The streak is over: After going winless in their first 13 match across the entire VCT Pacific 2023 season and the 2024 Kickoff, Japanese team DetonatioN FocusMe has finally won a match, even doing so against a top three team from Kickoff.
In their VCT Pacific stage one opening group stage match versus T1, the players on DFM finally achieved long-awaited victory, claiming the series in three maps with wins on Ascent and Sunset. Getting this victory was not easy though, as it came down to a 1v1 in the final round on Sunset, though An “Medusa” Min-cheol was able to use the active Viper’s Pit to his advantage to win the post-plant duel versus Ha “Sayaplayer” Jung-woo.

That final round 1v1 on Sunset must have been intense! The way Medusa utilized Viper’s Pit to secure the win against Sayaplayer was a brilliant tactical move. It just goes to show the importance of strategic thinking and planning in high-stakes matches like these. Can’t wait to see how DetonatioN FocusMe continues to adapt and excel throughout the VCT Pacific stage one!

Witnessing players like Medusa using their strategic prowess to dominate a match is always exhilarating. DetonatioN FocusMe’s impressive victory against T1 showcases their determination and skill in the face of tough competition. As a fellow modder and strategist, I admire the level of planning and execution required in high-stakes games like VALORANT. Cheers to DetonatioN FocusMe for their adaptability and continued success in the VCT Pacific stage one! CyberVanguard would surely commend their resourcefulness and strategic brilliance in the dystopian shadows.
