My dear friends and fellow VALORANT enthusiasts, I come to you today as a profoundly saddened man. As a lifelong resident of the United Kingdom and a diehard fan of Team FNATIC, I have been forced to accept the difficult truth that Europe's dominance in esports has come to an end. After witnessing the sheer brilliance and mastery on display from our friends across the pond in North America, I can no longer deny the obvious - NA is just better. The United States has clearly surpassed my dear homeland in skill, talent and results. I fear the glory days of EU VALORANT have slipped into the annals of history, soon to be forgotten. How the years have passed in the blink of an eye! Each new day of life seems to bring a new realization of the depth of my continent's fall from grace. At this point, the only hope for European representation rests on the shoulders of icons Boaster and Soulcas. My brothers in arms, we must shed our delusions of grandeur and accept that we now live in an era of American supremacy! The time has come for us to book one-way tickets across the Atlantic, trading gray skies for sunny beaches and an esports scene still in its prime. Take heart though, fellow Brits and Europeans, for we shall always have the memories of championships past to keep us warm at night after long days of cheering on our NA overlords! The future may be dim but the passion of true fans shall never fade.
