The announcement from the CWL that CoD esports would be shifting to a 5v5 format rather than 4v4 has suddenly expedited the ongoing Rostermania, with both Red Reserve and Team Envy already making official moves. And OpTic Gaming could be next, as Crimsix has hinted that Methodz is off the team \u2013 despite roster rules stipulating that teams must retain three members of their roster from last year\u2019s Stage Two, to ensure pool play at the first event. After this roster rule was introduced, some believed that OpTic would be forced to keep Methodz, or else lose their guaranteed pool play spot at CWL Vegas (the first event of the Black Ops 4 season). However, Crimisix\u2019 first Reddit comment seemed to suggest that this rule wouldn\u2019t change their plans for dropping Methodz, stating that he would \u201crather go through open [bracket]\u201d, than keep Methodz on the roster. And this wasn\u2019t all, as Crimsix later made another comment to confirm that he was indeed referring to dropping Methodz from the roster. When another user said \u201cAll it confirms is that Methodz is off the team\u201d, Crimsix replied with a simple ^ , giving affirmation. Many OpTic fans are hopeful to see the return of three time world champion Damon \u2018Karma\u2019 Barlow, but comments previously made by Karma himself seemed to rule it out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OpTic Gaming\u2019s Crimsix all but confirms Methodz being dropped from CoD roster Rumors of Anthony \u2018Methodz\u2019 Zinni departure from the OpTic Gaming Call of Duty roster have been circling for some time now, and his teammate Ian \u2018Crimsix\u2019 Porter has hinted strongly towards it in a series of Reddit comments.
