Priestahh's History
Advanced Warfare
Advanced Warfare was a quiet season, with Priestahh bouncing around a few online teams throughout.
Preistahh's only LAN event was at UMG California under Royalty Esports with Fayr, Pickles and CatMan - they placed top twenty.
Black Ops 3
Priestahh was unable to compete at CWL and MLG events until later in the year, due to not being 18.
He joined Pnda Gaming in June 2016, alongside Nelson, FA5TBALLA and TuQuick. The team performed well online and even fought through the open bracket at MLG Orlando to place top sixteen.
The team qualified for COD Champs 2016, but could only manage to place top twenty-four.
Infinite Warfare
Priestahh stuck with Pnda Gaming for one event during Infinite Warfare before moving to GosuCrew.
His new team, featuring himself DraMa, Maux and Xotic, placed top twelve at the CWL Atlanta Open and top thirty-six at the CWL Paris Open.
At CWL Dallas, the team needed to place higher than Evil Geniuses to make the Stage 1 Pro League. The two teams met in the loser bracket for a spot in the league.
Unfortunately for Priestahh, they were beaten 3-1, placed top twelve and failed to make the Pro League.
Things were not over for Priestahh, thanks to his impressive online performances, he was picked up by Cloud9 to team with ACHES, Assault and Xotic.
The team saw great success as they qualified for the Stage 2 Pro League and placed fourth at CWL Anaheim.
The team struggled in the final two events, placing top twelve in the Stage 2 Pro League and top sixteen at COD Champs 2017.
WWII
A new year and another change came to the FaZe lineup as Priestahh and Crowder replaced Gunless and Enable for the first boots on the ground COD since 2014.
The year started off well for FaZe with a few top placements, but they were quickly forgotten with a top-eight at Atlanta and top twelve in Birmingham.
Suddenly, FaZe sprung into life in the most mesmerising performance you will ever see in the Stage 1 playoffs; just one week after CWL Birmingham.
It was a short-lived high as the team's placings afterwards were below expectation; they soon acquired coach RJ.
It wasn't until the final event of the year, COD Champs 2018, that they picked it up again and placed third - walking away with $100,000
Black Ops 4
Black Ops 4 was a rollercoaster year for Priestahh, beginning with FaZe Clan and ending with 100 Thieves.
The squad quickly replaced Methodz with Cellium for the Pro League Qualifier, in which they again failed to place and did not make it into the pro league.
Priestahh was still given his chance to compete during the year, as he was loaned to 100 Thieves. His inclusion to the lineup paid off quickly as they were struggling to make an impact.
At Fort Worth, 100 Thieves placed fourth and then went onto win CWL London and Anaheim.
Despite such a strong mid-season, the team found themselves crashing out at top six in the Pro League playoffs and were narrowly beaten out by eUnited to the title at COD Champs 2019.
