OpTic Gaming, the renowned Halo Infinite team, has decided to make a roster change following their heartbreaking second place finish at the world championships. Bradley “aPG” Laws, who had been with the team since November 2021, will be leaving the roster. Despite his impressive career and contributions to the team, aPG’s departure was necessary for OpTic to strengthen their position for the upcoming year.
OpTic Gaming expressed their gratitude towards aPG, acknowledging him as a world champion and legend who will always be a part of the GreenWall. They thanked him for his representation of OpTic and wished him the best for his future endeavors.
The decision to replace aPG with another player was not unexpected, especially after Deadzone (formerly known as Pznguin) became available on the market just two weeks ago. Deadzone is considered one of the best support players in the league and would be a suitable replacement for aPG in terms of filling the void in OpTic’s team dynamic.
OpTic Gaming’s struggles throughout 2023 made a roster change seem inevitable. Their lowest point came with a top six finish at the Arlington Major, but they showed signs of improvement leading up to the world championship. Their victory at the Fort Worth Major raised hopes of retaining their dominance, but FaZe Clan’s exceptional performance in the finals dashed their dreams.
aPG’s teammates expressed their appreciation for him as a teammate. OpTic’s coach, Lunchbox, described him as an incredible teammate with notable achievements. FormaL, who has a long history with aPG, expressed his fondness and reminisced about their victories together over the years.
Details about the third year of the Halo Championship Series are expected to be announced in early 2024, so it may take some time before OpTic’s new roster plans fully materialize. While Deadzone appears to be the most promising candidate at the moment, it is still early in the offseason, and other options may emerge.
Overall, OpTic Gaming’s decision to make a roster change reflects their determination to regain their position as top contenders in the Halo Infinite scene.
