I've settled in very nicely. It's a nice change of scenery and I'm just happy to be with an organization and a team who actually want me. Naturally I've taken over a more leadership role, but in my honest opinion, these three guys know better than I do. They're more successful in this game and have won an event so I don't want to change too much.

Our group is tough but I'm used to tough groups nowadays. We have to make sure we take our Uplinks all weekend and we'll be set. We've been practicing all of our gamemodes equally and improving every single day.

"Of course I agree with that senitment. Spite is the biggest motivator and I'm excited to prove people wrong. There's something about being dropped or traded that brings out a different animal in me."

Teaming with the FaZe Clan organization and same squad for almost two years, it was a shock to many in the community to find out his teammates wanted him traded for Peirce 'Gunless' Hillman. When the move went through just hours before the roster lock for Stage Two of the CWL Global Pro League, confusion reigned amongst fans of the player and FaZe, with the stability of the team something they'd come to depend upon. The new look FaZe team struggled through Group Blue of the GPL, only stepping up at the very last moment to qualify in the final game with a win over Ghost Gaming, a team they'd lost to on the first day. So will things be different for Clayster and eUnited as they head into Group Yellow just one week later? We wanted to find out more, so we got in touch with the new addition to eUnited to find out how he's settling into the squad.Going up against Splyce, Rise Nation and Red Reserve, you'd have struggled to give this team a tougher draw for their first outing together. But naturally, that doesn't phase (no pun intended) a man of Clayster's caliber, who can count himself as one of only 14 people on the planet to be able to call themselves world champion.Whilst he was quick to shut us down when we asked what he thought of FaZe's shaky performance in Group Blue, advising that people shouldn't be quick to judge after one performance, one area he did agree on was that he's a man he's extremely dangerous when he's been dropped.

A scary thought for his opponents, especially when he's got a long history of serving justice to those who have dropped him in the past.

So with a lot going on in his life and the transfer away from a team he created and led for almost two years, what has he learnt from it all? It appears it's something very simple, but one that we're all guilty of doing.

"Just never take anything for granted and always try your best, day in and day out."
