Lakia may join DAMWON Gaming

According to insider Bo Hoogland, Lakia may join DAMWON Gaming. The 21-year-old South Korean is currently training with a team looking to strengthen their roster ahead of the VALORANT Champions Tour 2022: East Asia Last Chance Qualifier.

According to sources, Lakia, a former Nuturn Gaming and Vision Strikers player, has recently been training with DAMWON Gaming. It was also mentioned that Ssun, a former Spear Gaming player, also tested for DAMWON Gaming.

Lakia made a name for himself last year with the Vision Strikers.
