TSM, the powerhouse American esports organization founded in 2009 by brothers Andy "Reginald" Dinh and Dan "Dan Dinh" Dinh via SoloMid.Net, has officially introduced its Valorant Academy team. With a storied history as one of the pioneering esports brands and collaborations with creators like Myth, TSM continues to dominate as one of the most followed organizations in competitive gaming.
Expectations are sky-high for this squad. Though ineligible for the current VCT cycle due to prior commitments, this roster is poised to shine in upcoming tournaments and solidify TSM's foothold in Valorant's exploding esports ecosystem.
Rumors had swirled in the Valorant community about TSM building an Academy team to nurture North American and global prospects. Four players hail from Noble Esports' former Valorant lineup, joined by newcomer Carlo "Dcop" Delsol, who steps in for Aleko "LeviathanAG" Gabuniya—now with TSM's main roster.
