Cloud9 reportedly replaced G2 Esports in VCT Americas league after Carlos controversy
As a result of a controversy surrounding former G2 Esports CEO Carlos Rodriguez and his support of Andrew Tate, Cloud9 replaced G2 in the VALORANT Americas league, according to a Dexerto report.
If true, Riot had apparently planned to exclude one of the most popular organizations in the world and one that has been closely tied to Riot’s biggest game, League of Legends. There have been multiple rumors about which team replaced G2, although none of these rumors have been confirmed by Riot.
