They announced that from July 25, 2023, the organization granted them free agent status and allowed them to start looking for new clubs.

Team History

All team members joined M80 in December 2022. At the start of the new season, the team took part in VALORANT Challengers 2023: North America Split 1, where they took 1st place, and in the following stage, Split 2, which the team finished in 3rd place. The team's main goal was to win the Valorant Challengers Ascension 2023: Americas, which would have allowed M80 to proceed to the next two stages of the seasonal competitions Americas League 2024/2025. The team could not win the VCA 2023 Americas, losing in the finals to The Guard with a score of 1-3.

The organization is likely disbanding the Valorant team because the main focus will be on the roster for the upcoming CS 2. Recently, M80 announced that they are returning to the Valve discipline with renewed strength and presented the future roster for CS 2.
