The competitive season in the professional Valorant scene has just begun, but some teams' early results have been disappointing. One such team is the Thai organization Talon Esports, which, according to rumors, is planning to part ways with two main roster players - Joseph "ban" Oh and Peter "Governor" No.

First Appearance of the Rumors

As mentioned earlier, this information remains at the rumor level for now. However, the news was first reported by well-known journalist and insider Tanmay. In his official social media posts today, he stated that ban and Governor will be leaving Talon Esports. However, no further details were provided. It remains unclear when exactly the organization plans to part ways with the players or the reasons behind this decision, so for now, it remains just speculation.

Recent Performance of the Team

When it comes to possible reasons, the first that comes to mind is the team’s underwhelming performance. The ban-Governor duo joined Talon at the end of 2023, and since then, the team has failed to secure any significant victories. Their only podium finish came at the TEN VALORANT Asia Invitational 2024, where they placed second. However, since this was an offseason event, it isn’t considered particularly important. With the start of 2025, the team participated in the first qualifiers for VCT 2025: Pacific Kickoff, where they finished fourth, failing to qualify for the upcoming Masters Bangkok 2025.

As of now, there has been no official confirmation regarding these rumors. However, if they turn out to be true, it’s likely that more roster changes will follow. Stay tuned to our portal for the latest updates on all Valorant professional scene changes.
