The carnage surrounding OpTic Texas\u2019 move to replace Dashy looks finally to have ended, even if the acrimony it generated has not. The Greenwall eventually settled on Huke to replace Dashy, but only after failing in moves for Arcitys and Pred. Pred has previously commented that he wanted the move and \u201ceverything\u201d was attempted to make it happen, but it ultimately wasn\u2019t possible. Seattle Surge, for their part, have been widely criticized by OpTic Texas. That only intensified in the January 13 episode of The Process, in which H3CZ spoke at length about how \u201cdisappointing\u201d he found their conduct. H3CZ blasts Seattle Surge for handling of Pred saga In his opinion, OpTic Texas were \u201ctugged along\u201d by the Surge. He explained that after a move for LA Guerrilla\u2019s Arcitys failed to materialize, OpTic wanted Pred, whom they consider an \u201cexplosive\u201d player. \u201cWhen I spoke to the business leadership team at Seattle Surge on a Friday we were told one price,\u201d he said. \u201cBy Wednesday that price had increased, so we met that price again. On Friday we met that price again after it went up a third time.\u201d After meeting all the inflated prices, the Surge apparently told OpTic that they would not let Pred leave, despite previously indicating their openness to a move. Timestamp: 29:45 \u201cThe fact that we got tugged along for a week is what I don\u2019t appreciate,\u201d H3CZ continued. \u201cI don\u2019t do business that way and I am surprised they do business like that\u2026 What I don\u2019t appreciate is just not being told the truth from the beginning. If they\u2019d have been like \u2018hey we love Pred he\u2019s not going anywhere\u2019\u2026 I would have understood.\u201d The move for Pred came about because OpTic Texas believed he would have \u201cfit well\u201d into their system, but it ultimately did not happen because of Seattle\u2019s refusal to let him go. H3CZ finished: \u201cHe wanted to join. That\u2019s a fact. Everybody had agreed to everything and then at the last minute the rug got pulled from under us. As much as I want to say I understand I just can\u2019t bring myself to say that. It is what it is and now we know how they operate.\u201d CDL Major 2 began with qualifiers on January 13. OpTic Texas will be looking to improve on their Major 1 finish, where they crashed out in 9-12th.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OpTic Texas blast Seattle Surge\u2019s conduct after failed Pred CDL transfer YT: OpTic Gaming \/ Twitter: Seattle SurgeOpTic Texas\u2019 H3CZ has blasted fellow Call of Duty League franchise Seattle Surge for their handling of OpTic\u2019s move for Pred, claiming it was \u201cdisappointing\u201d and that OpTic were \u201ctugged along\u201d.
