OpTic Gaming\u2019s Scump reveals major role change during CWL Pro League With OpTic Gaming currently playing without Brandon \u2018Dashy\u2019 Otell due to travel issues, Seth \u2018Scump\u2019 Abner has shed light on a change of roles on the team for the CWL Pro League. When it was first announced that Tommy \u2018ZooMaa\u2019 Paparatto would be stepping in for Dashy during the first two weeks of the CWL Pro League, many wondered how the SMG player would slot into OpTic\u2019s lineup. While the team managed to get through their first two matches with a 1-1 record without changing their roles, that will change when OpTic Gaming takes the stage on February 6. In a tweet posted a few hours before their match against Evil Geniuses, Scump confirmed that he\u2019d be running the Maddox instead of Saug 9mm during their next match. The move is one that many had speculated would eventually come since both Scump and ZooMaa usually run SMGs. With Scump now moving over to the Maddox, ZooMaa will likely able to move more freely in the role he\u2019s most comfortable in. Since Scump announced the move on Twitter, it didn\u2019t take long for Evil Geniuses\u2019 Adam \u2018GodRx\u2019 Brown to notice it and reply, letting Scump and OpTic know that they\u2019d be ready for the change. Given OpTic Gaming\u2019s somewhat slow start to the CWL Pro League, the move should only help them get into a rhythm during the opening week. After beginning the Pro League with a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Midnight Esports, OpTic were almost reverse swept by UYU on February 5 before holding on with a 3-2 win. The move seemingly paid off against Evil Geniuses, as OpTic picked up an easy 3-0 sweep. OpTic Gaming will close out their week against Team Reciprocity on February 7 at 1:30pm PST \/ 4:30pm EST \/ 9:30pm GMT.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
