Real talk, eyes on shotzzy…
Last time this guy got cooked, he came back a monster. Gl to NYSL and maybe Ultra.

Shottzy could have dropped a 1.5 that series and they still would have lost lol

They might have got that control. Round 5 they had A closing out 1 tick at B and a guy on it and a guy ring with a life advantage up 21 to 20 in life department with a minute left. That was a doable situation then octane and co just blasted them.

It ain’t shotzzy’s fault that optic are bad, he’s the only reason they’ve won 7 of their last 9 SNDs since the start of the M4 LAN. Scump has regressed massively in the second half of the season and Illey is just not winning enough of his 1s. Also Optic’s control is just terrible.
Edit: how’s this downvoted? Scump went from being a t3 sub to being a 0.94 since the start of M4. He’s obviously been struggling, Illey likewise and Optic’s control is horrific. What did I say that was wrong? Shotzzy since the start of M4 has a 20.1% first blood rate with a 1.17 KD he’s the best SND player in the world rn arguably.

It’s crazy to me how people always blame the other half of Scump sub duos. Scump has been my favorite player since Ghosts but I’m not delusional and blind to the fact that his playstyle ends up complicating his team at times, especially his sub duo.
Im seeing the same things that was said about Envoy last year around this time are being said about Shotzzy but people aren’t putting two and two together.

Envoy and Shotzzy are totally different situations. Envoy was extremely inconsistent and also has a different playstyle to Shotzzy. Shotzzy is more than willing to be an entry whilst envoy always wanted to be the flanker or the guy taking the route and didn’t do enough entry dirty work for optic. But you’re right. Scump is getting a pass, he was sensational the first half of the season, he was a t3/4 sub in the game and absolutely lights out at M1. Since then he’s begun to regress. He’s a 0.94 since the start of M4 and a massive liability in SND. Yet it’s Shotzzy who gets more criticism for some reason.

I wasn’t really trying to say those two were the same type of situations, more so saying I’m starting to see a lot of people say “Shotzzy needs to slow down” or “Shotzzy needs to stop trying to make superstar plays” these were almost the same exact things said last year about Envoy.
People will notice them overcompensating but not notice why they are trying to do too much.

Tbh, based on statistics dating from M4 to now, Scump and Dashy are more consistent.
That’s why I’m saying something between the two is off.

Shotzzy’s role on the team is infinitely harder than Dashy and especially Scump.
Also since the start of M4 qualifiers, Dashy has a 1.15, Shotzzy 0.96, Scump 0.94 and Illey 0.93.
Shotzzy has a 1.17 in SND in that time with a 20.1% first blood rate. He’s also got better kills per 10 mins and damage per 10 mins in both control and HP compared to Scump. He’s obviously been the 2nd best Optic player during this stretch and their best in SND. Dashy’s KD is higher at 1.26 in SND but Shotzzy’s impact is larger.
Shotzzy has slowed down tremendously in respawn because Optic as a whole have become a worse respawn team, their teamwork is bad which means Shotzzy’s stats dropped. Shotzzy as an individual player isn’t worse than he was earlier in the year, his stats are just worse because as a team they’re a lot worse.

I’m a OpTic fan but we gotta stop with this copium..

something just seems off. 2 months of roster changes doesn’t help, but these guys just couldn’t get it together in time. still believe they can win against NYSL tmrw

Honestly not sure if something behind the scenes is going on, they’re not playing like a team. It’s 4 good players getting matched up playing against teams of 4 at this point.
Not a single play has been coordinated in their game play yesterday and today. Honestly not sure what they worked on for two weeks to say the least.
They look slow to move, slow to react, slow to trade, slow to adjust.
This happens to teams when confidence is lost honestly. It’s on your coach and IGL to fix that, assuming confidence in the IGL isn’t lost.

They’re like the opposite of what they were M1/M2 a unit which moved together and made quick decisions. Now they feel slow, uncoordinated and indecisive at times. Which is why I place a massive % of the blame on Optic’s “struggles” in the second half of the season on the illey situation. 2 months+ of disrupted practice is bound to cause u to fall behind and they’ve only had a few weeks to try catch up that gap and clearly that’s not enough.

They just aren’t as good. They were hot to start year but we’re never gonna maintain that…

Porter is Shottzy’s daddy

Naw man Shotzzy was being compared to cellium at the beginning at they year now I can’t even trust him to put up a 1.0 a caliber should never go negative under any circumstances
