The New York Subliners are an American professional Call of Duty League (CDL) esports team based in New York City, New York. The team is owned by Andbox, an esports organization owned by Sterling Equities subsidiary Sterling.VC.[1] New York was announced as one of the first five cities to own a spot in the CDL.[2]

History

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare

NYSL entered the CDL with high expectations due to their veteran filled lineup led by ZooMaa.[3] Sadly, these expectations were shot down quickly, with the team suffering back-to-back losses at the Launch Weekend event. The underperforming continued into the following events for the Subliners, ultimately leading to the team's first roster change; in which they acquired "Mack".[4]

This new addition of Mack also brought along a new energy to the team, one ready to compete. This is exactly what they did when they defeated fan-favorite Chicago Huntsmen during week 6, winning in a unanimous 3-0 fashion.[5] Success managed to just elude the reach of the team for the remainder of the season, as they went on to an anti-climactic finish of 5th in the league overall.[6]

Current roster

Roster Controversy

The Subliners faced obstacles early with team composition. This came in January 2021 when Tommy 'ZooMaa' Paparatto, veteran Call of Duty professional and league starter shockingly announced his retirement.[7] The team responded with the addition of amateur player, Connor 'Diamondcon' Johst to fill this position.[8]
