Starting point is 00:01:31 What's that mean? Well, first of all, we're not a lot. including all the original podcasts. We're going to catch up. We are going to pass you guys. How? We're going to start doing two a week. We'll knock out two weeks.
Starting point is 00:01:39 That is the only way. And that means that both of you have to work two times a week and that ain't happening. Oh, never mind. So, this process is bought to you by Factor Rocket Money and IKEA. More about them later on in the podcast. Also make sure to check out the Optic Forever merch drop live now at shop.

Starting point is 00:02:05 No, come on. For what? How many times says have you cried? But you just won't have it? Every single time my dogs pass. Besides dogs. That's guaranteed. What was the last time you cried?
Starting point is 00:02:17 Have you ever? Just a date? Not why. Just a date. Just a day. A day? Like, okay, when you say cry, like what do you? Like a month ago.
Starting point is 00:02:26 I don't even think that I said. You're scrolling TikTok. Yeah, of course. Like I'll get choked up over some of that. I'm a dog. TikTok. Not whoa. Pussy lanimous, of course.
Starting point is 00:02:36 Sorry. Nah, I mean, yeah, dude, I have feelings. I just said I didn't have hater energy. So you have cried from a TikTok. No, I haven't cried from a TikTok. My TikTok is crazy. Oh. Wait, what's that?
Starting point is 00:02:50 LeBron James won his last NBA championship on October 11th. Wait, what? Why would I have cried? Why would I have cried? Because you have hate her energy. I don't hate LeBron. I don't hate LeBron. I saw someone in chat, San Hanks had Hater energy.
Starting point is 00:03:02 on the desk yesterday. You were saying that yesterday. Listen, first of all, yes. You were hating yesterday. You were hating that I use a pistol, like, sorry. When you sniping? Yeah, he was. I watched that active vod just the whole time.
Starting point is 00:03:14 That's warranted, though. Don't grab the sniper rifle if you were not going to use it. How about that? I agree with them. How about that? How about that? I'm a grown-in-old man. I want to pull out the piss.
Starting point is 00:03:25 I want to pull out the pistol. Don't call yourself a sniper, though. Call yourself a pistol here. You can be a grown-eyed man. You can use the pistol, but don't call yourself a sniper. A grown-in'am-a man What happened with Pam yesterday? Actually, I probably shouldn't talk shit.
Starting point is 00:03:35 No, that's not talk shit about Pam. If I'm playing today. He was playing against fucking three world champs. No, I'm not saying he did bad. It was just that one time where his entire teammate was, his entire team was telling him not to peek. Sorry, introductions. Of course, we have a man, swoo-y right now. We have Hitch, we have maniac.
Starting point is 00:03:51 We have me, big optic hacks here. We're waiting for scumper jumper to get here. We had a couple of, it's not his fault this time around. But do you have any day two predictions? Obviously, team formal was day one. Champions. So we got, who we got today?
Starting point is 00:04:05 We got Seth, Zinn, myself, Krim. Hitch is playing. Yeah. So Hitch is the new PAM. Well, they were saying,
Starting point is 00:04:12 actually, he asked who's gonna be that LVP. He plays N-A-3. There is pressure on Hitch today. No, there's no problem. Wait, why? What do you mean? There's pressure on me?
Starting point is 00:04:21 It's fucking. How's our pressure? Skump, Zini, Krim, bows. Can he attach formal? That's the biggest bailout. And then there's Hitch. There should be pressure on everyone else.
Starting point is 00:04:31 Yeah, Not him. Was that the same shit for Pommage yesterday? Of course. Was that the same attitude? I don't think anyone blames Pommage for yesterday.
Starting point is 00:04:41 You think there was pressure on anyone about Pommage? I'll tell you what. The only person that left here devastated yesterday was Pommage. You saw his tweets later? But he does. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:50 Wait, was he going through it? Pull up his tweets later, man. Like he went home and it was still bugging him. Yeah. He said, I'm getting my fucking get back there. He doesn't know he's not playing. He doesn't even know he's not playing it.
Starting point is 00:05:01 It's still on his seat. mine. Wait, go down, go down, go down. He's going to be like, no, you gotta let me get like, wait, I don't got to play. I'm so down, laughing my ass off. No, he's hurt. He's hurt that he's playing it. I'm kind of mad on. Go down, go down, go down, go down, go down, go down, go down. Why don't you play tomorrow?

Yeah. And we love him for. We would love him for it.
Starting point is 00:05:34 My mental is destroyed. My mental is destroyed, he says. Oh, no, man. Head up. You went home with a trophy today. I left that shit. Both said relax. XP doesn't come from winter.
Starting point is 00:05:45 It comes for surviving. No, I mean, Pam shouldn't feel any. No, I said, you're going against, what was it, formal. And it's not even Pam's game. Formal attach. Kenny and Sue. Kenny and Swoot. Like.
Starting point is 00:05:57 And he was using a pistol. Swoot was grinding. And all you've ever done is sniping for it for. I saw. like we know you're not on that. I'm glad he feels bad about it. Damn. No, okay.
Starting point is 00:06:07 Just on some hating sniper. I will say. That's a hating sniper. What do you call me? His nemesis? Yeah, just wants some rival shit. My number one rival.
Starting point is 00:06:16 Relax. They did throw him into Black Ops four though. I'll tell you what. I wouldn't even have played. Not me either. I wouldn't even have to play. I mean, if you're on the spinning wheel. But same thing would have happened to me if I was out there.
Starting point is 00:06:28 Now, if it was Blackop's seven, something that I've been putting hours into. Oh, here we go Mm-hmm What happened? No, no, that I've been good I haven't seen a single one of your highlight reels Damn

Starting point is 00:06:51 Oh, Pam does peel Oh, that right there But this is the same round He blacked out It's the same exact round This was also the one Don't check it, don't check it, don't check it That was his one snipe.
Starting point is 00:07:02 And it got clip? 28 seconds later, let me see. No, let me see the 28 seconds later. Oh, wait, wait. 28 seconds of, Swoty, good job. Are you going to get out of fun? Yeah, what's got money?
Starting point is 00:07:14 You don't die. What are cats in the vent, man? This ain't it, isn't it? This ain't it. You're playing like that. You'll be in challengers forever. Oh. Hey, don't listen to him.
Starting point is 00:07:24 But also, he is the go, so. Yeah, no, it was good. He might know some. He might know some. He don't listen to me in four. Almost Q and A. You don't think you don't think he ends the goat.
Starting point is 00:07:34 But you also are a Ogre 2 hater. Someone above right. No. I'm a, I'm a winner hater. Because it's like,
Starting point is 00:07:44 right, here's the, but imagine if you got a collat right there. Oh my God, I realized a problem in fucking respawn. Where do you think Pam's
Starting point is 00:07:54 stomach is at right now? Oh, in his feet. In his, because it's not even like a, ah. Because it's not even like a, ah, he shot you in the back, or, oh, you lost the gunfight. No, no, no, wait, what?
Starting point is 00:08:06 It was little Bose, Krem and Zen yelling, don't peek, don't peek. Dude, that is the worst type of. Again, he, like, he shouldn't feel bad, but because he feels bad, good, man, feel bad. Because you shouldn't feel bad. But if you feel bad, feel bad, man. If you're going to feel bad, feel bad, man. It's like you, like, no one has a reason to be depressed. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:28 Or have anxiety. Yeah. But if you're depressed or have anxiety, you fuck it. Fuck it. Double it up. Look, it's like when your mom told you. It's like when you were crying that your mom told you, it's like, I'm going to give you something to cry about.
Starting point is 00:08:38 And you're like, no, no, you won't. And then boom, you get ahead and you're like, oh, shit, she did. Ooh. You know what I'm taking notes. Period. I'm taking notes. I could learn a thing or two from you. That's right.
Starting point is 00:08:49 This one is crazy. Yeah, that one's crazy. He just ran past. No, I'm telling you, I'm telling you he just blacked out. Like, this is 2020 knee hair. Okay, I'm going to tell you what happened. Look at, look at it again. And look how the character hides behind the guys.
Starting point is 00:09:01 a gun. Like, he's hitting behind the... I mean, it was like... And if he was looking at the minimap right here, like to see where they're at, which is...
Starting point is 00:09:07 I mean, it is... Yeah, it could be. Maybe. I mean, it wouldn't have happened to me, though. Wait, on his screen... But it happened to Real on tournament play. On his screen, is the, his attach OG with the health bar there?
Starting point is 00:09:20 Yes. Yeah. Okay. No, he's right here to his right. He's like... No, I know, but it's like... I think you have to shoot him first, though, if I remember.
Starting point is 00:09:27 Like, it's... It's obviously an enemy when you can see attach O. there was a gun but on Pan's actual POV it might be yeah it might have been harder to
Starting point is 00:09:36 yeah not only see behind but on broadcast Hitch was hating yeah I wasn't rewind that dude he did say that
Starting point is 00:09:43 I need that for later tonight yeah oh dude he did say that yeah I did say that yeah I did
Starting point is 00:09:47 that's my well okay and all Pam's ever done is call you the middle of night to show support
Starting point is 00:09:52 no the reason I said that is because Pam that's during the race gifted me
Starting point is 00:09:57 of painting of him triple collatting me and I have it hung up on my wall. So that's why I said that. So I can have something else. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:09 That's that's, wait, so you're his rival. Me and Pam? Yeah, me and Pam used to go at it. Nemesis. When he joined Faze, when he rejoined Faze, like we,
Starting point is 00:10:19 do you remember our little like Twitter beefs? Yeah, we used to get into it. Yeah, we used to get into it. Yeah. We used to really get into it. The thing is, I feel like when Pam, the people Pam goes at it with is like, actually his closest people.
Starting point is 00:10:32 Oh, for sure. Yeah. Like, people always see, like, I'll see comments sometimes about, like, maybe if Pam's my vlog and I'm, like, giving him shit or we're talking shit to each other. But it's actually, like, I've probably hung out with Pam. Even though a lot of us don't hang out outside of this, as far as, like, going out or something like that, I might do a dinner. Yeah, why don't we do a dinner?
Starting point is 00:10:52 We could. I don't understand. But, like, I probably hang out with Pam the most out of anyone. It's cool to the Mexico. And we're like, I don't know, we're close. There's a new restaurant. A little restaurant called Oloyo, as soon as the, as soon as Legacy Weeks son, me and the Pine Park boys are going, no, I heard you, man.

Starting point is 00:12:15 He's calling duty. I've seen APG play, like, it's bad. Yeah, it's like, it's like weirdly bad. Yeah, it doesn't translate. It would be like me playing Call Duty. Basically, same kind of game. Wait, no, Halo. Damn it.

Starting point is 00:20:26 And it was the first video of mine. It just like, flip. everything like 2000, 3,000 views, 4,000 views. Then I got one video that got like 40K views. And then I went to like 60K or something like that. And then my videos after that, it was just like a doped up feeling of being like, oh shit, wait. And then like I upload another video and it's like 20K. I'll put another video like 23K, then like 30K, then 35K. There we go. So I mean, that was definitely one of my favorite memories.

Starting point is 00:22:23 and we could cut it. Nope. Nah, I don't actually, you know what it's not going to be like, I don't even think I want to know. It could, Okay, who would get canceled? I don't know if anyone would get canceled.
Starting point is 00:22:38 But like, a murder might get solved. What? Oh, what the fuck? All right. What's in store for the next 20 years of Optic? We've only had the internet, like the web two for like 10 years. So like what's next for Optic? Like, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:22:52 Who the, man? More championships. I like that question. So we got two. We got two nominations. What is the next? Like, what is something that you want to venture into, like, something that you haven't done before? Or is it going to be just the same stuff for the next 20 years?
Starting point is 00:23:08 Hex or optic? Hex. Me? Me personally? Me personally? That's a person? No, well, you and then, like, it could involve optic, though. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:23:18 Because obviously you're the CEO, you're the boss, so, like, something optic-related. That you haven't done that. And we're not talking about, like, expanding into, like, other things. No, you have done that before. I'm saying something. Just a thought. Is there anything? think.
Starting point is 00:23:32 Oh, yeah. I mean, there's a, there's a bunch, like actual, like, weekly shows, 24-hour live stream that shows. Like, we need a video DJ, like they did back in MTV days where somebody sits and just goes and just goes and say, all right, let's, swoot, you'd be perfect for this. You're just sitting there 24 hours a day. Okay. Or maybe just eight hours a day and then we'll just redo the rerun afterwards.
Starting point is 00:23:53 Okay. Right. And essentially, you're just DJing. You're going from one live stream to another, from one video to another funny moment here. boom, boom, boom, and you just news, you deliver the news quickly, and it just happens,
Starting point is 00:24:04 and then you go from nine to nine, and then from nine to nine, it's the repeat of those, and then the next day it happens again. It's like NFL Red Zone. Like the Red Zone. I was telling James, this is my idea.
Starting point is 00:24:15 I'd said it briefly, but you guys didn't hear it. I think we should do an optic novella. Tele novella. Yeah, 10 minutes episodes. It's going to be a series on YouTube, and it's just like love, betrayal, passion, you know, just.
Starting point is 00:24:28 It's all dudes here. The fuck you're talking about? Are you talking about like an actual like acting, like acting novella show? I'm down to act and do something cool.

Because what I do next year is based on what depends on other people. and you know like we can ask laisfield to see what we should that's true he'd be great on the car okay I'm sorry about you asked me my first time I ever saw optic
Starting point is 00:34:03 that's all good listen you ever heard a big timer the old man of optic yeah I've heard of him he's not an old man of optic that's him what he brams him so fast the old man of optic I feel like that's hutch that's it or hutch
Starting point is 00:34:17 diesel and hex no diesel I got diesel confused my bad diesel one of them brams and so that's like in their bio The old man. That's Diesel. The creator of the logo. He created Opti.
Starting point is 00:34:28 But what about, uh, what about, uh, big timer? You never heard of big timer? Yeah, he played B-O-2 for you guys, right? That's right. Hard carried. Hard carry. Hard carry. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:39 Who was the best out of that, that old group? Like, besides Seth. Uh, was there a snout between like the, the, like, Clayster, big timer, Merck. Who else? No does it like. What game are you talking about? Yeah, what year? Like.
Starting point is 00:34:53 I just did this on stream. When did? Optics first years of like winning. Maybe we can like pull it up what the rosters were. I'm talking like 2000. I don't even know if they had 2008, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2009. Basically, before Big T retired. The first MLG event that Optic won was in Blockups 1, I believe, unless he corrects me.
Starting point is 00:35:18 It's in Blackups 1 and that was like proofie was insane. Before Big T retired, who was the best besides Skinner? out of like I don't know people that have been probably will I just don't see him as like a competitor
Starting point is 00:35:32 a killer just like yeah killer Will will only played one year of the boom of Cod he only played blackups two Will was really
Starting point is 00:35:42 really good at Cod 4 really good at Model War for 3 I don't know how he was in Blackups 1 and then he played Blackups 2 and was good in Blackups 2 well he won championships blackups 1 like was Will better
Starting point is 00:35:53 than like Rambo. Those were their duo. He was the better one? I mean, history will... Yeah, you asked and they said him and like you just don't want to believe it's his name. No, I'm genuinely curious.
Starting point is 00:36:07 Because Nick... How good of a player do you think Nick was back in Hela? I mean, you guys said he was going really nag and sword, flame sort, so probably not... I mean, he was good enough to be on the team. But does he look like a killer? Don't push him. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:23 he does. He does look like a killer. He won a world championship. Yeah, I wouldn't pick a five. Do you know what year he won a world championship? 2006. 2006. Damn, 09, 2009.
Starting point is 00:36:34 Close? 2006. I was six years old in my defense when you won over a championship. 2006 was only like four teams competing. I think Tuger won that one. It's a Tudor hater. 2006 was a good year, but the 48 wins before that. Explain what you were talking about with Ian.
Starting point is 00:36:56 You and Matt talking about Ian, not being the goat. I'm interested. Oh, on the flight cast. No. I would never have. No, I mean, formal. You just said, I was kind of just, I was just, I was just joking. Formal, but Formal did say, what was the question?
Starting point is 00:37:13 It was like, are wins overvalued over skill? Because some people might have a decent amount of wins, but formal was like, some people do have a decent amount of wins but what did those wins look like were you actually there watching the wins people would just chalk up a win as like is I'm trying to think of a team that is one
Starting point is 00:37:31 would you count the minor this year as a chip would apathies win be the same as Sillies win because then they win together yeah but they won the same team but it's like who is dominating that is shit like Hixie so that was sort of the discussion of like
Starting point is 00:37:47 some people chip it was basically world championships are overrated what uh not overrated in a sense of like it's not cool to win them but it's it is just another tournament just because you win you could win no other events but if you have three rings you're one of the goats so they eggs got blessed with his last ring like blessed from the gods yeah he he was on some random team they randomly had a good event Seth played bad I think formal was trying to say like when when formal was winning formal was done dominating.
Starting point is 00:38:20 And then there's a lot of people, they come sort of second half of their career. They're still getting some wins, but it's like they have the kids that are dominating and they're still getting wins off that. I can see that. It's a fair argument. Formal salty because he never got that.
Starting point is 00:38:33 I think so, yeah. Well, he got in Halo. He got in Halo. He had a crazy team of Halo. That's true. Formal was the best, if not second best on the team. That is true.
Starting point is 00:38:43 He did have lucid. Luce was crazy. He was still tucking. But yeah, I guess that was the discussion. Are you mad? You never got that? You never got like frosty
Starting point is 00:38:53 Starlight Eco around you? Yeah. Like I wish I'd I wish you would have fucking asked for it. I feel like it's throwing shots anytime I like say a name but yes I do wish. Damn.
Starting point is 00:39:05 I wish I would have had me a stellar bound legend. Like do I win? Not ready? Or do I just bring them to shit? There's no way though. You just go from top six to top four. But top four is good.
Starting point is 00:39:19 it. I'll take top four. B-T.H. Look at all those ones. Look at all those ones. Just X off, man. There's a bunch of ones right there. X off. Well, some blue. There's some blue in there. There's some blue. I saw blue a little bit.
Starting point is 00:39:35 I saw a green. History, ladies and gentlemen, repeats itself. Let's take a look. Dashian Formal Celebration. What is this? Oh, shit. Wait. He did that on purpose. He did that on purpose. He did that on purpose. This is wrong. I chipped that. Oh my God, he loves him.
Starting point is 00:39:54 He didn't go for the hug after. Well, I don't think, I don't think Merck was with the program. Yeah, Merck wasn't. Where's my... Yeah. Love that shit. Oh, hell yeah. Fire.
Starting point is 00:40:05 I like that a lot. Fire. I bet some... That's a dual autograph card right there. Crazy shit with that. That's a dual autograph card right there. You got to get it going right now. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:16 Hit up the people. We got to do that shit. That's dope as hell. Optic and Doer the gun. Gonlin, congratulations again to the boys, man. Shout out the coaches, JP and Karma. Congratulations to Shasi for winning MVP. Who, what a fucking tournament.
Starting point is 00:40:30 Merck, Dashy. The boys did great, man. So happy for them. What a year of Cod. And thank God, you know, they got over the hump in the second half of the year. They won, you know, the last two out of the last three. Because a year of only second places would have been hard. But still, to get grand finals nine tournaments.
Starting point is 00:40:48 I mean, has there ever been a run like this? No. No. No. No. Cod history. It's never happened. It's never ever happened.
Starting point is 00:40:54 And like people are still, even before this tournament, when they got second at, uh, yeah, worlds, people were like, just, just saying dumb shit. Like, absolute nonsense. This seems low-key trash. Like, they're bad. Just nonsense. Just insanity. When they're in the midst of the, I didn't see a single one of those comments.
Starting point is 00:41:13 In the midst of their in, they're in the single greatest run in Call of Duty history. Right. Like you could, that could be this, that could be the best. Call of Duty team to ever play. If you think about it, if we weren't the only team that had to lose twice or we were the only team
Starting point is 00:41:28 that didn't get to lose twice before being out of a tournament, there is a timeline in which we win every single one. Oh, you're saying the format? It wasn't like that. I want to know the player's thoughts about Damon coaching.
Starting point is 00:41:42 What you mean? It's the same thing that happened last time. He says things when he needs to send majority of the time he kept quiet. I don't know. I didn't hear him talk about it. about frequency is interested JP said the frequency is the best
Starting point is 00:41:54 map in Blackup 7 and they played it for two weeks. Yeah. That's unfortunate. That's on the game though. That's not on the league. I don't think. What part? That frequency was added so late. Oh yeah. That's not on the, I mean, no, it's not. I mean, whatever. The fact of the matter is that there's, there's, it's so discombobulated and now that Microsoft
Starting point is 00:42:16 is there, hopefully something that something fucking can happen, but next year, Warfare 4, release the game with 6 star, release the game with Rio. 2J and Tunisia. Yeah, sure. Release the game with like maybe Vista or Scrapyard. Like if you need it to stay IW maps, release the game with the maps that we know are good, right off the bat. Because-
Starting point is 00:42:44 You don't want all new maps? No. I'm on your side. I was about, I'm really shaking my head. Like, I'm tired of the green. We made and redo like, let's get new maps. We did it in flight. I think we did this in the flycast.
Starting point is 00:42:55 There's been over, what was it like, 1,300 maps in Cod history. No. It was something crazy. I think it's like 1,300 maps. Get the fuck out of here. We're at a point. We're way past the point.
Starting point is 00:43:07 There's just been too many maps. It's impossible to make good maps. We already have the good maps. Yeah. Like we have, every good map we ever view. Leave the wireframe the same and just like skin the, the makeup of it.
Starting point is 00:43:19 Yes. I'm such a casual. I don't mind watching the same maps. That's not a casual. That's what everyone does. Everyone watches dust too. So you were okay with Raid again. Yes.
Starting point is 00:43:31 On BOSM for the same. Yes. Really? Well, it doesn't have to be Raid. I know. I was just an example. In Backup 7, I would have rather had Frequency Arsenal,
Starting point is 00:43:40 uh, French. I would have rather have those maps than Raid again, but I'll take Raid again over trying to play Garrison, you know, or trying to force, I like Harrison, but I know what you mean. Trying to force crossroads at the beginning of Cold War.
Starting point is 00:43:54 Yeah. You know what I mean? Just on that. Yeah, it's just like, just play the, play the maps that we like play. Strike. Strike should be one of the fucking staple S&D maps of all time. So what if they found a map pool of, what's the usual count for map pools? I got an idea.
Starting point is 00:44:10 In a game. In a competitive. How many maps are in the competitive map pool? I think they usually try to get five of each game mode. So like 15 map rotation. So what if every game had the same almost 15 maps? I think that should happen. And just every game is the same 15.
Starting point is 00:44:29 It should be done how like Valerant does their like Valorant will have a split. And during that split there's five maps. And then the next split they take two maps out, put two maps in. But those two maps they took out, maybe they rework them a little bit. And then two splits later, those two maps come back. That's what it, that's what Cod should be. We should always have, if this map's not working, at least we've got Raid in the tuck.
Starting point is 00:44:53 At least we've got, you know, frequency ready to come back. That's a good idea, yeah. I just feel, I don't know why that's not. There is some competitive integrity with that, too. Because I'm sure there's some maps to where they're like, dude, what? This map makes no sense. How are they spawning there?
Starting point is 00:45:08 Like, this map's horrible. It doesn't even make, like, if you get that hill, it's a free hilt that you can't even break. But it also happens in Halo. Like, Halo will release a map pool. I mean, think about that, like, desert map. the two buildings on each side that they were playing at the beginning of
Starting point is 00:45:20 of Hello Infinite and they played that for like four tournaments and it was ass and it's like if you would have just had there was bizarre yeah bizarre it's a CTF map right I think so yeah it's like if you would have just had Coliseum ready just put it in for bizarre until another map comes out that we can play I feel like it in it just it's just how it should be in FPS is in my opinion the cock community anoints optic taxes the best CDO team of all time who's that who's the cut How do we know? That's not even a debate.
Starting point is 00:45:53 I mean, I agree. You think the current Object Texas team is the best CDL team of all time? Oh, the best CDL team of all time. Sorry, sorry. I thought, yeah, I mean, it's either, I think it's definitely top two. They could back it up. Because it's either our guys now or phase Cold War. Those are the only two, right?
Starting point is 00:46:10 This is the only two dominant teams. No one has done what we have done this year. Exactly. Yep, that's what they say. The season is over, and Merck is still. competing. Let's take a look at this. He's probably playing. League of Legends. No, this is good.
Starting point is 00:46:23 Yo, for real, we should. Wait, talking about a play post-EWC. Yo, for real, we shouldn't play like that though, Mason. Chill, the year's over, Mace. We don't have to worry about that map anymore. Brandon, that doesn't matter. Nah, Mace, he, though. It does matter, though.
Starting point is 00:46:37 Yeah, and you're going to learn. I always thought that part was interesting about, like, filming the guys. Is after Champs was over, they would still go back and watch the Vod. And I'm like, bro, it's, you're not going to ever play well they're not watching it to like learn
Starting point is 00:46:49 they're watching it to blame no they would still talk no they would still say like we have we we have to rotate here like mid season no this is at the last event at the end of the last event at the end of the last no it's still EWC maybe that's why no no no no it's what I was filming
Starting point is 00:47:04 there was no there was no there is some like points that like it doesn't matter what the Cata is the points still translate to just any call of view I mean I just think it's anything yeah you're telling me of the Super Bowl, the players don't watch the thing, like
Starting point is 00:47:18 the season's over, but they're still gonna, you know. Yeah, no, you're, I guess it's just when you compete at that higher level. Yeah. And you rewatch it and you're like, I should, any time you win, you're rewatching it. Yeah. Just to get, just to get dope. Wait, the R-AW team had an average placing of 1.7? That's insane.
Starting point is 00:47:35 And they didn't win that year? They won a lot of events. No, I'm saying, they just had more wins. They just didn't win champs, no. Well, what did they place that champs? Seventh. But they won, they won, they won, they won, they won, It got a three-peat and then they lost, they got seventh at champs, and then they won the next event. Literally, like, just a fluke. That's why people...
Starting point is 00:47:55 Yeah, but what's that 1.71? How many... Wait, if they got seventh and still got 1.7... That's good. But how many events is that over? Like 40. It's a shit ton of event. 40?
Starting point is 00:48:09 No, not 40. I was over exaggeration, but it's 12. 12 to 14. Yeah, way more than... Way more than five. That is insane, bro. I didn't realize that. 1.7.
Starting point is 00:48:23 That's crazy because it's probably, that means that's optics's most dominant year ever, and they got seven. One, two, three, four, five, six, and eight. What the fuck? I didn't realize we were that dominant. Eight out of 13, they got number one. This was 2015?

Starting point is 01:00:16 Toy Terminated. Noob It's just gonna be interesting to see how Cod plays with this type of smoke Because smoke is smoke Smokes have been an issue in Cod for like what Six years now?
Starting point is 01:00:28 Five years? Is this smoke just what? Too much? Well, you throw the smoke You lose aim assist in the smoke You know it's crazy So they don't use it to cut off sites They use it to throw at their feet
Starting point is 01:00:38 And shawsy around You know what's crazy is that Call of Duty 2 smokes were a big issue. If you threw enough of them on the ground, everybody will start lagging in the server. Everyone. So, Call of Duty and Smokes, they just haven't figured it out.
Starting point is 01:00:53 It's only been 20... I like Ghost smokes. They were good, right? But then you had a thermal. Which brought thermal's into the game. So you had to throw the smoke and then you had to have, what, like, blind eye on or cold-blooded and then run through the smoke.
Starting point is 01:01:05 I didn't mind ghost smoke. Hopefully the ProZone GA smokes this year. All right, what is, what's the block of football? Yeah, it's anoints.

From the godfather sniping. If he's not impressed, I'm not impressed. He killed four people in the head with one bullet.
