Oxygen Forms NA VALORANT Challengers Team for 2023, Recruiting Talent from C9, T1, and More

Oxygen Esports Returns to NA VALORANT Challengers League with New Roster

Oxygen Esports is making its return to the NA VALORANT Challengers League in 2023, bringing a dangerous roster that is eyeing Ascension. This marks the first time since late 2020 that Oxygen Esports will compete fully in the NA VALORANT scene.

New Roster Announcement

Oxygen Esports announced their full roster today, which includes Mitch Semago, Josh “pwny” VanGorder, Devon “randyySavage” Bréard, Andrew “Verno” Maust, and Logan “skuba” Jenkins as the starting five. Yassin “Reduxx” Aboulalazm joins as a substitute, and Preston “Juv3nile” Dornon takes on the head coaching role.

Talent from Various NA Teams

The Oxygen roster features talent from various NA teams, including T1, Renegades, and Knights. However, the biggest addition is Mitch, formerly of Cloud9, who brings significant VCT experience and has appeared at international events in the past two years.

Full Commitment to NA VALORANT

Oxygen Esports is now fully committed to NA VALORANT after competing in the Turkish scene with both their main roster and Game Changers roster in 2021 and early 2022. The Game Changers roster achieved success in the EMEA Game Changers series, while the main roster was one of the top Turkish teams in 2021.

New England’s Premier Esports Organization

As “New England’s premier esports organization,” Oxygen’s shift to focus on NA VALORANT aligns with their brand. They also own and operate teams in the Overwatch League (Boston Uprising) and the Call of Duty League (Boston Breach).

The new Oxygen roster will kick off their journey in the 2023 NA VALORANT Challengers League in January.
