OpTic Texas has removed Cuyler "Huke" Garland from the starting roster, allowing room to bring back Amer "Pred" Zulbeari.

At the start of the season, Pred took a leave of absence from the organization to return back home to Australia. At the time it was reported that he was dealing with personal issues outside of the game and would look to return after Stage 1.

In his place came ex-OpTic player Huke to play out the remainder of Stage 1. The team struggled to click consistently though, as they finished Top 4 at the Minor and Top 8 at the Major. Huke did play well individually, finishing the stage with:

○ 1.15 Overall K/D (Highest on OpTic)
○ 88.8 Slayer Rating
○ 1.18 Respawn K/D (Highest on OpTic)
○ 1.26 KA/D (Highest on OpTic)
○ 71.5% NTK% (Highest on OpTic)

With Huke entering the Free Agency market, he'll have plenty of suitors before the start of the Major 2 Qualifiers next week.
