The organization Apeks released a documentary film dedicated to its Valorant roster. In doing so, they summarized the results of the past season, where they fell just one victory short of securing a partnership with Riot Games.

Throughout 2023, the Apeks team displayed impressive gameplay, defeating nearly all of their opponents on the path to success. This is highlighted in the first half of their documentary, which narrates their undefeated journey to the top league - the VCT EMEA League. The second half is dedicated to the match that changed the players' fate and will forever remain in their memory.

This refers to the final match of the VCL Ascension: EMEA 2023 tournament against the team Gentle Mates, which determined the owner of the slot in the VCT EMEA League. Apeks made it to this final by defeating everyone in their path throughout the season and only suffered one defeat before the final match. The final ended in a 0:3 loss for them and became the most painful moment in their professional career, as the team was extremely close to securing a partnership with Riot Games.

After the season ended, two coaches officially left the team. Rumors suggest that some players received invitations from top league clubs, but at the time of the article's publication, there were no official confirmations of this.
