Team Heretics Reveals New VALORANT Roster for 2022 Season
Team Heretics has announced its revamped roster for the upcoming 2022 VALORANT season. The Spanish organization aims to make a comeback with a mix of former Counter-Strike and Overwatch players joining their 2021 lineup.
The new additions to the team include Jesper “tenzki” Plougmann Mikalski, Daniel Mertz, and Jose Antonio “Bromas” Ramos Gonzalez. They will be joining returning players Felix “al0rante” Brandi and captain Christian “lowel” Garcia Antoran, who was the organization’s first VALORANT player.
In 2020, Heretics dominated the EMEA scene, emerging victorious in 10 out of 11 tournaments they participated in. Their triumph at First Strike Europe established them as the top European team at the time.
In 2021, the team continued its success by qualifying for the VCT 2021: Stage One Masters event. They finished second in a close five-game series against Acend.
However, since then, Heretics has struggled to maintain the same level of performance seen in 2020 and early 2021, leading to a much-needed roster overhaul.
With the new season approaching, the once-dominant VALORANT team looks forward to 2022 with the goal of qualifying for their first VCT Champions tournament later in the year. Heretics will play their first match as a team in 2022 today at 11am CT against Raftel.
The VCT Stage One Challengers Circuit will commence on Feb. 11. Teams from different regions will compete in a series of qualifiers in hopes of earning a spot in the VCT Masters tournament, scheduled for April.
