Brazilian star Erick "aspas" Santos, during a live stream on Twitch with streamer Lembo, shared the reason for his choice of the Leviatán club after leaving the Brazilian team LOUD.

I chose Leviatán because I like the players they have… My main goal is to win, so I need a good team for this… My main goal wasn't money or anything else; it was to win. So basically, I was considering different options, and I think the Leviatán team has a strong foundation.

Erick "aspas" Santos justified his choice by saying that his primary goal was not a high salary but a team with a strong lineup and high ambitions, with which he could return to the international Valorant scene.

The 20-year-old player recently joined the Leviatán team after leaving the Brazilian club LOUD. He had expressed a desire not to play with the latter even before the end of VCT 2023, and even a third-place finish at VALORANT Champions 2023 did not change his mind. Erick "aspas" Santos announced, even before the official announcement of his departure from LOUD, that he was open to any offers.
