CDL Twitter accounts have not been afraid to push the envelope this season with memes and jokes between teams. For example, the NYSL Subliner Twitter account posts hilarious memes and pokes fun at other teams. Other CDL Twitter accounts make similar content, and it adds some light-hearted fun and excitement to the CDL season. Unfortunately, the Atlanta FaZe may have passed the line with a recent \u201cmisogynistic\u201d Twitter post. Atlanta FaZe apologizes for \u201cmisguided\u201d Tweet The FaZe CDL account used a girl filter on popular CDL players such as Anthony \u201cMethodz\u201d Zinni, Seth \u201cScump\u201d Abner, Chris \u201cSimp\u201d Lehr, and Alec \u201cArcitys\u201d Sanderson. The post had pictures of each player with the caption, \u201chow many drinks to take them home?\u201d The post remained up for over a day before eventually being taken down. Esports media personality Jake Lucky posted a side-by-side of the original Tweet and subsequent apology. The official apology stated, \u201cwe have addressed the issue internally and vow to move forward in a positive manner for all.\u201d It was also stated, \u201cWe understand there is no room for misogynistic or harassing behavior and that women and the Call of Duty community deserve better.\u201d Atlanta FaZe have issued an apology for a tweet that drew some backlash in the community.

It is FaZe and they do nothing right.\u201d FaZe Clan was recently in the news after parting ways with Fortnite star Evan \u201cCented\u201d Barron after using a racial slur during a live stream. Atlanta FaZe was also accused of \u201cstealing\u201d its logo from a clothing brand. It will be interesting to see if CDL Twitter accounts take a step back in their meme-making content and what sort of backlash FaZe receives from the CoD community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Atlanta FaZe apologies for \u2018misguided tweet\u2019 featuring CDL players in girl filter FaZe ClanThe Atlanta FaZe organization has apologized after an inappropriate Tweet that went viral from the CDL team account.
