ONE Team Wins VCL 2023 HK & Taiwan Split 2, Qualifies for VCT Ascension Pacific
All set for the regional finals.
The regions of Hong Kong and Taiwan have obtained its combined representative ONE Team, winner of the Valorant Challengers League (VCL) 2023 Hong Kong & Taiwan Split 2, for the upcoming VCT 2023 Ascension Pacific which is scheduled to take place from 28th June to 9th July.
ONE Team was a force to reckon with showcasing complete dominance in the regional circuit by going 7-0 during the regular season and 3-0 in the playoffs. While not losing a single match, it dropped just two maps in total across the entire tournament, one in each stage.
Even the best-of-five grand final series against Anti Eco Eco Club did not live up to the mark as ONE Team handed a 3-0 whitewash to walk away as the undisputed champion.
