F4Q, a fan favorite team across the VALORANT community has disbanded once more, despite no public announcement being made as of yet.
Originally known for their king slayer title against the 102-game undefeated Vision Strikers, F4Q exploded onto the scene in Masters 3; who gained the reputation of a team of amateurs and streamers looking to make it against the likes of G2 and Sentinels.
A bomb out in both Masters 3: Berlin and the 2021 APAC LCQ led to the then-sponsorless F4Q to disband its current roster; keeping only fiveK at the helm leading into the 2022 season.
Heading into stage 2 of 2022; F4Q returned to the Korean VCT under the name GCA F4Q, representing its sponsor; Game Coach Academy, or Element Mystic, carrying new upcoming talent in the Korean scene such as loaned DRX trainee and content creator BeYN and GOLD.
Unfortunately, fiveK and his teammates could not lead the team to previous successes in the region; losing to Lone Way E-Sports in the final round of the closed qualifier to ultimately lose their chance at making the 2022 VCT season.
Since then, GCA has backed out of the F4Q project and once again, the roster has decided to part ways. It is unknown whether fiveK wants to continue his vision for F4Q to function as a Korean talent scouting team, as he is once again left with no sponsor to the project.
Whether this happens will also have to be decided during the post-Champions season, where new third party tournaments will emerge. This gives the chance for F4Q continue on as an amateur team once again or play under a sponsor’s support.
Before disbanding, GCA F4Q’s roster was:
Yoo “fiveK” Sung-min (유성민)
Kang “BeYN” Ha-bin (강하빈)
Ahn “Hermes” Byeong-wook (안병욱)
Estrella
Geum “GOLD” Chang-wan (금창완)
