With rosters finalized heading into the final weeks of play as we approach the CWL Finals, there are a lot of eyes on the controversial move of Huke from Envy to Splyce. Both FaZe Clan\u2018s Matthew \u2018Skrapz\u2019 Marshall and 100 Thieves\u2018 James \u2018Crowder\u2019 Crowder expressed shock over the decision, and numerous fans also were confused by the move. Envy CEO responds Team Envy\u2019s CEO and owner Mike Rufail didn\u2019t take kindly to these remarks, and went after the Call of Duty pros who were baffled by the move. \u201cCall of Duty professional gamers commenting on business dealings with 0 experience and 0 continued education beyond high school,\u201d he tweeted. \u201cName a more iconic duo.\u201d Call of Duty professional gamers commenting on business dealings with 0 experience and probably 0 continued education beyond high school. Name a more iconic duo. \u2014 Mike Rufail (@hastr0) June 22, 2019 The story going around is that Splyce was able to pick up Huke for free, something that Rufail has flat denied, and called the assumptions ignorant. \u201cFirst of all, it wasn\u2019t for $0,\u201d he tweeted. \u201cSo you can already see where the assumptions are just totally amateur and ignorant.\u201d First of all, it wasn\u2019t for $0. So you can already see where the assumptions are just totally amateur and ignorant. \u2014 Mike Rufail (@hastr0) June 22, 2019 Rufail argued that while the pros are good at what they do, it\u2019s different when they begin to talk about things they don\u2019t fully understand. \u201cYou won\u2019t ever see me complaining about Call of Duty pros competing on Call of Duty because that\u2019s what they\u2019re good at,\u201d he said. \u201cIt becomes a different situation when they start babbling about things they don\u2019t understand the depths of.\u201d You won\u2019t ever see me complaining about Call of Duty pros competing on Call of Duty because that\u2019s what they\u2019re good at.

Clayster was part of the podcast where the pros discussed the move. \u201cC\u2019mon man, we talked about roster changes in a CoD show,\u201d he tweeted to Rufail. \u201cIt\u2019s not your responsibility to divulge more info, but it\u2019s also perfectly okay for us to speculate. From the outside looking in, it seems odd, granted we did try and come up with options\/reasons to make it beneficial.\u201d Before things were able to escalate further, Rufail said he was just chiming in and wasn\u2019t overly offended by anything. You know me well enough to know that I\u2019m just chiming in and I\u2019m not overly offended. Just keeping things balanced while I allegedly smoke the good stuff. \u2014 Mike Rufail (@hastr0) June 22, 2019 Huke is a major pickup for Spylce going into the home stretch so while some might feel the move to get him was controversial, it was a big one nonetheless. The CWL Finals take place in on Miami July 19-21. In the meantime, Huke will have plenty of time to get used to his new teammates.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Envy CEO blasts critics following Huke&#8217;s controversial Splyce transfer Call of Duty World League roster change period, leading many to question what they were doing, and even accusing them of giving away Huke for free.
