The leader of the FUT Esports Valorant team gave a brief comment after an unexpected turn of events in the semifinals of the VALORANT Champions Tour 2024: EMEA Kickoff.

FUT Esports failed to advance from Group A, finishing in third place in the group and exiting the tournament. However, the two teams that advanced from this group unexpectedly reached the tournament final and secured their spots at the VCT 2024: Madrid Masters.

I guess the death group was our group and we didn't know about it.

It's worth noting that due to their poor performance at the first tournament of the new season, the Turkish team will miss the first international LAN, meaning their next official matches won't take place for a while. This gives the team an opportunity to rectify mistakes and achieve results no worse than last season.
