Rumors: G2 Esports has decided on the roster to participate in the Challengers series

According to authoritative insider George Geddes, the European esports organization G2 Esports has decided on the roster for participation in the Challengers series in the VALORANT discipline. The new team will reportedly be centered around ShahZaM and dapr, former Sentinels players.

ShahZaM and dapr should become the main characters of the new G2 Esports roster. Both players spent two and a half seasons with the Sentinels, together with which they became the winners of the PAX Arena Invitational, JBL Quantum Cup, VCT 2021: North America Stage 1 Masters, VCT 2021: North America Stage 2 Challengers Finals, VCT 2021: Stage 2 Masters - Reykjavík and VCT 2021: North America Stage 3 Challengers Playoffs.

Together with them, wippie and penny, former Version1 players, will join the team. In a season and a half, they managed to win the Nerd Street Gamers: Winter Championship - Open 4, as well as reach the VCT 2021: North America Stage 2 Challengers Finals.

The last addition to the line-up should be OXY, which was previously seen in Dark Ratio. Here, the young American scored victories at Knights Arena Monthly Gauntlet 2022: July and Proving Grounds 2022: Unleashed, and also reached the final at Knights Arena Monthly Gauntlet 2022: September and BoomTV VALORANT Select.

As previously reported, the team will be coached by Immi, a former coach of Version1. The sixth player should be signed by curry, who was never able to convince Cloud9 management to keep himself on the team.

Recall that G2 Esports failed to get into the number of partners, despite applying to two leagues at once - America and Europe. While the scandal surrounding the club's former CEO Carlos Rodriguez was cited as the main reason, the organization intended to sign the XSET squad, but the transfer ultimately fell through.

Now G2 Esports will try their hand at the American Challengers League, where they will probably receive a direct invite.

Possible G2 Esports VALORANT roster for the Challengers series:

• ShahZaM
• dapr
• wippie
• penny
• OXY
• Immi (head coach)
• curry (bench)
