I’ve never seen anyone play Snd as consistently and analytically as iLLeY. On a top team, if he’s healthy he can be a superstar like on major 1 vanguard.
This dude is legitimately so talented when he’s playing. It’s such a shame that he hasn’t been on a stable team in a while. Really hope he’s back in the league soon
he has discipline dawg he just always gets the short end of the stick. if you ever met or played with the guy yk he’s the most untoxic guy out there and is INSANE at the game he understands it so well and there’s pros like alec(no offense) that probably belong in challengers rn but illey DEFINITELY does not
Who ever wants to know the truth - Illey unfortunately got addicted to pain killers he was taking to numb the pain in his thumb. His family/close friends decided he needed to go to rehab after quite a while of this being an ongoing problem. Illey has shown a lot of progress throughout this process and will return to Call of Duty. Plz don’t ask who I am or how I know this because a bunch of people would feel like i’m backstabbing his privacy, but I feel like the community deserves to know. Addiction is a disease that can take ahold of anyone. Including you and your loved ones. All it takes is a couple prescriptions your doctor gives you. I hope us a community can start looking at addiction in a different light.
Gonna be completely honest i used to take Adderall when i was heavy into ranked gamemodes on cod and overwatch and it definitely gave me an advantage and i could play for HOURS even sometimes id take more and stay up for a day or two. Its kinda crazy how much it helps someone be good at video games
being a movement demon doesnt make you pro material. Playing respawns as a team is a whole different aspect, you must know about teamplay, positioning, rotations, making good calls, and finding a player that fits on all that aspects is hard tbh
I know I can’t be the only one here to know this, but I know that kind of struggle, I’m no Pro and not sure I could be, but I did do tons of Competitive in games I really enjoyed playing and had some great sprees of success and some bad sprees. I can tell u first hand tho having things repeatedly go against u and blame u and point at u and u this and it’s u that can have an impact on your mental state 100%, I stayed focused on the games I Loved competing in, after that tho I played for fun. When you have team problems and chemistry problems too it can add up to be devastating blows mentally and performance wise as well. I can understand the Pain, maybe just maybe we’ll see 1 more iLLEY comeback!
It sucks bc illey is a top tier player but ever since that thumb issues in vanguard with us on optic it’s just been downhill for him and even tho he doesn’t play for us anymore it still hits the heart an I wish him the best
in my opinion, illey is the player with the highest potential in COD history. i really hope he gets back to where he deserves to be which is on stage at the top, and that we get to witness his peak. regardless of what happens, i hope illey is healthy and is able to succeed in whatever he does in his life
I think he must’ve felt pressure to perform coming back from his injury, or simple addiction but I know he doesn’t need it, one of the best snipers in the league on his day, not many players in history could take the snipe off Bruce
@@jakeonyx4775 I'm totally speculating and have no idea what was going on, but coming from someone who was an addict and has got clean, you wouldn't just randomly stop using for a year to go bang on it again like this, he was probably kept in check better in optic though.. Having scump, hecz etc there knowing the signs after Maniac is better than the situation he's in now. the fact he had it in his clan tag at 14 is pretty telling too unfortunately, I like inder though and hope he gets better.
@@jakeonyx4775 I would definitely agree, he was probably more well looked after in that org because they've seen it and were on top of it, it's the only way you can function when you're like it
You said hes not filled his potential which is understandable, but he is also world champ albeit online. He did win on LAN too. Most would take that and run. Good content as usual (Y)
It’s one of those stories where I feel bad for the pope but at the same time I feel he dug himself that hole.. either way I hope he comes back better than ever ❤️
I feel like Illey realized that Seattle Surge picking him up was his last chance to prove himself in the league. After the thumb injury I think bro decided to start taking addy to give himself an edge. A majority of matches are still played online, so I highly doubt he is the only one. He just fucked up and upped the dosage when he got to Lan. You do not get an interview like that off pain killers.
I remember this kid, I never knew his name or who he was but word traveled to the some smaller 3rd world countries that were was a kid who was 14-15yo that was DAMN good but he couldn’t compete bc of his age. Looks like he did make it in the league after he turned 18 thats dope
i hate that we're still wondering whats happening with Illey because above all else the community just wants to know that he is ok. We'd rather hear from him in any way possible than sit here and guess if he's benched or something much more tragic.
As a person who has taken the adhd medication adoral and not been able to get my prescribed medication bc of the now restrictive restriction for ADHD meds. I have no love for those who abuse the medication needed by millions who can’t get it, bc of those who abuse it.
I continued to be amazed at the fact that you guys only have 40 something k subs. Makes no sense. You can't call yourself a true cod fan and not be subbed to this channel man. We have more than this watching most events so how tf don't you have at least 100k?? Best cod content/history place by far 🔥
Imma just say, if you watch his past interviews and the recent one from the last major. It is night and day that he was tweaking off something like adderral. His eyes and the way he was talking says it all. He got caught and the only way to stay with a team and continue playing was to not play this whole major.
If the league was the way it used to be. He would probably be on a team that could beat some of the pro teams and have a crazy comeback to be placed pro,but the challengers league takes that great storyline away.
The first time I did adderall, I decided to play halo 4 instead of doing homework and I swear I could’ve taken tsquared in his prime 1v1. Now the vyvanse(because adderall has been phased out) gives me a minor edge, but if you’re playing esports you need the extra dopamine.
Addy is meant to calm you down and help you focus and control your behaviour not tweak out like your break dancing. It could have been the fact that because the crowd were being somewhat loud etc could have thrown him off as he said on Twitter. But that makes no sense as in the interview he done backstage afterwards he was doing the same thing and there were prolly like max 5 people there if that.
@@Jack0503 In therapeutic dosages to someone with ADHD it is meant to calm someone down. Take double of what is prescribed, and most people would be tweaking just like him.
@@Jack0503It’s amphetamine. It’s called “speed” for a reason. It helps people with ADHD focus, but for people without that condition it is basically like a meth high without nearly as much euphoria. So yeah, tweaking on addys is what you do when you abuse them.
I had an infected cyst on my fuckin coccyx! Two surgeries it took, a week in hospital the 2nd time and a month of having dressing changed by a nurse everyday. It was baaaaad!
I hate reading the lips and seeing what these winning teams are yelling to the losing teams. Calling them trash, they’re awful, get the F out, etc. It’s disgusting. Be better.
@@ReboundProdigyshut the fuck up about floptic bro they got one fucking win in the CDL era shut the absolute fuck up please. Nysl Toronto and faze till floptic can prove otherwise and I'm not talking winning one fucking lan in a year they need a champs win plus another event till then they are a complete fuckin joke. Numbers don't lie and they don't do any favors to that team lol
i used to play with agony, fakie, gaziii, rug, optic and xgen. I ran top 5 N/A out of 50 for MW2. we've played and scraped SoaR so many times when then came out after my clan AnTix Gaming. I'm about to run up another clan and get this bruh on the roster
This is the kind of content that could go viral even outside of the usual cod fan base. Amazing work.
Thanks Carsey!
Seriously your killing bro love these videos
❤ Appreciate it Loaft
@@BreakingPointGGI love documentary videos like this just a minute in I know to get my popcorn ready ❤
from apex
His clan tag being Addy in the first clips really just brings us full circle. Hope the best for him, I want to see him back in the league.
Wishing Illey the best.
illey became ill
Illey was legit the SnD grim reaper I swear he would will surge to victory some maps
He has to be up there as one of the best SnD players of all time. I mean to singlehandedly do that against other pro teams on LAN is nutty.
Illey,F3ro, Phizzurp,Brack,Blazt,Zyback were all GODs of SnD, Especially jetpacks era.
@@TreyBeamadam k1lla sloss as well.
He was dropping 14 bombs consistently. Actually obsurd
@@PharaohYTC yeah forgot about Adam cant have phizz and f3ro without Him, him and Ibads arguments with Rizma back in the day were hilarious.
I wish Inder the best. He is the guy that put me on the map in my time.
Lmao he rockin the ADDY clan tag at 2:13 😂
lmaoo
🤫
lmaoooo no wayyyy im fucking crying
BRO WAS FOURTEEN. That’s fucked
Everyone’s on it anyway who cares
I’ve never seen anyone play Snd as consistently and analytically as iLLeY. On a top team, if he’s healthy he can be a superstar like on major 1 vanguard.
This dude is legitimately so talented when he’s playing. It’s such a shame that he hasn’t been on a stable team in a while. Really hope he’s back in the league soon
With the removal of the entry fee cost I think it’s possible
I kinda agree with you on CW Empire and Surge, but he was the instability for OpTic Texas.
I know tmac was so good
Illey was addicted to beans that kid was rolling hard 😂
Dude the only time I feel like ive ever seen someone talk like that they were rolling hard on sone mdma
@@christiansteen9226 yea that’s not adderall if you asked me.
What a video. Can’t wait to see iLLeY back on stage.
Illey is really a talented player just with discipline he would be at the top
he has discipline dawg he just always gets the short end of the stick. if you ever met or played with the guy yk he’s the most untoxic guy out there and is INSANE at the game he understands it so well and there’s pros like alec(no offense) that probably belong in challengers rn but illey DEFINITELY does not
@@fact0r723he has NO discipline if he can’t take the time to heal and goes against his doctors word.
He was geekin’ in that interview.
lol absoLUTEY geekin!
Yeah yeah, just like yeah
The fact that there was no official announcement on the roster move is CRAZY!
Who ever wants to know the truth -
Illey unfortunately got addicted to pain killers he was taking to numb the pain in his thumb. His family/close friends decided he needed to go to rehab after quite a while of this being an ongoing problem.
Illey has shown a lot of progress throughout this process and will return to Call of Duty.

Addiction is a disease that can take ahold of anyone. Including you and your loved ones. All it takes is a couple prescriptions your doctor gives you. I hope us a community can start looking at addiction in a different light.
And he’s a world champ, so he will have no trouble getting more. Wish him the best that makes sense.
Also people gonna be hating on illey because it’s pain pills, but players like Huke have openly come out about using adderal.
Why would that be a reason to hate? It’s well known the US has an opioid epidemic
@@RRich100 good question it isn’t.
PiLLey 💊
imagine taking a little 3 month break and people say you disappeared 😂
😂
I badly want illey to get better and come back strong, he's such a fantastic talent but demons have been ruining that since the injury
I've worked security at night clubs for 5 years, the Kid is on drugs for sure
I’ve worked in a corporate office for 10 years, the kid is definitely on drugs
I’ve worked serving at a Thai restaurant for 2 years, the Kid is on drugs for sure
ive worked at the strip club for 4 years the Kid is on drugs for sure
I’ve worked at chucky cheese and this kid is on drugs
I’m on drugs, and this kid is definitely on drugs for sure
Crazy to think he was a world champion so young and we might not ever know his true potential
Addy only had a limited life time till it affects you.
iLLeY was just released from Surge about an hour ago today.
Gonna be completely honest i used to take Adderall when i was heavy into ranked gamemodes on cod and overwatch and it definitely gave me an advantage and i could play for HOURS even sometimes id take more and stay up for a day or two. Its kinda crazy how much it helps someone be good at video games
This is SO good. Excellent work here
MW 2019 had so many Anonymous Controller Movement Demons on Console who could have went Pro but it’s just hard to get your name out there
being a movement demon doesnt make you pro material. Playing respawns as a team is a whole different aspect, you must know about teamplay, positioning, rotations, making good calls, and finding a player that fits on all that aspects is hard tbh
Movement is literally the least important factor 😂 clown
@@raulramosariste7817that’s why he said “who could have went pro” read homeboy
Thumb injury from playing cod is wild 😂😂
Another bang out production guys! Holy shit!
I know I can’t be the only one here to know this, but I know that kind of struggle, I’m no Pro and not sure I could be, but I did do tons of Competitive in games I really enjoyed playing and had some great sprees of success and some bad sprees. I can tell u first hand tho having things repeatedly go against u and blame u and point at u and u this and it’s u that can have an impact on your mental state 100%, I stayed focused on the games I Loved competing in, after that tho I played for fun.

imagine workin your azz off to get back in Top-Form, but get kicked from a team for being too good bc of gossip 🥴🥴smh
Same thing happened to me racist ASF istg
Great work on the video!! We need more of this!
iLLeY is a beast player i hope he can get off that crap man and just be locked in with some red bull instead.
It sucks bc illey is a top tier player but ever since that thumb issues in vanguard with us on optic it’s just been downhill for him and even tho he doesn’t play for us anymore it still hits the heart an I wish him the best
Who is “us” lol
bro thinks he's part of the team
@@vvinters. lol facts. Haven’t seen this guy on the main stage once! 😂
“disappeared” i’ve got something to tell u Rab…..
Great video hope to see him back
Whatever happens I hope that iLLeY can resolve whatever was happening come back and win again, this situation has been pretty puzzling
in my opinion, illey is the player with the highest potential in COD history. i really hope he gets back to where he deserves to be which is on stage at the top, and that we get to witness his peak.
regardless of what happens, i hope illey is healthy and is able to succeed in whatever he does in his life
love illey man, hope he gets back in
“oddshot that” brought me back for a sec
Fr man the good ole days
switching to your secondary is faster than reloading
I thought he worked at coolkicks 😂
illey was tweaking on addy too hard, homie looked like he was on fuckin meth in that interview.
Naw him skipping across the map in 4 seconds on b03 was insane lol
I think he must’ve felt pressure to perform coming back from his injury, or simple addiction but I know he doesn’t need it, one of the best snipers in the league on his day, not many players in history could take the snipe off Bruce
If he's been using the whole time though is he that good without it? Can he even function without it?
@@onthemarkgaming9718 I don’t think he was using heavily at optic but I wouldn’t be surprised if him and Huke did it on Empire

brother he has been on addy way before the pros.. i remember watching him when he was just playing challs, online tournaments, etc..
He went from looking normal to a crack addict when he comes back on surge
I've taken many drugs. I have not taken Adderall, but that was definitely some drug stuff. Hoping the best for illey! Thank you Rab.
Thank you dabz
he's linked to being on Adderall.. and as a former abuser i would often disappear from social media and life.
i hope illey is alright man.

dude slammed his whole career just because he refused to rest his thumb multiple times, gg what a throw
Feels like D rose when he got injured he wasn’t the same but before that he was projected to break records
Clayster-“ no one deserves to be dropped from this team” …. “ Ultimately clayster was dropped jajajajajaja
Getting banned for addy is soft asf
Thanks for spoiling the video
in iLLeY we trust
losing a video game career due to injury is crazy
If the league was the way it used to be. He would probably be on a team that could beat some of the pro teams and have a crazy comeback to be placed pro,but the challengers league takes that great storyline away.

Reminds me of what happened to John, if you know you know.
shi coulda been at least 30 min if yall elaborated on his snd career before he even was a pro :'(
