Current lineup of The Guard:
The Guard showcased impressive gameplay in the last season, reaching the main event of the year at the tier-2 stage VCL Ascension: Americas 2023 and clinching the title. For this, they secured a two-year slot in the VCT Americas League. However, due to the negligence of the management, the organization did not meet the necessary requirements for participation, and as a result, the team lost its spot.
