Call of Duty: Here\u2019s why Gunless didn\u2019t shake OpTic Gaming\u2019s hands at CWL Vegas Some Call of Duty fans were incensed when Pierce \u2018Gunless\u2019 Hillman failed to shake hands or even acknowledge OpTic Gaming at CWL Las Vegas, but many of his colleagues think it\u2019s been blown out of proprtion. Following Luminosity\u2019s match-up with Optic Gaming on day two of the tournament, the OpTic squad left their seats and walked across the stage to shake hands with their fallen opponents after a 3-0 victory. While almost all Luminosity players bumped fists with OpTic, Hillman failed to turn away from his screen, seemingly declining to partake in the customary after-match ritual. Fans believed this decision from Gunless was disrespectful, with some pointing out that Matthew \u2018FormaL\u2019 Piper took part in the handshakes, even though he left OpTic Gaming earlier in the year. However, during the Wednesday, December 19 episode of Anthony \u2018NAMELESS\u2019 Wheeler\u2019s CoDCast, CWL On-Air Personality Jonathan \u2018Pacman\u2019 Tucker revealed that Gunless didn\u2019t refuse to shake OpTic\u2019s hand intentionally. \u201cHe wasn\u2019t purposefully not shaking hands with OpTic,\u201d stated Pacman. \u201cI asked him, and he said he didn\u2019t know what people were talking about and he was just pissed that they lost. He didn\u2019t even know they were behind him.\u201d \u201cIf you guys knew Gunless, and knew his personality \u2013 he wasn\u2019t shrugging off OpTic, he was just staring at his screen.\u201d NAMELESS went on to confirm that OpTic didn\u2019t feel disrespected by Gunless, and they had no issues with the Luminosity star. The return of Wheeler\u2019s Call of Duty esports focused podcast provided plenty of discussion regarding Gunless. Pro players Chris \u2018Parasite\u2019 Duarte, Austin \u2018SlasheR\u2019 Liddicoat and Donovan \u201cTemp\u201d Laroda clashed with NAMELESS and Pacman as they discussed whether Hillman or Brandon \u201cDashy\u201d Otell is the best Black Ops 4 player in the world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
