The European esports organization ACEND has announced changes to the starting lineup for VALORANT, moving Kiles to inactive. Earlier it was reported that the club intends to sign DeepMans and Fizzy.

The latest championship for Kiles as part of Acend was VCT 2022: EMEA Stage 1 Challengers, as a result of which the team took 9-10th place, without getting into the playoffs.

Acend's current lineup is as follows:

• cNed.
