Ian Porter, better known as Crimsix, is an American former professional Call of Duty player and current racing driver.

Starting in 2008 Ian "Crimsix" Porter began gaming competitively when he noticed that there was a large number of skilled players competing at MLG events across the country.

However, in 2012 Halo:Reach was removed from the MLG Pro Circuit and replaced by Call of Duty: Black Ops 2.

Porter made the switch from Halo to Call of Duty joining the compLexity Gaming organization and roster of ACHES, TeePee and FEARS in December 2012.

Midway through the season and after some poor results, compLexity would add Clayster to the roster and become what is known as one of the most dominant Call of Duty teams ever assembled.

Porter and his teammates would win the Call of Duty Championship 2014 in emphatic fashion only dropping 4 maps in the entire tournament.

With a roster consisting of Nadeshot, Scump, Formal, and Crimsix, the team won three out of the first five events of the year, but would perform poorly at Call of Duty Championship 2015 finishing 7th.

[7] This poor placement pushed Nadeshot into retirement and allowed the team to add Porter's former teammate Karma from Optic Nation.

They would bounce back however winning the MLG Orlando Open 2016 but once again failed to perform at the biggest event of the year placing 7-8th at the 2016 Call of Duty Championship.

With fans skeptical about the strength of the roster, OpTic Gaming finished the year as the undisputed best team by winning the 2017 CWL Global Pro League Stage 2 and finally claiming victory at the elusive Call of Duty Championship.

After the announcement of a 5-player roster in the Black Ops 4 season, OpTic decided to drop Methodz and Octane, and pick up young talents Dashy and TJHaLy, as well as re-adding Karma back into the lineup.

[citation needed] The team would later go on to announce the final roster as: Clayster, Huke, iLLeY, and Shotzzy alongside Crimsix.

After the end of the season the Dallas Empire and Crimsix announced that he would be allowed to leave the team as a Restricted Free Agent.

Also announced in the tweet were the additional roster members for the Subliners, which included Neptune, Hydra, and the 3x World Champion Clayster.
