OpTic Karma proves he\u2019s just as good on PC with Battalion 1944 clutch MLG \/ Bulkhead InteractiveThree time Call of Duty World Champion Damon \u2018Karma\u2018 Barlow is best known as a console gaming legend, but his biggest fans know he\u2019s just as skilled with a keyboard and mouse too, as he demonstrated on rising shooter game Battalion 1944. The OpTic Gaming star has been a professional Call of Duty player for almost a decade with 24 major championship wins to his name, but he hasn\u2019t always been the \u201cstar\u201d player on a roster. Rather, Karma is known for his intelligent and creative play, smart decision-making and a level of consistency unparalleled by many of his fellow pros \u2013 and these skills easily transfer to any game he plays. Whether it\u2019s CS:GO, PUBG or even Fortnite Battle Royale, Barlow has always proven himself adept at grasping a game\u2019s fundamentals, and instantly perfecting them. The newest viral shooter on Twitch in 2019 is WWII-themed FPS \u2018Battalion 1944\u2018, which makes no attempts to hide the inspiration it took from Call of Duty and Counter-Strike\u2019s gameplay. Of course, this means it\u2019s well suited to Karma\u2019s skills, and it didn\u2019t take long for his teammates to have their minds blown, as he clutched a slick 1v2 with an excellent prediction, and perfect reactions and accuracy. It wasn\u2019t Karma\u2019s only insane play of the night either, as he showed off his sniping skills too. The CoD pro quickly worked out some sneaky lines of sight to line up the perfect shot to eliminate an opponent. Battalion\u2019s primary game mode is largely inspired by Call of Duty\u2019s \u2018Search & Destroy\u2019 and Counter-Strike\u2019s Bomb Defusal, so a veteran like Karma would have felt right at home. Former CS:GO pro shroud explained that he thinks Battalion is the perfect mix of COD and CS, making it the \u201cbest FPS out right now\u201d in his opinion. Clearly, there is something about Battalion that is appealing to these skilled players, and shroud himself even complimented its difficulty, skill gap and competitiveness. Karma is still competing full time in Call of Duty, so won\u2019t be able to dedicate the time he might like to Battalion, but even just playing casually, his expertise is apparent for all to see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
