Reports suggest that Igor "Redgar" Vlasov may be on the verge of joining the Giants Valorant team, although no official confirmation has been made yet.

Unnamed sources with knowledge of the situation claim that Redgar has reached a verbal agreement with the Giants to potentially become their new VCT player. If this rumored move materializes, Redgar should assume the role of In-Game Leader (IGL) for the Giants, stepping in for Emir "rhyme" Muminovic, who recently announced his retirement from competitive play on September 6th, leaving Giants current roster with:

  • Fit1nho (Adolfo Gallego);
  • nukkye (Žygimantas Chmieliauskas);
  • hoody (Aaro Peltokangas);
  • Cloud (Kirill Nehozhin);

While the squad is already formidable, the rumored addition of Redgar could bring about a new dimension to their gameplay. As an In-Game Leader (IGL), Redgar's leadership skills and ability to make crucial in-game decisions may provide the team with the strategic edge they need to excel in the highly competitive Valorant scene.

Even though the news remains unconfirmed, it would signify a significant change for the Giants roster as they prepare for their upcoming Valorant Champions Tour (VCT) campaign. The potential addition of Redgar to their lineup is undoubtedly a strategic move to enhance the Spanish organization's performance, which had already been commendable, earning them a spot in the 2023 Valorant Champions. However, we are waiting to see an official announcement by the team or the player himself.

Stay tuned in Strafe for more roster changes and Valorant updates overall!
