COVID curse strikes again at VALORANT Champions, sending one DRX player to quarantine
After a straightforward start to VALORANT Champions 2023 with no major issues, the final VCT event of the year has fittingly had a positive COVID test one more time, right as the second day of playoffs was set to begin.
An official announcement from the VALORANT esports team today confirmed that a member of the DRX roster has produced a positive test for COVID after self-requesting the test. Since the player in question feels well enough to play, they will compete against Bilibili today on LAN from an isolated room in a quarantined area, away from his teammates. DRX came out on stage without Kim “MaKo” Myeong-kwan, indicating he was the player who tested positive.
