It’s been a very challenging period over the last 15 or so months and I never expected it to end this way. To see a player as talented and hardworking as Leo put away the mouse due to an illness feels like a knife in the gut.
Leo was a player Mini and I always dreamed of signing and when we finally were able to get him - we felt like we could win anything (and we kind of did). As Mini always said - he was as close to a perfect player we had ever seen. Leo was a great teammate, leader, player and person and he will be sorely missed by both his teammates and the community as a whole. Life is cruel sometimes - and this is one of those times.
We’ll always have LOCK//IN and Tokyo 🖤🧡
Incredibly sad news.
There is a reason why people universally loved and respected Leo so much and I hope everyone continues to support him no matter what he decides to do next.
Shame on all the people that used his name for clickbait and made stupid little spreadsheets instead of actually caring about what he was going through.
We gonna miss you Leo, one of if not THE best to ever touch the game.
After 3 years of last minute clutches, two international trophies and being an undisputable fan favourite, we wish farewell to @leojannesson.
Whilst the last year hasn’t been what we or Leo had hoped for, we are incredibly proud that Leo’s career was with us and for all the achievements we had with him on our roster.
For now, Leo will be stepping away from VALORANT and we wish him all the very best in his future endeavours. We’ll always be cheering from the sidelines 🧡
