The #14 Player of the Black Ops 6 season is the Tissue that’s an issue, Tobias “CleanX” Juul Jønsson of the Toronto Ultra.
In his seventh competitive season, and sixth with the Toronto Ultra, CleanX continued to display his trademark speed and elite slaying output. After ranking 10th in last year’s Top 20 and 11th in 2022, Tobi once again delivered top-tier SMG numbers. While the Ultra didn’t claim a championship this season, they secured three 3rd-place finishes and never placed lower than Top 6. CleanX remained a crucial contributor all year long, finishing with a 1.03 overall K/D and a 92.9 Slayer Rating. More than just a relentless entry SMG, CleanX proved once again that he’s here to stay.
The Toronto Ultra entered the 2025 CDL season with high expectations, building off a strong finish in Modern Warfare 3 that included a Major title. With a returning core of CleanX and Jamie “Insight” Craven, along with a seasoned coaching staff, Ultra were viewed as contenders from the jump. Acquiring Joseph "JoeDeceives" Romero and Ben "Beans" McMellon brought a slaying punch to the roster. While they didn’t lift any trophies during the Black Ops 6 campaign, the team remained a constant threat, earning multiple Top 4 finishes and ending the year with a strong showing at the Esports World Cup to solidify their top-tier status.
Toronto came out hot in Stage 1, finishing the online qualifiers with a 6-1 record to secure the #2 seed for Major I in Madrid. Their teamwork and refined respawn game gave them momentum going into the bracket. However, they stumbled in the Minor, losing 2-3 to Minnesota in their opening match.

At the Major, the Ultra began with a dominant sweep over Vancouver but hit a wall against Atlanta FaZe, falling 0-3 in Winners Round 2. Dropping to the Lower Bracket, they were edged out in a nail-biting Game 5 loss to Carolina, finishing Top 6. Despite the early exit, the team showed strong form in both Hardpoint and Control.
In Stage II, Toronto shook off their Madrid finish, posting a solid 5-2 record in online qualifiers with a 15-12 map count, good for the 3rd seed. Their SND looked strong, but their Hardpoint was shaky, and slaying efficiency was inconsistent. The Minor highlighted both extremes: they dominated OpTic Texas 3-0 before getting swept by the Surge. It was clear some fine-tuning was needed before the Major.
At Major II in Texas, Ultra suffered a surprising 0-3 loss to New York to start bracket play. But they quickly rallied. With Lower Bracket sweeps over Gentle Mates, OpTic, Breach, and Thieves, Toronto fought their way into Championship Sunday. Ultimately, they fell short in a 1-3 loss to the Surge, placing 3rd. The gritty Lower Bracket run was a statement about the team’s resilience.

Stage III brought more online dominance, with Ultra going 4-1 in qualifiers and earning the 5th seed. Their Hardpoint took a leap forward, finishing 7-2 with the League’s best win percentage (77.8%) and an eye-popping 52.6% break rate. That progress fueled high hopes for Boca Raton.
Unfortunately, Major III started the same as the last, with an opening-round loss to the Miami Heretics. But again, the Ultra responded. Wins over the Gentle Mates (3-0), Rokkr (3-1), Breach (3-1), and revenge over the Heretics (3-2) propelled them to another deep run. Yet again, they were halted by the Vancouver Surge in the Lower Final. Another 3rd-place finish, but the Ultra continued to prove their top-tier potential.
Stage IV saw Toronto return with battle-hardened confidence. They finished the qualifiers with a 3-2 record and a 10-8 map count, securing an Upper Bracket seed for the fourth straight stage. But their Major-opening struggles persisted, as they dropped to the Lower Bracket following a Round 1 loss to OpTic Texas. While they bounced back with wins over the Gentle Mates (3-1) and Royal Ravens (3-2), they couldn’t get past the Thieves in a 1-3 elimination loss. Their Top 6 exit reignited questions about whether this core had the ceiling to win it all.

At Champs, Ultra entered as a dark horse contender. They opened strong with a 3-1 win over the Royal Ravens but were swept by OpTic in the next round. A Lower Bracket loss to Vancouver sent them home in 5th/6th once again, consistent, but just shy of greatness.
The Esports World Cup presented one final shot at redemption. Ultra made a bold roster move, benching Beans in favor of rookie Abe. The gamble worked early, as they dominated pool play with wins over the Falcons and Breach.
In bracket play, they swept OMiT in Round 1 before falling to their nemesis, the Vancouver Surge, in the Semifinals. They recovered in the 3rd-place match, beating the Miami Heretics to finish Top 3, another strong finish and a morale boost heading into the offseason.
Toronto’s 2025 Black Ops 6 season was defined by consistency, resilience, and near-misses. With Top 6 or better in every event, four Top 4 finishes, and a Top 3 placement at EWC, they remained a perennial contender. The focus now turns to how they can retool this foundation into a championship roster for Black Ops 7.
CleanX remained a major contributor across all three modes, though Hardpoint was statistically his third-best. Tobi finished with a 1.01 K/D in the mode, ranking 7th in kills per 10 minutes (26.6) and 1st in engagements per 10 minutes (62.9). His elite tempo created space for his teammates to capitalize. What made him stand out was his consistency; he maintained a 1.01 K/D and 26+ kills per 10 minutes both online and on LAN. He also led the League with 42 Hardpoint maps of 30+ kills, doing so in nearly half (48.3%) of his matches. CleanX's pace remains a rare and invaluable asset.
As a team, Ultra ranked 3rd in Hardpoint with a 52-35 record (59.8%). They had the 2nd-best point margin per map (+20.9) and excelled in both Holds (72.8%, 4th) and Breaks (32.9%, 2nd). They improved slightly on LAN, posting a 26-16 record (61.9%). Their EWC performance stood out; they went 6-2 with a +51.9 margin and led the tournament in rotations (62.7%) and breaking efficiency (40.0%).
CleanX continued to shine in SND. He posted a 1.03 K/D with a team-high 0.77 kills per round, a 51.4% opening duel win rate, and a 104.9 ADR. He also set the season’s single-map kill record with 17 against Carolina. On LAN, his numbers climbed to a 1.10 K/D, 0.80 kills per round, and a 56.6% opening duel win rate. A clear impact player in SND, CleanX was integral to Ultra’s success in the mode.

Toronto began the year strong in SND, going 10-6 in Stage I and 12-5 in Stage II. But their form dipped significantly, finishing 12-22 in the second half. Defense was a glaring weakness; they allowed bomb plants in 63.7% of rounds (11th) and had an underwhelming 35.5% retake rate (8th). Despite this, they were clutch, going 10-3 in Game 5s, showing ice in pressure situations.
Though CleanX finished with a solid 1.06 K/D in Control, his value went beyond the stat sheet. He averaged 22.8 kills (3rd in the League) and 2,781 damage (9th) per 10 minutes, along with 1.2 ticks per attack. On LAN, he dipped slightly to a 1.03 K/D, but maintained high output. He holds the record for highest single-map K/D on LAN, a 2.80 against the Falcons at EWC. Notably, Toronto went 26-3 (89.7%) when CleanX posted a positive K/D, the best mark on the team.
Control was a strong mode for Ultra overall. They posted a 32-22 record (3rd-best in the League), including 18-9 on LAN. They ranked 3rd in attack win rate (46.3%) and defense win rate (65.1%), and finished 2nd in ticks per attack (4.1). At EWC, their dominance continued with a 4-1 record in Control.

CleanX is expected to be one of the most sought-after names in free agency heading into Black Ops 7. After his contract expired with the Toronto Ultra, reports indicate that CleanX will officially test the market for the first time in years. Known as one of the fastest and most aggressive SMGs in the CDL, he further boosted his stock during the Esports World Cup by showcasing his versatility in a flex role, proving he can adapt to whatever a roster needs. His championship experience, consistency in slaying, and selfless playstyle make him a perfect target for top teams looking to round out their lineup. Once rostermania begins to heat up, expect CleanX to be at the center of multiple team-building discussions.
