===Beybladers===
Shade's known TF2 career started on an ancient team that competed in ESEA-O the Beyblayders. Shade played [[Soldier]] for the team and brought great success to season, their first season of ESEA-O. The team ended the regular season (12-4-0), and placed 2nd in playoffs. The team outplayed other names such as xensity, Vector Gaming, and High Rollers Gaming (not the Invite one)
===[[Don't Trip]]/the “tyrone” teams===
Shade took a brief break from competing in ESEA, and was later picked up, as [[Medic]] by upcoming [[ESEA-I (Invite)]] team, [[Don’t Trip]]. Shade played the first match for [[Don’t Trip]] in the second week, and scored 4-0 against Mighty Ducks, a team consisting of both invite legends [[seanbud]] and [[Decimate]]. By the end of the season, [[Don’t Trip]] placed first in [[ESEA-I (Invite)]] playoffs, and finished the regular season (12-4-0). The team’s tight cohesion in the combo of [[b4nny]], [[tyrone]], and shade, became a key factor in their success, and one of the most powerful combos of their time. The team took many different sponsorships, such as Quantic Gaming, Leviathan Gaming, iT. The team went through numerous flank classes, from [[blaze]] on [[Scout]] to [[Dave_AC]] on [[Soldier]].
===High Rollers Gaming/the “[[b4nny]]” teams===
After season 12, [[b4nny]], Shade, and [[cyzer]] left the team, forming [[bp]], signed by their sponsor, High Rollers Gaming.  They cherry-picked the best talent they could find, getting [[Taggerung]] from The Chess Club and [[Shrugger]] from Pinball Wizards, as well as lansky from GOIN HEAVY. The team went 16-0 in the regular season before being noticed by High Rollers Gaming and getting sponsored by them for lan. The team was completely dominant except in i49. The team lost against the only european teams, [[broder]] and [[Epsilon E-Sports]]. Shortly after iT decided to sponsor this team, shade was unable to commit to a team and left. Although iT went undefeated in the regular season, they took second in one of the closest finals against [[Classic Mixup]].
===[[froyotech]]===
With the return of shade, [[b4nny]] created a new team under the name of froyotech. The team picked up invite legends including [[clockwork]] and [[Ruwin]] on [[Scout]], [[blaze]] on [[Soldier]], and [[dummy]] on Demoman. The team later decided to cut Ruwin, put [[b4nny]] on [[Scout]] and bring in former pocket of High Rollers Gaming, [[lansky]]. The team asserted their raw dominance from season 16 to 19, winning every [[ESEA-I (Invite)]] final within this period. He also went with the team to the largest international tournaments of TF2, [[[[Insomnia55]], taking first place in a rather dominant style. In Season 20 playoffs, [[froyotech]] experienced issues with their teammates during gameplay and was eliminated when they lost in a best of three against [[Ascent]] and [[Team Solo Uber]]. Shortly after this, the team decided to part ways and disband. [[b4nny]] and [[clockwork]] currently remain along with what remains of [[Strawberry Mangoes]]. Although Shade’s place has been taken by ninjanick, he has made it clear that he had intention of rejoining the team, through various tweets from the @froyotech account.
