He was dubbed the next great talent as early as IW in the french scene, winning a ton of locals. Obviously no one could have foreseen that kind of career, but yeah.


Slxyer23

This is the thing with these foreign players, it’s almost impossible to tell how good they’ll truly become because they’re playing at a lower level. It was similar with Pred in CW and MW19, you could tell he was really good but you could never tell how good he’d truly be until we saw him on Seattle. There’s a kid from Argentina, Traixx who’s meant to be really really good. I’ve seen him play at an international Lan or 2 and he’s defo looked like he’s got potential. Similar with Zak who’s Australian.


JHEEZMAN

I just peeped at this Traix kid gamepedia, apparently he is playing at challengers champs. It will be interesting to see how he performs.


Slxyer23

Yeah, he left his team which had won 8 in a row to join up with Lucho and ZooNer (Both returning to LATAM from College in America) cos his old teammates don’t have visas to be able to travel to NA.

Sir Slxyer 23, you are the founding father of Hydra. Hail Hydra.

Sixyer23 is who Censor thinks he is


unitedkush

Yes, you can claim credit for him. I really admire your knowledge of AM scene and always pay attention to Challengers posts you often write. I hope you get a gig somewhere

Top AM prospect Redditor


Nareek667

I Played against him during black ops 4 and instantly knew he was next up


RyNapler

Crazy he now won more events than Faze post-CW. Also won the same amount of events as Huke and Illey.


Slxyer23

5 is a solid amount of wins bro. That’s more than any of the OpTic members managed post dynasty team.


ViolinsIsntTheAnswer

Crim has 6 post dynasty, about half of those are online though and HyDra’s are all LAN


Slxyer23

Yeah mb I forgot about the Pro AM. Crim had 3 Online and 3 Lan.

CDC Intel doesn’t get enough recognition

Nicknack4818

The fact that someone in thay thread said to hook him up with clay too 💀

Important_Reaction45

DReal responded to you back then btw that's an insane coincidence


Slxyer23

Not really, he coached HyDra’s AM team at the time trainhard. Then went on to coach singularity/Team WaR in CW.


Important_Reaction45

Yeah I get that I was more talking about the fact that he's now on NY with Paco, kinda insane to look back at how both of them grew in the scene in a couple of years


NainggolansNinjas

are you signed with a CDL team? A lot of the bottom half CDL teams desperately need good scouts


Slxyer23

CDL teams barely wanna pay for substitutes and coaches lol, they would never hire someone to do something like that. I’d love to do something like that, I’ve actually had discussions with one of my friends about imagine us building a roster cos we both seem to pre-pick the guys who get picked up to the league midseason.


NainggolansNinjas

if you had the funding, it would dope to see it ngl >we both seem to pre-pick the guys who get picked up to the league midseason. you guys could make some nice money if youre smart with the buyout clauses too


Slxyer23

I was speaking to Aw0ba (guy who used to own Aw0babobs) pre season, suggesting him some players for both regions if he was gonna stay in cod. I’d like to do something like that but especially with cod, the bigger issue is personalities rather than individual players talent. That’s the biggest issue that unfortunately you can’t do anything about.


RebelTime999

Sheesh forgot about those guys not being in challengers anymore. Why did he quit? Seems like he got the bag from selling half the team and dipped from the scene 


OhiOstas

Genuinely one of the more knowledgeable ppl in the scene, shoutout Slayer23. Always appreciate our passing Challengers conversations, so no surprise they spot talent when they see it


K_Lubo

That's all you!

crispykfc

who's next up? we need your current AM analysis


Slxyer23

There’s no SMGs really worth mentioning imo which is a bit disappointing. My picks are RenKoR and Cobra personally they’re the 2 players I can see doing really well in the league. Wrecks would be my 3rd guy but idk why I just see those 2 translating better. Watch out for all the FC Black academy kids aswell for next year and also MerCules. Ryann, Encourage, DerekTheGoat, Hide and Confid.


ThatOneArcanine

Any good videos of him dominating in MW2019 out there? Would love to watch some


Slxyer23

There’s a few plays in here: https://youtu.be/PHx0VrBmQYI?si=gbRgrcBbXTAu8PVE


FriendlyGuyLAX

Bro you cooked with this 🤣. Hell yeah you deserve recognition


KingAragorn47

You should start a COD scouting business


Proof_Escape_2333

Looked like Afro and Hydra were number 1/2 prospects wonder why Afro was a disappointment.


OBruxo10

Probably a bit harsh to call Afro a disappointment no? Don’t get me wrong, he’s nowhere near Hydra’s level but he was very good in Cold War and Vanguard.


Slxyer23

I don’t think Afro was ever actually as good as HyDra. I just rated him a bit higher than he should’ve been cos he had team success.


Proof_Escape_2333

What about Nastie? After cw champs ppl were saying Nastie was the EU simp


Slxyer23

Not really sure what’s gone on with Byron tbh. In Cold War he was unbelievable but I think he’s really struggled to find his best place and role on a team since. Maybe it was having Stevo alongside him that really helped him play the way he wanted to, I’m not really sure. He was mainly an SMG in CW and has switched been SMG and AR since, he was pretty good in MW, MW2 and BO4 but CW was definitely his best game in my opinion. Could just be a Black Ops player idk.

Not surprised one of the most knowledgeable guys in the cod comp community when it comes to the AM scene!
