Thanks for all the information, do you know anything about some korean overwatch players going to Valorant?

-tehbotol, frostmind, and berserx join Boom Esport, become 5 man team including blazeking and flipzjder

• eeyore rumoured to join xcn or beast esport

damn why patiphan will miss u

South Asia :
The Skyesports Championship 3.0 also ended with Velocity Gaming taking home the 1st position and 1,200,00 INR ( ~ 15k USD ) prize money

U should try for moderation at vlr lol pretty good summ up .:!)

Probably why the Bren roster swapped to secret, wants d a competent orgp

Who cars

Zesbeew only acted as a standin.

Japan

• Cyclops Athlete Gaming (CAG) have joined VALORANT and currently looking for people to join its VALORANT division

Guys keep an eye on Spear gaming, they are pretty hot rn

WAITTT DETONATION IS IN VALO? damn i mean their PUBG was not too bad but wow valorant really is getting bigger

thanks for all the info. well done

Nice write up

Pretty cool mate ! :D

thats what i plan to do :)

Thanks for the updates! I'm excited to see how the DMG team turns out. They already have a good core 3 with t3xture, iNTRO and Jeong Hi and now they are probably going to sign the #1 Korean Sova player. DMG is looking scary, especially after how well they did at APAC LCQ. Also maybe they could finish their roster with Suggest and they would probably be able to compete against VS. It's also exciting to see another former MVP.PK player come to Valorant as well as the T1 PUBG guys(I don't watch PUBG but there's more people in Valorant). I hope more orgs enter Korea since, right now, it really seems like it's just VS, Nuturn, DMG and TNL that are somewhat good and I also hope the Asian cs guys switch over since they aren't really doing much in cs(The best Asian cs team could only beat Sharks at Stockholm). Anyways this is all pretty exciting stuff for the future of APAC Valorant.

well not the same case but yea pubg to vlr again

Can't wait for next Edition :D
