It has been made public that Gen.G benching HUYNH from VALORANT team. Here is the announcement:
Gen.G benching HUYNH from VALORANT team – Why?
It’s no secret that Gen.G hasn’t had the best results in the recent VCT tournaments. In the Stage 2 Challengers 2 qualifier, the team only placed 5th-8th, and in the 1st Challengers 1, the team only got 9th-16th. They’ve got some decent placings at the Stage 1 Masters and Stage 1 Challengers 3, but now they’ve opted to bench HUYN to improve these results.
Here are the three most recent tournament placing for Gen.G:
- 5th-8th at VCT 2021: North America Stage 2 Challengers 2 – Qualifier – 18th April 2021
- 9th-16th at VCT 2021: North America Stage 2 Challengers 1 – Qualifier – 4th April 2021
- 3rd in VCT 2021: North America Stage 1 Masters – 20th March 2021 – $15,000
Who will replace him?
No rumours have indicated that a particular player is the direct replacement. However we can conclude that Gen.G will opt to go through a trial period for their next 5th man. They also have the option to try and bring on someone from CS:GO with experience to boost the team’s level. Someone like Tarik, which has recently left Evil Geniuses, would be a perfect option for Gen.G!
