's why.
That's why goal two.
Anyway, uh,
Overwatch drops too from I don't want to talk about this.
What is this XUC review?
Cills pay $1 million to play Warsome.
What?
He's supposed to get it.
I saw it.
He's supposed to get play for like a few hours here and there and then he didn't do it.
And then they said, fuck it.
We'll give you the whole budget.
A million for 12 hours.
They're like, well, you're supposed to play like once or like a couple of times for two weeks.
But you can do it all in one day if you want.
That goes crazy.
Like what?
A millie?
A mill?
He's almost getting paid a hundred racks an hour.
That's fucking crazy.
It was his biggest condensed sponsorship.
I mean, he's rolling in it.
I mean,
I don't know why we've got to tip it.
I don't even think he cares.
When he's talking shit to people, I love it.
He's like, I have more on a fucking hard drive than you have in your bank account.
Flash drive.
I'm telling you right now.
I'm telling you right now.
This kid makes no money.
Not a single dollar more to me.
$50,000.
And it was like one million flat.
That was the biggest condensed sponsorship I were taking.
That's fucking dope.
Good for him.
I'm surprised.
Bro, they just...
I don't know, bro.
I'm like, you see this, right?
You see them throwing it like that and then you're like...
But we only have four events.
I only have four events and you can't even fix your servers.
And there's hackers again.
Hackers.
Wait, but you told us that there weren't going to be any hackers, no SBM and we're not
having both somehow.
We're not adding any new...
Wait, are we not adding any new maps?
Go to...
Go to Teeps Twitter.
It's actually pretty fine tweet.
The motherfuckers get ricocheted out of the game.
Am I not playing any new maps, by the way?
I'm playing the same game from the start to the end.
I'm playing the Colossus S&E.
Lock in, bro.
At least you've got to learn these spawns to a T.
But the Colossal S&D is going to be a map in July.
Oh, yeah.
Really?
So that means that you should not not know where they're spawning at every single moment.
Really?
So like, there's really not one better S&D than Colossus S&D.
Oh, here we go.
Overload point to push up.
All right, for season two, we're introducing a new suite of ricochet anti-cheet
detection to target elicit devices and accounts that use them to
update and build on anti-sheet systems that are already delivering strong results across all
Call of Duty Blackop 7 and the Call of Duty war zone adding another layer of protective
blah blah rank play demands to trust and competition competition is mental reward skill and teamwork
addressing these devices critical step these season two updates will be focused on making
that's the message they dropped yeah with the fucking shit and this is just a montage from getting hacked on
I think it's just a montage just a montage just getting hacked on I love team uh
jjit uh yeah uh I'm lucky did you job thank you for the 20 gifted brittney
How's it going?
Oh, we got positive.
I'm sorry.
Joe, how's it going?
How's the family, dude?
All good.
All good.
Clint, how's the family doing, buddy?
Still eating that in five guys every day?
It's probably so bad in war zone, too.
Yeah.
I feel like it's way worse in war zone.
I don't know.
Bro, you know what's crazy is.
I don't know why we're surprised.
Like, I'm so not surprised.
I don't even laugh at this shit anymore.
Like, you used to be funny,
but now I'm just looking at it like,
are the reason I'm kind of tight?
Because I've been so bored.
I was playing Marvel rivals and shit.
Like, you know what I was like?
I'm winning for Cod ranked.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
It finally comes down.
I'm like,
damn it,
we're three days in.
That's where you're kind of like,
I'm being ran by hook
and I'm being hacked on the other.
Yeah.
If you're not getting ran,
you're getting hacked.
Listen,
rank play only comes from multiplayer,
which means that you're paying for it, right?
You're buying the game.
You're paying for the game
so that you can play this one very specific service.
Is that just so free to play?
This is,
Orzo is free to play.
Oh.
It's probably so much worse than Warsaw.
Yeah.
So if you're paying for the service,
when you're buying this,
and you're not playing the,
player campaign that means that you're buying this service so that you can play
multiplayer and part of the oh go back go back look at their health bars in this clip
no you went way too far yeah watch the squad get wiped in that clip
yo their health parts fucking all disappeared at like once that was crazy not this
holy shit this next one watch this watch this watch this watch this he's like
bro just delete it down down down oh my god they just got white
they just got wipe watch tea crack a six smile
watch a who he's just gonna smile
yeah
Gigi
I'll get shots

a maid
bro
what the hell
he's so I'll be so bad
just getting kidding
and the guys
doesn't have a name
you see that
it's just a ghost
that guy doesn't have a name
bro
it's just some demon
just some cheating
Dude, just blainely hacking.
Nothing sick.
You gotta be like, there's something mentally wrong with you.
It said the team's probably getting dope so
because like you can still get plus SR probably in Warsline,
you know what I mean?
Yeah.
Like you can get like a little bit if you just get like certain places.
I swear, but I'm not the point out.
I don't even like, I don't even care who's hacking.
I don't even care what their motive.
At this point like it's actually on the game, bro.
Like there's no way we should expect anybody.
Like there's 100% going to be freaks.
Yeah, but what do we do, right?
Do you as a player look at like,
because we're, we are being witnesses to our face?
favorite games slash esport.
Yeah.
Like,
and we're witnessing it just fucking just fucking on a, on a, on a downward trajectory.
Yeah.
On a crash landing.
And what, what can we do?
I just don't get how there's like, I don't understand how there's not a,
whatever they're using AI, whatever the fuck.
How is it not picking up irregular shit that like, bro, you have a list of pro players.
You can go get the day.
How fast did he react to this?
And that, whoever the fuck owns, whatever the Titans, Zim.
They are banking.
Whoever that is that owns that shit.
Oh, they're just rolling in it.
They're rolling in it.
Oh, God.
Whoever owns the Kronis is a billion.
I don't know how the AI hacking works at all,
but I hear the word AI,
and I just assume that ricochet ain't stopping it.
Bro, so this is how it works.
So, and my Elgado was giving me 60 frames,
so I'm like, fuck, I can't play on this play any tournaments.
It's way too hard.
So I downloaded a third party, like, mirroring.
So I would, I click the pro.
I go on my PS5, click Bluetooth.
It connects to my PS5.
I then switch to what H-TMI 1, where my PS5 is,
and I can play on my PS5 with my controller
plugged into the PC, no delay.
Like, it's normal.
On that third-party program,
they're just injecting hacks into it.
It's impossible to figure out.
It's literally impossible.
They don't even have to play on the actual PS5.
They can just play off the screen and see everything.
We're fucked.
There's no way the game's going to detect that.
It's impossible.
We can all buy PS4s and go back on I-N-W.
Oh, please.
Just play that forever.
I don't know.
MWR.
Just play IW-8s.
PC COD is awful, then.
I mean, this shit is fucking crazy.
Yeah, but apparently that shit's on console.
The AI shit's on console, though.
That's bad.
Hacking?
You get a hack on console.
Yeah, that's the whole thing.
Apparently, console kings is infested.
People always find it away, bro.
Cod's just awful, then.
As soon as there's cash involved, bro.
Yeah, oh, yeah.
It doesn't matter.
As soon as any kind of money's involved, it gets weird.
It gets weird.
a dollar two dollar it don't matter
it don't matter it doesn't matter
money's involved it gets very you know what it is
I figured out a shot it's gonna sound so fucked up
we're just gonna have to make like thousands
of new accounts and then they're all gonna have to be hackers
and go until those like the lowest SBM lobbies
and just start fucking shit up bro
still in the way they like get those casuals to stop
buying the air
you see he's on like a third party
we're gonna have to become the one thing we fear the most
oh
you have to fight fire with fire
Oh my God
So what is
Jesus
Imagine looking at your monitor
And that's what it looks like
Basically he can have this on a left monitor
And be playing the game without any
Yeah but look he has cheats on this
No I know but that is the third party software
Oh so on his main monitor
It looks normal
Oh my god
Oh that's disgusting
It's literally the dirtiest shit I've ever seen
Oh that's disgusting
The dirty like where are all these random numbers
And I just know he's like trying to show how easy it is
but I feel like that guy also does just hack.
Yeah, yeah, of course.
He then got off this.
He's like, I was just doing this for the video.
I'm on install all this shit.
I'm not going to stream, though.
I don't really like stream this here.
I'm done for the turning.
I don't need it.
Which one? There's an elite coming up?
And then he's,
I hate when this happens.
Let me fix it real.
I see, we're back to it.
But this is my first time doing it.
Yeah, I haven't met about it.
Yeah.
The major two qualifies begin this weekend.
Dashy, any CDL-related changes coming to the split,
new maps, weapons, GAs, etc.
I heard those new spawns,
but I can't believe when not.
playing anything new, bro. Like a new map,
nothing? Oh, those ones are pretty ass, bro.
I'm playing Colossus Search, though, by Trippin?
Yeah, bro. Do people love this map?
Do you like the map? Do you guys like the map?
No. Does anyone like watching it? I don't, every pro I talk to
hates it. Why is it still in the game?
It actually isn't fun at all. I don't think there should be a map that small, like,
at 434 search, I mean, what could you even do on that map?
Even Colossus HP and Black Card HP? I'm not, I don't know if the fans are sold.
I don't know if the players are, nobody sold, bro.
Actually, those two, you do, I was how much out. I was like, those two games are fun to play.
Those maps are fun to play in ranked play for me
Yeah, but I'm like, it's a bangout
But I'm like, if I was playing the shipper for sure
If you're trying to break P1 against a pro team
Just going through a doorway or going through a window
Yeah, yeah, yeah, bro, it's not even fun, like it's
But there's four ways to enter
There's the back, the front, and then the two sides.
But it all comes down to a narrow hall
To one day.
Yeah, exactly.
Everyone meets right here.
Like you can't like entry anyway.
You have to just run through the doorway.
Like, you don't all get to go through each door at once.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's like all that shit's being watched from a head glitch.
It's so bad.
I don't know.
Then points moved a bit.
Yeah, so the, yeah, I mean, they moved the...
One of those is unstoppable.
The A one's unstoppable now, by the way.
The B one's actually more stoppable.
Wait, why?
The A one's unstoppable for the defense.
Or, like, if you're defending that point.
If you're blue going to red, the red, the red guy can't see you as your cap it.
So, like, it's, like, pushed into the bookshelf almost.
Oh, it's to the right.
It's like, that one.
And the B ones pushed, like, a little towards the door.
So you actually die more at B than you do that.
They want it to be more offense based.
You're just going to go to A every time, I think.
It's actually unstoppable.
Yeah, like B, if they have any kind of time to spawn up, it'll be close sliding in it, like,
but A is just...
A is like, if you're not there actually fighting it, like, they can just surprise the fuck out of you.
The spawns are different, though.
You have to go slide through a door or jump, crouched through the window to get there quick.
I don't know if it was a mistake or not, but all the pros I've been playing with,
they've been, like, bitching about the spawns in this.
I don't know if it's supposed to be like, what you guys are going to be playing soon or if it's like...
I feel like Overlo's not that bad compared to...
bro, I'm playing Colossus and Blackheart HP.
Am I tripping?
Listen, every
There is no way
That's not gross at those
You guys have to be gross at
No, we're good at
We're actually pretty good at both them
To be fair
But like I still don't think it's a good map
And Colossus search
I think that's a fucking
Blondeerick
I think that is a brained map
Every search kid I've talked to
Literally says like you can
You legit can't get info
On any of the three lanes
Like the play just happens
On any of all the three
Yeah
You can't even play smart or anything
Like you're all a stunt check
It doesn't matter
Like they just appear out of nowhere
Yeah
Yeah you're right
You're blindly running up to A bomb
Got to hit wall
bounces and shit just to catch timing there is no thought there is legit zero brain cells required
to play that map I mean off the rip you can't go a bomb because there's no trophy so we should be
fucking the best at it you just hope your teammates not not I think it's opposite a jump snipe
for HB rush around or something yeah I don't know I think uh I don't I don't want to I don't
want to give up on this man like I love I love doing this shit but man she's like we can't
one thing is like fighting to stay afloat and alive and be
enough to keep the interest high in that and all that that that's like one part of the fight but if we're also fighting with a fucking 90 pound backpack which is the game disallowing for for the competitive side of the game to be viable and interesting enough for people to play to the hacking and then three the lack of interest in the maps or wanting to to to change up the things just like well i mean that's the thing right there there's main maps uh hey codleek spin to spence d t save 56 i know you're getting new maps
for Major 2, but is season 2
arriving early enough for any of those to be considered?
Yes, spin a spence.
Season 2 maps will be considered for M2
Map Pool. There's just no world
where Utopia Search is not like a thousand times
better than Colossus Search, for example. I feel that's just
an auto decision. Kind of like last year.
Well, what did you guys veto it? I was fucking with Utopia
when I was playing interredments. We do veto it. I'm not even joking. It's
legit brain damage. I haven't played Utopia
search, but Los Search is pretty fucking bad.
But I think Utopia is like,
I'm not tripping? I saw that. I saw that.
I saw where the bombs are at, I saw how the map plays out.
It actually makes sense.
Like, okay, sure, we don't have to play for a hard point,
but you're telling me Colossus is better,
a map that's literally fucking crooked.
Okay, bro.
If I tilt my monitor to the left,
it actually angles my fucking...
Bro, that shit is crazy.
You know how many times I loaded into that map and I go?
No, literally.
I can't believe we're playing.
Bro, this map would never be a thing five years ago,
even with the same map we have right now.
It's just the pro players that are in the chat
are just, none of them actually speak up.
That's what I think is.
So, like, for them to move the overload spot,
who, like, were their players saying,
or they just did that on their own?
They just did that on their own.
But which is, like,
Kakato, they always do that.
They always just randomly fuck with spas and shit,
but I was just more so saying,
because we have more input on the maps we play
and the meta's we, like, say, you know what I mean?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And it's so incredibly biased.
The people that do type,
there's like two or three people,
it's incredibly biased because their team is just...
What website is this?
So it's just so, I don't know,
I just think it's cringe.
The only thing I hate about this map
is to be, is a full waron,
like legit full warren.
You can go on the outside of the map.
You can go low though.
Yeah.
But I feel like I do agree with that.
Like if you want a head, you have to fucking bounce like a pinball looking shit.
But I mean, as far, I would, yes, much rather play this than Colossus.
Yeah.
I like how there's a mitt to A.
You can go mid to B.
You can go to their, like, mid to their spawn.
There's quick decisions.
Yeah, but you could get info.
You could show that.
You could snipe.
This would be a good sign map.
I feel like bumpers are going to be good.
There's just a thought process.
You can play for map control.
Like, bro.
And the sniping angles aren't as OP is like looking down the street on Colossus.
You know what I'm saying?
Bro, Colossus, you have the entire map.
You could just sit, like, middle doorway, just shoulder, like, fucking two things.
And, wow, they can't be anywhere for sure.
And at the beginning of the game, remember the x-ray shit?
You could see the underground.
We played with this?
We really played this map.
I'm actually convinced we're, bro, what are these decision-making?
The map was crooked and there was x-ray.
I'm fucking playing among us.
I'm on cams.
I can see the guy.
That's super truly.
And then they make the noise as well, too, like a little.
Bell.
Yeah, those scant.
Wait, I think someone's bottom of man.
He's heard a bell go off.
I had that fun.
Yeah.
Adap finds out why he's,
only his hand made it to the Super Bowl ad
after multiple hours on set time.
What are we talking about?
His handmade,
he was in the Super Bowl.
I was in a commercial.
I was chopped 12 hours for plainer spinets.
My name is like, bro.
It's pretty cool as A-Rod, though.
Right?
It's a good look.
Yeah, we're in the Super Commercial.
Niggins saw your hand.
Bro.
I'm sitting there with my family.
Like, I'm on the commercial trust.
And the planners comes up.
We're all watching it.
Oh, that must have been so embarrassing.
Yeah.
I'm like, now, Alex, you're coming up.
Everyone's like, oh, there's a planner.
Alex, Alex.
I'm like, yeah, yeah.
And I'm like, wait.
And I've rewinded it.
And you could see my hand because I have my hands had it.
And they did it.
Like, the frame was like this.
All this thing.
crazy he's on the couch and i was like i was like right here right here like this
yeah oh oh i went home to arizona i was like mom that's fucking crazy yeah i mean that's
Seth did the same thing right for that like he filmed for like four hours and he was in a
a super bowl for maybe like one second two seconds yeah but at least he was on it right like
that's cool yeah then the tadman had a dope-ass commercial uh
Trey Arc devs have office lands question mark what does that mean?
Awesome at Craig Rogers shit.
Ah, uh, do you all like compete in the office?
We will do tournaments and really that. Yeah, I think we have one coming up in the spring.
Oh, I love that there's definitely an alpha. We've got some really great players.
There's like an alpha at this thing like Matt is incredible really.
That's really good. It's always a Matt. There's always a Matt. That's final.
He's pretty great.
Yeah, yeah.
I think has what it takes to crack top 250.
Really?
He's still gas and Matt, by the way.
He doesn't talk about anybody else.
Fix your servers.
Wait, he's saying that Matt TTS can go top 250?
Not him, I don't think.
No, it's not the same guy.
He's talking about a college team.
There is.
The team's here, ladies and gentlemen, bright and early.
All of their controllers.
What's going on?
I like that.
That's good.
That's good.
Do you know, are you in that?
Hell yeah, he's a list.
All right, then we're going to wrap this up.
Well, let's wrap it up.
Let's wrap this up by rating these rank play clips by the Green Walk.
We have Ghost Viper.
Rip it.
Rip it.
The calling card goes hard.
Oh, yeah.
Is that, by the way, is that you and Seth?
Yeah, it is.
Okay.
That's why it goes hard.
And you're the one on the right?
Well, no, it's not really them.
It's us, right?
Or should meet aunt?
Who's the redhead? You are at?
Look, I wear hat that one time, right?
Yeah, that was good.
I didn't even see the clip.
I'm working on fucking loud.
I'm playing card.
Play it again?
Played it one more time.
Yeah, right?
The fuck.
Wait, do we rank it one out of ten?
Yeah, sure.
Five.
Yeah, that's cool.
Okay.
Give it like a four or how many kills did he?
I give them.
I give it a five.
The four piece?
I'll give it a six and a half.
Just needs more wall bouncing in.
Yeah, I'll give you a four.
If the last kill would have been a wall bounce,
which is what I would have done.
It could be more swaggy, but.
All right, baby Joe, let's see what you got, man.
Hold on, right?
This is got to download it again.
This is bullshit.
All right, here we go.
Double points for wearing the skin.
That's a good trough.
Top, yeah?
Top.
Enemy destroyed it, though.
Yeah, what the fuck?
There was it.
Okay, okay.
He's a dirty jumper, eh?
He likes it.
He likes jumping.
He said, I'm in a BT bag.
I'll give it a five.
Five, yeah.
Four, three, four.
We're doing it out of ten.
We're doing another ten.
Oh, I said, that one.
Everyone's going to think you're a dick, Mark.
Yeah, I'm out of five.
What happened to the other five they're going to say?
I'll give it a six and a half.
I'll give him a six.
Yeah.
I'll give him a six.
Dyer.
Oh, soup kitchen.
Sorry, B.
Okay, soup.
Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Don't have the hard point.
Okay, soup.

Got the hard point.
Hard point identified.
Hard point active.
Uh-huh.
I mean, dude, it's just fucking throw a commentary over this, dude.
Okay, Sue.
I give it us.
Yeah, I'll give that eight.
Six.
Six and a half.
He was Uton.
All right, we got Dyer coming up right now.
And then we have Adam.
That's our final.
It's a cool name.
I like it when people use their name as their gamer tags.
Hector.
Ooh, okay.
Sniper?
He's gonna wait.
Oh.
Oh.
What?
He's got a jail of the shit.
Sniper's insane, bro.
Like, I'm sick.
Give like a seven?
I give it a five.
I was dirty.
I'll give that.
I mean, look, if I give that a seven, eight.
If that made it, I'm going to submit my clips next week.
I have nasty ones.
I'll show it to you guys first before you, before I upload it.
I'll give it a seven, eight.
I'll give it a seven,
All right we have two more sorry Adam and Jamaros. So let's let's see let's see what's going on
He hit that no's nice rewind that I want to see the full thing right? Paul me get immersed
Oh okay that was nice. I actually wasn't that bad
That was nice what the get out of it. Oh my god that was so scary
He's even tweaking him out. He saw that no
The fuck. Yo why did the car come over there? Why did the car come over there?
Like, is that weird?
It's a little weird.
Eight.
I'm tweaking it.
Oh, wait.
Yeah, why did the car come from?
The clip that he gave.
That clip was very, very like, like,
that put that in the G.H.
It's like Michael Myers.
Yeah.
I put that clip in the G.
I give that an eight.
It was, uh,
yeah, that was a nice.
That looks like a lot of software.
But if that made it,
my sniper clips.
I look like a lot of, a lot of, I don't know.
Cod is goaded for that.
Is I just said that.
Last one.
He model.
One, one, Jimero, one, two, three, four.
Just to make sure he's not
Oh my god
10
I mean 0 1
Oh my god
I gave that a 1
It's either 1 or 10
Wait, did you hear the ghost
Wait, why it was at the end right
I'm going viral random
Oh my god
Where somebody played it for that like for that
Oh my god
Oh my god
It's just ghosty and viral
It's the way that's how it is
All right, ladies and gentlemen, that is going to do it for this episode of the Optic podcast.
We certainly appreciate everybody stopping by saying hello, leaving a like.
We'll see you guys.
See you later, guys.
