For almost half a decade, Matthew "HotanCold" Stevens has only really known one team. While the landscape of North American Rainbow 6 Siege changed around him, his spot alongside fellow teammates Pojoman and Mint remained as safe as ever. For a while they were NA's longest serving "core" and, despite never bringing home any trophies, were fan favourites in our entire esport. Things began to change after the team signed to DarkZero with Pojoman being the first to fall. Unexpectedly, and quite some time later, HotanCold would be next to depart the team in the spring of 2021. With only a few days to find a new squad, HotanCold moved to Mirage to play alongside and guide a relatively new team. A newly reinvigorated HnC would dominate the NAL that stage, putting up some of the best numbers across both the League and his career. He now finds himself with big shoes to fill as Canadian's permanent replacement on Spacestation Gaming's roster. While he may not actively seek the spotlight like some of his colleagues, HotanCold is as effortlessly charismatic, entertaining, and emotional as ever.
