9z started their journey in the ESL Pro League Season 18 quite unsuccessfully, as they lost to FaZe and Imperial without any chances. However, entering the last chance bracket, the team pulled themselves together and won three matches in a row against M80, Apeks, and 5yclone. 9z became the second team to reach the playoffs after two losses at the start. The first was 00NATION in the ESL Pro League Season 17.
