Immortals adds 16-year-old CS:GO player Asuna to their VALORANT roster
North American organization Immortals has completed its VALORANT roster by signing 16-year-old Peter “Asuna” Mazuryk, a former CS:GO player.
Asuna gained more experience this year by playing for Triumph, a professional North American organization, in March. The 16-year-old also participated in the North American closed qualifier for Flashpoint season one with his own PUG team, Asuna’s Anime Aimers, but did not make it into the main event.
The young talent played his last professional CS:GO match on March 18 and had an average rating of 1.05 in 2020, according to HLTV’s statistics. Asuna has been focusing on VALORANT since playing his last match for Triumph.
Asuna will complete Immortals’ VALORANT roster, which was formed in May. The rest of the lineup includes Yannick “Koler” Blanchette, Amgalan “Genghsta” Nemekhbayar, Joseph “Bjorlulu” Bjorklund, and jcStani.
In contrast to other major esports organizations like T1, 100 Thieves, and TSM, Immortals is not focusing on players with extensive competitive CS:GO backgrounds. T1 picked up players like brax and Skadoodle, TSM signed Matthew “WARDELL” Yu and Yassine “Subroza” Taoufik, and Hiko was most recently acquired by 100 Thieves.
However, Asuna was one of the top five competitors at the recent VALORANT Twitch Rivals event on June 6 and 7, finishing behind only three players, according to Valorantify’s statistics. He participated in the online tournament alongside his now official teammates.
