OpTic Texas captured the title at the 2024 Call of Duty League Championship, bouncing back from a turbulent end to the regular season to hoist the ultimate trophy in CoD esports.

This victory marks the first time OpTic has won the end-of-season playoffs in the Call of Duty League era and the organisation��s second title at CoD Champs, their first since 2017.

Despite a rocky path leading to the championship, including a last-place finish at Major Four, OpTic Texas showed resilience.

Entering CoD Champs 2024 with many questions surrounding their performance, Anthony “Shotzzy” Cuevas-Castro and his team immediately displayed their Major Three form with a dominant sweep of Los Angeles Guerrillas in their first match.

They followed up with a reverse sweep of Los Angeles Thieves and a hard-fought 3-2 victory over New York Subliners, solidifying their spot in the grand final.

Subliners, the Major Four champions and winners of CoD Champs 2023, responded to their loss by beating Toronto Ultra, setting up a rematch with OpTic.

However, the grand final was less competitive than their earlier match, with OpTic earning a decisive 5-1 win in the best-of-nine series.

Notably, OpTic won two Search and Destroy maps in the grand final and posted a 5-2 record in the mode for the weekend, a significant turnaround from their 12-map Search ‘N’ Destroy losing streak heading into CoD Champs.

Shotzzy was named tournament MVP, posting a 1.27 overall K/D, the highest at the event.

Amer “Pred” Zulbeari, the first player from the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region to win CoD Champs, was close behind with a 1.24 overall K/D.

Brandon “Dashy” Otell, earning his first Champs ring, joined Kenneth “Kenny” Williams and Shotzzy, who now have two Champs wins each.

OpTic Texas�� victory was celebrated by thousands of passionate fans at the Credit Union of Texas Events Center in Allen, Texas.

The storyline was rich, as it was OpTic��s first grand final appearance in over seven years and a chance for Subliners to become the first organisation in CoD history to win back-to-back championships.

Following the win, Shotzzy was awarded the tournament MVP, and the crowd chanted ��superstar�� repeatedly.

Kenny expressed his joy, saying, ��It feels amazing to do it with another team. I love these boys. We worked for this. A lot of ups and downs, but overall, we won it, so I��m happy.��

With OpTic Texas’ victory, Kenny and Shotzzy join the elite group of players with more than one ring.

Meanwhile, Dashy and Pred celebrate their first-ever rings, and their coach Damon “Karma” Barlow adds to his impressive collection, earning his fourth ring overall��three as a player and one as a coach.

OpTic Texas�� incredible resilience proved their doubters wrong and set the stage for an exciting offseason ahead of Call of Duty Black Ops 6, as other organisations strategize to dethrone the Green Wall in 2025.

The Seattle Surge let go of their entire Call of Duty League (CDL) team on Monday, following the expiration of their contracts.

The North American esports organisation bid farewell to their CDL head coach, general manager, and team analyst in a series of posts just a day after the League’s free agency period started.

In a farewell address to the head coach, the Seattle Surge wrote, “For the last two seasons, we’ve been guided by the best in @FenixSRS. The passion you brought daily to this team was key to our development, and for that, we’re forever grateful. Thanks, coach.”

The organization also parted ways with their entire lineup, which included Amer “Pred” Zulbeari, Daunte “Sib” Gray, Makenzie “Mack” Kelley, and Lamar “Accuracy” Abedi. The quartet was responsible for the brightest period in the group’s history.

“Thank you, @Pred. Your presence was felt across the League the moment you entered it. We’re immensely proud to be a part of your journey and look forward to watching you dominate for years to come,” the Seattle Surge tweeted.

A second post addressed to Accuracy read, “Lamar, from the jump you’ve brought unmatched professionalism and showed us on a daily basis your complete commitment to the game. You’re an exceptional leader, and we’re glad to have followed. Thanks for everything, @AccuracyLA.”

The Seattle Surge also posted tweets directed at Sib and Mack, thanking them for their work ethic and for being great additions to the team.

The team’s general manager, John “Revan” Boble, announced earlier that “all of the contracts on the Surge” had come to a close, meaning he and the rest of the team were now free agents. He went on to ask interested parties to reach out to him.

Nicholas “Equuip” Viera also shared a farewell post on his Twitter where he revealed his contract was complete and thanked the Seattle Surge for his time with the team.

With all Surge players in free agency, Call of Duty fans are expecting teams to snatch them up in no time. Pred and Sid are set to join another organisation; however, while the former is rumoured to be on OpTic Texas’ watch list, there is currently no information about Sid’s next move.

According to reports from early in the season, OpTic Texas made serious attempts to buy Pred to replace Seth “Scump” Abner. The team claimed to have offered the Surge the “biggest buyout offer that has ever been” for Pred but were ultimately rejected.

The Surge opted to keep the player for the rest of the season but were unable to achieve as much success as they did in Major One, where the team placed second.

Accuracy and Mack will likely remain in free agency longer than the rest of the players. The duo bore the blame for most of the Surge’s disappointing performances during the season.

With Accuracy, Pred, Mack, and Sib, the Surge were able to reach a second-place finish in the Major One. The team also won the Major Three in 2022 and finished in third place during the 2022 CDL Championship. The Surge’s most recent achievement was a fourth-place finish in the 2023 CDL Championship in June.

Most teams have let go of several talented players already, meaning that the Seattle Surge will have little issue finding suitable replacements for their currently empty roster before the conclusion of the offseason.
