There\u2019s no denying Dashy had a tumultuous start to his run in the league. Coming off of an exceptional year in Black Ops 4, he wound up as part of the OpTic Gaming LA roster. Despite being rotated off of the starting lineup partway through, Dashy\u2019s first squad ended with a Top 6 finish in 2020. However, it\u2019s also no secret that Dashy never truly felt at home throughout the year. He tried to join the Huntsmen before the league kicked off and even threatened to bench himself after being locked to OGLA. With former teammates putting him on blast for his behavior during the year, it seemed obvious he\u2019d be jumping ship. Now officially back where he wanted to be all along, Dashy has rejoined former teammate Seth \u2018Scump\u2019 Abner for the 2021 season. Though before Black Ops Cold War arrives, H3CZ has laid out some rules for his latest signee, assuring that the upcoming season will be a \u2018transformative\u2019 experience. Right out of the gate on the September 15 episode of The NRG Duo podcast, Dashy\u2019s announcement was brought up. Without hesitation, H3CZ looked to address concerns in the community after hearing of Dashy\u2019s behavioral issues throughout 2020. \u201cThis year is going to be a year of transformation for Dashy,\u201d he said. \u201cWith the rumors [in the 2020 season] of Dashy being late, I made it a point to speak to him and his mum at the same time and explain the situation. This is a franchise league in which tens of millions of dollars are going in as an investment. It\u2019s a more professional league and we expect everyone to be professionals.\u201d This implies that the Huntsmen won\u2019t be accepting any tardiness in the upcoming season. A step in a more professional direction than Dashy\u2019s first run with H3CZ back in 2018. \u201cOn the first go around, when it was Dashy, TJ, Crimsix, and Scump, the kids played a lot,\u201d he said. \u201cThey were always late.\u201d Heading into the Black Ops Cold War season, now is the perfect time for Dashy to break the mold and \u201cprove himself,\u201d according to H3CZ. \u201cNot just to the fans or his teammates, but more importantly, to me. I\u2019m not gonna put up with no bulls***.\u201d The relevant topic begins at the 7:01 mark below. \u201cEven today when we were [filming] some content, if someone didn\u2019t show up there would have been some cash missing from their paychecks. It\u2019s time to grow up.\u201d From showing up to practice on time, to general behavior, it\u2019s clear that Dashy will need to give it his all in order to stay on the good side of H3CZ. With 2021 reverting to 4v4 competition, Dashy is far from the only player finding a new home.
