While many think that both rosters improved, some argue that one team \u2018won\u2019 or \u2018lost\u2019 the trade. CWL caster, Clint \u201cMaven\u201d Evans has been known to be a supporter of FormaL \u2013 and with good reason, given his consistent MVP like performances in recent years \u2013 but some may suggest he has a touch of favoritism to his opinion. Of course there is no problem with that, but new OpTic player Methodz, who it has become known was not necessarily the first choice replacement for the semi-retired Damon \u201cKarma\u201d Barlow, has hilariously mocked Maven\u2019s favor of FormaL. Due to his new position on the team, there is certainly some pressure for Methodz to prove he is the player able to help OpTic win championships, despite some peoples doubts. Maven, on a recent episode of Trading Shots, had this to say. \u201cUp to this point, except for the most recent tournament, it\u2019s been a kind of a three [SMG] meta for most maps, four even on some. So, [OpTic] wanted to get another aggressive strong sub. They were not able to do that, and you land with Methodz. Now, this is where I\u2019m split, and ultimately why I\u2019m overall going to grade it a B. Because if you are Methodz, could there be a role issue if the game picks up? Absolutely. But right now, two AR\u2019s is working out with the current meta so you\u2019re going to feel good there.\u201d So in fairness, Maven wasn\u2019t all doom and gloom about the new OpTic roster, but he did grade the Luminosity roster an A and that they won the trade, saying that FormaL would be out to \u201cremind people he is god.\u201d Methodz, when asked to do his impersonation of Maven, had this to say: We will of course see who is correct as both teams face off in Division B of the CWL Pro League, with matches beginning May 29th. Luminosity otherwise remained unchanged, meaning they held on to top SMG player Johnathon \u201cJohn\u201d Perez, who had been heavily linked with a move to OpTic. Division A matches will be up first though, with matches starting on May 15th.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OpTic Gaming\u2019s Methodz Does Hilarious Impression of CWL Caster Maven\u2019s Love For Luminosity\u2019s FormaL Dexerto\/MLGThe OpTic Gaming and Luminosity roster swap involving Matthew \u201cFormaL\u201d Piper and Sam \u201cOctane\u201d Larew has caused a difference of opinion between fans, players and casters.
