Career

Curse Academy left Team Curse and rebranded as Gravity Gaming in January 2015 upon qualifying for the LCS. In April, Gravity was at the top of the NA LCS rankings in part due to the play of Hauntzer. Gravity finished 5th in the Spring LCS Regular Season, qualifying for the playoffs, where they finished 5-6th after being eliminated by Team Impulse. In the following Summer LCS they finished 4th in the Regular Season and then 5-6th in the playoffs.

Yarnell joined Team SoloMid in November, replacing Marcus "Dyrus" Hill at top lane after the latter retired from competitive play. At his first tournament with TSM, Intel Extreme Masters Season X - San Jose, the team finished 5-8th.

Yarnell spent three years with Team SoloMid, and won three titles with the team. He was released after the 2018 season following the organization's failure to qualify for the World Championship.

Golden Guardians signed Yarnell for the 2019 season, and he spent two years with the organization before Golden Guardians ran into funding problems were forced to drop their entire roster, including Yarnell.

After failing to find a team in the LCS, Yarnell accepted a spot on an academy roster with Team SoloMid.

After the 2021 season playing in Academy, Yarnell was released.
