VALORANT Report: Rix.GG to retain frei and Luzuh, pick up rCk, LATEKS, and otom

Rix.GG parted ways with their roster over a month ago, ending the ROYALS core they formed around. Now, ahead of Riot's newly announced VALORANT Champions Tour, they are reportedly building a new roster, by retaining Aaron "frei" Frei and Joseph "Luzuh" Loose, while picking up Tom "otom" Hart, Richard "rCk" Kanerva, and Oliwer "LATEKS" Fahlander.

Frei is most known for his time with Rix.GG, where he stood in with the roster for all of First Strike, mostly playing Breach but also showing his Raze on Split.

Luzuh also stood in for Rix.GG, being known for his proficient usage of Jett, and his deadliness with the Operator. The Brit also played with Prodigy and Inferno, where he was originally placed on Sage but after expressing his discomfort, he was moved to his staple Jett, where he has stayed, averaging a 1.11 KD and 219 ACS with the Agent (Courtesy of vlr.gg).

Spotted after successfully playing Jett on MJAOMODE, otom is also set to join the roster, averaging a 271 ACS over 355 rounds, although it is expected that he will be giving the agent up to Luzuh.

The ex-Overwatch professional, rCk is the next piece, playing with many rosters, including VISU and With the boiz. He is most known for his versatility, having played officials with five separate agents. Mostly seen on Sova, he has globally averaged 207 ACS and a 1.03 KD.

Expected to be coming in as the in-game leader, the final position would be filled by LATEKS. Most recognized for being the shot-caller with FABRIKEN and SKADE, the Swede has mostly stuck with Controllers, Omen and Brimstone, but has also shown that he is capable of playing Killjoy and Cypher.

(Many sources have indicated that this is the roster being brought forward by Rix.GG, but may not be 100% correct.)

TOURSTAT Invest's Summer Clash might be a Fraudulent event

 On Monday, the 24th of August, 2020, TOURSTAT Invest announced Summer Clash, a VALORANT Tournament with a “3000£” Prize Pool. Well, the obvious first problem is highlighted (the prize pool should read “£3000”). Even with this being such a small mistake, it was suspicious enough for me to start my investigation. https://twitter.com/hstourstat/status/1297834188335452160   "Saying goodbye to summer! Let's see off the summer with VALORANT tournament! Prize Pool: 3000£ 8 teams Date: 07.09 - 10.10" With the help of JuhobOb , we started quickly started questioning ourselves: who is helping produce the event, where the funds are coming from, and whether the business was set up.  As their Twitter suggested, the company is Scottish in nature, however, a quick company house search shows that the company in question does not exist. I interviewed the Tournament Admin and TOURSTAT's representative, Limpopo, asking him whether the company was registered. Not only was it confirmed t...

 Raise Your Edge Gaming have been scouting and looking to expand into VALORANT over the last few months, and are now finally getting their foot in the door with the signings of player, Jose Luis "koldamenta" Aranguren, and coach, Laurynas "Nbs" Kisielius.
