For the esports organization, it’s the pinnacle of a prime since it entered the Valorant Arena in early February. At the time, a day before the North American Challenger launched, Optic stuck with the roster that Team Envy had started up until that point. And the deal was not a sudden coup, but rather a partnership between the two organizations, which was decided at the end of 2021.

In terms of sports, the title is less surprising. The team was already active at the international level. Starting with Team Envy, the Pros finished second at Masters Berlin in September. This defeat, according to Victor, motivated the team: “At the Masters Berlin we were on the losing side. We know how you feel. That brings us here.”
