I’d argue this was Faze running into a very hot Subliners team rather than some of the chokes we’ve seen over the years throughout Vanguard and the tail end of MW2. I don’t think any team would have stopped NYSL on Sunday regardless who made the final.
Look I agree with running into a hot team take but it cannot keep happening. They need to close out finals at least consistently. Pretty embarrassing stat fr
Yeah idk what happened to him over the last 2 games. He's just not the same player he was from previous games. He was a top 3 player in every single game until recent. Now he's consistently dropping 0.8-0.9.
He definitely is like a head case type that loses full easily...regardless nobody runs the entry sub role better than he does. Plus when he's on the team goes from really good to insane.
People call optic floptic then faze can only be described as the biggest grand finals chokers ever. 1 of the biggest issues faze has is there coms you can barely understand what any are saying to each other , 😊prime example cellium reminds me of even Baxter from bruce almighty . If faze sorted out there coms alot more they would win more . 2nd issue with faze is the team chemistry is starting to fade more the last few years and I think next year we will see big changes to faze
From Carlos - Who is a player that early in your career you feel you couldn’t really beat that you eventually found a way to overcome. Why couldn’t you beat them initially? How did you finally beat said player or get the better of said player?
I think it’s way simpler when it comes to faze losing grand finals, Celliums play style isn’t winning call of duty and they simply just don’t have the ice
Congrats to NY man. As an OpTic fan I knew the way they celebrated after the major 3 victory was a concern. They acted like they had already conquered the world and a fall off was inevitable.
@@darkvitality when I first tuned in it didn’t really hit me until I started seeing him more on other videos and stream. Now it would be weird if he didn’t do that
Honestly Doug's joke about Boston fielding the Reverse Sweep crew at the Esports World Cup would be cool. It's an inter-season event with no implications for season stats/standings, so some goofy stuff, like a team of pundits, would add more than it'd subtract.
7:19 are we ready to discuss the competition in cold war also just being worse? Empire broke down, optic played like ass, NY just got hydra and were dealing with his emergence. Literally the only team to "rival" faze was ultra who was a rookie insight, young cleanX, and bance/cammy. Faze literally had no competition in cold war and its time we start factoring that into their legacy. They all had dominant years in CW cant take that away from faze, but their greatest competition was not that strong. When they have actual competition (like in MW,VG,MW2,MW3) they are extremely quiet in finals/sundays
You can make the same point for any team in any cod title. There really has only been 2 to 3 teams every year who actually stand a chance at winning the title so there's no point in taking away any teams win for playing lesser competition. Plus everybody looked like shit because that faze team was absolutely dominant so no need to take away from the fact they did what they were suppose to do and won pretty much everything that year
@@toxic_-my1bo well the new evidence is that when decent rosters are formed and stay together all year they can rival faze even though faze has superior talent and longevity. Thats my point, Empire (2019), 100t (VG), Optic/NY (MW2), and now NY,Ultra,Optic have all taken their turns out classing faze who are celebrated as the strongest roster ever. Nobody in their right minds thinks those three out talent faze, yet here we are the 3rd title in a row (and 4th out of 5) in the CDL where faze is consistently out worked on sunday
LAT is not good. I was dumbfounded by everyone thinking they would show out in this major. But I guess when you had 1 LAN win all year then winning your 2nd match on LAN is showing out? 🤦♂️
I bet even if faze had hydra and hydra was frying and they were getting 2nds, people like ben and zoomaa would scapegoat him over holding the trio accountable, even scrap and hydra can't get this faze to close out the finals
I'm an OpTic fan and even I don't think they're winning champs this year. They need to hire a sports psych coach or someone to force these guys to build some damn teamwork.
The bias is CRAZY optic, Toronto and faze all basically had the same years after major 3. Optic had a 7-0 online came 2nd then went 6-1 online came 1st. Somehow they weren’t consistent but faze and Toronto were? Ok
His team made champs best point placement and he stepped up arguably when it mattered most and gave them two huge winner bracket series wins and put them into a good spot for champs. The other guys on the other teams who are rookies except for Abuzah didn’t do that.
Love faze but idk. They obviously do care but it seems like they just brush it off. If it didn’t happen so much it would be a different story but it happens toooo much. Also they seem to not regain very well. When they get put into a blender they don’t get out
For all these reasons we're talking about for Faze not winning in finals, i have the true answer. Most of the time Faze makes finals, they go through winners. I dont want to make excuses for them but tbh, in this format, coming through losers is a bigger advantage simply because of momentum. I want to see a stat of how many teams have won coming through winners vs losers in the cdl era. Terrible format we have. Should be 2 best of 5s simple as that.
Can't use mental block as an excuse the amount of majors they should've won in Vanguard and Champs alone is crazy..They just shut down if they make a change they better not drop Drazah because without him besides CW they aren't beating Optic. They keep Simp and Abezy obviously..Maybe it's Cell they need to drop because In comms you can barely understand him.
Might have to agree as much as I love cell. I think it might be similar to a dashy problem. Cell and dashy are both super gross but can’t win important series to win majors. Even with godly teams.
@Galaxtacy nah I think Dashy (even though it took him 8 years to win more than 1 major) is more useful to Optic than Cell is to ATL..Or if Kenny is annoyed they get Kenny if Kenny is getting fed up with Optic.
@@Galaxtacynah can’t say that cell won champs when he had the chance to and has won multiple majors on top of it they don’t have a great grand finals record but you can’t compare Cellium and Dashy accolades wise bro Cell has clutched up and won a ring in a very competitive game on LAN and Dashy has not
You guys are gonna motivate them to win champs!! Do you guys see Toronto or Faze making a roster change if they don’t win champs? Does EWC open the door for expansion?
As a faze fan, this trio is pathetic. I hope hydra or scrap never join faze, they are gonna ruin their careers and i also hope simp leaves to a better place.
@@user-qx2su6so4cthat’s bold bro, the reason Simp is not winning GFs against everyone is because he has to play against Hydra Scrap or Shotzzy every tournament. Top half of this league is cracked.
@@asaintseb Personally i think an AR that clears up their communication (like ghosty) could slot in for cellium and still have a 1.2 but DRAMATICALLY improve their communication which is crucial to beating the best teams on sunday
Idk maybe I crazy but whenever faze losing these big games they getting killed on the routes and flanks. Like they always getting shot in the side or back.
shottzy said in the scump interview he competes for the money. i havent seen but are any of the faze trio also that way? maybe thats the case. coming from a sports background if u dont compete to win any and everything u usually lose ur edge but maybe its just a mental block in the finals and thats just it.
How is censor gonna say they give too much respect when they were literally shit talking ultra all of stage 3 only to break down on lan major 3 and the same against optic.
Faze - I think Faze are not able to go to the next level in performance. Their coasting ceiling is soo high that they’re unable to break that ceiling come Sunday when teams from losers break their ceiling and are hot from game to game during the weekend. Optic - in my opinion Optic got too big in their heads. Their ego grew too big for their own bodies and the COD gods were unhappy with that hence T12. They released 50 videos on their just 1 major win since Major 1 Vanguard. Their fall from grace has to be studied because it was diabolically catastrophic. Ultra - I just think ultra got complacent in thinking they can beat any team outside of T4. We gotta start talking bout Envoys performance all year because wtf. Subliners - They won. Kismet is the key for them. He started playing creddys a lot this major lol
Faze are serial grand final chokers and they have no excuse. I do think conversations regarding Ultra and maybe Optic on Sunday need to start soon as well if they keep losing. In this case, I don't like the double standard applied to Faze and Ultra on their sunday performances. How can you say Ultra just lost to a hot new york and not apply that narrtive to Faze? Either say both are having trouble on Sundays or say both lost to a hot team but you can't have it a different way for each one.
Why hold the timeframe to Vanguard? Purposely leaving out Cold War is skewed as all hell lol. But even ignoring that, how many top 12s does Faze have? Prize money earned? Mic drop😂 also forgetting the fact that the Tiny Terrors have more chips than the Optic Dynasty. Say what you want about choking on Sundays, but Optic and Faze are not equal 😂
@@jnguyen5948 optic doesnt even reach the finals as often so of course their finals record will be better. its a skewed stat. its not like faze is far ahead of the other top 3 teams like everyone says it is. if you reach the finals more, you have more chances of losing or winning. you will not win them all.
I don’t think they care about becoming a Dinasty(the players) only the fans talk about that, wether you call Faze a Dinasty or not, they have semented themselves as the best team the CDL has had, based on tournament wins and placings.
OpTic are in their own heads and I think dashy realizes that and is trying to reset the way he’s been tweeting I hope as an OpTic fan they can bounce back cos I genuinely think this is an amazing team that got stuck in a rut real bad
I just checked but since the beginning of vanguard faze have finished (1st) 2 times, (2nd) 7 times, (3rd) 6 times and has come lower than 3rd if u only include main events and champs. This shows a clear confidence issue imo as when faze are in winners bracket they have a super high confidence but once they reach lower bracket or grand finals they cant afford to lose and they lose their confidence.
I mean, losers gives you an advantage because you stay warmed up and dont end up sitting for 2 hours. I think faze is fine. NY was just playing great cod. octane and zoomaa have said this multiple times. so ill trust them when it comes to stuff like this.
@@basedgodrockyeah he actually says a whole bunch of nothing. He just sucks off aches and talks smack about optic and sucks off faze and other than that his POV is irrelevant
OpTic sanbagged the last split because they didnt want anyone to copy or hard counter their strats before champs, they are saving it for the event that matters and the only one people will remember, champs - coping optic fan😢
wrong, we dont care about how many kills you have in the entire season, you arent judged by that whatsoever. not only that, NY havent placed as high as faze did overall in the season and got last place in a previous major. faze hasnt. he also doesnt have that high of a K/D agains the top 4. other than this major, they have been looking like the 4th place team.
It’s a whole season award. Both have an event MVP to boast but NYSL have a T12 placing on the year while Faze have the best average placing as a team, largely due to Simp’s consistency throughout the year. Hydra deserves to be in the conversation, he’s just a little too late into the conversation imo.
not only do FaZe crumble in the grand finals it seems to be the same thing if they loser winner finals and drop to losers finals they seem they just end up getting double rounded.
Fazes problem is they are so talented that they speed run a lot of teams and when a team actually fights back they don’t know how to handle it that’s why they are so bad in grand finals they r clearly the most talented team in the league but they have no ice and they don’t know how to fight through adversity when they get hit back they don’t know how to handle it
I understand faze chokes finals and that’s a big problem they need to fix. However, I can’t stand optic fans saying they have the same number of chips in the past few years when faze has way more earnings, better average placing and in general more success. Can’t believe these guys haven’t gone underground after their team got dead last.
well traditionally CoD comp success is measured by chips, not money/regular season placings. For faze to be CELEBRATED the way they are and for optic to be CLOWNED for flopping meanwhile both teams have the same chips success in the last 3 years is pretty ironic. Obviously for us outsides the prize money is nearly unfathomable, but for guys on 400k a year contacts, with sponsorships the money is nice, but they prize is championships and being the best, Not being content with 2nds
@@mkwsoxfan you still missed my point, optic is flopping because they come 12th. Faze is extremely consistent and even if they come 2nd a lot, doesn’t meant they can be compared to optic.
@@himaghnaguha6304 I understand the point completely, most fans aren't celebrating the difference between 2nd-12th except faze fans as a fan of competitive cod and not the person earning the money I'd much rather see 1 championship win and the rest of the placings can be less than 4th. Vs a season where we are consistently top4 but fumble every Sunday. Obviously if I was the one making the money I'd feel differently but as a fan I want to see wins not 2nds
@@mkwsoxfan how about a chip and top 3 placings? Compared to a chip and a top 12 placing right before champs with your team getting slammed by every team in the league?
@@himaghnaguha6304 it all depends on champs, NY got two top12s in mw2 and 2 chips and a ring. After champs if faze gets top3 and optic flop out and they both end with one chip, sure faze gets the tie breaker because of the regular season, but no amount of regular season success over takes a chip.
Idk bout that. I'm an OpTic fan myself but they don't have anything but scrims to figure out their problems and I'm not confident that's enough for them to get it together for champs. I'm hoping they get it together but I'm not holding my breath lol
Dougs point on players not struggling was good I thought. Someone who needs to win to pay for rent that month vs someone who has bands in the bank account is going to be driven in a way thats different
I fear you may be right. The script is crazy this year. Toronto have to win to make it a different champs winner every year. If ultra win we can confirm it’s rigged.
We need to stop with the "competitive era" talk lol. Its a 4 team league which was cemented by the fact that the top 4 each won a major lol. This league is ass, we need 16 teams. "oh but the new 4 teams are going to be plumbers" no they wont, theres tons of good players in challengers that have a low chance to get in, expansion will allow way more new talent to come in.
From a FaZe fan. I have no idea wtf happens on Sunday. I’ve had my hopes up so many times and been let down too many. My expectations are through the floor at this point. 🫠 like where does a lack of Ice even come from. They are the most skilled team in every game but can’t handle the pressure. You’d think they’d be used to pressure by now but maybe they are just mentally checked on Sunday because of the past. I wish we had picked up crim after vanguard I thought maybe we would but it was probably never a conversation.
While NY gains momentum runs over more and more real LaN situations gets map reps against people fighting for their tournament lives and gets to catch fire faze sit backstage and scrim who?
I’d argue this was Faze running into a very hot Subliners team rather than some of the chokes we’ve seen over the years throughout Vanguard and the tail end of MW2. I don’t think any team would have stopped NYSL on Sunday regardless who made the final.
agreed
Couldn't agree more
Thank you people are acting like faze lost to a bottom 8 team and not a red hot Subliners fresh off of slamming ultra and lag
But they always lose to whoever it is they face. How can they always happen to be the second best team in the final?
Look I agree with running into a hot team take but it cannot keep happening. They need to close out finals at least consistently. Pretty embarrassing stat fr
Abezy is one of the worst finals performers for faze
Yeah idk what happened to him over the last 2 games. He's just not the same player he was from previous games. He was a top 3 player in every single game until recent. Now he's consistently dropping 0.8-0.9.

Shoutout to aches giving TeeJ his props, TeeJ super underrated

no way Pat and Dough think Ultra will win champs, they've been playing like crap. It's going to be faze or nysl and I hope for a b2b from nysl
Of course Doug plugging his pull ups
NGL Doug is great on a podcast.
nah doug a t ard, show would be infinitely better w/o him
besides his 10min per episode of absolutely deep throating pat out of the blue he aint bad
@@basedgodrockyeah he actually says a whole bunch of nothing. He just sucks off aches and talks smack about optic and sucks off faze and other than that his POV is irrelevant
@@AbeGames legit
Here’s my question. as a FaZe fan HOW DO WE RIGHT THIS SHIP FOR CHAMPS & Beyond. I’m so fucking lost.
Like bro ,lots of questions no answers
FINE I’LL SUBSCRIBE
OpTic sanbagged the last split because they didnt want anyone to copy or hard counter their strats before champs, they are saving it for the event that matters and the only one people will remember, champs
- coping optic fan😢
This may be a faded take ( in my ZooMaa voice) but the last couple of times Kaysan has been at the venue Faze loses.
Faze I get is super talented and the most consistent team, but calling them "God-like" with a 2-9 Grand Finals record is crazy 😂
no one picked nysl?
Pat is just a mega LAG hater lmao
Hydra is the season mvp, anyone who thinks Simp is more valuable than him is FADED.
wrong, we dont care about how many kills you have in the entire season, you arent judged by that whatsoever. not only that, NY havent placed as high as faze did overall in the season and got last place in a previous major. faze hasnt. he also doesnt have that high of a K/D agains the top 4. other than this major, they have been looking like the 4th place team.
It’s a whole season award. Both have an event MVP to boast but NYSL have a T12 placing on the year while Faze have the best average placing as a team, largely due to Simp’s consistency throughout the year. Hydra deserves to be in the conversation, he’s just a little too late into the conversation imo.
Aches hiding behind his mic on every show irritates me for some reason
not only do FaZe crumble in the grand finals it seems to be the same thing if they loser winner finals and drop to losers finals they seem they just end up getting double rounded.
Fazes problem is they are so talented that they speed run a lot of teams and when a team actually fights back they don’t know how to handle it that’s why they are so bad in grand finals they r clearly the most talented team in the league but they have no ice and they don’t know how to fight through adversity when they get hit back they don’t know how to handle it
Aderal does wonders😮😮
I understand faze chokes finals and that’s a big problem they need to fix. However, I can’t stand optic fans saying they have the same number of chips in the past few years when faze has way more earnings, better average placing and in general more success. Can’t believe these guys haven’t gone underground after their team got dead last.
well traditionally CoD comp success is measured by chips, not money/regular season placings. For faze to be CELEBRATED the way they are and for optic to be CLOWNED for flopping meanwhile both teams have the same chips success in the last 3 years is pretty ironic. Obviously for us outsides the prize money is nearly unfathomable, but for guys on 400k a year contacts, with sponsorships the money is nice, but they prize is championships and being the best, Not being content with 2nds
@@mkwsoxfan you still missed my point, optic is flopping because they come 12th. Faze is extremely consistent and even if they come 2nd a lot, doesn’t meant they can be compared to optic.
@@himaghnaguha6304 I understand the point completely, most fans aren't celebrating the difference between 2nd-12th except faze fans as a fan of competitive cod and not the person earning the money I'd much rather see 1 championship win and the rest of the placings can be less than 4th. Vs a season where we are consistently top4 but fumble every Sunday. Obviously if I was the one making the money I'd feel differently but as a fan I want to see wins not 2nds
@@mkwsoxfan how about a chip and top 3 placings? Compared to a chip and a top 12 placing right before champs with your team getting slammed by every team in the league?
@@himaghnaguha6304 it all depends on champs, NY got two top12s in mw2 and 2 chips and a ring. After champs if faze gets top3 and optic flop out and they both end with one chip, sure faze gets the tie breaker because of the regular season, but no amount of regular season success over takes a chip.
i have never disliked an episode until that doug filibuster at the end omg end the cringe.
Faze chocked a Mickey Mouse chip
Delusional faze fans really tried to brain wash us thinking faze a "dynasty" because they win online 😂

OpTic WORLD CHAMPS
It’s so clear
Idk bout that. I'm an OpTic fan myself but they don't have anything but scrims to figure out their problems and I'm not confident that's enough for them to get it together for champs. I'm hoping they get it together but I'm not holding my breath lol
If you’re Drazah are you worried about losing your job for next year?
Censor glazing aches and faze is not a dynasty sorry just col and optic
Faze needs a scrap on the team Ngl
2/9 in finals is embarrassing, we should be clowning these guys. imagine if that were optic, holy shit the standards are different.
Elite sub segueways. Appreciate ya'll.
Dougs point on players not struggling was good I thought. Someone who needs to win to pay for rent that month vs someone who has bands in the bank account is going to be driven in a way thats different
I don’t think so lmao I think their salaries pays for their rents bills etc prize money is just extra for other luxuries
I said it during qualifiers ny was gonna win this major and I'm an optic fan, I just know ball😅, while all these podcasts go off recency bias

CDL is fake im convinced. FaZe forgets how to play for some reason. OpTic forgot how to play after major 3 😂 its so obvious its fake.
Why would they fake it to make the most marketable teams lose? If it was fake optic would win more than 1 major in 2 years 💀
This is some stupid cope if I've ever seen it...What team would fake it?
I fear you may be right. The script is crazy this year. Toronto have to win to make it a different champs winner every year. If ultra win we can confirm it’s rigged.
@@Galaxtacyif it was rigged optic would win most of the time

Mark is soo annoying too listen too. Can’t stand that deep British accent
And remember Britain made ur country
Bro looks and sounds like Ali-A
There’s no such thing as a ‘British’ accent.
man dont get me wrong I love me some marky b, but goddamn bruh his accent gets kinda cringe to listen to for a whole hour😂
We need to stop with the "competitive era" talk lol. Its a 4 team league which was cemented by the fact that the top 4 each won a major lol. This league is ass, we need 16 teams. "oh but the new 4 teams are going to be plumbers" no they wont, theres tons of good players in challengers that have a low chance to get in, expansion will allow way more new talent to come in.
From a FaZe fan. I have no idea wtf happens on Sunday. I’ve had my hopes up so many times and been let down too many. My expectations are through the floor at this point. 🫠 like where does a lack of Ice even come from. They are the most skilled team in every game but can’t handle the pressure. You’d think they’d be used to pressure by now but maybe they are just mentally checked on Sunday because of the past. I wish we had picked up crim after vanguard I thought maybe we would but it was probably never a conversation.
I think it’s clear bro, they didn’t play 8 warmup games back to back to back right before hoping into the grand finals matchup.
While NY gains momentum runs over more and more real LaN situations gets map reps against people fighting for their tournament lives and gets to catch fire faze sit backstage and scrim who?
Faze "Dynasty" 😂😂 yeah for worst finals record ever.... how embarassing
This show is amazing 🔥💯 and very detailed about the COD league teams 🫡
