The Zero specialist was only added to Black Ops 4 on December 1 and has already split opinion. It\u2019s incredibly powerful \u2018Icepick\u2019 specialist ability allows a player to hack the enemy team and disrupt their own specialists whilst also taking over any active killstreaks. However, Treyarch has already announced a nerf to the specialist which is set to be rolled out on December 18. Whilst a number of pro players have admitted to being confused about how it works, those who have practised since it\u2019s addition have tried to capitalize on its powerful abilities. The specialist has a big fan in the 2018 World Champion, Aches. After many complaints about the specialist during the CMG ProDown tournament, ACHES tweeted: \u201cGot pro players having no idea what Zeros specialist ability does and claiming it needs to go LOL. Crim thought it stole their teams 200 health.\u201d Read More: OpTic Gaming win $2,500 CMG ProDown Black Ops 4 tournament #3 \u2013 recap, highlights, and final placements &#8211; The two-time World Champion had already sung the praises of the addition of Zero, tweeting \u201cSuper happy Treyarch added her,\u201d earlier on December 17. Got pro players having no idea what Zeros specialist ability does and claiming it needs to go LOL. Crim thought it stole their teams 200health hahahahahaah \u2014 Patrick Price (@ACHES) December 18, 2018 OpTic\u2019s Seth \u2018Scump\u2019 Abner did not believe he was being truthful, replying to his tweet with \u201c\/s,\u201d implying that ACHES was being sarcastic with his tweets. However, Aches replied: \u201cI\u2019m being serious. I actually think it\u2019s what this game needed. Some counter play of sorts finally. She needs to stay in.\u201d Scump still wasn\u2019t buying it and replied with multiple crying laughing emojis. The Envy captain then clapped back at Scump, tweeting: \u201cyou guys think Zeros icepick steals crashes 200. So prayers.\u201d you guys think Zeros icepick steals crashes 200. So prayers. \u2014 Patrick Price (@ACHES) December 18, 2018 The OpTic Gaming captain had already made his feelings known about the new specialist just after day one of the third CMG ProDown tournament. In a sweet and short tweet from December 16, Scump stated: \u201cZero gotta go.\u201d It remains to be seen if Zero can have an impact in competitive Call of Duty or if the specialist will be banned under the World League rules like a number of other overpowered specialists. If it\u2019s use goes to the dreaded Gentlemen\u2019s Agreement vote, however, it will have at least one vocal supporter in ACHES.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ACHES calls out OpTic\u2019s Crimsix and fellow CoD pros over controversial Zero specialist DexertoTeam Envy\u2019s Patrick \u2018ACHES\u2019 Price has called out a number of his fellow Call of Duty professionals, including OpTic\u2019s Ian \u2018Crimsix\u2019 Porter, for their opinions on the new Zero specialist.
