Throughout his tenure as a professional Call of Duty player, Crimsix has been a member of the two teams widely considered to be \u201cdynasties\u201d \u2014 the Complexity and Evil Geniuses team of 2012-2014, and then his OpTic Gaming squad from 2014-2019. As the most successful player to ever grace the CoD esports scene, Crim has been on inarguably the greatest rosters of all time \u2014 but has now said that he believes his Champs-winning Empire side to be the best ever. \u201cBest team I\u2019ve ever been on, no contest,\u201d he said in a tweet posted shortly after the finals. \u201cWe couldn\u2019t have done it without each other, and I\u2019ve never in my entire career, played a tournament being this prepared.\u201d Best team I\u2019ve ever been on, no contest. We couldn\u2019t have done it without each other, and I\u2019ve never in my entire career, played a tournament being this prepared. The maximum amount of effort was put in, from all 5 of us, and it showed. Fucking love and I\u2019m so proud of these guys pic.twitter.com\/SpLpts71pO \u2014 FaZe Crimsix (@Crimsix) August 30, 2020 Naturally, the response caused a huge stir in the Call of Duty community. Having been on those dynasty teams in the past, and comparisons between the two causing enough division as is, Crim\u2019s claim has now stoked the fires further. Crimsix explains why Dallas Empire is his best team ever While fans debated their beliefs on the OpTic team being better than both, or the Complexity\/EG team being far superior, Crimsix decided to clarify why he believes his Dallas Empire side to be even better. \u201cOn coL, we were dominant to different level,\u201d he said. \u201cA new breed of players, but playing with Aches online takes a mental toll. OG [OpTic Gaming] team had enormous amounts of skill, but if we got out-skilled, we got exposed.\u201d Reddit got triggered by this. This isn\u2019t cap. On coL, we were dominant to different level. A new breed of players, but playing with Aches online takes a mental toll. OG team had enormous amounts of skill, but if we got out skilled, we got exposed. (FaZe AW) My 2 cents. \u2014 Empire C6 (@Crimsix) August 31, 2020 Obviously, there\u2019s an argument to be made in favor of all of Crimsix\u2019s top teams over which one is the best. For now, Crimsix clearly opts for his current side, and it will be interesting to see whether they can maintain the same level of dominance and intensity in the 2021 CDL season on Black Ops Cold War. With young players like Anthony \u2018Shotzzy\u2019 Cuevas-Castro and Indervir \u2018iLLeY\u2019 Dhaliwal still able to develop and grow as competitors, not to mention the perennial prodigy Cuyler \u2018Huke\u2019 Garland, we might have yet another dynasty on our hands \u2014 and then we can truly judge which Crimsix team is the greatest of all time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Crimsix clarifies comment on Dallas Empire being his \u201cbest team ever\u201d Activision\/Dallas Empire\/OpTic Gaming\/Complexity[jwplayer sD84salO]Dallas Empire\u2019s Ian \u2018Crimsix\u2019 Porter has explained why his current team is \u201cthe best he\u2019s ever been on\u201d after the team\u2019s dominant CDL Championship run finished with him earning his third world championship ring on Sunday, August 30.
