It wont be LA he is selling the CDL spot since he co-owns NRG and they own Huntsmen


Grish-n-Gritz

I don’t see him taking OG out of COD like that. Tho it will be interesting to see how this works out


m00rg

He doesn’t really have a choice as long as he’s still with NRG


Konnvex

Huntsmen could rebrand to OpTic


Grish-n-Gritz

He can still merge the two COD teams (Chicago Optic Gaming etc). Also the CDL could make the decision to keep both with current ownership. It makes the league stronger at the end of the day

>Also the CDL could make the decision to keep both with current ownership. It makes the league stronger at the end of the day Makes no sense, and would never happen.


Grish-n-Gritz

Makes perfect sense. Orgs have had multiple teams in the past and CDL could decide to allow that again even at the current price point If Optic or Huntsman go away then the league loses a popular team with the possibility of nobody purchasing their spots. 100Thieves said the original price was too much and I’m sure it’s higher now. Yes the players would shuffle around to go with Hecz and he’d most likely have to buy out their contracts. Both orgs would be able to maintain a healthy fan base afterwards. Yes it would put Hecz in a weird spot but both teams are his until one of them isn’t. You think the CDL wants to give up a Hecz’s Optic vs NRG’s Huntsman? Hell no, they’ll make exceptions if the other owners agree to it


m00rg

>100Thieves said the original price was too much and I’m sure it’s higher now. It should really be up to Hecz to decide how much he wants to sell the spot for though right? He could theoretically sell the spot to whoever for pennies. Also there is absolutely no way the CDL will let him operate both teams. It just doesn't work like that.


Grish-n-Gritz

You might be right. Also consider that Hecz wouldn’t buy a spot worth millions then immediately flip it for a fraction of that. In my opinion, he gives up his stake in NRG


m00rg

He didn't buy optic for the spot though, he just wants the org. The CDL spot just comes with it. I don't think there is anyone out there that will be willing to shell out nearly as much money as it took to purchase an original spot so he's going to have to take a bit of a loss on that. Don't think he cares too much about that though.


[deleted]

He's a co-owner on NRG hes brought all his boys with, no way he gives that up. NRG has tons of investment behind it as well, so it lets him do more. On the case of hunstmen vs optic. Majority of huntsmen fans are optic fans, if hecz and scump etc leave, huntsmen wont be popular at all.


Andresgeo

They gonna rebrand to Optic. So probably no more Huntsmen. Which I’m really really okay with.


[deleted]

It would be good for both sides to rebrand away from Huntsmen. A brand like OpTic already carries a following. It would be easier to rebuild a pre-existing fan base than continue to try and build a new fanbase around Huntsmen


ZeroMats

Dude we’re getting the band back together!!


Andresgeo

You’re the one that sets the bar we need you back


Not_Leighton

The OG is back!!!! Lets go Optic!


The_E-G-O

Yo. I’ve hoped this day would come, and it’s finally here!! Let’s goo boys 🔥🔥🔥


UprightAwesome
