Parasite blames fellow pros for lack of CoD offers in frustrated \u201crant\u201d MLGCall of Duty veteran Chris \u2018Parasite\u2018 Duarte has offered his own explanation for why he\u2019s faced a lack of opportunities to compete at the highest level over the past few years, going into franchising. With Call of Duty esports transitioning to a franchised league starting next season, a lot of players are scurrying around to secure a spot for themselves in one of the 12 confirmed participating organizations. While the best players in the world have very likely been barraged with lucrative offers from many teams, there are still some who haven\u2019t seen nearly as many takers. One such player is Parasite, a longtime competitor who\u2019s been around the scene for nearly a decade, but who many believe is on the down-slope of his career at this point.

I\u2019ve also performed consistently for years and adapted to every single situation and title I\u2019ve ever played plus ethic I\u2019d bring to a roster.\u201d He then went on to slight essentially all of the rosters he\u2019s played on since leaving FaZe Red in the early parts of 2015. \u201cHaven\u2019t had a team full of capable players since FaZe Red back in 2015, when I got third at Champs and performed second or third best on my team, if you\u2019re considering K\/D and objective statistics. To then being dropped and spiraling bad team to team.\u201d He wrapped up the rant with a third tweet, which may have been the most telling of them all, revealing his lack of offers moving forward. \u201cNo one had contacted me besides the offer that fell through,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s been very had and stressful to see a decade of work go to waste because you can\u2019t jar the minds of your peers.\u201d While there is no reason to doubt that he has become a better teammate, there is no denying that he hasn\u2019t come close to tasting success on the main stage over the past several years.
