Starting point is 00:00:00 Oh, Jesus. Oh my God, he kind of was costed, huh? Wait, what's on the screen right now? I have my eyes closed because I know it's some dumb shit. Wait, that wasn't champs. What's on the screen, Mark? Uh, oh, no, you don't want to. Yeah, I know there's some dumb shit.
Starting point is 00:00:15 You can look at this one. You can look at this one. Oh, no, not that one. Yeah, let's go cherry pick maps. Ladies and gentlemen, this is Optic Podcast, episode 281, where we are going to be discussing neurodivergence. I'm kidding. Today's episode is brought to you by shop.optogaming.com.
Starting point is 00:00:39 Be sure to check out everything available on the site. Everything for Major 3 collection is now available while supplies left. It says, Moodoovidis, which of course in Latin means the green wall. And keep an eye out for Major 4 dropping drop drop, drop coming soon. All right, ladies and gentlemen, we are literally one. She trying to pop out on camera? In one week, in one week, literally from where we sit here to this. We're going to be on our way to Paris.
Starting point is 00:01:10 Shit, man. I'm fucking hype. Time's flying. I'm hyped just not for the flight. Did you upgrade? No. It doesn't make sense in my head. It's in my contract, so I will be having a word with somebody.
Starting point is 00:01:24 You know what he said? He's like, you know, in his head, he's like, that means that they owe me whatever they didn't spend on the flight. And I'm going to get my hits. Pretty much. I read the fine print, bro. It's not domestic only. It's everything, Peterman.
Starting point is 00:01:41 If that is in the contract, we'll obviously honor. Maybe they booked it then. How about we reread it? Maybe they booked you business. You didn't know it. I've been trolling. Zinny's been keeping an eye on this upgrade since Atlanta major. And I took it.
Starting point is 00:01:59 It is worth it, though. It's still hurt. It's worth it. It's still hurt. Even though it drop this is still hurt. I hate it. what drop like the the upgrade price at the time at the time in well is it like 1500 for an upgrade 1400 400 400 for business I know I know man
Starting point is 00:02:18 yeah what's up with him 1400 for business what's up with him but what is it like $100 per hour yeah did you get it both ways or just one both ways so seven 700 away? No, no. Oh. That's one way. Okay. It is worth, though.
Starting point is 00:02:40 I mean. It's a lot of hours. It's an eight hours? Unless you can, if you can sleep, then it's fine. But I can't sleep. I'm staying up all night. That's what I'm saying. I can't sleep on planes.
Starting point is 00:02:51 So you can sleep all day over there? No, on the plane. I can't sleep on planes. Oh, gotcha, gotcha. So you can equalize? I can't sleep on planes unless I am absolute one. Like, or I got an appraisalama jam. Emmy. Exactly. I'll wake up. I've seen the hangover Seth on a plane.
Starting point is 00:03:07 He's, and we have a passenger who wanted to be woken up for meal service, but he has taken two milligrams of Al-Pralesan. We can't wake him up. How do we proceed here? Two milligrams? Is that a lot? He's been, no. He took two Al-prowlies. I mean, actually, yeah, two is a lot. Yeah, I don't know. I think, I think it's, as I was saying, it started in Atlanta. It was at 1600. And then I'm like, yo, just get it. Just get it. And he's like, nah. And I'm like, all right. What, whatever. whatever. It goes up to 4,400. He's like showing me and I'm like, oh, maybe you should just gotten it. And then it finally came down. Right? It came back down to like 14 Honda. As long as it's like around a hundred an hour for like a nine hour flight. Worth it. Like a flight to Jersey, hell no. But you can justify it. How often we go to, how often we fly in overseas? It's a good point. And the sleep going there is so important because what, we leave here
Starting point is 00:03:56 like early evening and we land at like 10 a.m. that time, right? Oh yeah. So if you don't sleep on that first day, bro. And you land. And you land. And you land. you go to sleep there, your whole week's ruined. That's the one thing about flying overseas. I'll be sleeping. That first day just blows. Every time you are just so fucking drained. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:16 And your breath stinks. You're on the plane. You fucking your mouth's dry. You're sweaty. I'm pissed. Gotta go through customs. Oh. You got to wait for your bag.
Starting point is 00:04:24 But after that first day, then vibe. No, they give you those little toothbrush kits so that you can be in there and be like, if you're in first. Do they give, if you're. Yeah, if you're back there. If you're a coach, I'll see if there's upgrades. I don't fucking know. You're not in coach, pro.
Starting point is 00:04:40 You're a premium economy. Absolutely. See, that's fine. That's fine. Have you checked your app? No. You're probably in business. I haven't even looked at my shit.
Starting point is 00:04:49 Hold on. Dude, this guy's so slow. He's saying I'm to have a word with Peterman. He hasn't even looked where he's in work. Yeah, right? Is it American? How did you guys not spend the weekend in Monday? Watch party, dude, fucking consuming some call of duty.
Starting point is 00:05:01 We're heading into the major four in Paris, hosted by the gentle mates. It is scheduled to be the largest attendance call of duty event in the history of call of duty. Wow. Can't wait to see you guys. It's going to be loud in there, man. It's going to be.
Starting point is 00:05:21 When was the last time you, any of you saw the green wall from Europe, the European green wall in person? Oh, Madrid. You guys went to Spain, right? No, he didn't go to Spain. It's probably been like two years. I think. Since when? Two years. No, dude.
Starting point is 00:05:38 It's probably when you competed. Two years? Last time... Three years? Four years? I don't fucking know. Last time we were overseas for Cod was 20-20. Yeah, literally... Yeah. Well, I was at the Olympics.
Starting point is 00:05:50 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I forgot about that. Yep, yep. I forgot about that one. Yeah, I haven't... I didn't see the Green Wall. Yeah, I have not seen the European Green Wall in a minute, so I'm looking forward to it.
Starting point is 00:06:00 All my Parisians, too, members of the Green Wall. I always love going to Europe, dude. because all the people that come to the event, they're always so vivey, bro. Always vibey. Way better than here. Way better than here. No offense. And they're so hype because, like, we never go there.
Starting point is 00:06:15 So it's like, they make the most of the opportunity. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think it's gotten better. Like, the crowds from here are starting to get, like, a little bit more lively. There's still the, you know, the cool and reserved nerds and shit. Yeah, that don't really say shit, but, like, love watching. But little by little, they start opening up.
Starting point is 00:06:30 A snipe, like, the ashes will get anybody up their seats. Yeah, Dallas is sick right now. We were at dinner last night, like on patio. The whole road shut down. I started hearing a chant. People walking down a road chanting. Then the Netherlands bus was like behind them. It was actually just, I'm like, that's so cool.
Starting point is 00:06:47 And then we were walking out. So I was like, Zitty! England! And I was like, what the fuck's going on here? This place is awesome. Fuck, yes. I see you orange. There's so many like reels and TikToks of like people from Japan trying like Texas barbecue.
Starting point is 00:07:02 It's so cool. Yeah. The English once. the ones that get me the most. The English dudes, there's this one guy with the big ass mustache, like a excellent mustache. That shit is big. He got a curled and shit? No, no, it's just like it lays, well, like, he should be on the, like on a coin or on a dollar
Starting point is 00:07:19 bill or something. Yeah? But, but yeah, he's trying food. Texas Twinkies, Avi. Anybody want to go get some Texas Twinkies after this? Speaking of? Dude. The Bar-Berski, yeah.

Starting point is 00:07:40 Yes, it is. I don't understand. It's done. Bro, you guys are 40, dude. Like, what is this? Like, oh, I can't eat this because I'm going to get tied tied. Bro. Hutchins takes you out. Yeah, of course, of course. And you just smell like just smoke.
Starting point is 00:07:53 You can decide. You can just decide. Your fingers smell like you. Bro, your fingers are posted and they're like, holy fuck Texas Roadhouse. Have you guys heard of this place? With the cinnamon butter. Oh. Yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:08:06 I don't know. I'm all about that content. It's just like everything that's happening in Mexico, like this is the thing. The Koreans and the Mexicans, did you see about that here? Turn us up? I want to see this. I want to see everything. Where are you guys from?
Starting point is 00:08:20 Where's everyone from? Japan. Texas is good. Everything is big. Where are you guys from? I love how that's like the, that's, everything is big. Yeah, everything's bigger in Texas for sure. Um, what was they saying?
Starting point is 00:08:40 They're probably mind blown. They probably order a meal and they see the portion and they're like, what the fuck is that? They got to go to Haywire and get the chicken fried steak and see that thing coming. It's just a Texas Roadhouse. So those things are America World Cup. They're sort of Texas Roadhouse. He's immediately. It's a chain restaurant.
Starting point is 00:08:54 Head there immediately. But you can get the best cost performance steak, especially the rabbi. It's absolute best. It is. It is. It is. It is fire. Then you get the blooming onion.
Starting point is 00:09:05 Oh, that's outback You're thinking outback Yeah But they have that too Yeah I haven't been in Texas Rhodehouse has it I'm pretty sure yeah
Starting point is 00:09:13 I don't get any apps there It's just a rolls I ate seven Yeah They're so addicting Oh yeah They do have good Uh, that's where I heard of
Starting point is 00:09:21 With the cinnamon butter But yeah I know you're talking Don't let them find the Charles Oh That's what This is this is what I want to know what
Starting point is 00:09:30 Like Japanese from Japan Obviously Think of catch Think of Uchiko, think of Uchiba. Like just because you're from Japan That stuff isn't fantastic Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, they probably think it's mid though I've been trying to get the team to come out to dinner
Starting point is 00:09:45 They probably think it's expensive as fuck Yeah, yeah It's the first thing I thought about Well, yeah, they'll probably think that You've been trying to get the team come out to dinner? Yeah Just like that's good, but I want to take them to the Mexican So they can try those tacos that I've been eating
Starting point is 00:09:59 Bro, I'm telling you It is, it is by far the best taco experience I've had in Dallas, Texas, period, end of story. Yeah? Yeah, bro. But the thing I hate about is it's one of those upity-ass restaurants that don't let you in with a fucking hat. Or the uppery-ass restaurants are like, yo, what are you wearing?
Starting point is 00:10:15 What's up with that? I'm like, yo, man, I'm here because I can afford it. Dude, just let me in. Or just fucking get, take it to go then. I remember Toronto, they didn't let me into the club with Lulu's on. Or it was a bar. And I was like, bro, fuck yourself. I mean, that was actually a joke.
Starting point is 00:10:29 Like, because you were wearing like a black little lemon pant. And they weren't sweats either. Yeah, yeah. The laydowns. It's like to. When we tried, you might have not been there. It wasn't chance. It was the time before.
Starting point is 00:10:41 Yeah. When in Texas, absolutely. Terry Blacks is a right. Give me that shit, moist as hell. Yeah, this is, this I get down with it. Dude. Terry Blacks. Goldie.
Starting point is 00:10:52 You lie and say you never been there before. They give you the good burnt part. Oh, yeah. At Hutchins, they all, they're all gamers, too. Every time I walk in there, you. Yeah. Every time. Yep. Yep. I walked in there. I walked into Hutchins with like everyone.
Starting point is 00:11:11 Obviously, the Gugans, the, you know, the good, good guys. Every, like, fucking, who was that football player that was here? That was fucking, like, mega famous. Tyree Kill? Nah. Tyler? I don't remember. But I, but we took him. I was like, bro, he took like fucking 30 pictures there.
Starting point is 00:11:30 The other guys in the back was like, yeah, you bring everybody here. I'm like, yeah. Here we go. What is this? Day two, they vlog, day two vlog is live. What is this? That was when they were Bushmen. Oh, the Hutchins barricade one video. Yeah, dude, I'm telling you, Hutchins, Hutchins is the best one north of the beltline, period. But the best one in Texas you guys haven't had is Goldies. Goldies. Goldies. We do got to take a day after Paris. We just have to put it on, on like, I don't know if, I don't know what we got to do because it's getting tiring, like asking people to go have a good time or go have a good meal.
Starting point is 00:12:02 It feels like begging sometimes. Seth. Um, anyway. I keep telling them, just, just wait till you have a kid. Just wait. You'll understand. It'll all make sense. Who?
Starting point is 00:12:14 Them. Mostly him. Mark doesn't. I had a baby once and I was everywhere. I was everywhere. What you mean? Bro, I'm bringing that kid with me. I've just been looking for an excuse, bro.
Starting point is 00:12:25 Yes, that's what I'm saying. Just let me stay in the house. I'm on the couch. Did you end up reaching the next level in, in League of Legends? And league, nah, no. So what are you doing? I play off a gummy every night. Like last night I was playing with JP.
Starting point is 00:12:38 I started like 5 and O and then the gummy kicked in. And I literally threw the entire rest of the game. And I was like, I got to get off. You and JP were playing last night? Yeah, we play all the time. Yo, so you're saying that playing on one gummy is like difficult, more difficult than just playing regularly? Yeah, what?
Starting point is 00:12:53 Have you seen my clips? Playing league? That's on five of those gummies. Like playing Cod's one thing. Playing league where you're getting fucking flashed on and dashed at like yeah it's impossible oh yeah I don't know why I do it but it's so fun also I saw you guys laughing at that
Starting point is 00:13:09 remember when I was like locked in on that one spot and then uh if you notice as soon as I unzoom the guy appears so I was already on zooming and turning so I just fired one off I didn't get scared or get surprised your comments are hilarious though wait what comments like you posted your clip yesterday like your little montage first and foremost your edits
Starting point is 00:13:27 when you edit your play into the final cam is fucking hilarious thank you thank you this one again and yesterday Yesterday's one. Yeah, the little dude. I've been doing that since, I've been doing this top five kill camps of the week. Anybody on your screen isn't safe.
Starting point is 00:13:39 Team A enemy. As soon as he sees any movement, he snapped on to him. It doesn't matter. Yeah. So this transition final kill cam, I've been doing. Don't flinch around Hector.
Starting point is 00:13:49 Okay, right here, look. I'm on zooming already. Ready? I'm like, oh, shit. Yeah. Yeah, that was comedy. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:57 Dude, I mean, my reaction time, dude, is what I want, I just, just, I want you to do it. That was nice. That was nice. think of the reaction time of these 45, 46 year old hands on 50 MPS and the bunk ripskies.
Starting point is 00:14:10 That was good. So can I get to Diamond is the question? And I think that it is very difficult to do it solo with no comms because, for example, this morning, the way that my day was ruined already before I even started is that I was playing a plateau right now
Starting point is 00:14:26 and I haven't been able to fucking move from there. I even quit last night to go watch a very good movie, exit 8, I was looking at that It looks good It's already in the library Go see it It's good
Starting point is 00:14:38 Yeah I haven't finished it It's not scary It'll fuck you It's like a psychological Yeah Okay fuck you So
Starting point is 00:14:43 I was looking at that Looks good I think I can I think I can I think I will It is It is difficult though Because like
Starting point is 00:14:50 You play with people Who just don't have it In them to win And then when you make a suggestion You're whining And then you know Somebody they tell you you're whining I was like yeah
Starting point is 00:15:01 I'm like yo The whole point A hard point It's to get in the hill You know, like, we got to, we got to do this. At the end of the, yeah, I got tight. And I'm gonna tell you why I got tight. They're telling Hector stop whining.
Starting point is 00:15:11 Yeah, bro, and I got, I got tight. I got tight. Of course I got tight. That's fucking awesome. He's like, this guy has 10 less kills than me and has, I have three times the time in the hill than him. And he's saying, I'm clearing the point. Fuck out of here.
Starting point is 00:15:26 That's awesome. We just lost clearing the point. You're not doing a good job. No kills. No time in the hill. Waste of time. So mad. And then.
Starting point is 00:15:33 Like the one that did the worst was this dude and he had like he had optic in his clan tag and then he was wearing like the suit and so I didn't say nothing so he's cool yeah you don't have to kill nothing that's what I'm here for but the other dude what's his name? Wake up his name was wake up. Oh wake up wake up wake up wake up you want it to do. I see the keys on the table but hey I the experience that I'm having right now and this is pissing me off already going down this line the experience that I'm having right
Starting point is 00:16:03 right now is so fucking fun because I want to advance but I can't and I can just think about what it feels like to play at the higher and the highest level of ranked when there's cheaters there because if I'm fucking pissed at regular people like I can only imagine that I can't get this this sense of like competition that like you know fumes me a little bit so annoying like it like I don't want to I don't I don't want that to go away and you can't play yeah I mean obviously I won't make it to those ranks you get to like cram it's yeah that's you literally I won't. Like, you know how annoying that is?
Starting point is 00:16:34 Yeah. I would sit there listening to music and play rank solo, but you just can't. Yeah. That's, it's crazy. Because if I'm getting angry at humans doing that, you think I'm not going to get mad at humans doing just fucking lame-ass shit, too? I can't be a part of that in any situation. Damn, turn off them wallhacks. Who's that fapasoid?
Starting point is 00:16:54 What happened? What the hell? Phapisode. Alex five. 75 and 18. bro I can't do it and he's and they're happy doing this like they get dope doing this how is this fun
Starting point is 00:17:09 I just don't understand Riley you can't talk uh I just don't understand like dude I'll never get it it's it's one of the craziest things in the world I'm not saying like cheaters I'm just saying how they're this is still a thing it's like I just don't I don't I really don't because they have to know they have they definitely know it's like this is what is killing our fucking
Starting point is 00:17:31 but I think it's harder to fix now than ever. Like that's my assumption with AI and all this shit. I feel like it's reaching it like it's unfixable. It's advancing constantly and I don't know. But then you see other games and I also don't know if ricochet is real. I just I don't know if that's a real thing. The thing is it's like if you're going to play a game in ranks
Starting point is 00:17:51 you can't have any questions of like is this guy legit or not because then it just takes away from the whole experience like you're grinding to try to reach a higher rank and then you get to a rank where you're just playing cheaters, it takes literally all the fun that's in it, it just gets sucked out. Because it's like
Starting point is 00:18:08 if you have to question every single player that's killing you, it's just miserable. And then you look like the asshole. When you accuse someone that actually isn't cheating once in a blue moon and then you're somehow the scumbag, when you press rank play, that's when it should be like, okay, if you want to play this, you
Starting point is 00:18:26 have to download this. And you can see every password, I don't give a fuck what you see in my PC. Well, I have faith. As long as I know, as long as I know I'm playing legit, you can see whatever you want. I had faith at the start of the year when we had to do the secure boot, we had to do all the shit, and I had to go into my bios, like, you had to like really
Starting point is 00:18:43 like set up your PC to be able to play and just I don't I was like, yo, it's a, it might actually be fixed. Like, I have some hope. That shit isn't and then of course. And then it's worse than last year somewhere. Yeah, it didn't work literally one bit. And last year was awful like, dude, it makes being a call duty streamer really rough right now because it's like the only thing to do is watch it's like watch huntsman watch cd that's what i try to tell people they're like why don't you play ranked i'm like brother
Starting point is 00:19:09 have you seen ranked it's like it's not even worth playing that's what i don't even waste your child the s and chiles with jane fatty are like the only things i can play that are just legit to invite me man and you're in honestly yeah you might as well stay away because you playing rank is just gonna bring more cheaters huh for you do the justice who me oh that ship sailed i'll be back next year He's going to bring all the cheetah Unless number two comes I'll be back to year He's top playing solo leveling
Starting point is 00:19:35 With the top With like the timeline we're on You essentially have like one month of it You have like one month of like legit And then Yeah the first season's always good And then season well I guess it's season zero Season one they start leaking in
Starting point is 00:19:47 You start noticing them a little more Season two it's Gigi And then season three You're still playing season three Oh baby That's like a self fucking Yeah It's like a fucking kink or something
Starting point is 00:19:58 Because Dude Season two last year I remember I'd get on before the watch party, play every morning. We would just play the same four fuckers every morning over and over and over. Was there hackers when we played, I forgot what modern warfare was, when we were playing high-rise and shit again? MW3?
Starting point is 00:20:17 Was it, yeah, MW3? Was there hackers in that ring? Yeah, there was. I mean, yeah, but it wasn't bad. Right? It wasn't nearly as bad. B-O-6 is where it really started, I feel like. Riley, what rank are you?
Starting point is 00:20:29 Your Diamond 2? Who do you play with? Yeah, all right. See, he knew those a setup. He knew those a setup. He knew that was a setup. But yeah, I mean, we bark up this tree all the time. Yep.

Starting point is 00:21:56 in terms of like a sports event. Really? That is a stadium on the White House lawn. Yeah. And the fighters were walking out of the Oval Office. Damn. Yeah, that's hard. That's hard.

Starting point is 00:22:45 That was tough. And then he saluted him. He didn't even hit the floor yet. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. This is tough. Look at this. They're walking through the White House to the ring that they built on the lawn. That's so, gas.
Starting point is 00:22:59 Come on, you got the shoes on. And they had the live band. Oh, you think they take their shoe stuff when they walk in there? No. They don't give a fuck. If you're in the Oval office, you're good. You're good. The live band was awesome.
Starting point is 00:23:14 Yeah? So cool. Oh, that's so cool, man. I mean, shit, dude, it's got to take like 90 fucking minutes to get to the fucking. He's going to be fucking gas by the time he gets there. The walk is what's like a shit, the long one. Yeah, it is. I'm talking from a fat-ass perspective, aren't I?
Starting point is 00:23:35 Dude, it was so cool. But dude, it kind of sucks. The fights were also awesome. Nick's series is over. Night series is over. Now it's just, I've actually been having a good time watching the World Cup, though. I'm surprised how much I've been enjoying watching it. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:48 World Cup is awesome. I just, because I'm not a soccer guy, obviously. Woo! Yeah, that's so cool. That's why you don't fuck with the U.S. right there. Hey, I was there when I visited my brother. He lives there. In the White House?
Starting point is 00:24:04 Yeah. Hell yeah. America, baby. Here we go. Now we wait for football. I tweeted like, I tweeted this event is so dope. You support this? Shut the fuck up. Just say it's cool.
Starting point is 00:24:21 Literally shut up. Holy fuck. Yeah, it was cool. There was a UFC ring built in front of the White House. They were talking about something else. And when you were watching the fight, you could see the White House. Shut up. I just got knocked out and there's the fucking oval.
Starting point is 00:24:39 What are we bitching about? It was so sick. Yeah, well, we fell short again. Oh, Hector. What? You thought it was cool? I didn't see it, but I like UFC. I don't watch it as much I used to, but in fact, I'm kind of mad that I don't watch
Starting point is 00:24:54 as much. And it's not even like their, it's their fault, not mine that I don't watch anymore. I don't know why. I've been watching this since 1993. It's just not for me. I mean, I just... But bro, let me tell you about the made of bet, though. Just like, let me give you a little summer.
Starting point is 00:25:07 Yes, 1993. I've been watching UFC, but not anymore. I don't know why. Undefeated Ilya, 17 and 0. Best in his class. He's fighting Gaichi, who's like 27 and 5, who's a dog. But like just, Gachi's like 10 years older. Taporia cocky.
Starting point is 00:25:25 He's like celebrating the night before. Fight was fucking insane. Second round, Teporia starts hitting his body. I have no idea how Gachi was walking. Then he hit him would have right. And the dog. doctor, I've never seen it before my entire life in UFC. The doctor walks over, Tuporia's eye, he's like, I can't see.
Starting point is 00:25:41 Doctor walks over, is going like this. And Tuporia is not following his finger, and doctor's like, he can't. You never seen that? And then, no, I've never seen this next part. The doctor says he can't go. And then after a minute, the ref comes over, this is going to keep going. He said, this is going to keep happening. He said, you're not ending this life.
Starting point is 00:26:03 I don't give a fuck if I can't see. I'm going to just throw one out. The doctor was like, no, no, no. And the ref was like, I want to let this go on. I can't believe that you can overrule. Yeah, that's what's weird. I've never seen it before. Because you can die in the UFC.
Starting point is 00:26:16 We got to make sure this shit keeps going. They were probably still in the red a little bit. They're like, we need, give me 45 more seconds. I can't believe because they could be held liable for that probably. If he ends up getting seriously injured. They called the fight off after the fourth round. He couldn't go. Going into the fifth, he went back to his stool.
Starting point is 00:26:34 This corner waved it off. I can't believe they let him keep going. But he made it until the fourth round. Especially in front of the lighthouse. You got to see his face. Broken orbital bone. Yeah. Wait, he had a broken.
Starting point is 00:26:44 Oh my God. Oh, my God. See, like, I'd feel bad punching him in the face at that point. Like, yo, I know this shit hurts. He went from Nick Mirkzuma to... I hate... See, I never watched this guy fight, but like all the clips before this, everyone was talking about, like, he's nasty.
Starting point is 00:26:58 He's boxing. He is. Unreal. He could be a pro boxer. And he got punched up. No, but if you watch him. a second round you'd be like holy shit I don't know he looks touched up to me
Starting point is 00:27:08 wait so who won? Look up the highlights Gagie You should see the other guy No Gaci looked untouched yeah besides his body dude you should see the other guy He had a little spree where he lit his body up And I have no idea how you walk after that Goodness gracious I'm not put my I'm not put my
Starting point is 00:27:28 Anything on the line Look at his left eye bro he looks like fucking scar There's no way for me to look like that Paper has to be flowing. Oh, bro. Not 10. How much for an eye? An eyeball?
Starting point is 00:27:42 Yeah. To go blind? Yeah. I'm not going blind. That's what I'm saying. That's what they're, I'm good. Oh, I mean, look like that with no blindless.
Starting point is 00:27:52 I'll do it for 35 million. 35 million. That's about right. Wait, for that without going to lower. I'm not going to look like that? What? You wouldn't get the shit kicked out of for five? Ten mil.
Starting point is 00:28:04 and be destroyed like that as long as I didn't have to fucking face fractures it's gonna be terrible for a few months yeah I'm good no but then you got 10 plus tax
Starting point is 00:28:16 now I only got like six nope need 35 that's what works that's my deal 35 no tax that's a big difference you guys paid a tax yeah look at my face
Starting point is 00:28:25 y'all 100% cross that was it right there I'm going to bed oh into a head like.
Starting point is 00:28:34 Damn, he's having fun the guy on the right. He looks like Canello a little bit. Upper cut. Tamien lo, ooh. His ribs hurt for weeks.
Starting point is 00:28:47 That's what hurts right there. Oh, and then. Oh, yeah, that hurt. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:28:55 Did he break a rib? No, he barely got him. That's deadly. That's deadly. Yeah, that had to have broken a rib. Oh, my God. Yeah, that's deadly. Ouch.
Starting point is 00:29:09 Rather, can you please show like where he hits him in the body though? Once you see this, you're going to be like, how was Gachi still walking? It was round two. Well, he looks for it. He's on, he had him pin just knee to the fucking ridge. You know how bad that are? Loaded that shit. You got to be full-blown psychotic to fight in that ring.
Starting point is 00:29:30 Psychotic. You think so? I mean, yeah. To endure. that level of pain. That shit is. That's a sport. That's a sport.
Starting point is 00:29:38 That's a sport. If I got hit by, I wonder if they... Right this. I wonder if they get used to it. Oh my God. He does got some hands. This is where he screwed up.
Starting point is 00:29:51 The fact he tried to like submit him instead of just keep wailing on him. It should just get... Ooh. Yeah, I would have jumped on like that ball and just got... Oh, he missed that ball right then. Wait, so the guy in the blue trunks lost. That's the guy that got fucked up.
Starting point is 00:30:05 And he was heavy favorite. He got some hands for show. But I would say, I wonder, like, they have to get used to it at some point. They fought so many times, like... Like the pain? Yeah. Like, it definitely still hurts. I'm sure they're getting wrong.
Starting point is 00:30:18 But, like, they probably have been hit so many times. It's like another day to that. Bro, I think about the little shit, like, if you're... I don't know, maybe he still has a little ruse rib from sparring, and then that gets hit, and then you're getting accidentally pulled. Your skin's getting pinch. She's trying to bend your arm to wear the... bone pops out.
Starting point is 00:30:36 But they have so much adrenaline pumping. Like they probably don't feel it. One knee to the face, one knee to the face, your shit is swelling up. Like, I'm not dealing with that. That's way too much. That's way too much, bro.
Starting point is 00:30:48 But like, you know how adrenaline is. Like, whenever you hurt yourself really bad, like you don't feel the pain because your body, you instantly feel like almost high because it's like, your body just reacts. I salute them, bro,
Starting point is 00:31:00 because God damn, there's so much shit. Like I said, poke, need, someone trying to break your bones, literally, accidental head butts, like... I don't know how they break something and then keep going. Fuck that.
Starting point is 00:31:15 Yeah, that's absurd. Hell no. Mm. Hmm. That's why I fuck with boxing. Yeah? I mean... A little finesse to it.
Starting point is 00:31:23 Not just pure brawn and fucking... Science behind it. Yeah, but like I will say there are some boring ass boxing fights, dude. But those are the best ones to me. The boring ones? I understand that. It's hard to get to you. You don't get it.
Starting point is 00:31:36 Oh, so you're really, you're, you're picking that shit apart. Yeah, that's what I like about it. I'll fuck with the UFC though, too. It's just, when they're on the ground and shit, I'm just... Yeah, the grappling and shit. I get it, though. They're wasting energy and shit like that, but... Now, if it's a real, like the dude, Kabib's dude, what's the dude's name?
Starting point is 00:31:55 Islam? Is that his name? Hamza. No, you're thinking of Islam. The dude that does the stream? Is that Chama? Cool. The dude that does the streams.
Starting point is 00:32:03 He'd be on, like, streaming shit? He's UFC fighter? He's on kick. He does like IRL streaming. I seen him with neon and shit. He's like a rich dude. His dad or parents are rich or something. He's in the UFC. He's a fighter? Yeah. And he's good? I think so. I don't know who you're talking about. Let me see if I can find his hand. No. I forget who's in Kibib's camp. I think it might be Islam. A bear? A bear. I just have a community bear they all wrestle with. I bet you there's somebody in the comments right now. is fucking... McGregor fights July 11th. No.
Starting point is 00:32:40 Wait, who does he fight next, right? Max Holloway? Dude, there was a... There was a video of like... No. It was like three webcams, McGregor, Joe Rogan in the middle, and then Max Holloway.
Starting point is 00:32:51 And McGregor's like, you're not gonna... He's like going at Max. I can't wash this anymore. Like, I can't see you hype this up. I need you to beat the fuck out of him or at least put up a good fight or I can't take a series.
Starting point is 00:33:03 Max Holloway. And I'm taking Max. I'm taking Max. Armand. something? I don't know. I'm a casual. Oh, yeah, yeah, you gotta be.
Starting point is 00:33:12 This dude right here. Let me see him. Fuck. Max Holloway is fighting him? That's my dog. Oh, yeah, I've seen him. Yeah, I fuck with Max Holloway hard,
Starting point is 00:33:23 dude, that motherfucker is raw as fuck too. Max Holloway's tough. He's been fighting for a minute. Yeah, yeah, yeah. BMF is a bad motherfucker. Bad motherfucker, man. Max. So, a lot of game five is major.
Starting point is 00:33:36 duty, we're here. Yeah, man. Everywhere but. Yeah, been. So, obviously, we had, we didn't have like the best, uh, turn. I mean, God, like, I was watching, I just, I was like, is it fucking, I was like this. We had a tough weekend. I was like, I was ready to fucking. Our search has been a little shaky. I was ready to pull this out.
Starting point is 00:33:56 Yeah, no, this is actually, this is, dude, the amount. It's like, kind of weird how quickly it shifted because. Skogat might have. It was like, it was like the. snap of a finger and now it's like game five's every series bro we had like what was it 23-0 or 20 out of 21 or something we're either 303-1
Starting point is 00:34:14 now it's like almost every series is game five and round 11s it's like yeah this the bracket's gonna be weird huh what told me something's happening in land it's gonna be like the better teams just gonna I feel like it's like a mixture of the MPC meta everyone knows the game now and it's online
Starting point is 00:34:30 and it's new teams and shit one of those teams are gonna are gonna G2 make it out a little yeah they're have a little run this one for sure who you think hair six G2 looks good no G2 does look good I don't know I think I'm I'm I feel like everyone good I feel like everyone looks good they just got to make a habit on the carolina can do something no no besides the bottom three yeah they could brother I don't think Carolina can I don't think Carolina is gonna shit the bed I do no I mean the weird thing is coy dude they lurks is obviously crazy but I don't I don't have much faith in
Starting point is 00:35:04 Carolina doing much we'll see You got faith in Koi? Me? No. Well, okay. Bro, look at these standings right now. Like, you have Faze Miami and Koi all one and two. One of them's not making it 100%.
Starting point is 00:35:16 The only team... Wait, what on was not making what? The winner's bracket. Oh, yeah. The only teams I feel good about, like, Underdog is like G2 and weirdly Boston. And that sounds crazy, but Boston is actually like... See, that's Atlantic. When you're just playing well, Boston is a weird team.
Starting point is 00:35:33 Because Purge has been playing really good. Spart as well. Afro has been phenomenal. Dude, Afro has been really good. Like Boston's playing pretty damn well. They're three and one, so that pretty much guarantees a winner's bracket spot. They lost three to thieves. And once again, G2, I'm super high on.
Starting point is 00:35:48 Envoy looks like a whole new player. He's been frying. Yeah, he's been, he looked great as well. Seizier as well has some crazy plays against us. It's just last split though, dude. Last split's always like, it just, it just sucks because this year there's not really a champs race. Like last year was obviously tight. This year it's like, dude, the team that's closest right now is Ravens and they're what, 40 or 50 points back.
Starting point is 00:36:11 So, like, they have to win all of their matches and then go to the tournament and get like top two. And that's the only bubble team. Just kind of makes the online matches a little bit like... Yeah, it sucks. Just less weighted. I think the Rio Falcons are also going to turn up, and be honest. Yeah, this could be their event they do it. Because they are going to have fans there.
Starting point is 00:36:31 They look good at the major. I mean, they look good. They ran out of the scene. but I mean they were looking really solid for a bit. It's just crazy to me that the year is like basically over already. This year is just flown by. This has been the fastest year for me by far. Like it feels like yesterday we just started the league the season
Starting point is 00:36:47 and now it's our last weekend of online. We have three weekends of just tournaments after this. I don't know how that happens. Miami cannot make champ somehow? Yeah, they're making a chance. I mean, if Ravens fucking... Oh, never mind. They got $150.
Starting point is 00:36:59 Yeah, they would have to lose out and then Ravens would have to go get top two minimum. And Miami might actually have some swag now after Real had a big series against Phase. Yeah, but like that's... That's all... They are their kryptonite. It's the weirdest shit ever, bro.
Starting point is 00:37:13 Let Simp get to land first. Simp has not looked great to split, to be honest. You gotta get to land. Which I'm not really worried about him at all. Bro, last split, we were talking about him. Like, he was walking on. We were like, oh, Sim's dead. He was walking out of water.
Starting point is 00:37:25 It's over. Like, they lost that round. Sim's dead. Well, you know it's getting crazy when, like, it's not just us. Like, obviously we went on. too, but Thieves is also going game fives, and thieves
Starting point is 00:37:36 and us were just in a tier above, and now once again some teams can have closed that gap. Yeah, these guys are scary, man. Land will be different, though. I think land will be... Yeah, they're hitting form. They're hitting form. They look really good. They're hitting form. If we can fix our search, though, like...
Starting point is 00:37:53 And they always bullshit against the teams that aren't on their level. When they play teams that are, look like, can shoot back, they look even better. Yeah, but Ernie's wearing spinny hats. Like, you know they're not going hard. No, he was. No, I'm saying that. When they play people that are on their level, they shoot back even more. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. But they, like, against the worst teams, they definitely are trolling.
Starting point is 00:38:11 Oh, yeah, I know. With that team, they are trolling. But yeah, we just got to fix our search, man. A lot of people are worried about the boys right now. It's like, it's just, that's how Call of Duty is. It's like we were bad at overload last split, and that's why we lost the tournament. Now it's like, now we're bad at search. It's so hard to get all three modes, like, on that same level.
Starting point is 00:38:32 But I got full faith in them in. They're going game five's and losing. Like, that's Cod. And it's not like we're the only team that's going game fives. Like you said, Thieves is going game fives with teams. They're just winning them. You couldn't pay me to be worried about these guys right now. After what I saw last year.
Starting point is 00:38:51 I'm worried. I'm worried. You're worried? You're worried? Of course. Really? Yeah. Of course.
Starting point is 00:38:59 I'm not. Always. No, I'm not. But I just know that I got that thing on me right here. Anytime Beep beep Oh Burn some sage
Starting point is 00:39:08 Worked last year One thing I didn't like Was our listening Like I just feel like there was Kyle was still Tyler yeah But I just feel like there's a lack of energy Like if you
Starting point is 00:39:16 If you put side by side Our comms Compared to like a G2 Listenin Riyadh It's like not even remotely close Well Riyadh
Starting point is 00:39:23 I have no idea what's going on They I would lose my mind My head I'd be like Let's go Boodoo Where are they MCC
Starting point is 00:39:29 You can't hear MC XN's mic Mike is popping Fucking Fucking AG's somewhere, not saying anything, getting two pieces, cutting people. I'm coming through tunnel. But he'll say dead. Stay up.
Starting point is 00:39:39 I'm coming tunnel. He'll say dead. He says dead and that's... Dead! Dice Bulldog! I fuck with Riyadh's commo. No, the energy, it's awesome. It's contagious.
Starting point is 00:39:49 It's just, it's fun to listen to. That's the only thing I didn't like was our listening. And obviously the Game 5 search was just, that's why I'm not worried. It's because there's no way I see us doing that in a landmark. We're kind of like reverting back to the... No way we're triple running at a guy on a heady within a 3V1. There's no way. We're reverting back to that like send Dan out
Starting point is 00:40:09 and just try to make a play, but now everyone's playing for that. Yeah. It only took him five years. This Joe DeSeeves guy, by the way. What a series. Kid is good, man. Hey, it's a good investment from the gentlemen's, I respect that. Amen. And now Toronto is just in hell. Those guys
Starting point is 00:40:25 do not look good. I mean, you can say it's deserved, though. Deserved, why? From the players? side? No, not from the player's side. Yeah. But you sell your best player and you don't get Neptune back in the deal. What did you expect to happen? This poor Abe guy, you think he's going to come and replace Joe? Everyone was saying before that even came out, we're like, Abe for insight. What are you guys high? It's not that Abe's bad. He's just not. And Toronto looked good at the major. They
Starting point is 00:40:53 look good. What did they get? Top three, right? Top three or four? I mean, I think they got top time. We lost them game five, right? Or no, they got fifth six, maybe. Maybe? Was Toronto on Sunday? It was Faze Thieves, us and... Yeah, Toronto. Toronto. We beat Toronto Winters' final. Okay. Like, I don't... I didn't know what their angle.
Starting point is 00:41:15 They should have lost to Cloud 9. I don't even understand how that shit happened. Cloud 9 just absolutely threw that series. I've never seen something like that. The team aid? We couldn't believe our fucking eyes. But they lose a 5-3 lead in the Map 5? Yeah, the team need and shower.
Starting point is 00:41:29 Yo, I was, I agree with you guys on this. Yeah, look at him. Who? Kleenex. That's how Toby, I was just making a joke. That's how Toby always looks. Oh, does he? No, that was something different.
Starting point is 00:41:40 No, no, no, no. But Toby's, like, not really animated. He's usually just chilling. He looks like Reked Ralph right there. See, he's focused, ready to go. He stressed his fuck. And then, no, this guy stressed as fuck, ready? Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:41:57 What happened? Look at him. He's like, I have, fuck this bullshit. Yeah, see? See? Yeah. That ain't him. No, yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:42:06 He was... Look at him. Look at him. He's like, oh, fuck, man. Come on then, Toby. I still can't believe that he's not going to be playing
Starting point is 00:42:14 a major four. How is this guy not about a pro team? I'm gonna... Can I do a hot take right now? Go ahead. He's got to be doing some heinous shit in the room. I mean, that's... This, this...
Starting point is 00:42:25 And look, I don't know. Okay? But I know that there's some teams out there that can deal with whatever toxicity is in the air with that. dude or whatever, not getting along with teammates or whatever, but he's got that gun that you need on your fucking team, Pete.
Starting point is 00:42:41 Yo, like, I don't know why he's not playing. And like, you know, obviously the case on thing, him saying that, you know, whatever. Like, you know, players are going to hit up players. That's been happening since the beginning of Call of Duty. I don't think that that speaks on his character, like in a weird way. But from a, from an outsider's perspective, he clearly has like, interpersonal issues with a lot of his teammates. And then maybe that's why he's not being picked up.
Starting point is 00:43:07 But there's teams out there. Perfect time to pick him up. But there's teams out there that should not, it should be like, yeah, big toxic to us. Well, please come be toxic to us,
Starting point is 00:43:16 but shoot for us too. I don't even know how he's toxic. Like every time I mean, I don't know him, but every time I say what's up to him, he's like, even like when people are out drinking after, he's not like around people.
Starting point is 00:43:26 He's like sitting down somewhere by himself and shit. Oh, okay. See, that worry me's. Not, not me. The hell? See, this is what really nailed him in a coffee. Exactly. Because you know him. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:43:36 Because we know him. That's why I'm saying what I'm saying. It has nothing. Yo, you can't get along with Dylan? There's something. Yeah, nah, Dill is like one of the best teammates I'm at. That's what I'm saying. I just wonder what he means by like what.
Starting point is 00:43:50 Let me call him. Because there's different kinds of worst teammates. There's like an asshole who's just like annoying to be around who's just like going at you. Net picking. Fucking. That one. But there's also a teammate who's maybe a little late, overslept, he's tired.
Starting point is 00:44:07 No, that's not toxic. Yeah, but it can be viewed as toxic. Nah, I don't think so. Look at him. We don't think he means it when he shows up late. There's no way Neptune is sitting there looking at Envoy being like, bro, what are you doing here? Yes, 100%. He literally called out.
Starting point is 00:44:24 He said, I'm not going to hear anything from Mr. 0.86 or whatever the fuck. You don't bring that up unless you feel comfortable bringing that up. And if you're bringing it up publicly, that means that you're comfortable bringing it up privately, and he probably has said, undercut it the whole time. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:37 Like this guy fucking, he said, he said some undercutting that shit. I'm not going to listen to him. You're getting shit on. Like, yeah. But having said that,
Starting point is 00:44:45 I pick him up. You pick Neptune up. If I'm one of those five through eight teams, I'm picking up Neptune. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:52 Yeah. Yes. Yes. Yeah. I can't even believe when watching. Neptune and Kips would be fire. I'm just saying.
Starting point is 00:45:00 And if I'm Neptune, I get there to whatever new, the Ravens or wherever I get to next. And I'm like, hey, you're an angel. I'm Neptune. I was brought here because I am him. You guys are going to follow my lead. If not, this isn't going to work. And then everybody else has to be cool with that. I know if he's doing that.
Starting point is 00:45:16 No, he has to. When I come in. I didn't say that. But, yo, like, I'm being called up because you motherfuckers suck. I've won. If you want, no. Follow my lead then. It's what I would say if I'm Neptune.
Starting point is 00:45:26 I went large leaves fanning me with race. Yes. Do you get along in Toronto? Is it, you three carry me on stage? Those guys aren't confrontational. Yeah, no, not really. Who? I mean, either way, you're not going to be toxic at this point in the season.
Starting point is 00:45:38 There's not enough time. If something goes wrong there, then it's a personal problem. We don't know how they are in the team room, but yeah, in person, those guys are five beats. There's nowhere. All I'm saying is somebody needs to pick him up. At this point, when's roster lock? I mean, EWC is kind of its own beast, but for champs? I saw this.
Starting point is 00:45:57 Nero was getting roasted for posting this, which is like, okay there's two sides of this. Why would he get roasted for posting this? Because everyone's like, it was verse gentlemen mates. Everybody knows. Ha, ha, you were going to lose anyway, blah, blah, blah. That may be true. But you could also say that that is unacceptable in a pro match.
Starting point is 00:46:12 There is no world in which that is acceptable in a pro-Call duty. Can we use the call-duty community to get past this shit? Like, bro, he's on 250 ping. Fucking give him a break. Bro, people bitch when they're on 50-ping. You're not getting no kills. You're playing professionals. You are not, you are literally,
Starting point is 00:46:29 not even... With an MPC, you're not even sniffing a hit marker. Brother, like... What sucks is there's nothing that you can even do to mitigate this. This is all server-to-server connection, right? So, like, for example, when the Huntsman are playing, they're all on the same line, but... Like, it happened in the most recent elite.
Starting point is 00:46:46 Johnny was jumping to 50 ping when everyone else was on 20-Ping, and he was getting like 10% packet loss. And that's all based on, like, the server-rout. One-per-one packet loss, you're getting fucking railed. And you're already in your head, you're like, bro, I'm skipping. I'm checked. If I see anything pop up on the left side, why is that... Expoly, whatever the fuck.
Starting point is 00:47:04 Like, why is that popping up? Because there's glitches. The fuck is expletion. There's glitch servers. Like, for example, like, when we play Chowles, like, Texas to New York is glitched. So sometimes we have to, like, ask the hosting team to keep reset in the lobby and reset the server. And then we'll finally not have, like, packet loss or whatever it is. So it just, like, there's issues with the servers.
Starting point is 00:47:23 Unacceptable. But, yeah. That sucks. That sucks. That's just the online stuff, man. there really is no way around it. But like, bro, he's on 250 pin. Give the guy a break, bro.
Starting point is 00:47:34 No, they were not giving him break. I mean, like, come on. It's not even his fault. They were saying, you fucking suck and you want E-sex, ha-ha. Okay, well, that's funny. But, like, that's acceptable, the E-sex, but it's like, come on, bro. Anything over, like... Anything over 50 in a pro match?
Starting point is 00:47:52 Yes. You are getting railed. Yes. Like, maybe not every... Like, 50's playable, for sure. But if the other team's on 20-pings... down, but I mean, if you're,
Starting point is 00:48:03 yeah, anything over 50 is going to be tough. And I know people know what Ping feels like because all the time people are like, dude, how do you have 4 MS? I only play on 50 to 80 in Cali. Like, people know what bad ping feels like. Now imagine you're playing people on 20 Ping in a fucking pro match. You are getting railed.
Starting point is 00:48:19 Man, that sucks. They're literally challenging you different because they know. Yeah. Oh, you're like not even real. You're 15, 20 ping and other person's 50 and you know that. tap up tap tap oh fly out he ain't gonna hit me go back and watch our cold war match against phase when they were quad host and we didn't know it we were sitting in that we were playing the match like I just remember me and brandon like y'all they're unkillable I remember I got killed in uh red on
Starting point is 00:48:43 raid it was uh I forget who killed me and I just right then and there I was like oh yeah we lost I shot him four or five times and I was like what the fuck Brandon went into theater after the match because we were like tweaking we're like we are not this bad. And all of them were on four ping. Oh, so they just cleared the lobby as fast as possible. They were speed run. Oh, we got speed run.
Starting point is 00:49:06 We got speed run. Against Faye's Cold War? Oh. On quad host? We got fucking Xavier. That would send me sideways. Zini, we got some huntsman updates? One-on-one in the elite.
Starting point is 00:49:21 We lost to Bush. But, hey, luckily, they might not be going to the major. They don't have a team pass. So, goodness, man. It's a good spot to being for the Huntsman. right. Obviously kidding. That's a joke by the way.
Starting point is 00:49:31 Acceptable. But yeah, we play Falcons Academy Green. I guess this comes out tomorrow Wednesday. So tonight, so tonight we play Falcons Academy. We win that.
Starting point is 00:49:40 We're top four. And then we're going to hopefully continue on. But yeah, right now in the losers' bracket, we beat Swutie's team and then lost to Bush the same night.
Starting point is 00:49:50 Yeah. And also update, Optic podcast is Wednesdays now instead of Thursdays. FYI, going forward, Wednesday. instead of Thursdays. It's a big change.
Starting point is 00:50:00 Yeah, we should talk about this team pass drama. So from what, so we had a team pass reserved because we were an elite playoff team. My understanding is that because Bush weren't, they didn't qualify for the previous elite, so the passes were reserved
Starting point is 00:50:18 for the previous elite teams, not the new elite teams. Yeah, Zinni was like that. Press that, Raleigh, what is that? Yes, Zinni was like that. What is this? Is this the troll? See here
Starting point is 00:50:52 Oh Me versus Zuma This was free Damn Methods is 10 and 6 Of course Uh he's got the bar though Man look at the young scum
Starting point is 00:51:06 So did Sam he's 2 and 7 Yeah what happened Come on and Tom Sit down I think we lost that round 11 didn't we Yeah we did Wait you That was when wait was that when replay streak
Starting point is 00:51:22 killed me and I had Mountain Eon or whatever Oh, Jesus Oh my God He kind of was costed, huh? Wait, what's on the screen? Right now? I have my eyes closed
Starting point is 00:51:32 because I know it's some dumb shit. Wait, that wasn't champs. What's on the screen, Mark? Oh, no, you don't want to... Yeah, no, I know there's some dumb shit. You can look at this one. Oh, no, not that one. Yeah, let's go cherry pick maps.
Starting point is 00:51:48 Wait, this wasn't champs, was it? No. No, this was not champs. Yeah, I wasn't even champs. You were hoping it was, though? Yeah, it's weird. Yeah, it's replaying. We didn't play those guys.
Starting point is 00:51:56 That was not chance. Okay, let's go cherry pick an entire fucking season of maps where Seth got shit on. Yeah. You were next. Fuck off. Really good. A giant inflatable soccer ball turned
Starting point is 00:52:08 San Salvador streets into IRO Rocket League. Let's take a look. I love this already. What the fuck? Yo, bro, that would fucking tweak me if I was on the road. You have no idea. Would you speed up to hit it? You just fucking hit him.
Starting point is 00:52:22 Well, if I saw it do that, then I'd be like, Yeah. But before? I could see by the movement. I could tell by the movement that had enough. Bro, look. Look, brother, the wind's taking it.
Starting point is 00:52:32 No, what do you think the fucking wagon's going to do to that thing? What if it was like a target ball? That shit would squish your wagon. Oh, fuck. That, well, I would be able to tell that it's not bouncing. Yeah, I would be mind-blown.
Starting point is 00:52:45 The new Jackass movie has a life-sized Wii-man popcorn bucket. Let's take a look. It ain't going to be big. I wonder if, that's a cool collectible. I wonder if he can still kick. Is that real? I can get that at the theater?
Starting point is 00:52:59 The whole damn theater is going to be filled up. Yo, Jack, guys. What do I do? Put them next to me? What do I got to get? I got to get a second seat for him? You can't put them in the aisle like that. Oh, it's one of a kind. It'll block the whole lane. It's one of a kind. Imagine everyone's walking in with their big Wii man buckets. You'll see a bunch of little wee-mans all over the theater. One of like Casey Knice that.
Starting point is 00:53:26 World is healing. The world is healing. It actually is kind of. No, it's not. You don't think so? No, I feel like it is kind of like going back. to a living. McDonald's weren't there, they're getting worse and worse by the day. You think so? I know so.
Starting point is 00:53:38 Wait, what did you say? I don't think it's been getting a little better. He said the world is getting worse and worse every single day. Not, I'm not saying the world. I'm saying like online shit. Way, worse every day. Like people are starting to get a little less. They're all bots.
Starting point is 00:53:48 They don't exist. Drop the original snap crap. Yeah, the dead internet theory. Dead internet theory, dude. It's actually crazy when you really look into it. It's like, wow. You dove down that rabbit hole? You dove down that rabbit hole?
Starting point is 00:53:59 Because I just don't, like, there's no way everyone thinks the way they think. I refuse to believe it. Oh, I'm perfectly fine with bringing it back to the fucking Stone Angels. I'm going outside. Do you know what 2016 Twitter was like? There was literally nothing better. It was the best place on it. It was good.
Starting point is 00:54:13 It was the best place on Earth. It was my favorite app. It took it as serious. It was awesome. I don't even know if the kids like listen for the ice cream truck and catch it anymore. Yes, they do. You'd be surprised, man. I hear the ice cream truck sometimes and I still get hype.
Starting point is 00:54:27 I'm like, yeah. You hear it. It's an ice cream waymo. I still get hype. Mark Walbur's reportedly being eyed for a role in the Call of Duty movie, filming us looking at the beginning of early 2027. Yeah. He's playing scump.
Starting point is 00:54:40 He's going to have red hair. That's right. We might have to get involved in that. That might be loki a fire idea. What? Autonomous ice cream truck. I like it. Don't do this.
Starting point is 00:54:50 What do you want? All right. Here are some questions from around the internet. What would you do hypotheticals? Embo's. If you spun into an empty classroom, approximately 40 feet by 25 feet. at the end of the room is a door. Every 45 seconds, a wave of five kindergartners
Starting point is 00:55:06 will run into the room. If the kindergartners pin you to the ground for 15 seconds, you lose. How long will you be able to survive? Context. Every time you K-O. one of them, they despawn. There are no props in the room, desk chairs, it's literally heading for combat.
Starting point is 00:55:22 I'm going to be alive for a long time, bro. Yeah. It's just a matter of endurance at that point. And are they just bought it out to where if they see the first one catch this right from that way is there any funds on this or is this just pure just for fun. This is fucked up
Starting point is 00:55:38 you're like well then if it's for fun I'll do it forever if there's if it's for fun then they'll probably eventually get me down but I mean it's I'm gonna be up for a long time kindergarteners it's like fucked up to think about very fucked up just fucking boom kick punch
Starting point is 00:55:54 yeah I wouldn't punch anybody I'd be like Sean Michaels kick only brother your kicks are not strong dude I had a kidder gardener? I'm not a kid they would be 100%. They would go flying like a dart. Yeah, I mean.
Starting point is 00:56:08 Like a Jackson? All right. Here's the next one. Hypothetical. You're forced to perform in an arena of 100,000 people, and you must sing every word to one song perfectly. If you mess up a single syllable or sing off rhythm, you fall into a pit of snakes. What song are you choosing?
Starting point is 00:56:25 I don't even know. Tequila. Tequila. I'm done. I'm done. That's one word. Happy birthday, the national anthem. No, you have to pick like a real song.
Starting point is 00:56:37 The ABCs. I have to pick a real song? Happy birthday? Yeah, happy birthday, probably. Nah, that don't count. He's saying you've got to pick a real song. I don't know. Spanish days of the week.
Starting point is 00:56:46 So lunas, March, Mardi. That'd be fine. Sunday morning, Maroon 5. What? Sunday morning, Maroon 5. Really? Sunday morning rain is falling. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:57:00 I got so. Maybe Marvin's wrong? Yeah, fucking right. I don't think I know a single song. I don't think I know a single song. No, I'd fuck up a word for sure. Yeah, I feel like there's, I'm definitely screwed up somewhere. To get every word right?
Starting point is 00:57:14 Like, there's songs where like, I just don't even know what they're saying because they don't enunciate or the beats like over it. Like there's, don't pick a rap song. Yeah. That's just, you got to do like a slow. Mob deep shook once part two. Dead. Hmm. But then you got to think about
Starting point is 00:57:36 there's 100,000 people watch it, so you're definitely... Oh, yeah, but... If you're on stage in a hundred thousand, you feel that. Well, the thing is, like, you fall into a pit of snakes. Oh, spikes!
Starting point is 00:57:46 Yeah, you're dead. Well, I mean, if I look down, like, I could probably, like, avoid some of them. I'd do some, like, some ninja shit. I'd, like, land in between them. Yeah, that's what I would do, too. Fucking one of them is right under my balls.
Starting point is 00:57:57 I would tuck of the balls. I'm staring at it. There's a beat of sweat dripping down my nose. All right. You can either spend one month on a plane or get one million dollars. The plane? Yeah, what?
Starting point is 00:58:12 Obviously. If I know the plane can't go down, yes. Now, leave the plane. You may bring up to 10 other people. I'm literally Starlink league for a month. Yeah, it's literally the easiest thing ever. Starlink leagging for a month for a millie. Sounds like a fucking dream.
Starting point is 00:58:27 The easiest thing ever. As long as it cannot go down, that is the freest cash. All right, Riley. This is easy. Yeah? This is the easiest thing ever. free unlimited food, internet,
Starting point is 00:58:40 10 people of your choice, choosing, yeah, I mean, this is free. As long as I know it's not crashing, I'm up there watching. I'm binge watching everything. Yeah. Tequila.
Starting point is 00:58:53 Ordering food like 30 days. Like I'm at the U. Let me get a sushi. You had the Alperali in there? It's basically 20 days. All right. And the last one, you're giving a single-use time machine.
Starting point is 00:59:07 you can use it to go back to any point in your life or any point in history and freely interact with or change anything you want. However, once you go there, you have to live. One more two chaps! You, thank God. Please go. Can you please go change that?
Starting point is 00:59:21 Please. Well, you can't change anything. You just get to... I wouldn't evade that, Chipotle. No, you can use it and freely interact with and change anything you want. However, once you go there, you have to live out the timeline in real time
Starting point is 00:59:34 until you get back to present day. So you won't you won't age until you return to the day. I'm going back to the start then. I'm going back to fucking right. I'm going back to kindergarten. I'm just doing it again. I'm going back to high school. Running back.
Starting point is 00:59:46 Oh, God. I'm going to, I'm going to the same shit. I'm going back to like five years old. Look up the day Bitcoin came out. Oh, as soon as I spun in. Do we have the same knowledge that we have now living for five all on Bitcoin? I would do a month before. I'd be robbing people to put it on Bitcoin.
Starting point is 01:00:01 I would do three months before Bitcoin drop and I'd work every single day overtime as hard. as I possibly can and to scavenge every single dollar I can muster and put it all into Bitcoin. You wouldn't even need to do that.
Starting point is 01:00:11 I wouldn't do that. With how much it Xed, you wouldn't even need to do that. How much it cost back? Bro, a guy bought a pizza and it would have been worth how much was that? $6 billion or something.
Starting point is 01:00:20 It was like $10,000. He bought a pizza with Bitcoin. If he held it, it's worth like $800 million for a pizza. That guy's sick. See, that's one of those things where you gotta lie yourself
Starting point is 01:00:35 and be like, no, everything happens for a reason. No, you don't. You can't even think about it. It's like it's a different timeline. It's a completely different universe. I mean, yeah, you can't know.
Starting point is 01:00:46 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But. Otherwise, we would all be in that same scenario. I know if this happened to me. I'd have a hot time. I'd never eat pizza again. It's been 16 years since Bitcoin came out. Yeah?
Starting point is 01:01:00 Wow. When you get a chance, just go look at the top wallets. Just skim through page of, you know, go through the top 500. He bought a pizza and it's where. 800 million today. There's people that put in once and never touch shit again, bro. And just wait.
Starting point is 01:01:14 They're just pitch. This next cycle. There's some people that made 100 mil and their one out was 20 mil. Wait for that shit to buy it? I'm going all in. I saw one guy who's no outs still buying Bitcoin to this day.
Starting point is 01:01:28 He has like fucking 700 mil. Oh yeah. What? I feel like throwing another one of my 700 million that I already got for buying a invisible coin. I'm got it's not even real money at that point oh hell no it's like I don't know the only thing I'm worried about at that point is
Starting point is 01:01:45 what's the smoothest way I can get this shit to start leaking into my bank account because you know if you take out 10 million it's gonna be a stoppage and they're gonna be calling oh no you want to worry about that how did that I don't have a black card yeah but we still got to make sure no don't worry about it's black card how's it getting paid someone I would just be worried if I had that much like that shit's on a USB drive and fucking what's the
Starting point is 01:02:13 wizard vault and Harry Potter Grimbalds that shit is underground I would do what any sensible person would do
Starting point is 01:02:22 and I would split it into 10 different ones and I'll put them in 10 different places Hide them like Hor Cruxes Yeah fucking Like the fucking
Starting point is 01:02:28 I don't know Where I'd like dragon balls What in a bank? Yeah I mean That's Unless that shit goes up In fucking flames
Starting point is 01:02:35 You can't put it in a hole They lie to you and say Oh this is You know This can be a blaze for 10 hours and it won't get to the USB. I'm fucking sure. We'll try.
Starting point is 01:02:46 I'm running in that burning house. All right. Well, that is. No questions. Yeah, 100%. At first, no gear or nothing. A sledgehammer is all I need. Babe, save me.
