Crimsix reveals forced retirement fears in heated exchange with LA Guerrillas GM Call of Duty LeagueIan \u2018Crimsix\u2019 Porter has revealed he feared being forced into retirement during recent offseason CDL salary negotiations after he got into a heated social media exchange with the LA Guerrillas General Manager. On October 13, Crimsix spoke out about the salary situation in the Call of Duty League, accusing a third of teams of paying the \u201cdogsh*t minimum\u201d to their players in an impassioned rant on his Twitch channel. While that seemed to be the end of it, just a day later, he got into a seriously heated exchange with Los Angeles Guerrillas GM Alex Rubens, in which Crim claimed that Rubens told him LAG would prefer to take Anthony \u2018Methodz\u2019 Zinni on account of the lower costs. As the debate raged on and even switched platforms to Reddit, Crimsix revealed that he was \u201cf**king terrified\u201d when he felt that he might be forced into retirement as a result of these recent negotiations. After Rubens denied that a third of teams were paying the minimum wage \u2014 saying that it\u2019s only one team doing so \u2014 Crimsix refuted and even accused LAG of \u201coverpaying\u201d their players in 2021. I must be the CIA of the CDL because that\u2019s just simply not true. And even if it\u2019s say $20k over the min, $70k x 4 is still potentially LESS than a single mid-tier players salary. LAG is not in that 1\/3, you guys actually overpaid your roster in 2021 IMO. \u2014 FaZe Crimsix (@Crimsix) October 15, 2021 Following this is when he made the claim that LAG were the team that allegedly preferred to pick up Methodz rather than Crim. \u201cYou thought it would be better to build with Zinni as well as it being cheaper than to build around me,\u201d he said. \u201cSomething that also blows my mind is that these orgs have people such as yourself making calls. I bet it wasn\u2019t pleasant when Patrick Price played your wallets and egos like a fiddle.\u201d The conversation then moved over to the CoDCompetitive subreddit, in which Rubens claimed that he has \u201czero idea what Crimsix is even referencing and it\u2019s completely made up.\u201d Crim responded saying that \u201cit was the first time in my career where I realized that I might be forced into retirement because of someone else\u2019s decision (hypothetically) and it f**king terrified me.\u201d While Crimsix is one of the older players in the CDL, he\u2019s still shown over the last couple of seasons that he\u2019s more than capable of forging a winning team, being in the championship conversation during the last two seasons. His retirement would no doubt shake the CoD community, but if the rumored 2022 rosters are true, fans don\u2019t need to worry about him quitting any time soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
