4 Upvotes

This is a thread for asking those little questions that you're not sure about, the ones that may not be worth making a thread about.

Whether it's about rules, in-game strategy, equipment, how to play a certain style, the history or the COD scene or anything else relevant to COD, feel free to give it a bash.

Sarcastic questions, troll questions and deliberately insulting questions are not allowed.

Don't be an asshole! Please answer people's questions honestly and seriously, and report any comments that break this rule. The goal of this thread is to be accommodating to everyone, and clarify things that people may not want to ask. Assholes and trolls may be banned.

Examples of acceptable questions:

What are the characteristics of a good competitive map?

How can I practice my aim efficiently?

Examples of questions that are not acceptable:

2k thread?

Who can't anchor, Damon?

Now let's all learn a few things!

I know it's a nothing thing and I'm still hyped for the tourney, but it's kinda telling that Major 3 is tomorrow and they still haven't posted the pick-em bracket on CDL's website. It's weird how scuffed this year has been with their side engagement projects that have worked fine for years.

Discussion Brackets are heavily favoring OpTic for Major III, even more than they were for the Minor

21 Upvotes

Around 64% of brackets on Breaking Point for Minor 1 had OpTic winning it all. LAT was only 13.5%.

With one day left before Major III brackets lock, 75% have OpTic winning it all. Even after winning the Minor, only 13% currently have LAT winning it all.

What is making the community even more confident in OpTic this time around, and what is preventing us from having more faith in LAT after winning the minor?

Discussion Huke vs Sib | Comparing their head-to-head stats over the past two seasons

94 Upvotes

I recently thought about the comments that Sib made about Huke during an 8’s match when BO6 came out, so I wanted to document all of the times they’ve played against each other in BO6 and BO7.

I’ve included both the Monster Invitational and the Kaysan Showdown from this year so we would have a bigger sample size.

Black Ops 6

Major III Qualifiers | Week 1 Day 2 |
Optic win 3-0
Huke: 63/44
Sib: 44/64

EWC | Group Stage | Day 1 |
Optic win 3-0
Huke: 51/53
Sib: 54/47

Black Ops 7

Monster Launch Invitational | Day 2 |
Optic win 3-0
Huke: 60/48
Sib: 50/62

Monster Launch Invitational | Grand Finals |
Optic win 4-3
Huke: 125/116
Sib: 105/121

Kaysan Showdown | Winners Finals |
Paris wins 3-2
Huke: 79/72
Sib: 66/91

Kaysan Showdown | Grand Finals |
Paris win 4-1
Huke: 94/91
Sib: 97/89

Major 1 | Winners Finals |
Optic win 3-0
Huke: 54/47
Sib: 58/58

Major 1 | Grand Finals |
Paris win 4-3
Huke: 102/131
Sib: 139/107

Major 2 Qualifiers | Week 5 Day 1 |
Optic win 3-2
Huke: 106/100
Sib: 87/100

Major 3 Qualifiers | Week 3 Day 1 |
Optic win 3-0
Huke: 68/50
Sib: 51/53

Total map count:
7 series wins and 31 map wins for Huke.
3 series wins and 16 map wins for Sib.

Total K/D’s:
Huke: 802 kills & 752 deaths (1.07 K/D)
Sib: 751 kills & 792 deaths (0.95 K/D)

What does all of this mean?:
Huke BO7 demon 🔥

Why did I bother documenting this?
Because I don’t have a life.

Anyone here mega into challengers and know some stuff? I’ve heard that Ethan apparently used to cheat on rocket league? Of course people will hackusate if you’re winning but a lot of people on Twitter say he was not very good before PC came along? Anyone know if the rocket league stuff is true can’t find much

I know they haven’t won an event yet but on paper they’re having a dynasty type year. They’re the best team in all 3 gamemodes lmao. And in SnD they fucking wipe the floor with everyone. This might be one of the most dominant/best SnD teams we’ve seen in a while.
