Paintbrush signed with the Gladiators ahead of the 2020 season. The support played his first games of the year with the Overwatch League team in a series again the Boston Uprising in May, in which the Gladiators lost 2-3. The Gladiators later made it to the May Melee tournament quarterfinals, where they were knocked out of contention by the Philadelphia Fusion.

Paintbrush’s departure from the team leaves the Gladiators with the Finnish support duo of Jonas “Shaz” Suovaara and Benjamin “BigG00se” Isohanni. The pair are the only remaining members of the Los Angeles Gladiator’s original season one lineup.
