While ShoukR has been released from the org few days ago.
Both Ange and Riku come from the background of CS:GO, having played in the ESA Premier and the Mountain Dew League.
Both of them didn’t achieve much success, Ange last played for Rugratz earlier in the year before he shifted to Valorant full time.
Ange started his Valorant career with Team Underrated and played with them for a while.
