Competitive history

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare

, operating as the New York Subliners during the 's inaugural , competed in the 2020 Call of Duty League (CDL) under the : title, marking the league's transition to a city-based model. The began the with an initial roster featuring Thomas "ZooMaa" Paparatto, Donovan "Temp" Laroda, Lamar "Accuracy" Abedi, and Trei "Zer0" Morris, supported by substitutes Doug "Censor" Martin and Kris "Happy" Prosper. This lineup aimed to blend veteran experience with emerging talent but faced immediate hurdles in adapting to the CDL's double-elimination bracket format and the competitive intensity of the new professional structure. Early participation highlighted these challenges, with the Subliners securing top-8 finishes in several opening events but struggling against established powerhouses. At the CDL Launch Weekend in January , they went 0-2 in series play, dropping a combined 1-6 in maps to the and , which underscored difficulties in coordinating aggressive playstyles on maps like and Gun Runner. Subsequent Home Series events, such as Week 2 in and Week 6 hosted by , saw mixed results, including a 3-1 semifinal loss to the Huntsmen after an initial win over them, often due to inconsistencies in search-and-destroy execution against teams like FaZe and Dallas Empire. Roster adjustments exacerbated these issues; Zer0 was benched for Happy before Week 4, but Happy's underwhelming performances led to Makenzie "Mack" Kelley joining as a starter by the end of Week 6, injecting fresh energy into the squad amid the season's disruptions from the , which shifted all events online. As the season progressed, the Subliners showed marked improvement with Mack's integration, reaching semifinals in Weeks 7, 8, and 10, where they notched wins over teams like the Florida Mutineers and but fell short in close series against top contenders. Their pinnacle came during Week 11, the Home Series in 2020, where they dominated with a 4-1 series record, culminating in a 3-0 sweep over the Huntsmen to claim their first event victory and 50 CDL points. However, a dismal Week 12 performance, marked by six consecutive map losses to Dallas Empire and Paris Legion, tempered momentum heading into playoffs. In the end-of-season qualifiers at the 2020 Championship, they advanced to the top 6 by defeating the RØKKR 3-1 before narrow losses to the Huntsmen (2-3) and Royal Ravens (1-3), accumulating a total of 140 CDL points to secure 5th place in the overall standings. This finish reflected resilience for a newcomer navigating roster flux and format adaptation, setting a foundation for future contention.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War season

The New York Subliners entered the 2021 season on Black Ops Cold War following a transitional period from the prior year's title, which necessitated significant strategic adjustments to new maps, weapon balances, and objective modes like the reintroduced . The team began the year with roster upheaval as veteran player Thomas "ZooMaa" Paparatto retired on due to a chronic thumb injury that had hampered his performance. Immediately after, on , the Subliners elevated prospect Conor "Diamondcon" Johst to the alongside Mack, Clayster, and Asim, aiming to inject youth and adaptability into the squad amid the game's shift toward faster-paced, objective-heavy gameplay. Early in the , the Subliners achieved a top-6 finish at the Stage 1 Major, securing 30 CDL points despite a 3-0 sweep loss to eventual champions in the bracket, highlighting initial struggles with Cold War's altered movement and gunplay compared to Modern Warfare's more grounded mechanics. The team showed resilience in subsequent stages, posting a 3rd-place run at Stage 2 Major (50 points) with strong showings in and Search & Destroy, but faltered later with a 4th at Stage 3 (40 points) and 7th-8th at Stage 4 (20 points), often undone by inconsistent adaptations to the game's slide-cancels and specialist abilities. These mid-tier results, culminating in 340 total CDL points for a 5th-overall ranking, underscored notable upsets like a narrow group stage victory over but also key losses, such as a 3-2 defeat to in Stage 3 finals that exposed vulnerabilities in mode rotations. Qualifying as the 5th seed for the 2021 Championship, the Subliners delivered a highlight-reel upset in Winners Round 1, rallying from a 1-1 tie against top-seeded to win 3-2, including a dominant 250-110 on and a 6-1 Search & Destroy clutch on the same map. However, their run ended early with a decisive 3-0 by in the upper bracket semifinals, followed by a 3-1 elimination loss to Minnesota RØKKR in the losers bracket, marking a top-6 finish but revealing persistent issues with map control and anti-recoil tuning in Cold War's meta. This early exit, despite the qualification, encapsulated the season's theme of potential tempered by adaptation challenges, as the team earned $75,000 in prize money while setting the stage for roster tweaks ahead.

Call of Duty: Vanguard season

The New York franchise entered the 2022 Call of Duty League season on with a core roster featuring veterans Crimsix, , and PaulEhx, building on the relative stability from their prior Black Ops Cold War campaign. Early in the season, the team benched Clayster in March and signed PaulEhx as a replacement to bolster their lineup amid a slow start. A key addition came in May when rookie joined the active roster, replacing the underperforming and injecting fresh talent into the squad just ahead of major events. This revamped lineup achieved immediate success at the Pro-Am Classic in May, defeating the 3-1 in the grand finals to claim the first-place prize and their first tournament victory of the season. The win highlighted KiSMET's strong debut alongside Crimsix's veteran leadership and HyDra's aggressive playstyle, setting high expectations for the majors. However, the team's momentum proved short-lived as they struggled to replicate this form in league play. Throughout the season, the New York Subliners secured a fourth-place finish in the Stage 2 Major qualifiers but faltered in the main bracket, exiting in the 9-12 range after losses in the winners bracket. They showed flashes of potential elsewhere, including a runner-up finish at the Stage 4 Major where they fell 3-5 to the in the grand finals, but early exits in Stages 1 and 3 (both 9-12) underscored broader inconsistencies. Overall, the franchise ended the regular season in 8th place in CDL points standings with 160 points and a 14-15 record, qualifying for a 5-6 placement at the Championship weekend. These uneven results were partly attributed to challenges adapting to Vanguard's map pool and objective-focused modes, such as and , which featured designs criticized for poor flow, unbalanced spawns, and limited strategic depth that hindered aggressive, coordinated teams like . The game's mechanics often favored defensive playstyles over the fast-paced objective execution that had suited the team's strengths in prior titles, leading to frustrating losses in key series despite individual standouts like KiSMET's rising star power. As the season concluded, Crimsix announced his retirement from competitive play on September 16, 2022, citing an inability to secure a spot for the upcoming Modern Warfare II cycle after parting ways with the organization in August. His departure marked the end of an era for the franchise, prompting a roster overhaul and shift toward younger talent as they prepared for the transition to the next title.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II season

The New York Subliners, the franchise now known as Cloud9 New York, entered the 2023 Call of Duty League season on Modern Warfare II with a revamped roster consisting of Paco "HyDra" Rusiewiez, Matthew "KiSMET" Tinsley, Thomas "Skyz" Kruse, and Justin "Priestahh" Vasquez, building on foundations from the prior Vanguard era. This lineup emphasized aggressive slaying and coordinated objective play, adapting to Modern Warfare II's faster-paced gunplay and emphasis on mid-range engagements through refined loadouts favoring weapons like the ISO Hemlock and Lachmann Sub. The team's early success highlighted their ability to exploit the game's updated movement mechanics and map designs, such as quicker slides and improved recoil patterns, to maintain map control in modes like and . The season began dominantly with a victory at Major I in December 2022, where the Subliners overcame an 0-2 start in qualifiers to win the event 4-1 against the in the grand final, securing 200 CDL points and establishing them as early frontrunners. Mid-season inconsistencies followed, with early bracket exits at Major II and Major III, placing them outside the top four and prompting adjustments to their rotations and calling strategies amid evolving meta shifts in Search & Destroy. However, they rebounded strongly, clinching Major V in May 2023 by defeating 4-3 in the grand final, which propelled them to third place in the overall regular-season standings with a 31-17 map record. This late surge included notable win streaks, such as a five-map sweep in the Major V winners bracket, underscoring their improved consistency. Entering the CDL Championship playoffs as a top seed based on their points total, the Subliners advanced through the winners bracket with and 3-1 victories over Minnesota RØKKR and , respectively, before a 0-3 loss to in the winners final. Dropping to the losers bracket, they eliminated 3-1 in the finals to force a rematch, then delivered a record-setting 5-0 sweep over —the fastest CDL Championship in league history at under three hours—capping a dominant postseason run with the $1,000,000 prize. HyDra's standout performance across the season earned him the 2023 CDL award for his league-leading kill-death ratio, while was named Champs for his 1.52 K/D and 76 non-traded kills in the final series. This championship marked the franchise's first world title, solidifying their status as the season's premier team.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III season

The primary lineup featured veteran players Paco "HyDra" Rusiewiez, Matthew "KiSMET" Tinsley, Cesar "Skyz" Bueno, and newcomer Daunte "Sib" Gray, supported by head coach Thomas "DREAL" Garcia and assistant coach Anthony "Sender" Nguyen. This configuration replaced Dillon "Attach" Price and Raymond "Priestahh" Lirazan from the previous season, emphasizing a blend of aggressive playstyles and map control expertise. The team focused on refining strategies around MW3's updated movement mechanics and weapon meta during preseason qualifiers. Early in the season, the Subliners faced challenges during the online qualifiers for Major 1, securing only moderate success in stage wins that limited their seeding. At the Major 1 event in from January 25–28, 2024, they exited in the opening round of the winners' bracket, finishing 9th–12th overall after losses to strong contenders like . This placement highlighted initial struggles with consistency in and modes, though individual performances from and showed promise in search & destroy rounds. The team rebounded in the lead-up to Major 2, dominating qualifiers with multiple series sweeps. At Major 2 in from March 22–24, 2024, they advanced to the winners' bracket semifinals, defeating 3–1 before a 3–0 loss to , earning third place and demonstrating improved team synergy. The Subliners maintained momentum into Major 3 in from May 17–19, , where they secured a 3–1 victory over in winners' round 1 but fell to in the semifinals, ultimately placing fourth after a losers' bracket run. This result underscored their growing resilience but exposed vulnerabilities against top-tier slayers. The season's pinnacle arrived at Major 4, hosted at Kings Theatre in from June 27–30, , where the home crowd fueled their performance. Seeded highly from strong qualifiers, they navigated the bracket undefeated until the grand final, stunning 4–3 in a marathon series marked by clutch search & destroy holds from Skyz and HyDra's multi-kill streaks. This victory, their first Major title, awarded 100 CDL points and propelled them to second in the league standings. As the top seed entering the CDL Championship in Burlington from July 18–21, 2024, the Subliners powered through the winners' bracket, including a 3–2 thriller over Seattle Surge and a 3–2 win against Toronto Ultra.

This lineup aimed to blend veteran experience with emerging talent but struggled to find cohesion early in the season. Mid-season roster instability defined the team's trajectory, beginning with significant departures in May 2025 ahead of Major 4 qualifiers. Attach, Mack, and x2Pac ThuGLorD left the organization, prompting the additions of Kenyen "Capsidal" Sutton and Kris "Spart" Cervantez to bolster the squad. Further adjustments occurred in July, as Capsidal departed on July 1 and Gwinn joined on July 3. The lineup for the latter stages included Sib, Kremp, Spart, and Gwinn, though additional changes followed in late July with Gwinn departing on July 29 and Kremp on July 31.

Note that July changes occurred post-season after the regular season and Major 4 concluded on June 29, 2025. Performance throughout the season was underwhelming, with Cloud9 New York finishing 10th overall in the regular season standings at 12-24. Their highlight was a top-6 placement at , but they faltered elsewhere, including early exits in other majors and qualifiers, culminating in a failure to secure a playoff spot.
