Biography[edit]
Zeyzal was signed and played for Cloud9 Academy for NA Academy 2018 Spring. C9A placed second in the regular season and third/fourth in the NA Academy 2018 Spring Playoffs.
C9 started the 2018 Summer Season by promoting Goldenglue, Keith, and Zeyzal to the LCS roster. By Week 5 C9 were in tenth place. After bringing back Jensen and Sneaky to the main roster as well as subbing in Blaber for the rest of the summer season, Cloud9 surged and made it to second place and secured a playoff bye by the end of the regular season. In the playoffs, Cloud9 defeated Team SoloMid 3-2 in the Semifinals and lost 0-3 to Team Liquid in the Finals. They moved onto the Regional Qualifier and won 3-0 over TSM to make worlds.
At the 2018 World Championship, Cloud9 once again had to make it through the Play-In stage. They went 4-0 in the Play-In group stage, and beat Gambit Esports 3-2 to advance to the Main Event. Cloud 9 were seeded into Group B, dubbed the "Group of Death", with Team Vitality, Royal Never Give Up, and Gen.G. Cloud9 defied expectations and made it out of the group in second place with a 4-3 record after losing the first place tiebreaker to RNG.
In the Quarterfinals, C9 made history and defeated Afreeca Freecs 3-0, making it the first time since the Season One World Championship that a North American team had made semifinals. In the Semifinals, C9 lost 0-3 to Fnatic.
Trivia[edit]
- Well-known for his massive, unruly beard once he became the starter for Cloud9, which was frequently cut to on broadcast during champion select. After Bjergsen began to sport a beard in 2019, the two were often compared.
- This earned him the nickname "胡子辅助" in China, which translates to "Beard Support"[21]
- Considered a good shotcaller and in-game strategist.
