The final frontier for ACEND. The Valorant Champions 2021.

ACEND started off Groups with a 2-1. But, the next three matches were insane. The best of the underdogs is unstoppable.

And now, even Gambit, the EMEA kings, is defeated. Also, the matches were close and personal between both teams.

Tooth and nail for every round. Though, NAts was off the rails in the Grand Finals starting from minute 1.

NAts is one of the best Carries in the Valorant pro circuit. ACS of 245 though, was not a saving grace enough for Gambit.

The Final Tribulation: Gambit Esports.

Gambit had a chance in Map 4, to close the match up. ACEND forced the veterans into overtime and saved themselves from a 3-1 loss.

After round 4, the score was tied 2-2 with momentum on ACEND’s side. CNed and D3ffo duked it out pretty hard.

But, eventually, when the dust settled, ACEND beat Gambit 13-8 in Map 5. ACEND are your Valorant Champions 2021.

2021 is truly the year of the underdogs. As a result, we expect significant changes in Esports lineups of most major teams in the coming weeks.

Championship runs like this are rare, oftentimes neigh impossible. But, a general trend arises and it is visible.

Valorant is a team game. Hence, we cannot bank on a single player. Times do change a lot quite quickly.
