T1 Valorant signs curry
The writing was on the wall with this pick-up after curry, 18, slotted into the team for Round of 128 and the Round of 64 in the preliminary stages of VCT Challengers 2.
T1 made the signing official on February 24, announcing that curry would step into the starting lineup after the org moved past Keven ‘AZK’ Larivière and Braxton ‘brax’ Pierce earlier in the month.
Since then, T1 signed Timothy ‘autimatic’ Ta as they looked to strengthen the core roster that includes Ha ‘Spyder’ Jung-woo, Sam ‘DaZeD’ Marine, and Tyler ‘Skadoodle’ Latham.
