FaZe parts ways with VALORANT roster, casting uncertainty over future amid acquisition reports
All five members of FaZe Clan's men's VALORANT roster were made available to the vast unrestricted free agency pool today, hinting at a future exit from the game.
The release of the roster means Andrej “babybay” Francisty, Kevin “poised” Ngo, Phat “supamen” Le, Anthony “mummAy” DiPaulo, and Tanner “TiGG” Spanu will all move on from FaZe. Two weeks from now would mark three years since babybay joined FaZe as a part of the original roster, which included Masters Reykjavik champion Marved.

FaZe is certainly not the first organization competing in NA VALORANT to move on from its roster after the 2023 Challengers season, following in the footsteps of TSM, G2, Disguised, and MAD Lions. Notably, though, FaZe appears to be on the way out of VALORANT as a whole as its announcement thanked “all the players and staff who have represented FaZe Clan during time in the scene.”
Unlike TSM, who noted its plans to re-enter VALORANT closer to the start of next season after releasing its 2023 roster, FaZe made no mention of returning for the 2024 season. Currently, FaZe still competes with a Game Changers roster comprising of former CLG Red and Complexity talent, who all just qualified for the main event of NA Game Changers series two.
But there are serious concerns regarding FaZe’s long-term future after reports about a potential acquisition came out earlier today. The Sports Business Journal’s Kevin Hitt reported that FaZe is considering two separate acquisition offers from esports/gaming companies GameSquare (owner of Complexity) and Enthusiast Gaming (owner of Luminosity, as well as Seattle Surge and Vancouver Titans).
Alongside its women’s VALORANT team, FaZe still competes across a number of different esports, including CS:GO, Call of Duty, Apex Legends, Halo Infinite, Rainbow Six Siege, and Rocket League. FaZe also partners with Atlanta Esports Ventures, which owns the Atlanta FaZe franchise in the CDL.

A Novices Tips To Rainbow Six Siege Game
Rainbow Six Siege, a tactical shooter with high precision, values the importance of planning carefully and playing tactically. The game's release in 2015 has seen a radical expansion, including new maps weapons, operators, and seasonal events being added to it. The game has even undergone major technical overhauls, allowing the creation of more varied character designs.
It's true that Siege isn't an easy game to master. However, for those who are new to the game it's not much more difficult than other games. You'll know the basics if you have played FPSs over the past decade. Beyond this, you'll learn by playing. To get an idea of your style, try out Operators, gun loadouts and other gadgets. Take a look at the Newcomer playlist, compete against other players on the level you prefer, and see how quickly you can outgrow it. If you're looking to learn more about Beastcoast vs. TSM Upset in Rainbow Six You must checkout bettergamer.com website.
The basics covered
Modes
The game is divided into two main pillars: PvE and PvP. Whichever you choose to begin with, there will be some basics that you need to learn.
There are two modes of PvE "Situations", where you can improve your skills by practicing live-fire drills, and "Terrorist Hunt", where you work together with your friends to deal with high threat situations and neutralise AI targets.
PvP is based on strategic 5-v-5 team play. It can be played in a variety of scenarios, wherein Red and Blue Team go up against each other in order to disarm bombs, rescue hostages or secure key areas.
Attack and defense
All players are classified into two groups that are Defenders and Attackers - each has a job to perform and you'll need to be aware of both.
Attackers, as the name implies are the forces of the siege that are charged with breaking, clearing, and securing the objective. The equipment they use is designed to accomplish this, including a ready supply of ballistics, equipment for reconnaissance, and crowd control weaponry.
youtube
Defenders must stifle the target, reinforcing the building's entrances and securing key areas throughout the map. Their gadgets include medic abilities and armor to protect allies, in addition to intel gathering and denial devices to prevent enemy reconnaissance.
Which operator should I select?
That depends on how you play. What do you prefer an armored juggernaut or an expert tactician? Do you prefer to defend or attack? Begin with these questions and then work your way from there.
All Operators possess a balance of agility and strength. The greater the amount of one, the more effective. And every device is unique to the Operator: remote drones for scouting, aids to revive your fellow soldiers, or a hulking tool to cook in doors.
You can play around with devices and modify weapons to see what works best for you. The roster of Operators is expanding rapidly, so no matter your preference, there will be an Operator who will suit you.
Mastering your surroundings
Rainbow Six Siege offers a vast array of maps. There are no two maps identical. They vary in scale, design and location as well as the time of the day. From beautiful suburban homes to besieged consulates, every location offers a different challenge.
Making an entrance
In addition to their complex design the game's tactics are complicated further by the game's destructible environments. The entire floor and walls can be torn out by ballistics, smashed through by sledgehammers, or pounded with peepholes by fire. There's no way to find a secure area and there's no chance that you will ever look at the same map twice.
Digging in
The shutters that are blast-proof can be used to reinforce doors, windows and hatches by defenders. If you're on the attacking team, don't be astonished when you discover your preferred breaching point is blocked by a bulletproof wall.
From above or from below
Most places have several points of entry and egress, which permits attackers to get in through basements and openings, or escape from rooftops before entering windows or skylights. Surprise is a key weapon and you should be aware of floors and ceilings.

Reginald Defends TSM’s Commitment to Esports After ‘Freeze’ Report, Says 2023 Counter-Strike Plans Are Still in Effect
According to a Sports Business Journal article from March 30 that claims the company is preparing to put all of its competitive gaming initiatives on hold, the future of TSM's esports section is in peril. TSM's founder affirms that the company is still following through with its intention to reenter an illustrious esport, even though this may spell the end for its existing initiatives, including its flagship LCS programme.
In response to the SBJ report, TSM founder and CEO Andy “Reginald” Dinh reaffirmed the organization’s commitment to esports and confirmed that the organization is still planning to enter CS:GO this year, with “a larger investment than all of the games we’ve left combined.”
Back in October 2022, then president of esports Dominic Kallas announced that “TSM will be returning to CS:GO” in 2023, and included that the organization felt it could be successful with a European roster.
However, a lot has changed from that announcement leading up to yesterday’s report from the SBJ. Less than two months after that announcement, TSM’s 10-year, $210 million naming rights deal with cryptocurrency exchange FTX fell through when the cryptocurrency exchange filed for bankruptcy. While many esports organizations have faced financial adversity in the current economic climate, SBJ reporter Kevin Hitt noted in his report that “TSM took a big financial hit” when that deal ended prematurely.
Additionally, Dominic Kallas and the organization parted ways at the beginning of March, TSM’s COO Walter Wang also left the organization during March, and the organization parted ways with its Rainbow Six: Siege division this past February, just one year after lifting the world championship trophy at the Six Invitational.
While Reginald maintains that TSM is committed to returning to Counter-Strike, he doesn’t specifically deny that the organization could leave other esports in the near future, saying TSM “will continue to enter & exit games.”
Update April 1 2:50pm CT: The article’s title and content has been amended to reflect Reginald’s statement following the SBJ report.

Season 10 of the Rainbow Six Pro League
With Ubisoft discharging that picture above, perhaps in some way or another they need the administrators to be spilled. It surely keeps individuals discussing it. Maybe there will come a season where the administrators are not spilled. Ubisoft needs to fabricate Siege's list to 100 administrators before they quit supporting it. They are about 33% of the route to their objective, so perhaps one of the rest of the 70 won't be spilled.
Since he could just control one character at any given moment, he found that the best method to approach assaulting was to regard every individual administrator as a respawn. Should you loved this informative article and you would want to receive details relating to R6 Credits assure visit the web page. Utilizing his first administrator, he'd quite recently hurry into the guide and typically get murdered, however in the process would uncover significant data about the foe group that he could use with consequent endeavors. While it took some time for him to make sense of a beat, he in the long run began winning the periodic round in easygoing and climbed to positioned. Obviously, this was essentially progressively troublesome. Be that as it may, with a great deal of training, he was in the long run ready to make it to cycle nine.
With Season 10 of the Rainbow Six Pro League for North America beginning June 17, another association has shown up. Group SoloMid has declared that they have gained the past Excelerate Gaming Rainbow Six list. The group comprises of Matthew 'Accomplished' Solomon, Khalil 'b1ologic' Pleas, Jason 'Beaulo' Doty, Tommy 'Krusher' Samuel, Bryan 'Merc' Wrzek, and their mentor Owen 'Pojoman' Mitura. This new TSM program recently equipped for the R6 Pro League in Season 8's Challenger League.
We've been exceptionally inspired by the advancement of the R6S Pro League," said Steve Maida, President of Luminosity Gaming. "With the viewership, yet with the methodology Ubisoft has taken to making a solid and stable esport. The biological system is one that supports solid development for players and associations alike. We couldn't have requested a superior group with which to enter the scene. 92 Dream Team are an astonishing gathering of young fellows who have had the option to make progress while already adjusting day occupations and an absence of assets. We're eager to watch them take off under the Luminosity pennant.

Skem and Kuku reportedly banned from attending Chongqing Major
Andrei "Skemberlu" Ong, compLexity Gaming's former midlaner, and Carlo "Kuku" Palad, TNC Predator's current offlaner, have allegedly been banned from attending January's Chongqing Major.
It's not a rumor. Skemberlu and Kuku are both banned from attending the Chongqing Major. Col and TNC were both contacted prior to the event and were asked if they wanted to kick the players.
There is still a chance that this ban can be extended and block them from attending TI9.
— Matthew Bailey (@Cyborgmatt) November 24, 2018
The allegation was reported by several sources throughout Saturday and Sunday, including Matthew "Cyborgmatt" Bailey, popular community member and manager of Team Secret.
The ban was allegedly issued in response to the fact that these two players made racially insensitive comments against Chinese players in the context of a professional and public match, respectively.
According to Jack "KBBQ" Chen, a popular figure in both Dota 2's Chinese and North American communities, the ban was not issued by the Major's tournament organizers but rather the municipal government.
it's not a rumor, the municipal government met to discuss after outrage and anger grew over what people in China felt was an inadequate or delayed response and reportedly came to the organizer saying: "this event cannot have these two players"
— Jack Chen (@KBBQDotA) November 24, 2018
The ban has sparked discussion — and, in some cases, outcry — across the Dota community, with many calling for intervention on Valve's part.
Individual tournament organizers cannot be allowed to ban players from DPC events. If there is another Major in the Philippines, do they get to ban Chinese players in retaliation? Valve absolutely must step in.
— Nahaz (@NahazDota) November 24, 2018
Whether or not they should be banned is kind of a public matter, and a valve one to be more specific. There is a smart way to solve things and I'm sure it will end up happening. Nevertheless feeding the anger and drama is the wrost thing we can do. So please act responsible
— 7ckngMad (@7ckngMadDOTA) November 24, 2018
no way they are banned from ti right? Just cos it's in China too

The move is presumably the last among SKT's recent efforts to rebuild themselves into something of a 'superteam' following their disappointing performance throughout the 2018 season. In addition, the legendary South Korean organization announced the acquisition of Kim "Fly" Sangcheol as their new coach.
Crown joins OpTic as PowerOfEvil leaves for CLG
Former League of Legends World Champion Lee "Crown" Min-ho has signed with OpTic Gaming, the organization announced on Monday.

These acquisitions arrive in the wake of TSM's lackluster showing throughout the 2018 season, one in which the perennial North American franchise failed to qualify for the World Championship for the first time in their history.

Another Historic Org Leaves Rainbow Six Scene Following Six Invitational
With the 2023 Six Invitational championship, Rainbow Six Siege's professional season came to an end. Since then, troubling news has been mounting in the esports community.
A week after the historic organization TSM departed from the FPS game’s competitive scene, another followed today.
Despite an outstanding performance at the Six Invitational last week, Astralis has disbanded its team and left the scene. The team finished in fourth place in the tournament, making them one of the best teams in the world.
The organization mentioned new esports rules as the main cause of this drastic decision. “The conditions for running a healthy team organization in Rainbow 6 have deteriorated significantly,” Astralis wrote in a press release. “The development and lack of prospects in the league regrettably make it impossible for us to continue,” CEO Anders Hørsholt added.
The full roster is looking for another org to represent them in Rainbow Six, team member Forrest said on social media.
https://twitter.com/AstralisR6/status/1628296932476047360
Astralis initially joined the scene in 2021 when it signed Disrupt Gaming’s roster. While they failed to qualify for the Six Invitational in the first year, their performance skyrocketed in 2022.
They won the first and second stages of the NAL Championships, as well as the grand finals in the fall. Their second season culminated with the Six Invitational, where they lost to G2 Esports, the eventual World champions, in the lower bracket’s semifinals.
Related: Rainbow Six Siege Operation Commanding Force adds operator adjustments, Bravo Pack Ticket, and more
This is another blow to Rainbow Six esports. The news is especially worrying since Astralis was the best team in North America and one of the best in the world.
Many organizations have progressively departed the scene, leading to both fans and experts expressing concern about the game’s future. This year’s Six Invitational brought in respectable audience numbers, according to Esports Charts, but it was nowhere near some previous iterations of the tournament.
Meanwhile, Ubisoft is still pushing for updates to attract new players and keep Rainbow Six Scene fresh. Beginner and Speciality Challenges are set to be added soon to help players learn the ropes.

TSM’s $210 million sponsor FTX gets acquired amid fears of crypto crunch
The future of one of the most valuable branding agreements in esports history is in doubt as the cryptocurrency exchange FTX, one of the biggest sponsors in esports, is scheduled to be bought by its greatest rival, Binance. FTX holds name arrangements with both TSM and the LCS.
Binance, one of the largest crypto exchanges in the world, said today it will officially acquire FTX for an undisclosed sum, with rumors and fears swirling that the crypto market is headed for another crash. As first reported by the New York Times, Binance founder Changpeng Zhao said that “FTX asked for our help” and that his company will “fully acquire FTX.com and help cover the liquidity crunch.” FTX has been “scrambling to meet a surge of withdrawal requests over the last few days,” according to the NYT report.
Back in June 2021, an on-the-rise FTX landed a monumental deal with well-established esports organization TSM via a lucrative 10-year, $210 million naming rights deal that would see the organization go by the name “TSM FTX” across League of Legends, VALORANT, Apex Legends, and other titles the org competes in.
But hours after that deal was announced, TSM was informed by Riot Games that it would not be allowed to use its new crypto exchange sponsor during official broadcasts in League or VALORANT because it was in violation of Riot’s guidelines about partnerships with cryptocurrency exchanges. Salt was further rubbed in TSM’s wounds when two months later, the LCS itself landed a seven-year sponsorship deal with FTX.
TSM still retains the “TSM FTX” name on its socials, as well as on official Apex Legends broadcasts. The team even won the 2022 Rainbow Six Siege Invitational as “TSM FTX.” The purchasable TSM pro jersey features the FTX logo prominently, but the jersey worn on stage by its League roster did not feature said logo.
TSM has not yet responded to a request for comment from Dot Esports.
