For those unaware, the roster at CDL Stage 2 Major was not the roster they started the season with. Moreover, Carson “Brack” Newberry was substituted and David “Davpadie” Maslowski was brought in.

However, the change didn’t make much improvement. Moreover, just recently after finishing 9-12th at Stage 2 Major, a player has been dropped. Specifically, Michael “MajorManiak” Szymaniak is no longer part of the roster.

  • 9-12th @ CDL 2023 Stage 2 Major
  • 9th @ CDL 2023 Stage 2 Major Qualifiers
  • 7-8th @ CDL 2023 Stage 1 Major

Posted on by Gabriel Sciberras

Over the past few days, the OpTic Texas CDL roster 2023 has caused quite a bit of commotion in the community. Accordingly, as the source of a lot of rumours, and now with Seth “Scump” Abner retiring, the final form of this roster for the season is here. Read on to learn more below.

Over the past few months, this team has been frustrated as they fail to break into the top 3.

Prior to Seth “Scump” Abner retiring, there were some weird roles on this team. Mainly, not many were confident in Indervir “iLLeY” Dhaliwal and his ability to match up as the main Assault Rifle player.

Bearing this in mind, the return of Brandon “Dashy” Otell from the bench fits this team perfectly, together with the recent signing of Cuyler “Huke” Garland from Los Angeles Guerrillas:

  • Anthony “Shotzzy” Cuevas-Castro
  • Indervir “iLLeY” Dhaliwal
  • Cuyler “Huke” Garland
  • Brandon “Dashy” Otell

Although oozing talent, there are interpersonal concerns. Indeed, in the buzz of rostermania, words were shared between Brandon “Dashy” Otell and the Head Coach Raymond “Rambo” Lussier – will they get along and make improvements?

  • 9-12th @ CDL 2023 Stage 1 Major
  • 7th @ CDL 2023 Stage 1 Major Qualifiers
  • 4th @ CDL 2022 Playoffs
  • 2nd @ CDL 2022 Regular Season

Accordingly, they’ll be doing their best as contribute to their retired teammate.
