After finishing 5-8th in the OWL’s 2020 May Melee, ZachaREEE announced his decision to 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:retire from competitive Overwatch. In his retirement announcement, he revealed he would be pu💦rsuing a career in professional VALORANT. He now joins FaZe Clan’s growing VALORANT roster, to compete alongside fellow former Overwatch pro Corey “Core🦩y” Nigra. The team will be led by former Counter-Strike competitor Jason “JasonR” Ruchelski.

FaZe Clan recently competed in the T1 x Nerd Street Gamers Showdown, a VALORANT Ignition Series tournament, with ZachaREEE playing as a stand-in. The team, playing with Corey and three other temporary members, topped their group with 2-0 victo𝐆ries over Prospects and Together We Are Terrific. FaZe took wins over 100 Thieves and Sentinels in the play-offs, though a lower bracket loss to Immortals sent them home in fourth place. 

FaZe Clan is just one of many prominent esports organizations jumping into competitive VALORANT. The 5v5 tactical shooter has drawn the attention of many top-tier players from other competitive scenes, including the OWL's Jay "Sinatraa" Won and rising CS:GO star Matthew "Wardell" Yu.

FaZe Clan is still in need of two players to complete its VALORANT roster. It 🌟is currentl🥃y unknown when the team will compete next.
