Global Esports has had a shaky start to the year with the team failing to qualify for Valorant Masters Reykjavik at the APAC Challengers event. The team took a break before returning to competitive play, and it looks like it has paid off with the players putting in impressive performances recently.

Global Esports will next be seen competing in the Skyesports Champions Series 2022 which is the gateway to APAC Challengers 2 for the Valorant Champions Tour’s 2022 competitive circuit.
