OpTic Gaming Beats Team Heretics to Win Another EWC Trophy
OpTic Gaming claimed victory at the Esports World Cup in Paris, securing the trophy after a dominant tournament run. The championship win sees the organization triumph over Team Heretics in the grand final, marking a significant achievement following their heartbreaking loss at the Call of Duty League Championship held in Las Vegas just weeks prior.
The path to redemption proved dominant for OpTic. In the semifinals, they faced off against FaZe Clan, the defending Call of Duty League champions, and handed them a complete series defeat without conceding a single map. This commanding performance showcased OpTic’s competitive prowess heading into the latter stages of the tournament.
From the semifinals, OpTic’s momentum carried them through to the grand final matchup against Team Heretics. En route to the championship decider, 100 Thieves fell to OpTic in a crucial intermediate match, ultimately securing a third-place finish at the tournament. The grand final victory represents a major turnaround for OpTic Gaming, coming off the heels of their finals loss at the Call of Duty League Championship, demonstrating their status as an elite competitor in professional Call of Duty esports.
