Barring Simp or Hydra wanting to join (both unlikely) OpTic shouldn't make a change & I can't believe how many comments on here/in twitch chats I see saying they gotta change.

These guys have made SEVEN straight grand finals. They were nearly unbeatable the entire year on LAN in best of 5s.

Their floor as a team is ridiculous as even in champs GFs vs a red hot faze where they all had .8s they were 3 SnD rounds from 3-peating.

Not to mention the guy they'd drop is Huke, and have we not learned the level of importance he has to the team? There isn't another SMG in the league with his comms/IGL ability who also happens to be among the top SMGs slaying.

They certainly have things to clean up (SnD SnD SnD SnD!!!!) but they'd be insane to drop Huke because they got 2nd 4 times for anyone not named Simp or Hydra.

Simpler times man. Instead we have 9k pull rate controllers and 500 hz monitors. Just go back to console.

C9 looking to replace Hide and Ravens looking to replace Fire. Both teams looking at multiple players alongside Gwinn.

Just curious if theyre all running the same SSDs?

From my understanding the PC is able to be transferred between players via SSD being swapped between. Is this true?

Do new players get nicer SSDs? Is that why 04 is frying???

I personally would love to see a Dashy/Drazah duo enabling a sub duo.

Haven’t seen too much discussion on this sub about the changes to the SR system starting in Season 4.

Essentially, they removed hidden MMR from SR calculations, but kept using MMR in matchmaking. Therefore, anybody with a pair of thumbs could hit Iridescent, as it was now possible for Gold/Platinum level players to get 100+ SR through Crimson while playing people at a similar skill level.

Does this not defeat the entire point of ranked? If ranks aren’t indicator of general skill, what’s the point of having them? I know the devs said they were going to address this for S5, but their “fix” was to make you lose 10 more SR for a loss in Crimson 💀.

Most importantly, I can no longer wear my BO7 Iridescent T-Shirt to events, as it will be impossible for the EGirls to know who’s a shooter and who’s an imposter.

Ridiculous.

I think they all played equally as shit as each other but who as the absolute worst. Dashy couldn’t buy a kill the first 2 maps and had 2 kills in 11 rounds. Merc forgot he had a 1.3 SND KD and decided to chall everything and get shit on. Huke was an easy kill on every respawn and Shotzzy made multiple of the biggest Scams we have ever seen. Also he was neutralized in respawn’s.

I think every player/role got significantly outplayed by their FaZe counterpart.

Abuzah was the best player in the lobby/Dashy might have been the worst

Simp was simp and was amazing in SND/Shottzy had his worst GF’s performance of all time

04 Made huge plays and won his team maps/Huke didn’t elevate his team and played down to their shittiness

Drazah shut down Shottzy/Dashy and was great in SND/Merc was horrible in SND and played very dumb

Overall who was the worst player you think or was it just a collective effort of dogshit.

After the meme that season 4 was where freaking Hecz reached Crimson while divebombing at his enemies, and former hardstuck Plat 3s reached iridescent, things are looking actually hard again. Bonuses will be way less frequent and crimson loses will hurt. What do you think of the changes, good/bad?

M8s next season could have an insane roster of they can pull it off

Joe, Hydra, Scrap & Ethan

Joe is already locked up with them

Hydra is the goal for them it's obvious

But along with Hydra, Scrap could go with since M8s was who was competing with Theives for them in BO6 off-season so I'd say it's very possible if they want to stick together anyway (can't seem them going falcons)

Ethan - potential future superstar if it pays off it could be an incredible team.

Which teams are in the toughest groups?
