Global Esports Plays Last Match With Current Valorant Roster
The most dominant Valorant team from South Asia reaches the end of the road.
After competing for more than two years together under the banner of Global Esports, the current lineup has reached the end of its journey, playing its final match earlier today on 25th November at the Skyesports SEA Championship.
Global Esports had already announced its roster for the VCT 2023: Pacific League (Valorant Champions Tour) last month, retaining only two players from its current all-Indian roster, Ganesh "SkRossi" Gangadhar and Abhirup "Lightningfast" Choudhury.
Global Esports might not be walking into the sunset with a trophy, but this iteration of its Valorant roster definitely found a lot of success and was one of the strongest teams from the South Asia region.
Global Esports plays its last match with the current Valorant lineup
Following its loss to MiTH (Made in Thailand) at the Skyesports SEA Championship, captain of the Global Esports lineup - Bhavin "HellrangeR" Kotwani, in an emotional farewell statement said that "It was our last game together as a team, lots of ups and downs but was a good run while it lasted."
HellrangeR thanked everyone who had stuck with the team and supported them from the very first day, without shying away from the fact that they did play terribly against MiTH in what turned out to be their final match together as a team.
"We played terribly, not what we wanted but it is what it is," said HellrangeR, "We are out of the Skyesports SEA Championship. Thank you to everyone who has supported us till now."
Since coming together in October 2020, Global Esports was quick to earn a name for itself as one of the top teams in South Asia and went on to completely dominate the 2021 regional circuit, seldom losing a tournament they participated in.
Having earned one of the 30 available franchise slots by Riot Games for the VCT 2023: Pacific League, Global Esports decided to undergo a massive revamp in order to put its best foot forward. Being the only team from India to have received a slot, there is both a lot of support and pressure on the team to perform well next year.
The Global Esports lineup that has now played its final match together was as follows,
Ganesh "SkRossi" Gangadhar
Bhavin "HellrangeR" Kotwani
Akshay "KappA" Sinkar
