Fero began his Call of Duty career with Denial Esports in late 2014, but really took off during the 2017-18 WWII season when a stellar finish to the campaign with Team Kaliber resulted in him being recruited by 100 Thieves for their new Black Ops 4 team. His biggest win came at Stage 2 playoffs in 2018, where he and Team Kaliber took first place and the $200,000 prize. His short spell with 100T was followed by a similarly brief stint with Team Envy and after the season ended, he ultimately failed to land a spot on a Call of Duty League franchise for Modern Warfare, dropping down to the Challengers amateur circuit. However, he became a key midseason acquisition for Florida Mutineers. Since the roster change, Fero and the Mutineers went on to win three CDL Home Series tournaments \u2013 Dallas, Minnesota, and Paris \u2013 tying the league lead with the eventual champions, Dallas Empire. An aggressive SMG player who was willing to take risks with unusual weapon combos, Fero brought energy and flair to the teams he played for. He was regarded as a top tier player throughout his career, and even when he dropped down a level to Challengers, his dedication to perfecting his craft and ability to bounce back from adversity, meant that he returned to the highest level where he belonged. Tributes paid to Fero Following the shocking news, tributes poured in from the CoD community, as pro players, personalities and fans posted messages on social media. \u201cI\u2019m heartbroken, truly at a loss for words,\u201d 100 Thieves CEO, Matt \u2018Nadeshot\u2019 Haag, tweeted. \u201cThank you for everything. Rest in peace, brother.\u201d \u201cCall of Duty scene lost a legend,\u201d Nick \u2018NICKMERCS\u2019 Kolcheff wrote. \u201cWasn\u2019t super close to Fero but we played a few tournaments together, never lost. Played a million tournaments against each other and I never f**kin\u2019 won. Rest easy little bro. Take care of each other, life is precious.\u201d Toronto Ultra star Anthony \u2018Methodz\u2019 Zinni posted, \u201cMy heart is shattered. When we spoke, it was nothing but jokes and laughter. I\u2019m grateful to have teamed with and experienced such a lively passionate person. Rest in peace brother.\u201d I can’t believe this \u2013 I became close with Jay over the past few years \u2013 I’m heartbroken. RIP @f3rocitys, we love you #f3f3f3 \u2014 100T Muddawg (@Muddawg) November 11, 2020 My heart goes out to the friends and family of @f3rocitys.
