EDG are the only team qualified to Champions: Seoul, despite having only won one match in international events this year. After their loss to Wolves Esports, EDG are now on a three-game losing streak, their worst record in VCT since their 2022 debut.

S1Mon has most recently played in both the Taiwan/Hong Kong Challengers and the Chinese T2 circuit, where he helped his teams qualify to the respective main event. He also reached third place in Split 1 of TW/HK Challengers. He has primarily played Omen, but has also flexed onto flash initiators.
