FPX announce VALORANT Champions roster

The Masters Copenhagen champions, FunPlus Phoenix, have announced their roster for VALORANT Champions. Emir "rhyme" Muminovic has been added to the roster as a substitute and Neil "neilzinho" Finlay will be joining the team as an analyst. The remaining pieces of the roster are still the same as expected.

FunPlus Phoenix had a very successful year, starting with the EMEA Stage 1 trophy. The CIS team failed to compete in the international arena due to visa issues but they held onto their dreams. Despite losing the second stage championship of EMEA, FunPlus Phoenix reached the Stage 2 Masters Copenhagen stage and lifted the trophy by taking down Paper Rex in the grand final after five competitive games. They are still one of the favorites for the biggest trophy of the year.

While the starting lineup has stayed the same, rhyme will be joining the organization as the sixth player to fill in if needed. The Bosnian player recently parted ways with Gen.G. He holds a 0.97 rating in the past three months and his most picked agent is Raze with 15 times. In addition, rhyme held a 1.09 rating in 231 maps throughout his career. FPX’s roster is now locked for the competition with one last addition to the coaching staff. neilzinho will take the analyst role throughout the tournament for them. He previously coached Dark RAtio and worked for G2 Esports last year.

FPX’s VALORANT Champions roster is:

Emir "rhyme" Muminovic (Sub) Erik "d00mbr0s" Sandgren (Coach) Neil "neilzinho" Finlay (Analyst)
