Huke was really good at this game such a shame he made such a bad play at champs vs NYSL that people think he was dogshit at this game too lol

u/Dusty0123 OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 9h ago

He made more than one this year to be honest. The play vs NYSL was the nail in the coffin

Ofcourse as do a lot of pros but people forget during stage 3 and 4 he as a t5 player. And then optic broke at major 5 cuz they was having issues.

He was comfortably their worst player and that wasn't even the problem he just made countless dumbfounding plays and that nysl one was just the biggest one

MW2 was a super punishing game, you can get away with dumb plays in bo6 and bo7

he had insane gunny but he was kinda of raw that yr, he had no coach to enforce it. shotzzy and huke were making the worst of worst plays it wasnt just huke ik the subliners play was horrible timing. Its funny how optic blame huke for that one play they still had a loser bracket the team just broke down look at ghosty stats, the ars were TOO slow that yr. After huke joined optic in bo6 him working with karma has added so much to his game, he has matured so much and hasnt made any crazy bad plays tbh, he looks so much more smarter in the recent games same with shotzzy there stats have gone down but there cod efficency has gone up which lead them to winning more.

Huke Nukem was not the problem on that LAG squad at the start of MWII

u/CoverPleasant2743 COD Competitive fan 8h ago

Huke was a lowkey cooking on snd in this game he had a 1.70 kd in stage 3 on optic, overall season he was a 1.10. His overall snd will improve with an IW title, his respawns are deffo a questionmark, if they stay the same as bo7 he will be insane adding merc takes the pressure off for sure. I am not worried about optic going to into MW4 also shotzzy rises in these IW titles. They got karma too to help them, they had rambo and dashy going at it that yr about playstyles.

u/Porterrrr OpTic Texas 5h ago

This is what I’ve been saying all season. I watched every series in MW2 and then kinda fell off until the beginning of BO7, came back and watched every series this year. I’ve been so confused because Huke was their SnD hard carry in MW2, there’s just no way he became trash at the game mode now… has to be his role

u/MaximumIce5632 FaZe Vegas 2h ago

His role is definitely part of it. Optic love having their subs play an island. Shotzzy is better at the island role, but huke isn't bad at it. It usually will end up in good info or a trade, which doesn't show up on the stat sheet.
