In a potential fresh start for 2024, ZETA DIVISION, a well-known esports organization from Japan, appears to be making significant changes by reportedly putting their VALORANT<\/a> line up up for sale. <\/p>\n

This development comes on the heels of hints at roster adjustments made in August, as the team initiated applications and considered try outs for potential new additions.<\/p>\n

While this marks the end of an era for ZETA DIVISION, there remains a glimmer of hope for some players who may stage a comeback if certain deals do not materialize. <\/p>\n

ZETA DIVISION previously boasted a VALORANT roster that included notable talents such as Koji “Laz” Ushida, who served as the in-game leader, and Shota “SugarZ3ro” Watanabe, a rising star at just 20 years old.<\/p>\n

The past year has been a disappointing one for the team, as they faced eliminations in various VALORANT events. <\/p>\n

Despite their struggles throughout the season in the Pacific League, where they finished fourth, they managed to secure a spot at Champions through the Chance Qualifier. <\/p>\n

However, their performance at VALORANT Champions<\/a> fell short of expectations, with consecutive losses to FNATIC and NRG Esports.<\/p>\n

These underwhelming results seem to be driving the changes that could potentially reshape the future of ZETA DIVISION’s VALORANT roster.<\/p>\n

Reportedly, ZETA DIVISION, competing in the VCT Pacific side, is now open to offers for all of its VALORANT players as part of a roster reshuffling process for the upcoming 2024 season. <\/p>\n

According to reports from Blix.gg, the Japanese organization is actively exploring offers for its VALORANT players during the off-season.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, all six players on ZETA DIVISION, along with head coach Hibiki \u2018XQQ\u2019 Motoyama, have contracts in place until the end of 2026, as indicated by the VCT Global Contract Database.<\/p>\n

ZETA DIVISION’s disappointing season saw them miss VCT Masters: Tokyo<\/a>, a significant event for Japanese VALORANT, and finish at the bottom of their group at VALORANT Champions 2023 after defeats to Fnatic and NRG.<\/p>\n

In the pursuit of a more successful 2024, ZETA DIVISION has already initiated an application process for their VALORANT roster, with a clear aim of triumphing in the VALORANT Champions Tour<\/a> Pacific League and VALORANT Champions. <\/p>\n

They are actively seeking players with a Radiant rank who can communicate fluently in Japanese, emphasizing their commitment to revitalizing their team’s fortunes in the upcoming season.<\/p>\n
