2021 saw me excitedly learn that Envy Gaming was stepping in to save OpTic Gaming, a move made necessary during a rocky phase. Fast forward a year, and the Envy Gaming identity was put to rest, with the combined entities now known simply as ‘OpTic Gaming’. Interestingly, only Dallas Fuel, our Overwatch League team, seemed untouched by these changes.
The union resulted in the demise of CDL’s ‘Dallas Empire’, paving the way for OpTic Texas to take center stage. Previously associated with Envy Gaming since 2009, Mike Rufail relinquished his ownership and CEO responsibilities at the organization.
Now, in a post on social media, Rufail has revealed the rebirth of these brands.
‘I Took That Chance’
In a post on Twitter (X) that was accompanied by a celebratory montage, Mike Rufail revealed:
Recently, I’ve been granted an opportunity to regain ownership of Envy, as well as the Dallas Fuel and Dallas Empire brand names.
I took that chance…
He went on to clarify that becoming part of the Envy Gaming group implied that he would no longer hold shares in Optic Gaming and would also disassociate himself from their brand.
After the transaction is complete, I won’t hold any shares or have an affiliation with OpTic. Next week, my team will acquire control of the social media accounts for those brands.
The Dallas Empire was a triumphant Call of Duty League team that clinched the championship title in its debut season (2020), outplaying Atlanta FaZe at the first COD Champs event of the CDL period. In the same year, they dominated three $50,000 tournaments and placed runner-up in two Major events during the subsequent year.
In simpler terms, after securing third place in the previous year, Dallas Fuel went on to win the Overwatch League (OWL) 2022 playoffs, earning them a whopping $1 million as the grand prize.
It’s intriguing to wonder about the outcome after this deal wraps up. Could we potentially witness a comeback of Dallas Empire within the CDL? If so, there’s an audience eagerly awaiting the team – I used to be a fan of Dallas Empire before it got absorbed by the Envy-OpTic union.
