Call of Duty pro players hit out at CWL Pro League analysts for being \u201cdisrespectful and biased\u201d Controversy rang in the competitive Call of Duty community on February 27 as some pro players made strong comments against the analysts of the CWL Pro League. Pro player Rhys \u2018Rated\u2019 Price, part of the Division A squad that formerly represented Red Reserve, was very critical of the Pro League analysts panel, accusing them of being disrespectful and having bias. Rated\u2019s claims came against a panel that primarily features four analysts, three of whom are former established pro players themselves \u2013 Jeremy \u2018StuDyy\u2019 Astacio, Jonathan \u2018Pacman\u2019 Tucker, and Anthony \u2018NAMELESS\u2019 Wheeler. The example he brought up to justify his comments was the apparent disparity in the panel\u2019s analysis of Evil Geniuses and Denial Esports, despite the fact that both teams sit at the bottom of their respective Divisions. He claims that the panel was overly critical of Denial when they were 0-5, calling for a massive roster overhaul, when they were not nearly as harsh in their judgement of Evil Geniuses when they themselves were 0-6. Desk is making me salty, EG we literally 0-6 whilst being expected to be T4 in the division & only thing was said was there sub should be brought in, Denial are 0-5 whilst being expected to be towards the bottom but need to get rid of the whole roster, complete bias & disrespect. \u2014 Rhys Price (@Rated_COD) February 27, 2019 Upon seeing the tweets, several others involved with the pro scene chimed in, and almost all of them were very much in agreement with Rated\u2019s assessment of the analysts. \u201cI could go on literal three hour rant about this desk,\u201d tweeted Gen.G coach Joey Nubzy. \u201cI feel genuinely awful for the amount of disrespect being shown. Not their place to speak on internal things they have no knowledge of.\u201d Former pro player Reedy was a bit more unfiltered with his choice of words: \u201cThe desk is legit such a toxic place, all trying trying to be people they\u2019re not. It\u2019s actually so jokes.\u201d The desk is legit such a toxic place all trying to be people their not it\u2019s actually so jokes. \u2014 Reedy (@Reedy_1905) February 27, 2019 The tweets did not stop there, as more and more reactions started pouring in the comments section of Rated\u2019s original post. If I could speak fluent English these lot would be done out here. \u2014 Dylan Daly (@MadCat) February 27, 2019 Wanted to tweet the same thing yesterday. I can\u2019t tell if it\u2019s unprofessional or if I\u2019m out of touch but listening to \u201cyeah they need to drop this whole roster\u201d by the whole desk AND casters.. :shocked: \u2014 Mitchell Mader (@MF_BuZZO) February 27, 2019 not on broadcast you didn\u2019t, all was said was \u201cthey need to sub GodRx In\u201d, maybe two changes not anywhere near the amount of dirt that\u2019s put on Denials name & both teams are completely different in expectations. \u2014 Rhys Price (@Rated_COD) February 27, 2019 I\u2019ve already said, pay me half of what they\u2019re paying the people on the desk I\u2019ll play & analyse at the same time. \u2014 Rhys Price (@Rated_COD) February 27, 2019 Of course, this is not the first time that players have had public spats with the CWL broadcast teams; there have been numerous verbal altercations between both sides in the past, some of which have gotten quite heated and personal. However, at least at the time of this article\u2019s writing, no one from the analyst panel has yet to comment or respond to Rated\u2019s tweets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
