A huge blow for Global Esports
Valorant Champions Tour 2023: LOCK//IN São Paulo kicked off yesterday 13th of February. The opening two matches were played and paved the way for the other remaining matches in the Round of 32 stages. As you all came to know, the tournament holds all the partnered teams and among them, we have the Indian side Global Esports. The only Indian organisation that is a part of the Pacific league will be seen competing against other partnered teams. However, the fans were not aware that such news would come up. On February 14th, Michael Wronski aka WRONSKI tweeted that he will not be on the roster of Global Esports for the Valorant Champions Tour 2023: LOCK//IN. This means Global Esports has to compete without him.
Bad news to share. Unfortunately I won’t be able to be in Brazil for VCT LOCK//IN since I have to travel back to Australia due to some personal issues outside game. I’m looking forward to cheering on my team and sending them all my love and energy. Sorry everyone ❤️ #GEFIGHTING
