Enable: Ultra bullied FaZe to win the Stage 2 Major | CDL Reverse Sweep Review After the shocking Toronto Ultra win in the Call of Duty League\u2019s Stage 2 Major, our Reverse Sweep team is back to recap all the biggest moments. Ian \u2018Enable\u2019 Wyatt, Jonathan \u2018Pacman\u2019 Tucker, and Katie Bedford are here to break everything down. In what was the most unpredictable event thus far in 2021, Ultra stunned Atlanta FaZe to take home the Stage 2 championship. From Accuracy\u2019s historic clutch to the lackluster showing from Dallas Empire, join our Reverse Sweep crew as they make sense of it all. Ultra shocks the world with Stage 2 Major win Seemingly out of nowhere, the entire Toronto lineup reached a new level in the Stage 2 Major. Their performance was nothing short of \u201cphenomenal,\u201d as Pacman described it. It was \u201cthe most improbable win. They beat all of the top teams.\u201d Not only did they secure the Stage 2 trophy, but they did so in style, Enable added. \u201cThat was the first time in Cold War that FaZe was on the opposite side of getting bullied.\u201d Does the Major format need to change? Is it now a DISADVANTAGE to be from the winners side?@PacmanJT, @WorldsBedford & @Enable discuss the bracket format and how it is \u201cinsulting\u201d to the winners’ side team. \ud83e\udd14 #CDL2021 Major Review: https:\/\/t.co\/EoVSLe0LNv pic.twitter.com\/u9FJApDx95 \u2014 Dexerto Esports (@DexertoEsports) April 13, 2021 Not to discredit Ultra\u2019s shocking run, but the format of the CDL Majors \u201cis a little bit iffy,\u201d in Pacman\u2019s eyes. For Atlanta FaZe, they came through the winners bracket but had no real advantage in the Grand Finals. One series loss in the entire event and that was all she wrote for the Stage 1 champs. \u201cYou need to find a way to give the winners bracket team an advantage,\u201d Enable said. \u201cThe vetoes\u2026 that doesn\u2019t matter. Ultra deserve the win, they outplayed FaZe. But still\u2026 you have to be able to give them something. They lost one series, they lost the tournament.\u201d Dallas Empire struggling to find championship form Despite a solid showing in the latest event, for Dallas Empire, their performance wasn\u2019t all too inspiring for our Reverse Sweep team. \u201cIt\u2019s tough to be down on a team that got third,\u201d Pacman admitted. \u201cBut it\u2019s the way that they\u2019re winning. They\u2019re not dominating anyone, everything is down to the wire.\u201d In fact, Enable even argues that they\u2019ve \u201cregressed\u201d over the past few weeks. \u201cThey haven\u2019t improved in any game mode. They looked worse in this Stage than they did the first. They\u2019re not that dominant team they were last year.\u201d OpTic\u2019s heartbreaking loss to ROKKR OpTic was looking hot throughout the Stage 2 Major, though it all came crashing down when the stars aligned for Accuracy. His shocking 1v3 clutch \u201cmight be one of the most unlucky situations of all time,\u201d according to Enable. For OpTic to lose in such a difficult way, \u201cit\u2019s gonna eat at [them].\u201dIf it wasn\u2019t for that unbelievable moment, \u201cwho knows how far they could have made it.\u201d MVPs of the Stage 2 Major He proved the doubters WRONG! \ud83d\udd25 @PacmanJT, @WorldsBedford & @Enable pick @Bance as their Stage 2 MVP!#CDL2021 Major 2 Review: https:\/\/t.co\/EoVSLe0LNv pic.twitter.com\/0NTByYBX9e \u2014 Dexerto Esports (@DexertoEsports) April 13, 2021 When it comes to the most impressive players in Stage 2, it\u2019s impossible to pick anyone outside of the Toronto lineup. For Enable\u2019s money, Insight \u201chas to be\u201d the MVP of the Major. \u201cTwo months ago he was in Challengers getting Top 64. Now, he just won the second Major in Cold War. He\u2019s been phenomenal, I don\u2019t think he\u2019s had a bad series.\u201d For Pacman, it was Bance who showed up and impressed more than anyone else. With a 1.44 KD against FaZe in the finals, he reached a level we\u2019ve rarely seen before. \u201cHe played phenomenally. I don\u2019t know what got into him but Bance deserves it. I just want him to stay at this high level of play.\u201d Craziest moments of the Stage 2 Major While Accuracy\u2019s 1v3 against OpTic just had to be a standout moment, it could be more than just a highlight for the reel, according to the Reverse Sweep experts. It was a \u201cheartbreaking loss.\u201d Enable is \u201cinterested to see how the future unfolds for OpTic.\u201d Meanwhile, Empire\u2019s ridiculous 0.01-second Control clutch against Minnesota is also another standout moment from the Major. \u201cThat was just a meltdown from Minnesota,\u201d Enable joked. If ROKKR closed it out there, the ripple effect might have resulted in a completely different Major. \u201cIf Dallas doesn\u2019t get that clutch, I think Empire loses to OpTic in the losers bracket. They don\u2019t get third\u2026 it just changes everything.\u201d Least Valuable Players of the Stage 2 Major As for the least impactful players of the event, Enable had a unique take. While he didn\u2019t actually play in the Stage 2 Major, SlasheR is his pick for LVP. \u201cWho would\u2019ve thought a team without SlasheR could be better?\u201d The LA Thieves \u201clooked like they were having fun on two days of practice. They played better without [him].\u201d Taking a different approach, Clayster may have had the worst showing of all according to Pacman. \u201cClay did not play well. That was actually a despicable performance [from NYSL]. They didn\u2019t show up.\u201d For all Reverse Sweep CDL news, head over to our dedicated page.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
