Acend's Legacy in Valorant
Despite their exit, Acend will forever be remembered by fans and the Valorant community for their achievements. One of their greatest accomplishments is their victory at Valorant Champions 2021, a title that only four teams have claimed so far. Throughout their time in Valorant, Acend earned over $500,000 in prize money. However, every story eventually comes to an end.

Acend's Final Season
The 2024 season marked the last chapter for Acend in Valorant. Unfortunately, the team failed to qualify for the season's premier event, EMEA Ascension, which would have given them a chance to join the VCT EMEA league. Despite their best efforts, the results fell short of expectations. Additionally, the organization's decision to leave the game was influenced by dissatisfaction with the upcoming changes to the Tier-2 scene for the following year.
