Riot backtracks on VCT The Guard ruling, squad to remain together in hunt for new org

Riot Games has backtracked on its decision to disqualify former players of The Guard from their VALORANT Champions Tour slot, allowing the team to find a new home to represent for 2024. While the drama is far from over, the logical resolution means a positive step for the team and the scene as a whole.

Riot has ruled the players and coach, formerly of The Guard, are allowed to stick together and find a new organization to play under for 2024 when they join the Americas league in a Sept. 1 release from the official VALORANT Esports Twitter account. They have yet to join a new org together, but the team is actively on the hunt.
