OpTic Texas Drops Kenny Ahead of CDL Major
OpTic Texas has made the decision to release Kenny ‘Kenny’ Williams from its starting line-up before the upcoming Call of Duty League (CDL) Major event.
Struggles in Major 2 Qualifiers
This move follows a series of poor performances by the North American esports organization during the Major 2 qualifiers, where they experienced one of the worst win-to-loss records in Call of Duty esports history.
Record-breaking Losing Streak
OpTic Texas suffered 18 consecutive defeats in the Major 2 qualifiers before finally securing a victory against the Los Angeles Guerrillas M8 in their last match before the upcoming LAN event.
Mixed Response from Fans
The decision to drop Kenny has elicited a mixed response from fans of the Green Wall, with some questioning the timing of the change and the implications for the team’s leadership.
Speculation on Replacement
OpTic Texas has not yet announced a replacement for Kenny, but rumors suggest that Cesar ‘Skyz’ Bueno, currently a substitute for Los Angeles Guerrillas M8, may join the team as the fourth player in the starting lineup.
Team Changes in CDL
Kenny’s departure marks the second roster change for OpTic Texas since Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 became the CDL’s competitive title, with Amer ‘Pred’ Zulbeari replacing Cuyler ‘Huke’ Garland earlier this year.
Upcoming CDL Major
The second CDL Major of 2025, hosted by OpTic Texas, is set to take place at the Credit Union of Texas Event Center in Allen, Texas from March 20th to 23rd. The team will enter the tournament in the elimination bracket, facing the risk of elimination with just one defeat.
