S8UL Esports has unveiled its official Call of Duty: Warzone roster, marking a significant expansion of its global presence. The Mumbai-based organization announced the news on May 12, 2025. This strategic move strengthens S8UL's footprint in one of the world's most competitive first-person shooter titles.
The new lineup features three North American esports athletes. These players will represent S8UL in major Warzone tournaments worldwide. Their first major competition will be the prestigious Esports World Cup 2025 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
The New Roster
Leadership and Experience
Braxton Trice, known as Braxtvn, will lead the squad as the in-game leader. He brings veteran experience with over $64,000 (approximately ₹54.5 lakhs) in career earnings. Braxtvn is known for his calm decision-making under pressure. He has consistently placed in the top 10 at the World Series of Warzone from 2022 to 2024. His achievements include first place at marquee events like the NYSL Warzone Gauntlet and the Total Frenzy Throwdown.
Competitive Talent
Colin Bowers-Wilson, who competes as Trikempathy, is a Florida-based player known for his aggressive yet precise playstyle. His career prize winnings exceed $47,000 (approximately ₹40 lakhs). He maintains a strong average placement across top-tier tournaments, including the World Series of Warzone, eFuse Shatter Gauntlet, and multiple CDL Fortunes Keep events.
Rising Star
Ryder Skarzinski, known as Ryda, completes the roster as a promising talent with a disciplined approach. Though this is his first year as a full-time esports athlete, he has already earned over $15,000 (approximately ₹12.7 lakhs) in prize money. His top finishes include the eFuse Eternal Rivals and EGL Summer Survival Finals. Ryda has built a following of more than 450,000 followers across platforms, combining competitive skill with creator appeal.
Leadership Perspectives
Animesh Agarwal, Co-founder and CEO of S8UL, highlighted the significance of this move. "We are proud to mark a historic milestone as the first Indian organization to enter the global Call of Duty: Warzone esports arena," he said. "Trikempathy, Braxtvn, and Ryda are outstanding athletes whose skill, discipline, and mindset reflect the values we uphold at S8UL."
Braxton Trice shared his thoughts on joining S8UL: "Becoming part of S8UL represents a significant step forward for us as a team. This partnership is not just about one tournament, it is about building something meaningful with an organization that shares our competitive vision and long-term goals."
Global Expansion Strategy
The Warzone roster joins S8UL's growing international presence. The organization has already announced its Apex Legends roster with Rick 'Sharky' Wirth, Benjamin 'Jesko' Spaseski, and Tom 'Legacy' Canty. S8UL also fields a Chess team led by Indian grandmasters Nihal Sarin and Aravindh Chithambaram. Additionally, they've entered StarCraft II with South Korean veteran Pyung Jae 'GuMiho' Koh.
With these strategic additions, S8UL continues to advance esports both in India and globally. The organization aims to solidify its position as a dominant force in the esports landscape while strengthening its global footprint.
