Crimsix responds after disappointing start to ESL R1 career at IEM Katowice FaZe ClanCrimsix\u2019s first performance for FaZe ESL R1 got off to a bad start and now the legendary CoD player has opened up about what went wrong. Ian \u2018Crimsix\u2019 Porter shocked the Call of Duty community on February 7 when it was announced that he had joined FaZe as a professional sim racer. Arguably the greatest CoD player of all time, Porter retired from competitive play in the post-Vanguard offseason, and IEM Katowice marked his first LAN appearance as a driver. At the end of the day, he finished in last place for his round and 30 seconds behind the leader. Crimsix explains why he wasn\u2019t surprised by poor finish at IEM Katowice Day 1 Crim took to Twitter to explain exactly what happened out on the track. \u201cThat result is to be expected,\u201d he said. \u201cTomorrow might be worse due to only having 3 days of practice back on sim racing. \u201cI\u2019m probably a meme at this point, but I\u2019m having so much fun it doesn\u2019t matter to me. I think if I didn\u2019t spin like an idiot I probably would have finished 15 seconds behind the leader.\u201d He noted that he was sticking around to watch his \u201cmuch faster\u201d teammates, clearly taking the situation in stride. Porter\u2019s lack of practice is partly due to a delayed flight, as he arrived in Katowice for Media Day but didn\u2019t have time to do anything else. \u201cIt won\u2019t matter much, since I\u2019m amongst sim racing gods, but looking forward to the challenge of reaching them by the end of the season nonetheless,\u201d he tweeted prior to race day. His first performance might not have gone the way he hoped, but as a three-time Call of Duty World Champion, Crimsix knows what it takes to win and he\u2019ll certainly be making adjustments by the end of the season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
