Yesterday, during the VALORANT Champions 2024 match where Fnatic defeated G2 Esports, one of the key talking points was player Chronicle, whose luck played a crucial role in his team's victory.

In the deciding round, Chronicle made three kills while nearly blinded, which became the turning point of the match. One of the commentators, witnessing this feat, exclaimed, "That's a birthday gift!" as it was Chronicle's 22nd birthday.

Moreover, Chronicle used the "Black.Market" knife from Valorant during this match, which drew attention for its rare feature of changing color from gray to red or bright blue. This Easter egg has a low chance of appearing, roughly once every 300-400 rounds. Chronicle managed to unlock the rare color of the knife at the critical moment, which undoubtedly added to his luck and helped his team.
