After the match, Scump joined the CDL\u2019s broadcast desk to speak about the victory, and he rounded the postgame interview off with a few words directed at Crimsix, his former OpTic Gaming teammate who can now be considered a rival. \u201cI have one thing to say,\u201d he said. \u201cYo Crimsix, you have to take that poster down man.

In a recent video, Crimsix revealed that he decided to hang that poster on his bedroom wall so that every morning he would see it and become instantly motivated to compete. \u201cSeth and Matt might not see me every day, but I see them,\u201d he said in the video. \u201cI literally wake up, walk outside of my bedroom, see them, and become instantly motivated. Any thought of doing anything else other than playing goes out the window when I see that stupid [censored] poster.\u201d Read More: CDL to stream exclusively on YouTube Gaming – The fact that he mentioned both Scump and FormaL explains why they were both gesturing so demonstrably after winning, as it\u2019s now clear that their yelling was likely directed at Crimsix, rather than the whole Empire team. (Segment begins at 4:56 mark for mobile users) Huntsmen take down Empire in CDL\u2019s first-ever match The series started with Hardpoint on Azhir Cave, which Chicago took 250-209 to claim the first-ever map win in the Call of Duty League\u2019s young history. https:\/\/twitter.com\/CODLeague\/status\/1220849882409373701 Dallas, however, struck back quickly and convincingly, winning 6-1 on Arklov Peak Search & Destroy to tie the series at 1-1. Unfortunately for them, though, this was the first and only map they\u2019d win all series. Thanks to a dominant showing from FormaL in the first half of the Hackney Yard Domination, Huntsmen won 202-157 to go up 2-1 in the series. In the fourth and final map, the T2P duo of Scump and FormaL popped off towards the end to win the Gun Runner Hardpoint 250-173 and seal the match victory.
