After playing for a struggling MAD Lions MAD Lions Inactive BlackHeart Hasan Hammad bjor Joseph Bjorklund N4RRATE Marshall Massey Ange Adam Milian Trick Justin Sears in 2023's NA Challengers, N4RRATE made waves in his franchising debut. Coming off a disastrous season, Karmine Corp looked to turn a new leaf in 2024 with a fresh new roster. They found early success, toppling the previously dominant FNATIC FNATIC Europe Unranked Boaster Jake Howlett Chronicle Timofey Khromov Alfajer Emir Ali Beder and the hot new Team Heretics Team Heretics Europe Unranked MiniBoo Dominykas Lukaševičius Wo0t Mert Alkan RieNs Enes Ecirli benjyfishy Benjamin David Fish Boo Ričardas Lukaševičius to qualify for Masters Madrid as the first seed from EMEA. While they were eliminated in the Swiss Stage at Madrid, N4RRATE gave a standout performance, being the highest rated player in the tournament.

bang had become a staple of the 100 Thieves roster, having played the controller role under the organization for nearly three years. Throughout their time together, they have found various levels of success. Their first accomplishment was winning the North American LCQ in 2022 to qualify to Champions. More recently, in 2024, they won Stage 1 of the Americas league and reached top four at Masters Shanghai. However, after Shanghai, the team slipped in form and failed to qualify to Champions. 100 Thieves recently announced his departure from the organization, with bang stating that it was the “hardest decision of [his] career.”

N4RRATE and bang have big shoes to fill, replacing two of Valorant's most prolific players, especially coming off of Sentinel's 2024 season. With a tournament victory at Masters Madrid and a top four placement at Champions, they were arguably the most successful team from Americas throughout the year.
