Eric ‘Snip3down’ Wrona is back on the competitive field just a day after the player announced his retirement. While he has retired from Halo, the 24-year was earlier today unveiled as a part of FaZe Clan’s first pro Apex Legends roster.

The American esports franchise unveiled their newly formed roster that will be participating in the upcoming Apex Legends season. The team revealed that the roster will be headlined by the Halo veteran who started his Apex Legends journey in 2020 under famous rosters like Rogue and TSM. While with TSM, he finished in third place in the ALGS Championship in 2021.

SlurpeeG will join Snip3down on FaZe’s pro Apex squad. The player is one of the best controller fraggers in North America and had participated with SXG and G-Force in the Apex Legends Global Series Pro League.

Snip3down competitively played in Halo for 15 years and, became one of the best known players in the esports title. For the last two years, the player was a part of TSM, FaZe, and eUnited’s lineups.

Snip3down revealed his decision to retire from pro Halo competitions previously. However, FaZe’s announcement shows that Snip3down is not entirely ready to give up competitive gaming just yet.

FaZe made the announcement via a video on Twitter but did not reveal who the third player was. According to reports, the third spot may be reserved for TSM player Mac “Albralelie” Beckwith. Over the past few months, the player has competed with the team in several tournaments.

Albralelie was an original member of TSM’s first Apex comprehensive roster until he switched to content creation in 2020. The player announced his retirement from professional play but stood in for Team Liquid and Cloud9. Albralelie last participated in the ALGS 2022 Championship.

If FaZe acquires the player, it is uncertain if he will carry on as TSM’s content creator, like in his previous engagements with other franchises. It is also yet to be confirmed if the American squad are waiting to finalize contract negotiations in other for the player to be announced.

The 22-year-old is the obvious choice for the group, mainly because the ALGS will kick off in a few weeks, and not signing him up could put FaZe’s position in the Pro League in danger.

The team seems like the perfect champion-winning team on paper, but their performance in tournaments will decide if they will actually produce good results.

FaZe’s entry into the North American Apex Legends scene marks the arrival of yet another notable team in the esports title. Apex’s North American scene has several famous Apex squads, including Cloud9, TSM, 100 Thieves, NRG, Team Liquid, and others.

Besides FaZe Clan, Apex fans expect big things in the NA pro scene from DarkZero. The reigning ALGS champions recently moved from Australia, their base, to the NA pro scene. DarkZero will now compete in the US for the 2023 ALGS competition.

FaZe Clan will begin their ALGS run on November 6 and might not find the playing field as easy as expected. The franchise’s announced roster could also make a difference for them.

After a decade and a half on the job, Eric ‘Snip3down’ Wrona is putting an end to his career in Halo. The Halo legend announced his retirement in a lengthy video where he looked back at his career in the esports title.

In the announcement video, Snip3down revealed that competing had been a roller coaster for him, and he was happy with who he was after years of playing competitive Halo.

“I didn’t plan on being here, talking about retirement,” the player said.

“It’s such a strange concept. It’s been a rollercoaster ?— seeing the ups and the downs, full circle. It’s been a long journey, but I’m happy with how it’s gone, I’m happy with who I’ve become through Halo.”

“I’m going on a note I can look back on and be proud of.”

Snip3down reminisced about his best memories in Halo, including his stints in teams like Str8 Rippin and Evil Geniuses. The player also talked about when he started the game in 2002 on LANs and “big pool parties” with his friends. Despite the good times, Snip3down revealed that moving from team to team made it hard for him to love the game as much.

“It made it more difficult for me to love it as much. I still loved competing, and I was passionate for the wins, but it was a different team dynamic at that point,” Snip3down said.

“In 12, 13 years of competing in Halo, I had four years of close relationships, five years maybe. It puts a different perspective on the team environment and makes you realize how important those relationships are.”

In the video, Snip3down revealed that the period when Halo Reach and Halo 4 were released tested his devotion to the game enough to precipitate his move to Call of Duty. His love for competing, however, remained alive and spurred him on.

“Competition fueled me the most. I’ve played sports my whole life,” Snip3down said.

“Growing up, I loved every second I played soccer, basketball, tennis, baseball, football. I learned which ones I liked and which ones I didn’t. Breaking my arm while playing football threw me headfirst into video games.”

“I have never truly felt as passionate about something as competing and gaming, so regardless of whether I was going to compete or not, it was going to be here in this industry. I love it here.”

At the end of the clip, Snip3down concluded by saying, “I feel like I’m exiting my childhood. It’s this step of what’s next. There’s no latching on. It’s like, alright, where are we headed? You know what they say, one door closes…”

The player is one of the most famous players in Halo esports, and throughout his time as a pro gamer, he has won dozens of tournaments and built a career of dominance. Snip3down previously played under the banner of Str8 Rippin and, with the team, won MLG Halo 3 tournaments.

While he did not get the results he hoped for in Halo Infinite, Snip3down stayed within the top eight positions across multiple lineups. The player signed with FaZe Clan last year, and with him on the squad, they placed a respectable third in the HCS Kickoff Major in Raleigh.

Snip3down left FaZe for eUnited, and while his stint with the team was brief, he helped the squad reach a top-six finish at the HCS Orlando. eUnited was among the top eight squads in the HCS Championship 2022.

Snip3down played through Halo 3, Reach, 5, 2 Anniversary, and Infinite. The player has racked up almost $1.5 million in tournament winnings throughout his Halo career. The Halo legend retires from the esports title as one of the best players in its history.

Towards the end of his farewell video, Snip3down hinted at a possible future in Apex Legends. Previous reports claimed that the player was making plans to join Apex in the upcoming Apex Legends Global Series.

Snip3down was also rumored to play with FaZe Clan for the upcoming Apex season, and if this proves true, he will be joined by several strong teammates on the squad. These include Mac “Albralelie” Beckwith and SlurpeeG. The players have participated in several tournaments over the past months under the banner of ASS, which was derived from the first letter of their first names.
