Hawk

Hawk, known by his given name Gabriel Gomes, is a support player who competes in the CBLOL for CNB e-Sports Club. Listed as hailing from the United States, he brings his talents to Brazil’s top-flight competition, joining one of the more historically familiar names in the region’s League of Legends landscape.

The Support Role

Support may be the least flashy position on the map, but it is among the most influential. A support player forgoes personal gold and farm to empower teammates, prioritizing vision control, protective utility, and the setup of decisive engagements. From the earliest moments of laning, the support shares the bot lane with the team’s marksman, shielding, healing, or locking down enemies to give their carry room to grow.

Vision and Vision Alone

Great supports are the eyes of their team. By placing and clearing wards, they map the enemy’s movements and prevent ambushes, granting their squad the information needed to make confident decisions around objectives. Beyond vision, the role frequently carries the responsibility of initiating fights or peeling for vulnerable allies, meaning a support’s timing and positioning can quietly dictate whether a teamfight is won or lost. Hawk shoulders these duties for CNB e-Sports Club, playing the selfless glue that holds a roster together.

Competing in the CBLOL means facing a demanding schedule and a deep pool of talent, an environment that tests a support’s game sense and communication night after night. For a player like Hawk, the role offers a path to influence outcomes without ever topping a scoreboard.

As his career develops, Hawk’s value will be measured less in individual statistics and more in the success of those around him. Should he continue refining his vision game and shot-calling, the support has every opportunity to become an indispensable presence for his side in the seasons ahead.
