Just days after bidding farewell to Velocity Gaming, one of the esports veterans from the Indian competitive scene, Tejas "rite2ace" Sawant, has been signed by Revenant Esports in a bid to bolster its Valorant team ahead of the 2023 circuit.
The revered Sova main looks in solid shape as curtains draw to a close over the current season, having witnessed a fantastic year with Velocity Gaming and contributing to his former team winning multiple tournaments like VCC 2022: Stage 1, TEC Challenger Series 7, and Skyesports Pro Invitational - S2.
Additionally, rite2ace also got an opportunity to go up against against international players by qualifying for the VCT 2022: APAC Challengers Stage 1.
