The VCT 2023 offered an intense final on August 26th in front of a crowd at the Los Angeles stadium and thousands of people streaming the event on Twitch. In case you didn't know, the team of the new Valorant world champion also includes a Peruvian player and here we tell you who it is.
In an exciting match that ended with a 3-1 score in favor of Evil Geniuses, the audience was able to enjoy an entertaining encounter between the representatives of APAC and Americas. With an outstanding performance by Demon1 and a struggling Papex Rex, the Valorant competition season came to an end.
Who is the Peruvian player in Evil Geniuses?
The official Valorant team rosters consist of five players, but each team has substitutes in case a starting member gets injured or cannot compete. In the case of the current world champion team, they have a special member who, despite not playing any matches in the new Potter era, was present supporting all the players in each game.
His name is Kyle Jensen, better known on the server as 'ScrewFace'. Despite having American citizenship, his mother is Peruvian, and he has made it clear on several occasions during his Twitch streams that he is proud of his Peruvian roots. This is one of the main reasons why he speaks Spanish.
On the day of the final (August 26th), Kyle Jensen was aware of the support through social media, and from Peru, they showed their support for the team, and he did not hesitate to thank them with the famous phrase: 'Viva Perú, caraj*!'
Potter Makes History in Valorant
The Evil Geniuses' coach marked a before and after in Valorant after becoming the first coach to lift the trophy. Remember that since she became the head coach of the team, she received multiple criticisms, but time proved her right and she finally managed to lead the team to the world championship.
