Timeline
On December 7, 2019, Lyon announced that he was retiring from professional Overwatch competition, citing that he felt that he "forcibly stagnated [his] process of learning, growth, and exploration."
Lyon declined tryouts for the 2018 Overwatch World Cup, announcing on Twitter that he had "bigger plans this year". This fueled rumors that Jake would be retiring as a player, either to join a team's coaching staff or to become an in-game broadcaster or "caster". He would later be announced as a caster for the Incheon, South Korea stage of the World Cup qualifiers, paired with veteran caster Andrew "ZP" Rush. As a caster duo, Rush would handle play-by-play casting, and Lyon would handle analysis.
Charismatic and outspoken, Lyon has developed a reputation as a "leading personality amongst players", and is seen as an ambassador to Overwatch and to esports. Financial Review called him "the perfect poster-boy for the sport as it tries to dispel the prejudice that computer-gaming is a lonely pursuit of wastrels and slobs". In July 2018, Lyons was selected as one of two Overwatch League players to attend a summit between the International Olympic Committee and the esports community. The Times-Standard praised the selection, saying that Lyon was "likely one of the best players that could have been selected to publicly represent professional esports on a global scale". A few months prior to the meeting with the IOC, Lyon and Outlaws teammate Shane "Rawkus" Flaherty spoke with Megyn Kelly about the Overwatch League in a segment on The Today Show.
In the months between the World Cup qualifiers and the finals, Lyon was signed to the OpTic Gaming-owned Houston Outlaws, one of the teams in the newly formed Overwatch League. Three of Lyon's World Cup teammates would also go on to be part of the team; Matt "coolmatt69" Iorio had already been signed, and Shane "Rawkus" Flaherty and Russell "FCTFCTN" were signed after Lyon. Partway through the year, Kyle "KyKy" Souder, the 2017 World Cup team coach, also joined Outlaws as an assistant coach. In their inaugural season, the Outlaws would finish with a 22-18 match record, and end the season in 7th place, one spot short of making the end-of-year playoffs.
Jake was selected as the captain of the 2017 United States Overwatch World Cup team. The team qualified for the tournament finals at BlizzCon 2017 through their participation in a qualification tournament in Santa Monica, California. This event was Lyon's first offline tournament in front of a live audience; his previous competitions were online-only. At the main event, the team lost in the quarterfinals in an unexpectedly close series to favorites and eventual tournament-winners South Korea.
Jacob Lyon (born July 28, 1996), better known by his online alias Jake, is an American retired professional Overwatch player who played for the Houston Outlaws in the Overwatch League. Prior to joining the Outlaws, he played for the teams -bird noises-, Hammers Esports, and Luminosity Gaming Evil, and was the captain of the 2017 United States Overwatch World Cup team. After retiring as a player, Jake joined the Overwatch League broadcast team as a caster.
Lyon was born in La Jolla, California, on July 28, 1996. Outside of esports, his interests include outdoor activities such as rock climbing and kayaking. Although Jake is known for being outspoken in and about Overwatch, he considers himself an introverted person, telling Blitz Esports "I always liked time alone and I never feel really relaxed unless I'm by myself".
