While Chicago Huntsmen sit in second place overall in the 2020 Call of Duty League season, recent Top 4 finishes have paved the way for a roster shuffle. The squad has allegedly been \u201cbickering\u201d for weeks as they struggled to string top-tier performances together again. This in-house drama has come to a head in the form of Gunless being benched ahead of the Florida Home Series. According to the now-benched Huntsmen star, however, the new roster move was a shock to him as much as anyone else. After hearing of the news, Gunless booted up his Twitch stream and reacted to his newfound substitute position. After months of teaming with \u2018T2P\u2019 duo Seth \u2018Scump\u2019 Abner and Matthew \u2018Formal\u2019 Piper, as well as Alec \u2018Arcitys\u2019 Sanderson and Dylan \u2018Envoy\u2019 Hannon, Gunless said he was left shocked after being kept in the dark for Chicago\u2019s plans. \u201cI don\u2019t know how I benched myself. I didn\u2019t even know I was benched until today,\u201d he explained as substitute player Jordon \u2018General\u2019 General filled his shoes in the Huntsmen\u2019s scrims on May 4. \u201cNobody wanted to say a word to me. Ain\u2019t that sad,\u201d the benched star continued. \u201cThe only reason I learned that everything was happening was from other people.\u201d \u201cNone of my teammates wanted to say a word to me on what was happening. Not one of them had the f***ing cojones to send a text message.\u201d Hopping straight back into things and scrimming on-stream with a new roster, Gunless has already been mixing it up with the likes of Ian \u2018Enable\u2019 Wyatt, Trei \u2018Trei\u2019 Morris, and Renato \u2018Saints\u2019 Forza \u2014 all substitutes for their respective CDL teams. Rounding out the scrim team is Jordan \u2018JKap\u2019 Kaplan, after he too was benched by OpTic Gaming LA in favor of Chino ahead of the upcoming Florida series. Official word is yet to come from the Huntsmen organization on the matter, and only time will tell if Gunless\u2019 squadmates will try to amend the situation before their next CDL appearance. If any teams are down to scrim vs me @Enable @Gunless @Trei @SaintsNato in the next few days, hit any of us up. Team Pine is trying to get our reps in and will be going hard \u2014 Jordan Kaplan (@JKap415) May 5, 2020 While the Florida series kicks off this weekend, the Huntsmen aren\u2019t set to compete until Seattle\u2019s event on May 22. The squad now sits 20 points behind the Empire after watching their Dallas rivals claim top-spot at their own Chicago event.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gunless slams Huntsmen teammates after Chicago benches CDL star Chicago HuntsmenPeirce \u2018Gunless\u2019 Hillman has slammed his Huntsmen teammates after they allegedly left him in the dark on the decision to remove him from Chicago\u2019s CDL roster ahead of the upcoming Seattle Home Series later this month.
