One of the most successful South Korean esports organization MVP PK has just parted ways with their entire CS:GO roster, with the players deciding to turn their focus towards the new tactical shooter VALORANT, as their contract with the organization comes to an end, according to a report by Fomos.kr.


The South Korean organization has been one of the best Asian teams to compete in CS:GO since its inception back in June 2016, consisting of some of the best Korean players in the circuit.

With a lot of esports organization already assembling a team for VALORANT which is still in beta, former MVP PK coach Pyeon “Termi” Seon-ho says that “The team which has come together for playing VALORANT has perfectly adapted to the game and have not lost a single scrim (practice) yet.”

He further stated that “There were many similar aspects to the game when compared to CS:GO, so I expected us to adapt easily. We are practising by applying what we already know about the game and following a similar system with the experience that I have accumulated over the years.”

Since its inception MVP PK has been a force to reckon with, attaining victory at CS:GO Asia Summit, eXTREMESLAND ZOWIE Asia CS:GO 2018, and Cobx Masters Phase 2, while also qualifying for multiple international tournaments like IEM Chicago 2018, ESL Pro League Season 7, IEM Sydney 2018, ESL One: Cologne 2019, IEM Sydney 2019, and many more.

Earlier Team Absolute from Japan had also decided to suspend its CS:GO activities to pursue a future in VALORANT, and now with the top South Korea CS:GO roster also moving on to the new title, the CS:GO circuit within Asia seems to be in a bit of trouble.
