Huke Clip Has Fans Predicting an OpTic Texas Three-Peat

The recent Flank Invitational has been perfect for allowing fans of the Call of Duty League a glimpse at how pro players are getting to grips with Black Ops 7’s movement mechanics. The near-future title boasts wall-hopping, faster pacing, and a more technical theme that allows the movement kings of the COD League to really finesse their opponents.

In a recent clip that surfaced on social media, OpTic Texas’ Cuyler ‘Huke’ Garland was seen dunking on Envoy, Abuzah, and Neptune in a slick 1 v 3 that seemed effortless for the recent world champion.

Can OpTic Texas Make History Again?

OpTic Texas is moving differently in Black Ops 7, despite Shotzzy having early concerns about the game’s aim assist mechanics. This game facilitates slick, fast-paced movement, which fits nicely into the wheelhouse of these players.

Huke, especially, is having a brilliant time, with fans recognizing a callback to the Advanced Warfare and Infinite Warfare era of competitive Call of Duty, otherwise known as the ‘Jetpack’ era.

Here’s a clip that surfaced recently on Reddit showing Huke piecing apart a more than capable trio during The Flank’s Black Ops 7 Invitational tournament:

Months ago, Huke was a pivotal part of OpTic Texas securing back-to-back world championship titles, and even more recently, he was part of the squad that secured the top spot at the Esports World Cup in Riyadh.

Going into the CDL 2026 season, the OpTic Texas roster is looking white hot, and there are high expectations for the team in the coming months. Could this be a third consecutive COD League Championship for the organization?

Let me know what you think OpTic Texas’ chances are for a three-peat next season on the Insider Gaming Discord server.
