This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted.
If you need extra help, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors.

NearbyAlarm31, also known as The King Of Snipers, Dr. Mind Control, Dinkin Flicka or Nearby, is a current American professional Call of Duty player who last played for the Call of Duty League team OpTic Texas. Nearby is a two time Major League Gaming (MLG) MVP. During the Esports Awards in 2023, Nearby won the Esports Clutch Player of the Year award. In August 2023, Nearby earned his first ever Call of Duty major tournament win. Nearby has openly refused sponsorships from several gaming hardware companies, including Turtle Beach and Scuf Gaming. He has already entered the conversations to be considered one of the greatest Call of Duty players of all time, despite being so early in his career.

Call of Duty esports career

Call of Duty: Cold War

This was NearbyAlarm's first season as an amateur player and despite his inexperience on a professional stage, he led his clan, HeatWave Gaming, to notoriety by going on the longest win streak in GameBattles history at 281 wins in a row. HeatWave Gaming has also gained notoriety for offering supermax contracts to players, with Nearby and his teammate IcyWolf gaining the first 2 supermax deals in CDL history.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (2022)

This was NearbyAlarm's breakout season as a professional and again, he led his clan, HeatWave Gaming, who are widely considered to be the best and most innovative CDL Search & Destroy team. They won 3 amateur cups and 12 open LAN tournaments over the course of the season and involved some of the most absurd clutches of all time, including a 36-0 perfect game against Redwalk Gaming on March 3rd, 2023. Nearby stayed on the Modern Warfare circuit despite the game's lifecycle having run its course.
