OpTic have been a dominant force throughout this season of the Call of Duty League, despite a fairly shaky start. They won Major 1 in emphatic fashion, taking down 2021 world champions Atlanta FaZe with a convincing 5-2 victory, before qualifying for Major 2 with a flawless 5-0 record. While they\u2019re the unanimous number one team in the game right now, there\u2019s no telling what could happen if another team turns up, or OpTic have an off-day \u2014 but Karma says there\u2019s one main thing the team should be worried about at the Major 2 LAN event. During a Twitch stream on March 30, Karma spoke about how great OpTic Texas are right now, but warned that, in particular, divisive map Bocage could be a problem for them in both Hardpoint and Search &#038; Destroy.

I feel like it\u2019s just a 50\/50 map.\u201d He went on to add that the map is especially difficult if you get it as the first map in the series, and it\u2019s \u201cjust scary for anyone.\u201d OpTic are heavy favorites to take the trophy at the Stage 2 Major, with teams like Atlanta FaZe and London Royal Ravens behind them. And we can\u2019t imagine they\u2019re much worried about Bocage, no matter how mixy it gets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Karma warns OpTic Texas of \u201cscariest thing\u201d that could cost them at CDL Major 2 MLG\/Call of Duty LeagueThree-time Call of Duty world champion and former OpTic dynasty member Damon \u2018Karma\u2019 Barlow has explained what he believes to be the \u201cscariest thing\u201d for OpTic Texas at CDL Major 2.
