Team Liquid has benched L1NK, continues to trial AREA as coach. They will likely field a replacement tomorrow v Natus Vincere. The replacement is likely NOT to be the permanent 5th. L1NK will likely enter restricted free agency.
Luminosity has departed VALORANT "for the foreseeable future". This is very likely having to due with franchising, with them likely not getting a spot next year. The roster will play under the LG banner for the remainder of stage 2. They are restricted free agents. They will still be paid for the remainder of their contract.
