OpTic’s Crimsix puts streaming scrims on hold due to toxic Twitch chat OpTic Gaming Call of Duty professional Ian \u2018Crimsix\u2019 Porter has taken a break from streaming the team\u2019s scrims, due to the \u201cvibes\u201d coming from his Twitch chat. Long time fans of Call of Duty will know about the changes in streaming scrims over the past few years, as teams often refrained from doing so due to fears of strategies being copied and countered. However, in general, the Black Ops 4 season has seen a return to pros streaming their scrims, with many notable players such as Crimsix and Seth \u2018Scump\u2019 Abner streaming scrim matches regularly. Off the back of OpTic Gaming\u2019s recent struggles, typified in their disappointing 9-12th finish at CWL Fort Worth back in March, there has been an emphasis from OpTic\u2019s players to get back \u2018on the grind\u2019, as they look to return to the heights of earlier this season, when they won CWL Las Vegas. In a March 29 tweet, Crimsix appears to have indicated that his Twitch chat is negative in their responses to OpTic\u2019s scrims, stating that there would not be any streams of scrims as he is \u201cnot really liking the vibes in chat recently\u201d. No streams today bros, not really liking the vibes in chat recently, and we really need to go over some stuff in HP. Most likely will be live for 10s tonight! pic.twitter.com\/f19jZCa9qG \u2014 Ian (@OpTic_Crimsix) March 29, 2019 He adds that his OpTic team, consisting of himself, Scump, Brandon \u2018Dashy\u2019 Otell, Damon \u2018Karma\u2019 Barlow and Thomas \u2018TJHaLy\u2019 Haly, have work to do on their Hardpoint. Hence, it is likely a combination of the desire to keep these in-game adjustments private and the negative Twitch chat that encouraged him not to stream. Whether they are streamed or not, it is likely we will hear about a lot of scrim matches in the weeks to come, as CoD teams gear up for the next few weeks of the CWL Pro League. Up next for OpTic is the cross-division matches, facing off against a struggling Enigma6 on April 1, as they look to get back to better form.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
