Barely formed, the Vitality roster on VALORANT is already experiencing a first change. A few days ago, the French team announced a major cleanup in its line-up for the Stage 2 in VRL Revolution, the French league, after a first part of the season far from the expectations of the structure. Presented as the substitute player of the starting five, the Frenchman RushManga was eventually removed from the roster.
After serious investigation and consultation with Riot Games, we have decided to terminate the contract with RushManga.
To replace him as a substitute in our VALORANT team, we made the decision to turn to @yozeii_a young French talent.— TEAM V1TAL1TY (@TeamVitality) May 11, 2022
In place, the structure announces the arrival of a young French nugget, YoZeii, who will take 6th place in the official composition led by BONECOLD. The reason for this very rapid change in staff, this is the result of an investigation by Riot Games. Indeed, the player seems to have a twin brother who shares with him his VALORANT account and his social networks as well as his Youtube channel. Both have the same username. Team Vitality seems to have asked Riot to clear things up and the verdict is in quickly.
Regarding my brother, he was neither boosted nor usurped my identity: it was always said that we were two on YouTube, as on twitter and that we each had our Valorant account having nothing in common except that is the nickname. I stopped valorant a year ago, leaving my brother the possibility of being alone to play it and to offer streams in parallel with mine to offer more content. In short, my brother has reached top 100 on several acts in full soloq and he has been playing well since the start of the game.
The structure made this decision without giving official explanations, but it would seem that this twin story, which is also accused of harassment by several people, is not foreign to the case.
I admit not having been very “friendly” at that time, and that I had an easy, too easy insult. I want to apologize to those I may have hurt. In the end, my only mistake was to have been friends with the wrong people. I wanted to let the accusations flow. But now I have to put an end to it, first to finally have peace, but also to my brother, who got kicked off his team for things that don’t even concern him.
