FormaL explains how Chicago Huntsmen will build the next CoD dynasty YouTube: CDLWith the dawn of the Call of Duty League, twelve star-studded teams have a chance to stake their claim as the new kings. In Matthew \u2018FormaL\u2019 Piper\u2019s eyes, however, there\u2019s only one that will claim the crown \u2013 the Chicago Huntsmen. FormaL is no stranger to winning. In 2017, he was crowned world champion, and named the tournament\u2019s MVP. Though OpTic Gaming was on the verge of a stunning collapse months later, their leading star was at the top of his game. The 25-year-old\u2019s departure from the Green Wall saw the shock separation of the fabled \u2018T2P\u2019 duo, Seth \u2018Scump\u2019 Abner and himself. Now, that legendary combo \u2013 alongside a cast of other stars \u2013 are ready to retake Call of Duty by storm. At least, that\u2019s Formal\u2019s belief as the CDL finally rolls into high gear at the launch weekend in Minnesota on January 24. In his eyes, the Huntsmen have a very real possibility of repeating OpTic\u2019s past glories, especially considering their roster. \u201cThe team is so well-rounded, and we have an unreal amount of talent under the banner, so all the pieces are there,\u201d FormaL told CDL media ahead of the season opener. \u201cWe have the skill to be the best team in the Call of Duty League, by far.\u201d According to the champ, the lineup Hector \u2018H3CZ\u2019 Rodriguez has assembled in Chicago is one of the most well-rounded rosters he\u2019d ever played on. Now, if the Huntsmen can reignite the fire of the \u2018T2P\u2019 duo, they\u2019ll be unstoppable. \u201cIt was kind of crazy, the idea of reuniting me and Scump, and then bringing along the other three,\u201d FormaL admitted. \u201cMe and Seth have won like everything there is to win, and we want to put [the rest of the team] through that process now.\u201d Alongside the re-emergence of one of esports\u2019 deadliest duos, FormaL believes Chicago\u2019s key to success will be channeling the raw hunger from young stars Peirce \u2018Gunless\u2019 Hillman, Alec \u2018Arcitys\u2019 Sanderson, and Dylan \u2018Envoy\u2019 Hannon. If they can manage that, Chicago have the chance to rival what FormaL believes to be the greatest dynasty of all \u2013 OpTic Gaming. \u201cIf you look at dynasties, I think the OpTic Gaming dynasty might be considered the best in Call of Duty, but I think the OpTic dynasty fell apart because of egos, and two of the biggest were definitely myself and Seth\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019ve been on Huntsmen now for two months, and I think now we have a better grasp on how we should be competitive with each other. Over the next few years we might have a brand new dynasty that\u2019s just formed, and we\u2019re going to see how far we can push ourselves, and see if we can make that happen.\u201d For mobile readers, the related segment begins at 7:59 in the video below. FormaL\u2019s first chance to back up his beliefs come on January 24, when all twelve franchise squads descend on the Minneapolis Armory. The Huntsmen are set to make league history in the season opener against the Dallas Empire. Chicago also get the chance to reunite Scump and FormaL with their old banners later the same weekend, when they face the new-look OpTic Gaming Los Angeles franchise squad. That clash will be held until the event\u2019s final day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
