Swedish Esports Organization GODSENT has officially announced that it has signed an all-female professional VALORANT team.
While esports organizations like T1, Sentinels and Gen.G have already announced their professional VALORANT rosters, this is the first all-women professional VALORANT team.
The roster primarily consists of former CS:GO and Apex Legends professionals. The new GODSENT VALORANT lineup includes Brazillian player Hosana “Tinyladyy” Kmiecik, Swedish player Lilly “Katti” Lucas, Boina “alikea” Alicia from France and German players Julia “Juju” Steffen and Nicole “nCL” Hanser.

Thus GODSENT's full roster:
It is interesting to see so many popular esports organizations signing rosters before the game has even come out of beta or a proper road map for the professional circuit is established. It is a gamble of course, but if it pays off? Judging by the League of Legends professional circuits, the sky is the limit.
A game very similar to VALORANT, Overwatch recently made history after Se-yeon “Geguri” Kim became the first women to compete at the highest tier of the esport, Overwatch League (OWL).
