Career

RX Foxes

Park began his professional Overwatch career with RX Foxes, playing under head coach Park "Crusty" Dae-hee. As a flex support player, he competed with his team in OGN's APEX series, the largest competitive Overwatch series in South Korea at the time. The team's best finish was in APEX Season 4, where they placed in fourth.

Boston Uprising

In November 2017, Park signed with the Boston Uprising of the newly-formed Overwatch League, where he was reunited with head coach Crusty. Park found success in their 2018 season; posting winning records in both Stage 1 and 2 and recorded a perfect 10–0 record in Stage 3 – the first team ever to accomplish the feat. While the team failed to claim any stage or season titles, Park was selected for the 2018 All-Star Game. However, due to visa issues, he was unable to participate in the All-Star Weekend.

Toronto Defiant

In October 2018, Park signed with new expansion team Toronto Defiant. Park was suspended for the first three games of the 2019 Overwatch League season for selling an account and obstructing league office investigation; these actions were performed before joining the Defiant. While the team struggled throughout the season, Park was selected for the 2019 All-Star Game, the second season in a row he was selected for the honor. The Defiant parted ways with Park in October 2019.

O2 Blast

On December 31, 2019, Korean Overwatch Contenders team O2 Blast announced that Park would be competing with the team for the 2020 season.
