OpTic Texas players slam Minnesota ROKKR after controversial CDL Major 1 forfeit CDLOpTic Texas pros have slammed Minnesota ROKKR after their first Call of Duty League match of the Modern Warfare 2 season ended in a controversial forfeit. The Modern Warfare 2 Call of Duty League season officially began with CDL Major 1\u2019s Opening Weekend on December 2. Wins for both LA rosters and Boston Breach were overshadowed by a controversial second match, which saw fan favorites OpTic Texas forfeit to Minnesota ROKKR after a SAE scorestreak bug affected Cammy. Although the Control match was nearly complete and OpTic looked set to secure the win, a CDL ruling instructed both teams to replay the match. OpTic refused and as a result forfeited the match. OpTic Texas forfeits CDL Major 1 match amid Minnesota ROKKR replay controversy In the aftermath, the team\u2019s stars have criticized their opponents for refusing to accept that the match was already lost, as well as the League\u2019s ruling that instructed them to replay Round 5. CoD legend Scump described the match as \u201cover\u201d and explained that it will be difficult to \u201cregain\u201d ahead of future Opening Weekend matches. \u201cWe got cheesed out of a map win heading into a good side Hardpoint,\u201d he said. \u201cI definitely won\u2019t be regained tomorrow.\u201d Teammate Dashy was even more scathing, hitting out at Minnesota for being \u201cweirdos\u201d and labelling them as \u201ccowards\u201d. \u201cI don\u2019t know what I\u2019m more p*ssed about,\u201d he said. \u201cMN being f**king weirdos about the situation or the League actually buying that BS from that camp.\u201d He even suggested it may have been a ploy from ROKKR to force a replay, saying: \u201cWait hold up we have ZERO chance of winning this game? Lemme just call in this SAE real quick!!\u201d iLLeY also criticized the decision, describing it as \u201cpathetic\u201d and lamenting the League\u2019s comments in the incident\u2019s aftermath. The ROKKR released a five-minute interview with Cammy, the player who was affected by the SAE bug. He explained that the build of the game prevents players from un-equipping the SAE scorestreak and that the issues were \u201cout of our control\u201d. He also apologized to fans for the way the match ended and said that all players want to win or lose fairly. The CDL\u2019s GM, Daniel Tsay, said the situation \u201csucks for everyone\u201d and that he wishes the game could have been settled differently. \u201cWish the ROKKR-OpTic match hadn\u2019t ended in a forfeit,\u201d he tweeted. \u201cI know some people will agree and some people will disagree with the replay round call made. We needed to apply league rules, but no one wants to see a matchup get to where it did. Sucks for everyone.\u201d Regardless, the Greenwall will continue to feel short-changed and, as a result of refusing to adhere to the CDL\u2019s replay instructions, begin the season with a 0-1 record.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
