MUMBAI: When the battle drops in Riyadh, S8ul will be ready. The Indian esports juggernaut has unveiled its global Call of Duty: Warzone roster for the upcoming Esports World Cup 2025, assembling a seasoned trio from north America to carry its flag on the global stage.
The new lineup includes Colin Bowers-Wilson (Trikempathy), Braxton Trice (Braxtvn), and Ryder Skarzinski (Ryda)—three players known for their skill, discipline, and grit. With this announcement, S8ul becomes the first Indian organisation to field a dedicated Warzone team internationally, setting its sights on dominance beyond its home turf.
“We are proud to mark a historic milestone as the first Indian organization to enter the global Call of Duty: Warzone esports arena. Trikempathy, Braxtvn, and Ryda are outstanding athletes whose skill, discipline, and mindset reflect the values we uphold at S8ul. This move reinforces our long-term commitment to elevating Indian representation across all competitive gaming genres and competing with excellence on the world stage”, said S8ul co-founder & CEO Animesh Agarwal.
Leading the squad is in-game shotcaller Braxtvn, a calm tactician with over $64,000 (approx. Rs 54.5 lakhs) in prize winnings and consistent top-10 finishes at events like the World Series of Warzone and NYSL Warzone Gauntlet. Trikempathy brings aggressive finesse with more than $47,000 (approx. Rs 40 lakhs) earned, while Ryda adds fresh firepower with $15,000 (approx. Rs 12.7 lakhs) in winnings and a fanbase exceeding 450,000.
“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. S8ul has established a strong legacy in esports, and we are proud to contribute to that journey. With their backing, we are ready to challenge ourselves and compete at the highest level throughout the year”, said Braxtvn.
The Warzone announcement follows S8ul’s recent strategic plays in Apex Legends, chess, and StarCraft II, including high-profile signings like GuMiho, Nihal Sarin, and Sharky. With its expanding footprint and elite roster across genres, S8ul is building an esports empire stitched together with precision, ambition, and global intent.
