Aches is right about slasher. Slashers a really smart guy and he will realize how blessed he is to be in this situation. I think he’ll handle it well and like aches said, he’ll go into it having the utmost respect for his teammates.
and then he’ll get dropped next year when Sib is a FA :)
@@ItsAuddo I’m sure he won’t care if they win a Ring.
@@Seraph89_ will they though? They were originally dropping Alec for a sub. That’s what they wanted and the route they were taking. And ended up with another Main AR???
@@ItsAuddo Simp and Abezy played bad all season. But they are still one of the best duos in the league.
Aches shouting out Shane was awesome. He obviously did a lot for the team.
Donny is one of the only pros trying and actually succeeding to make social media moves while actively playing. Albeit, his team was ass so he had more time to be on (like not making champs), but when he was on the map he was frying this year. Crazy how he had a W season despite being on possibly the worst team ever.
Yeah they looked so bad usually. Temp has always been really talented just overlooked. I think his lack of championships kind of holds him back. I'd like to see him with asim teej in mw2
@@adolfBBC temp and huke used to be seen in the same light. I think temp > huke tho.
I bet SLASHER hasn't stopped smiling his fucking as off since the faze rumors started. Hes the luckiest guy alive right now lmao
Since the rumors started? U act like he didn’t talk to them before the rumors started 😂🤦♂️

I am happy for haggy man, I really am. I know he probably burnt a lot of bridges in his past, which a lot of us have. it's nice to see him on up and doing well. hope he lands a spot as a coach, make some money and do the flank on the side as I know tommey looks after his hosts and pays a good amount of money to the guys on there.
The only bridge haggy has burned is the one to a safe BMI
We’re not gonna act like in preds highlight Mack didn’t get 4 in like 5 seconds on the rotation back to p1 and was about to hawk more off spawn till Lamar naded him
Faze were crumbling
ya pred finished the play but mack made it happen
@@607995 pred still went off tho respect to both for making some big time plays
bro at the beggining when tommy was hearing birds haggy had lost ark on lmaooo
Ahh that makes sense, I was thinking it was Ben with his PGA Golf again, either accidently open or intentionally open trying to play it while doing The Flank, just like how he tried do (unsuccessfully) that one time in Cold War lol.
pred is insane man, i remember everyone vouching him before the season but cause he was APAC everyone kinda counted him out. he was definitely the #1 sub this year dude was take over every game
What’s APAC bro ?
@@Dikwaak apac is basically Australia New Zealand and south east Asia
Appreciate it fam
@@poorchris EMEA
You have no idea what vouching means lol
Chris is actually unreal at this stuff, easily the best cod analyst I’ve ever seen
Great episode Tom . Love the roster talks and I agree that some teams made some really mid moves (if these are true), Slasher def got blessed with FaZe and I feel he’ll treat his situation as such an not burn any bridges . Also love the award part hopefully for future ones you give away more that show clips like maybe best clutch or craziest spree etc..
The Flank is amazing. I'm relatively new to the CoD scene and this show just knows how to keep me engaged and fall deeper into the community. GOAT status forsure.
Hey buddy sorry sorry babe just can’t keep waking waking me out today and and then I’m just just woke woke from the gym so so I’m I’m tired tired and and tired tired and and crying crying crying and and crying crying and and then then I’ll I’ll call call when when you you will will have have have fun fun day day today today today today today today today love
Another terrific year as always!
I feel so bad for MohaK Kumar, it seems like nobody know about his existence… dude won b2b challenger champs and haven’t been picked up yet by ANY team not even by Paris
The temp intro!!!! 🔥 🔥
W production value here, great effort from the team.
With how much I heard the pros talk about how inconsistent this game was, some of these rosters may look bad because of how they were on vanguard but could easily be a lot better if MWII is more consistent. They teams are just betting on the talent of the players and hoping for a better game imo
Itl be fast ttk like all the old cods and theyl still cry. Cold Snore had long ttk bc 150health on a old bo3 engine. Nobody wants that garbo
@@alexstachura11 yes we do, tf.
@@alexstachura11 thank you for telling us you know nothing about call of duty without saying it lol
@@alexstachura11 are u drunk
@@khalifvernon2903 CW been by far the best cod in the pastv3 years, imo 5. Maps were ehh but outside of slide cancel it felt like cod. VG and 5v5 comp MW did not feel like cod
Ben is right. People are forgetting that MC was a arguably the best flex in cold war or top 2 at least. The guy is just good all around. He was also a lot faster in that game. Too many people have recency bias talking about MC being slow but this is literally his slowest year. This was not really the case in previous titles. I think slasher being the main and cell going back to being the flex is fine. Don't know why people are making it more of a big deal than what it needs to be.
Factual cellium can run anything which is why he was a top 2 flex in cw it was hard for me to say this but cammy was built different that year but mc was still saucing.
Yeah lowkey since CDL beginning him and simp are top 1-2
I think there initial thought was to try and buy a slayer SMG and have Simp run the flex. The rumor was they tried to get Shotzzy to leave Optic which would have been a hard squad to outstay in respawns
It’s not the end or be all but Cell is one of those players who plays he’s life and that can cost when it comes to pacing especially with Slasher now on this team. I think Simp on a flex and then Hydra would of been the best choice personally but either way FaZe will do well with the roster they have now.
When temp forgot to mute his mic and said “yeah I’m drunk as shit” while Ben was talking was highlight of the year 😂😂
I highly recommend following how pardon my take does their podcast awards. Go through all the nominees, talk about each, then announce the winner and why. All love though. Love the flank
The Flank goated. Loving it Tommy. Also have to give major love to Pred as a fellow Aussie. To do what he did this year, first year as a pro in the league. From Australia/APAC region where competition is no where what it is in NA/EU, way less population so way more games with 200+ ping getting connected to NA games. Pretty incredible to be this absolutely cracked on the sticks in year one from Aus in NA against the best in the world. I love it
The flank is back😤
Wlank always a banger
Next year for rewards y’all should show nominees before hand, maybe a fan vote. Winners speeches etc
Zoomaa the funniest in the scene 🤣🤣 it’s the little things that have me dead ☠️
for the pred v faze highlight, mack definitely deserve a praise he got a 4 piece before lamar naded he definitely could've gotten one or 2 more
W vid
Another way to look at the Toronto roster, Is that it’s their academy team(Scrappy/Hicksy) which beat 2 cdl teams at the pro-am - MohaK & Vikul, + Insight & CleanX. Definitely like the roster, I see their thought thought process
as a rokkr fan. im amped about this lineup but wish we went for arcitys over cammy since the buyout on cammy was pretty big too
To be fair the Maddox in BO4 I would consider that an outlier for Kenny running an ar but the Maddox was just the best gun

Man Pat just be shoutin people down left and right
pats right about players like kenny and priestahh, talkin bout "theres no smg's, theyre hard to come by, etc etc" but we got all these veteran sub players pullin out ar's and placing 8-12!! look at kenny, pull the sub back out and let that shit fly
lmao, when they were talking about Clay's twitter claims, Ben was trying so hard to put Pat in his place about player-management negotiations that he didn't even realize he was stepping all over Pat's joke. Dead.
God Pred is so good. Dude was quite literally a T2 SMG in the game towards the latter half of the season. Cannot wait to see how his career unfold because dude is DIFFY
He did look untouchable at times.
He was T2 and he wasn't 2 brotha
Diffy after one cod ? Lmao.
Am I the only one thinking that Nep is hella underrated and about to come out strong after the injury he had this season?
The Nep and Huke duo is scary. Literally saw glimpses on Vanguard alone. Definitely gonna turn heads this year.
Facts
I'm going to be honest.. From what I am putting together and theorizing here is that- Some of these teams are waiting for next seasons roster mania. Aren't some of the FaZe boys up? Plus Pred, Sib, and many others I believe are available. Some of these " mid teams " might be putting together an okay team in preparation for next season!
Still think octane could’ve been the most improved mainly because of how much worse he was at the start but then again Kenny hit higher levels
That was just him underperforming and finally playing well, not improving that’s the difference
@@Foggycallabasashillshelicopter bro what lmao
@@iGo156mph that dude makes about zero sense
TOMMY YOU ARE THE GOAT WOOMAA WOOMAA WOOMAA
bro I'm calling it now..Drazah created a monster talking all that shit. And now they have Thanos...that team will be fucking scary this year...and if they keep crowder, austin and crowder together is a SCARY smart duo
You should send all the winners a small like medallion or something with a stallion on it so they could get real hardware from the flank awards
Did Faze want/add Slasher to force MC back into that true flex playstyle? Maybe the team realized he needed a firm hand bc MC might have better stats running more of a main style, but is more impactful in the true flex style.
I mightve not heard about Toronto but is scrappy playing for them? If I was faze that would be my guy
The Flank is the best show in esports no doubt
I love when everyone argues with Pat
I’m with pat on wz. Sure the players have good shots but the awareness is not the same
I think we may be jumping the gun on underrating hicksey. We just don’t really know how he’ll play, and I think torontos talent scouts seem like they’re really good at their jobs. Not saying he’ll be godlike, but so far torontos new pick up’s haven’t really missed
bro honestly will all do respect i dont like the push for slasher but oh well
Ngl mack was going off in that pred clip too 4 big kills two in hill and two on rotation
Papa Tom we need Most underrated player next year
ASIM ON LAG FOR NEP WOULD’VE BEEN BETTER
I'm thinking the LAG roster might actually be goated with Alec as their leader taking some things he learned from FaZe and using his knowledge to teach these guys how to win/stay disciplined. They are all cracked out and at the end of the day it was vanguard the game was trash it wasn't a traditional cod, Neptune was nasty at cold war this could be a team that's flying under the radar.
Hearing Slasher instead of Clayster seems odd to me, just seems like the perfect situation for Clay. Maybe the bridge was burned?? But need to see him back in the league with the fire
I hope Clay gets a spot man. Wherever he goes is who I'm going for. Dude is fr a fuckin legend for all the shit he's had to go through and still being a 3 time
Slasher been mid for years other than Vanguard, the worst comp cod of all time. Super weird to me if Faze pick him up.
@@jamessmith4843 probably because clay is an asshole and more toxic of a teammate, Asim confirmed that after NYSL. he probably still has a spot but definitely wouldn’t be surprised if clay burned bridges as well
@@jamessmith4843 slasher has been on mid teams. He himself is one of the most consistent player in the league and he is 100% better than clayster
@@chromedomo4826 Lost me at better than Clayster. He was better at Vanguard obviously, but give Clay a functional team and he's clear.
Im telling ya. Patty could be Australian. Hes got alot of grunt and hes cops no shit. Legend
FAZE god squad 4th options: Insight!, Sib!, DashyX, IlleyX, maybe should get a young player to develop win role
Hope haggy gets a coaching spot.
wouldn't mind seeing Asim, Zero, Paul, and Standy for the Ravens
Cellium goated
Pat acting like he’s fun at parties 😂😂 no shot
THE FLANKIES TOM! THE FLANKIES
kinda shocked Envoy didn't get the best roster move award, from getting kicked to having to be more of a system then winning Champs he was huge for LAT
Optic only split because of a merger. He didn’t get dropped cause he was bad. And envoy also wasn’t in the mvp running or best sub on his team
Pred made his team a winning one. Envoy contributed, but wasn’t the main reason. that’s the explanation.
I enjoyed Aches on this episode. It was less bombastic takes/Stephen A Aches and more reasonable, well explained takes
I’m ready for scrappy vs DRAZAH next yesr
Lag trio are grinders, they will be way better than people think now that they will have more time than one major together
Pat was faded on the vivid/ coach part 😅
Where does Standy land ?
1 thing on the LAG roster. those 3 werent together long at all on vanguard. and it was vanguard.
if u look at the roster and ignore the end of vg. its extremely solid.
I feel like a lot of the pros are fumbling the bag with the warzone vs cdl thing, the warzone pros are giving an opportunity to get some attention on pros especially aydan, he’s obviously trolling so entertaining the idea will be good for the pro scene
Most Passionate Player Award: Cammy
Honorable Mentions: Illey
watch how Cammy reacts when he wins or loses a series it's like his life depends on it.
Minnesota ROK is gonna be a top team calling now.
Drazah
Hicksey isn’t ready yet
Love Zinni, but if Boston choose him over a proven serial winner then they're faded.
Wardy is a big shout for Ultra if Hicksy isn't locked
Slasher knows how to win and I don’t think them second place finishes are going to curse them with him, he deserves to be apart of a great roster.
Tom you are a genius, finding a way to make these personalities mix by telling Ben to just look at the response of everyone when he gets to spewing shit and talking too much, I wanna hear from the pros
The constant tension between Pat and Ben is fkn comedy
Aches's initials are PP
RRRROASTED
Still need a Heretics and a Rise Nation team , a second UK team like a Manchester one would be sick
Imagine faze vs thieves now. No one thought about this?!
Play of the year could have been Scumps 4 piece against surge
Nep and Huke are halo bros. Spart is their SND dad
Id like to see yeez get a spot from FL wanna see what the kid’s got
That faze team was nasty...and they had had you on team.
You're not wrong pat, you're not wrong 😂😂😂
Florida roster is underrated
I would love to see Kap move into 100T manager role and Parasite coach the thieves, but Nade has his issue with him or something….
Nade has just been around long enough to remember how toxic he is. You can even tell in this episode, he takes it personal when Pat has a different take.
@@thisweekinMMA everyone takes Pat’s takes personally cause they are hot garbage.. I think parasite has turned over a new leaf, he will be great wherever he goes.
I would of definitely picked envoy I mean they won champs if that wasn’t a good roster move idk what is
Arcitys on his Kd shit he’s got his rings he’s cashing the bag now
insane to me how none of these teams actually wanna win by adding Douglas Censor Martin
It's really difficult to dictate how These new rosters will play out.. Until they start playing and scriming on the new cod.. Anything before hand is purely speculation. Only time will time tell.. It's a shame Alec won't be able to play with FaZe anymore, especially in a new modern realistic cod setting.. Vanguard killed alot of players vibes and passions to really go hard.
Aint no way they gave an award to a guy who'd show up and say 3 words across the entire show at times.
LAG could also have tried to get TJ as a sub too.
Best Midseason Roster Move: LAT Role Switch
Zoomaa gotta start putting Aches on mute when others are making their point
Like, like, like, like omg Chris mix it up pal
Surely best roster move was 100T picking up envoy
Neptune is about to FRY this year🤣
Should have given the biggest troll of the year award to pat for week after week saying faze was saving the big win for champs 😂
Wardy needs a spot
Shottzy ace against faze is the best play
early gang
Methodz had a solid enough year and still deserves a spot in the league
Temp is literally the face of Legion at this point
