Here\u2019s how Ian \u2018Enable\u2019 Wyatt, Jonathan \u2018Pacman\u2019 Tucker &#038; Katie Bedford expect the week to shake out. After going through a Stage 2, Week 2 review, the Reverse Sweep crew dives into the upcoming week and its biggest storylines. From the fall of OpTic Gaming to the rise of the Seattle Surge and Minnesota ROKKR, the narratives are juicy and fans are sure to have their thirsts quenched. But, it all has to start with a highlight on the biggest storyline of the Stage \u2014 how OpTic fell to 0-2 and near the bottom of Group B. Enable, Pacman and Bedford had some choice words for the seemingly crumbling Green Wall. OpTic in Group B Losers? With Bedford noting that OpTic will start in the Major\u2019s Losers Bracket should they lose one of their matches this week, Enable has a simple response: \u201cThat\u2019s scary.\u201d Joining in, Pacman confirmed that this is a pivotal chance for OpTic. To stave off the Losers Bracket, Chicago needs to beat the upsurging Seattle Surge and 2020 CDL Champions Dallas Empire. Pacman thinks it\u2019s possible, but hard to imagine since they just played \u201cas bad a week as you can possibly have\u201d in Stage 2, Week 2. The new contenders: Minnesota &#038; Seattle \u201cObviously we\u2019ve been praising Minnesota for the week that they had, and Seattle as well, but we still don\u2019t know where they stand.\u201d As Enable explains, the LA Guerrillas Home Series is the chance to put Minnesota and Seattle\u2019s rises to the test. Seattle faces OpTic and then the two new, hopeful contenders face each other, offering a unique opportunity to see just how dangerous these teams can be. Spicy takes: time to fix the LA teams With Bedford asking which CDL teams need to make changes, Enable and Pacman agreed on the LA Guerrillas and Thieves. As to why, Enable has a simple explanation: \u201cLA teams need to be performing, they have to.\u201d Read more: Top 10 Plays | CDL Stage 2 Week 2 &#8211; Pacman takes it a step further, claiming that the \u201cGuerrillas are already becoming synonymous with trash\u201d and that whatever the Thieves are doing, \u201cit\u2019s not working.\u201d The gang agrees that the LA teams need to make changes, but jump into a wide variety of routes that could be taken. The ones to watch: Prestinni and Dashy \u201cIf Prestinni\u2019s playing well \u2026 Seattle is going to be in Winners Finals.\u201d Noting how important Preston \u2018Prestinni\u2019 Sanderson has been to Seattle\u2019s performance, Pacman dubs him the man behind their road to the Winners Finals. Rocking a ridiculous K\/D this stage and enjoying his brother\u2019s internet, the Surge player is easily a top player to watch. As for Enable, he contends that the most interesting player to keep an eye on is Brandon \u2018Dashy\u2019 Otell. The young star had a horrible week as OpTic went 0-2, but Enable thinks that \u201che\u2019s going to grind his ass off and he\u2019s not gonna let it happen again.\u201d Boldest predictions: Seattle, Minnesota and Ultra in Winners To wrap things up, Bedford asks Enable and Pacman for their boldest predictions. Unsurprisingly, both agree that the Surge and ROKKR have the potential to pull out of the week with strong-enough records to make the Winners Bracket. Read more: Enable: Dashy is playing horrible! &#8211; Switching things up, though, Pacman delivers an interesting take \u2014 that Toronto can go 2-0 and make the Winners Bracket. Citing their matchups against the London Royal Ravens and a New York Subliners team that Enable reports is scrimming with rookie Paco \u2018HyDra\u2019 Rusiewiez, Pacman argues Toronto could surprise people during the Guerrillas Home Series. But, he explains it better than we could, so you can check out the full preview show!
