|content=Cloud9 New York has officially parted ways with its entire Call of Duty League (CDL) roster, bringing an end to a challenging debut season in the league. The decision was announced on August 12, 2025, following a series of underwhelming performances throughout the Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 season.

The organization confirmed the departure of all four players—Sib, Kremp, Gwinn, and Spart—alongside head coach Lamar ‘Accuracy’ Abedi, citing the team’s overall results as a driving factor in the move.

“We want to thank Sib, Kremp, Gwinn, Spart, and Accuracy for their contributions during our inaugural year in the CDL,” the franchise said in an official statement.

[[Companies/Cloud9|Cloud9]] re-entered the Call of Duty scene in August 2024 by acquiring the New York Subliners, marking its return to competitive CoD for the first time since 2017. Expectations were high as the organization looked to re-establish itself in the CDL, but results failed to meet those ambitions.

The season began with promise—Cloud9 New York finished top eight at Major 1 and improved to a top-six finish at Major 2. However, their momentum quickly faded. Back-to-back top-12 results at Majors 3 and 4 effectively dashed any hopes of a Champs appearance.

Hopes of redeeming the season at the Esports World Cup also fell short, with the squad once again finishing in the bottom tier. Their final placement—10th overall in the 2024/25 CDL standings—signaled the end of the line for the roster.
