H3CZ reveals the city he originally wanted in the Call of Duty League In a recent episode of his Eavesdrop podcast, NRG Esports co-CEO Hector \u2018H3CZ\u2019 Rodriguez has revealed which city he originally wanted to represent in the upcoming Call of Duty franchised league. The Eavesdrop podcast brings in some of the biggest names in esports to discuss their careers, their paths to success, and any of the industry events occurring at the time. It\u2019s often a place where these personalities can speak more plainly about things that have happened, squash rumors or, sometimes, allow them to spread previously unknown news, and that\u2019s exactly what happened H3CZ hosted Dexerto on the Eavesdrop. While discussing the upcoming franchised Call of Duty League, H3CZ is questioned on whether he has seen more fanfare from Chicago \u2013 the city he and his team will be representing \u2013 than in other parts of the world. The former OpTic Gaming mastermind said that it\u2019s not been strictly limited to Chicago, but North America has been his biggest export for merchandise and ticket sales, followed by England, France, and Australia. He then revealed that Chicago wasn\u2019t the city he was originally gunning for, saying: \u201cChicago was my second option. My first option was Las Vegas but that wasn\u2019t available to be picked up, I don\u2019t know why.\u201d (Timestamp 1:19:15 for mobile users) This could come as a shock to some OpTic fans, who have known H3CZ for much of his gaming career as the CEO of OpTic Gaming. The organization was born out of, and became successful on the back of its Chicago roots, with each iteration of the OpTic house located in and around the city. Why Vegas wasn\u2019t an eligible spot raises some questions, but it seems like it could have been written in the stars for the Chicago spot to go to Hector given his history in the Windy City. For what it\u2019s worth, they already look to be one of the most popular teams in the Call of Duty League.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
