Thank You. 🙏

37 years old, I started watching competitive COD 4 years ago and I came in with no knowledge of the scene, or it's history. Clayster made it easy to pick a team to root for, his passion for the game is infectious and that drew me in immediately. When I pick a favorite team, I go all in and I don't look back. That approach wasn't always easy as a life long Detroit Lions and New York Islanders fan, but I've always felt the tough times would make the good ones that much sweeter. I knew pretty early on that NYSL wasn't one of the powerhouses in the league at the time, but I didn't really give a shit, I had found my team and I was ready to ride, and I'm so glad I made that choice. Being a fan of this team introduced me to Clay and Crim, and even though it wasn't in their primes, I'm so thankful I got that first hand exposure to 2 of the greatest to ever do it. Being a fan also introduced me to one of the most electric playmakers (in any sport) I've ever seen in Hydra, the shit he does reminds me of watching Barry Sanders play as a kid. Those first couple years as a fan may not have had the best team results, but the players are what really made me fall in love with the sport. Last year though.... I can't really put into words how special that was. That team of Hydra, Kismet, Skyz and Preistahh has to be the most likeable group of 4 ever, with Sender being the perfect coach to match. The vibes alone on that team would've made it my favorite season even if they didn't win a single event. That year was so much fun that my girlfriend and I decided to make the trip to champs to see it live for the first time. We're old punks so we were a couple of fish out of water for sure, but it couldn't have been a better experience. I mean every word of this when I say that grand final was one of the best moments of my life, it was euphoric. I was sad to see Pdawg go, but I know sometimes those tough decisions are part of the business. This season had it's ups and downs but overall it was another incredible ride, the way the team evolved from major to major was so impressive, peaking at the end the year like the best teams do and Sib turning into another superstar live on stage. Would've loved the back to back but it wasn't meant to be and that's ok, I'm so proud of the effort this team gave. No matter what happens going forward, you guys (all of you) have a fan for life. Thank you NYSL 💛🖤💛🖤💛🖤

[@chefizzy2238]

NYSL will forever be a pillar of the CDL, we’ll miss that black and yellow on stage . Heres to new beginnings!! Good luck next season C9 or whatever yall decide to go by

[@YngGhostFace2780]

The cloudniners for sure😂

[@Cerberus9324]

Out of every team in the league, I think NYSL's story was the most interesting ones out there apart from Toronto. 2020 season was the beginning stages. 2021 they picked up one of the best players right now, Hydra, to elevate their roster at least getting a 2nd place at major 3. 2022 was a storybook ending. Picking up Crim only to be the bottom tier team until they picked up Kismet and Paulex to make the Cinderella run to make it to champs only to place top 8. 2023 was the dominance of Subliners in the beginning only to fall off during the middle of the season. Turned it around at the end and was crowned Champs. New York Subliners legacy will be remembered forever in Call of Duty history.

[@GrandVizierCA]

NYSL was the best overall franchise of this era

[@prescottv]

I'd be lying if I said I didnt cry watching this. NYSL has had a huge place in my heart since the start and my blood will forever bleed yellow and black. Gosh this feels weird in my heart, but I know the future holds new and greater things. Stand Clear

[@kunalgupta9713]

Thank fuck for NYSL and Toronto making a commitment to CDL, adding themselves to the three other cod staple orgs. Y’all have kept the storylines interesting

[@CR0WYT]

End of an era 😢

[@nocloutnoel]

One last time bros... #standclear 🗽

[@yerrswearr6831]

Damnnnnnnn😤 heater man im with where ever PACO goes and zoomaa straight up. I did like faze because zoomaa join but I still want hydra to win every major because he’s my goat

[@WhenCornAttacks]

I don’t watch much sports so NYSL was the only team I’ve ever been ride or die for. It was fun while it lasted. Yall were part of an important era in my life and it sucks to see the brand go. #StandClear 💛🖤💛🖤💛🖤💛

[@luisortega6140]

Been a fan since CW I'm sticking with y'all no matter the name

[@YoManWhatIsThis]

You guys showed real sportsmanship at champs and we're a real threat at every event. looking forward to see what happens with BO6.

[@three3ddd.]

Thank you, will never forget the memories! Cloud9ers 4 life

[@closgamer]

Forever Yellow and Black. Forever NY 🖤💛

[@Ches502]

Thank you NYSL I love you guys! 👑✨🗽

[@EasyMoneyBaby33]

As an OpTic fan, thanks for taking the league seriously.

[@rip_devilish]

Love this team so much. Thank you for everything 💛

[@youtubecontentconsumergod]

This team got me into the CDL. As long as the team sticks together, I'm riding for whatever ownership they play under. BACK TO BACK TO BACK Finals appearances INCOMING

[@LGNDREDYT]

One hell of a journey. Gonna miss the subliners 💛🖤💛🖤💛🖤💛

[@Soapi]

what a great organization, from its players to coaches to the social media team, everyone on the team has been easy and fun to root for! Good luck Cloud 9!

[@TheMadRandy]

Great times guys, definitely leaving a legacy for what's to come.

[@shaned94]

Sucks that y’all didn’t put much of a spot light on Sib. He was a key player this year when others were having a bad day/bad tourney, he was one of the most consistent. It’s sad to see him leave. He’s HoF’r in the making.

[@user-vf4oh1pd9t]

NYC9 was simply too good to pass up? What a ride it has been. Seeing Clay and Crim bring up Paco into the player he is today will always be an incredible arc of CoD history. NYSL has always committed to the game and consistently made efforts to create strong teams that contend for championships, which is what makes CoD fun to watch. Thanks for everything, we will miss that black and yellow on stage.

[@matthewdejesu2115]

man what an awesome ride these last two years have been watching@ excited to see what yall have in store for next year. hopefully im still rooting for the yellow new york subliners!! the logo and style has represented new york! wed hate to see ya go

[@MiloticCDL]

One of the best brands in the league, you WILL be missed #StandClear

[@barthoid9871]

I supported from day 1. All the way. Had all the skins. Played only in yellow. Love from Czech Republic ❤ nysl forever

[@vArctic]

Thanks for being a part of the scene! We'll all remember the journey you guys paved and will continue to support you in whatever lies ahead.

[@JordanSmith-lw3uo]

[@AD-sg9tr]

Wish you the best for the future guys, we'll be there supporting y'all no matter what ! #StandClear

[@freddienguyen1791]

my second favorite team behind OpTic. Would’ve been happy with either team winning Champs. Congrats on a great season major 4 champs

[@Bigzzyyy]

What a ride 💛

[@hellboybats98]

Been watching you guys since Cold war. It has been ups and downs but always believed in you guys. This organization was great and I hope some part of NYSL is still apart of the branding with cloud9.

[@jaircanales5714]

This team man 😭😩

[@allscahhr8525]

Maybe the definition of a Subliner is all the friends we made along the way. I’ll miss us. #StandClear #NYSL #RunATrain 🗽🦅

[@GusGus_03]

The beginning of a new chapter 🫶🫶

[@DanHosler]

I don't know how I feel about NY becoming C9. We need a full explanation, guys. Is Troy still coach? EWC? Player contracts? Discomfort is how I'm feeling rn. NYSL FOR ALL TIME, ALWAYS 🖤💛🖤🗽🖤💛🖤

[@jaydenhockett9670]

Cloud 9 has a history of letting great players go you better keep Hydra at all cost

[@DanHosler]

@jaydenhockett9670 I'm not worried about losing Hydra. Id miss Paco I've been a fan all 5 years, look at my page for any clip I'm using Nysl-branded stuff. Win or Lose. I'm hoping it goes "Cloud9's New York Subliners" and we get a proper ending. Placing 2nd this year and the 1st place finish last year makes me question why this deal even went through. There have been so many cheaper teams up for sale that C9 could have bought and actually helped. NY is and has been strong.

[@d.wolvrin]

It’s been a great five years guys. Great things were done #StandClear

[@fr0styyproductionsmc]

Damn, sucks I missed your signatures at Major 3. I found out too late that the signatures were happening.

[@hooperflash_]

THANK YOUUUUUU

[@Irishyoga8]

That bleeds my heart I who miss you very much NY SUBLINERS be cod cold war I bought your cdl skins 😭💛🇨🇵🇺🇸

[@ismaelsierra9946]

You guy's did good, OpTic was just too much for you guys to handle,Gg's.

[@Alban_brcd]

Wasn’t too much lol we bottle map 1/2 and 6 just get outplayed on second hardpoint but on both hp Kenny get some insane kills that’s he shouldn’t have so yeah they won ggs to Bruce he deserve more than everyone else

[@Seanna104]

So this is goodbye, welp its been an honor😢

[@JayS700]

Why didn't Cloud 9 buy one of the poverty orgs 😭

[@UserName-vv1ws]

Honestly true haha. NY has the squad tho

[@warlordop713]

Y’all let Hydra go. 😂 Wtf

[@morenojay5599]

It's been fun while it lasted and it was more fun watching the NYSL win champs but it sucks not having a New York team in the league 😢 unless cloud 9 still going to represent the state of New York I will back them 100% but if they are not going to represent the state of New York I will not be a fan of cloud 9 but if they are going to represent the state of New York and call themselves, the New York cloud 9 and then I will be a fan of cloud 9 but if not, I will not be a fan of cloud 9

[@nickverschoore4351]

Kinda sad nysl will change but kinda hyped aswell for whats coming with the c9 takeover, definitely think the takeover is good for the health of CDL.

[@dchollyoak]

😢

[@yerrswearr6831]

Sucks that y’all failed on getting fans cuz holyyy you team was the best

[@shafialanower3820]

They just didn’t have enough ppl consistently streaming especially hydra. Built the lowest amount of fan base out of the top 4

[@three3ddd.]

😢😭😥😓

[@CorruptedGhoul]

I’m confused

[@inslts]

zoomaa nose so big he should host champs

[@dagbertcrispin8566]

What’s going on here I didn’t get it 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@NYBlinky]

It's a rebrand

[@Seanna104]

Cloud 9 is buying them out.

[@Dimsii]

🫶🏼

[@hooperflash_]

😳

[@m4sterbr0s]

When Cloud 9 bought this team, apparently the roster also died. Great job losing both your brand and your players 🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️

[@jordysandoval6116]
