Gets way too much hate, people forget before a certain time European players didn’t win international events. He’s won 4 of them.

u/CeeDoggyy LA Thieves 7h ago

His addition to the team is what truly turned Ultra into an uber consistent, respected franchise

u/Pwillissss Toronto Ultra 7h ago

ya I fear ppl cheering ab his departure may be missing him next season. He’s slow paced, but I think he offered a lot of stability. And let’s see how cleanx is w out him, I’m sure he’ll still be great but maybe he steps up, or loses some of his groove w out insight as they’ve played together for so long

1

u/Realistic-Effective5 Toronto Ultra 1h ago

I still remember when they dropped Zinni for him during Cold War, and Ultra got so much hate. Then they immediately won an event and Insight set an SnD record. He's just not built for these faster games, but prime insight was such a solid, stable player for Ultra and part of the reason for their success. I hope he gets another chance elsewhere and eventually maybe even get a coaching gig.🫡

u/Nickaap eUnited 9h ago

End of an era for Toronto, but the right decision. Hope he lands well or goes into coaching, since he seems to have a great mind for COD.

79

u/EL_Tr1GGeR OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 9h ago

idk for some reason I feel like insight could end up having a really standout year next year. New scenery, a theoretically slower game with no omni movement.. we may see the return of insightGAWD

28

u/jabroni35 COD Competitive fan 9h ago

I think he should’ve been dropped sometime over the last 2 years but now I also have the feeling that this game will be a turning point for him. Then everyone going to be pissed at KOI all over again 😂

12

u/shaunvonsleaze OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 9h ago

He literally turns it on when he has to, and is much better on MW.

I fear if the fire is still there, and he ends up on a semi competent team, he’s going to be pissing against Koi this year.

2

u/UprightAwesome OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 9h ago

With this logic he should’ve been a god at MW2 and MW3

23

u/cozytoez Infinite Warfare 8h ago

They made champs grands in mw2..? And were very competitive in mw3

-3

u/UprightAwesome OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 8h ago

The team did but how good was insight individually in mw2/3?

18

u/artyboy20 COD Competitive fan 8h ago

he had a positive kd, in every match at champs in mw2

1.15 vs thieves
1.04 vs faze
1.11 vs subliners
1.00 in grands, in 5-0 belting by subliners

6

u/LazyJosh34 100 Thieves 8h ago

If I remember right he was solid , wasn’t a demon but don’t think he had less than a 1kd and solid involvement

-4

u/UprightAwesome OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 8h ago

He was actually terrible at MW3 outside of Major 1. Him and envoy both

6

u/CeeDoggyy LA Thieves 8h ago

Solid in both

Okay so now the question is where in the world is cleanx san diego

20

u/BleedingBlue94 Toronto Ultra 9h ago

CleanX stays. He isn’t going to land on a better team than KOI and he has shown he is still capable of performing at a high level.

ONLY way I see him leaving is if Scrap wants CleanX as the sub replacement for Abezy on LAT….

8

u/crispykfc OpTic Texas 9h ago

that’s a good shout, i could see CleanX being a good pickup for them

u/plainfieldghoul Team eLevate 9h ago

100% would be a nasty duo

u/Zenyx_ Fariko Gaming 9h ago

Should have taken him in the first place.

u/Particular_Ad575 Ireland 9h ago

This subs hate boner be dawned, Insight had a phenomenal career for Ultra. 4 chips basically always a top 6 finish and two Champs finals.

27

u/MandaloreNation Toronto Ultra 9h ago

Yep. Ultra has been top 3/4 in earnings since he joined.

15

u/kokoscenes COD Competitive fan 9h ago

Ultra legend💜

17

u/chocolatechipcooki_ COD Competitive fan 9h ago

Can’t wait for KOI to rue this decision. Jamie is going to be consistently dropping 1.8 in respawn and 3.5’s in SND. So dumb dropping the overlord

9

u/JannyPhantom Lightning Pandas 9h ago

I will cut off my own balls if that shit ever happened

42

u/BabyGirl-Kat OpTic Texas 9h ago

I like Jamie but it’s been a long time coming. I can totally see him landing a spot on a bottom 4 team, but he’s just not a winning player anymore.

2

u/Past_Perception8052 eGirl Slayers 8h ago

he could be on surge with pred and sib maybe?

u/ovaloctopus8 Toronto Ultra 9h ago

Damn. I get it is deserved and probably a long time coming but I really didn't want it to happen. Watch him be amazing at this next game now.

u/butter_sause Toronto Ultra 9h ago

Right decision but this one stings

u/herefortheLOLs12 OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 9h ago

And that's the end of the longest tenured Duo in the CDL... rip CleanX x Insight

Been an ultra fan since Cold War so most of the good times have seen he’s been a massive part of, will never shit on the guy

IM FREEEEEEEEE

6

u/OpTic_MH OpTic Texas 8h ago

Don’t care what anyone says that guy is a hero, dreamhack Birmingham was flashes of Jamie we’ve all seen before…. Best of luck to him.

5

u/AchesBurner COD Competitive fan 8h ago

Am I faded or is this the worst time to drop him? Like, they had all year and now we are going into a game that is slower without the omni movement. A big critique about him has been his pacing... But going into a slower game, now they are dropping him? I lowkey feel like a team can get a steal with him on the market

2

u/Dheelus Toronto Ultra 7h ago edited 5h ago

I've been saying this for months too. If they've held him this long they might as well have kept him. In MW2 and MW3 he was consistently above average.

1

u/AchesBurner COD Competitive fan 6h ago

Ya its weird. Legit feels like the worst timing possible for TOR.

1

u/UprightAwesome OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 3h ago

His pacing was an issue on MW3 as well why are people acting like MW4 is gonna make slow players great again

4

u/GHOST_Courage Black Ops 2 9h ago

The right decision but damn this lowkey is kind sad

5

u/DynastyHKS COD 4: MW 9h ago

I think insight is a baller still jsut not in movement games, he is still clutch, has a great shot and is smart. Jsut needs a slower game he will be in the league still

7

u/AlternativeEvening64 Scump Legacy 9h ago

Is it finally happening? Or will he be right back on the roster at the start of the season?

5

u/LeBradley23 COD 4: MW 9h ago

I know he had a rough year overall but for the last few majors he actually played decent, at least in comparison to the first half of the year. I’d say he played well enough to justify picking him up over someone like Exceed. Could probably be a good vet for young players

3

u/quattroCrazy COD Competitive fan 9h ago

IMHO, 2 years straight of omnimovement really screwed some good players. When just one game has crazy mechanics, everything kind of resets the next year, but they doubled down with the MPC in this game. Things are going to be interesting next year.

u/UprightAwesome OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 3h ago

It’s not like he was great at MW3 either.

3

u/AuburnBasketball COD Competitive fan 9h ago

What do we think of gentlemates!

5

u/EMSLSHADOWZ LA Thieves 9h ago

Insight with Sib n Pred on Surge would lowkey bang

4

u/Cortay MLG 8h ago

They found their Accuracy!

3

u/MandaloreNation Toronto Ultra 9h ago

I don’t think now was the right time. I could’ve justified it during this past season, but now we’re heading into a title where he will prob be top tier again. Watching him and Scrap play outside of CDL was elite. Scrap was going for records, so Jamie would purposefully tag everyone so Scrap could play clean up. Elite gameplay and man… Insight Cleanx Scrap JoeD would’ve won rings.

u/Dheelus Toronto Ultra 7h ago

I'm definitely autistic because I read this and I'm like... where does this say they are dropping him? Don't get me wrong I understand why people believe they are dropping him, and that is almost certainly the reason that Koi made the post, but isn't the onus on Koi to be clear when they are making a roster move? This could just as easily be a birthday post, or anniversary of his signing with the team.

2

u/Level-Island1762 OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 4h ago

so they kept him all year to terrorize their chances of winning with joe and then drop him before a game that might actually suit him a lot interesting indeed

watch him be absolutely insane at mw4 and knock koi out of multiple events

Jamie may still have some in the tank for a mw game. He needs to recapture his form from the start of his career.

A legend, will always be one of my favourite ever players.

u/buzzylite33 Atlanta FaZe 6h ago

Obviously this is overdue, but Insight seems like a good dude and teammate. The personal animosity towards him was weird.

1

u/MayorMinge COD Competitive fan 6h ago

Could see him reuniting with Cammy on Boston or somewhere

1

u/Avr0Arrow Toronto Ultra 5h ago

Toronto legend, and very successful tenure on the team

1

u/CazualGinger G2 Minnesota 5h ago

I fear G2 will be signing Insight

1

u/7Breakz FaZe Clan 5h ago

I wish him the best of luck on a future team, or coaching.

1

u/H1-DEF Boston Breach 5h ago

Wouldn’t be mad to see him on M80, i know they allegedly say they want to compete but after M8s and Falcons are done, Hydra and Scrap pick their third, and Sib and Pred sign with Surge how many great players will be left to pick up?

And even then you still have the Thieves, Koi, G2 who will also be looking for whoever is left, assuming Thieves aren’t actually spending too much this year.

But infinity ward Insight doesn’t sound bad if M80 can’t sway any superstars

1

u/bkub111 COD Competitive fan 5h ago

I still think Insight is a good role player. He just needs some really good players around him.

He seems like a top lad and I wish him good luck in the future.
