Wang “Jinggg” Jing Jie, one of the best VALORANT players in the world over the past two seasons, is returning from mandatory military service to pro play quicker than anyone expected. The Paper Rex star is being instantly inserted into the starting lineup.
Paper Rex announced today that Jinggg will be returning as soon as split one of the current VCT Pacific season, which begins in just over a week. With his return, Paper Rex is restoring the original starting roster that won VCT Pacific and reached the Champions grand final last year, meaning new addition Cahya “Monyet” Nugraha will be moved to the reserve role for the time being. Jinggg has also signed a new contract extension that will keep him on Paper Rex until the end of 2026.
