G2 has unveiled its latest addition to the powerhouse roster set to dominate the 2024 Valorant Champions Tour (VCT) Americas season. After an exhaustive search, G2 has secured the services of none other than the elite duelist, Nathan "leaf" Orf, formerly the dazzling superstar of Cloud9.

Leaf's arrival at G2 marks a turning point in the team's journey towards dominance. The organization recently secured the signatures of ex-The Guard players, solidifying their presence as a formidable force in the upcoming VCT season. The acquisition of leaf, who is set to take on the pivotal duelist entry role, further enhances the squad's already impressive capabilities, following their victorious conquest in the Ascension tournament.

G2's ascent in the competitive Valorant scene has been nothing short of spectacular. With Riot's blessing to court players previously tied to other organizations, the team seized the opportunity and outshone a whopping "roughly 17" competing organizations. The victory speaks volumes about G2's commitment to excellence in the Valorant realm.

During a conversation with Dot Esports, G2's CEO, Alban Dechelotte, disclosed that the team was meticulously considering their fifth member during a "special offseason." In a talent pool teeming with gifted duelists from the VCT Americas, the likes of jawgemo, leaf, aspas, yay, and Demon1 were all names on the table. G2's decision to bring leaf on board sends a resounding message to their competitors: they're out to assemble the ultimate dream team.

Leaf's journey to G2 is the culmination of a three-year odyssey with Cloud9, which witnessed an array of roster changes, a standout appearance at Champions 2021, and a series of near-miss moments on the international stage. As Cloud9 welcomes back the in-game leader Anthony "vanity" Malaspina, it intriguingly mirrors G2's reliance on Francis "OXY" Hoang, a potential breakout star who previously wore the G2 jersey.

The anticipation for G2 and leaf's debut is palpable. The duo is all set to make their first appearance on Thursday, October 26, in a riveting showmatch against Sentinels, where Valorant enthusiasts will witness the clash of titans and the unveiling of G2's audacious strategy to conquer the VCT 2024 season.
