Toronto Ultra\u2019s roster went through a major overhaul over the offseason. The organization parted ways with Call of Duty legend Ben Bance and star player Cameron \u2018Cammy\u2019 McKilligan as they welcomed upcoming stars Scrappy and Standy in their place. Now only two Major tournaments into the season, Standy has been moved to the substitute position and another new face joins the fray. Toronto Ultra bench Standy for Hicksy in surprise Major 3 qualifiers roster move The move was announced on February 18 and shocked the entire community. \u201cAs of today, we will be moving Standy to a substitute position and Hicksy will be moving to the starting roster,\u201d the organization said. The squad had only played one match in the Major 3 qualifiers so far, a 1-3 loss to Boston Breach, in which Standy went -11 in terms of K\/D, resulting in a 0.86 overall. After the news broke, Standy wasted no time in responding to the news. \u201cJust gotta work on myself and become the player I know I\u2019m capable of [being].\u201d Hicksy has been part of the Toronto Ultra organization since 2022, first competing under the Toronto Ultra NA Challengers banner in February before eventually joining the squad as their substitute in October.
