According to their official player bios, released via a press release, the players are all accomplished players with amazing track records.
Aubrey "Prox" Cost placed second in the solo event at Dreamhack Atlanta Elite Series while taking home the award for most kills. He also showed up during the Invitationals 2017, averaging around 30th place.
Derek "Sloth" Diaz is an exciting player that has shown promise with his fifth place finish at Dreamhack Atlanta. He brings existing synergy with the team and a unique perspective due to his experience in a variety of esports outside of H1Z1, including League of Legends
Ryan "Crank" Grandy has played, together with Pineaqples, Yogi and Sloth, for team Denial, taking home fifth place with the team twice. Crank also competed in the solo events at Atlanta, averaging a 25th place finish in the qualifying rounds.
Miguel "Pineaqples" Lopez is a well-known twitch streamer that proven his skill as a competitor. He earned fifth place at both the Fight for the Crown and the Atlanta Elite Series team events, and scored 6th place finish in first game of the solo 2016 invitationals.
Chris “sweetdreams” Sexton is a young H1Z1 player who has already made waves in the professional scene. His career highlights include a first-place finish in the H1Z1 Elite Series Atlanta solo event and a tenth-place finish in the H1Z1 Twitch Invitational solo event.
The H1Z1 Pro League’s inaugural season kicks-off on April 21st, live from Las Vegas, Nevada. Make sure to tune in to watch Echo Fox take on the competition and fight for the title of H1Z1 Pro League champions.
Justin "Mini" Summe is one of the most aggressive solo H1Z1 players and currently holds the world record, at 33, for the most eliminations in a solo Battle Royale. Mini loves H1Z1 and has been advancing competitive gameplay since the beginning by leading his 2015 H1Z1 Showdown team (TA)to victory and by creating the H1Z1 solo tournament scene, the Champions Arena.
