Global Esports Announce Benkai For The 2024 VCT Season

Previously, the community hinted at Global signing a player, whose name starts with "B". It was also reported that Blazek1ng will be replacing Monyet on the roster. There was much confusion surrounding the air as to whether it would be Benkai or Blazek1ng. With the announcement of Benkai making his move for the Indian organization, the community is looking forward to seeing the "cosplay king" once again in the VCT circuit. This roster move also marks the end of a 3-year old relationship between Paper Rex and Tan. During his tenure with PRX, Benkai played more than 130 official series with the roster and was awarded the top APAC personality of 2022.

Global Esports CEO already hinted at Indian players in the roster. Other rumours claim the Indian representatives will be signing a North American import once again in the roster. While it is unclear right now as to who the import might be, fans are definitely excited for the new roster debut. During his live stream, GE's CEO, Mr Rushindra Sinha said that there will be two announcements for the day related to their Valorant roster. Now the community is eagerly waiting for the second announcement from the organization.
