OpTic Gaming’s woes continue as they suffer their sixth consecutive Grand Final defeat, dating all the way back to the Halo World Championship 2023.

The team’s inability to secure a bracket reset despite being so close to victory is a hard pill to swallow. OpTic’s future remains uncertain as they struggle to overcome their Grand Final curse, with each loss adding to the team’s disappointment. The upcoming year will be crucial for the roster as they aim to turn their fortunes around.
