And recently, the group made an unexpected cameo at the VALORANT champions tour (VCT) LOCK//IN.
The VALORANT esports tournament was recently held in São Paulo, Brazil, where 32 professional teams competed against each other for three weeks.
One in-game leader, Fnatic‘s Boaster, whose team won the tournament, is especially known for his entertaining entrances.
I thought we were going to lose another final there😅 My teammates didn’t let that happen though. Loud are a great team!
So happy to finally lift a trophy and flex my big muscles!
