ORDER sign mix from Team Launch, Ground Zero

ORDER are one of the bigger esports organizations in Australia, with big-name teams in League of Legends and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. In VALORANT, they’ve already hosted the first Ignition Series event in Oceania, the ORDER Oceanic Open. Today, ORDER have announced their entry into VALORANT, featuring big-name players from Team Launch and Ground Zero.

The players ORDER have signed are Kale "autumn" Dunne, Cameron "disk0" Mac, Tyler "tucks" Reilly, Oliver "DickStacy" Tierney, and Matthew "Texta" O'Rourke. Most players have their background in CS:GO. tucks was a longtime player for Chiefs Esports Club, dating all the way back to 2015, but a VAC ban sent him into coaching earlier this year with ORDER’s own team. He has repeatedly won Australian championships run by organizers like ESEA. Texta was one of the youngest players to compete in a top-level CS:GO scene when he joined Dark Sided at 15 years old, and went on to play for first Athletico and then Chiefs.

DickStacy is one of Australia’s better-known players, with a career dating back to 2016. He played for Dark Sided and Athletico up until late 2017, when he joined Greyhound Gaming, who he’d play with for the rest of his career. He’s repeatedly played on the international stage, with a 7th-8th place finish at Intel Extreme Masters Sydney 2019. Finally, disk0 is a former player for Avant Gaming, then known as Avant Garde, deeper into the Australian scene. Little is known about autumn’s background.

In VALORANT, each has continued on the success they previously had. autumn and disk0 join ORDER from Ground Zero, where they placed third at Rise of Valour - Finals. tucks, DickStacy, and Texta all come from Team Launch, who won the Order Oceanic Open and placed second, just ahead of Ground Zero, at Rise of Valour. disk0 will serve at the team’s support, while autumn and tucks have both been playing high-powered fraggers like Jett, Raze, and Reyna, DickStacy has played Sova and Breach, and Texta has played Phoenix. autumn boasts the best stats of the team, with 255 ACS and 1.36 KD.

ORDER have grabbed one of the best rosters they could possibly find. Anything other than victory at Oceanic First Strike will be a disappointment, and they should probably be considered the favourites until proven otherwise.
