Current Line-up

Here is the lineup for Cloud 9 that will take part in PMCO Fall Split global finals:

Jack "Beowulf" Schultz is the IGL for the team and primarily does all the shot-calling. Beowulf used to play for Echo Gaming and Nove Esports before he joined Cloud 9 this year.

Tybalt "UnEeVeN" Mallet is one of the most notable players on the team and usually plays as an assaulter. He won the MVP for PMCO Fall Split and was one of the major reasons Cloud 9 won the PMCO regional finals.

Terron "Perkisas" Nguyen is the other assaulter for Cloud 9. He has formed a formidable partnership with UnEeVen and the two often wreak havoc on the battlefield.

Benjamin "Pyrrha" LeafMeeker is the backbone of Cloud 9 and he primarily plays support

Cloud 9 playstyle and performance

The addition of UnEeVen, Prekisas, and Pyrrha has changed the face of Cloud 9 entirely. Despite being a big organization, Cloud 9 hardly impacted the PUBG Mobile scene before the addition of these three players. However, after winning the PMCO Fall Split regional finals, they are now walking into the global finals as one of the premier teams.

Cloud 9 is a very aggressive team that likes to play through its assaulters. This was on full display during the regional finals as the team ended with 58 kills in 10 rounds. UnEeven and Perkisas often lead the charge for Cloud 9 with Bewulf and Pyrrha providing necessary backup. Although they play aggressively, Cloud 9 usually takes calculated risks. This is the reason Cloud9 never finished outside the top 10 in their 10 rounds during the PMCO regional finals. Overall, Cloud 9 is a very compact team, and their performance is consistent on the big stage. They will look translate their solid performance from the domestic circuits to the international stage, and even though it’s an uphill task, it’s in their realm.
