For most of his Valorant career, kon4n has shared the server with the same players, often found alongside Matheus "matheuzin" Lima and Leon "ryotzz" Felipe. The remaining two slots have been filled by a multitude of players as the squad jumped from free agency, to paiN Gaming paiN Gaming Inactive matheuzin Matheus Lima kon4n Vitor Hugo ryotzz Leon Felipe murizzz Murillo Tuchtenhagen pepa Matheus Colleto , and back to free agency, only be picked up by TBK Esports for 2022.
Under TBK, kon4n would go on to achieve the highest honors of his career. Noted for his duelist and — later in the year — initiator play, kon4n helped TBK become a Brazilian mainstay. They made it into Stage 1: Challengers, where a successful 3-1 group stage ensured they would return in Stage 2. Despite kon4n being his team's top performer, TBK couldn't replicate their results in the next Challengers, but had still amassed enough points for the South American LCQ.
kon4n's LCQ brought him and the team back into the limelight, despite an early 2-1 loss to KRÜ Esports KRÜ Esports Latin America South Rank #3 keznit Angelo Mori Mazino Roberto Rivas adverso Benjamín Poblete mta Nicolás González Shyy Fabian Usnayo Melser Marco Eliot Machuca Amaro .

TBK's path to Champions ended with a 3-0 loss in the lower final to FURIA, bringing a bittersweet end to the team's year as they were let go in October.
For FURIA, the 2023 VCT season is the team's most important so far and their chance to drop their "best of the rest" reputation in Brazil. Despite being constantly deprived of Masters appearances, FURIA has always found success in the South American LCQ and has attended both Champions events, exiting in the top 16 both times.
FURIA's international debut in 2023 is scheduled for February 24, when they face T1 T1 Korea Rank #2 stax Kim Gu-taek (김구택) Meteor Kim Tae-O (김태오) Sylvan Ko Young-sub (고영섭) BuZz Yu Byung-chul (유병철) iZu Ham Woo-ju (함우주) in the Omega bracket at VCT LOCK//IN.
