In a historic moment for the VALORANT scene, BBL Queens emerged victorious in the EMEA VALORANT Game Changers Series Three grand final against Acend Rising. This win not only secured them the EMEA Game Changers Champions title but also earned them a spot in the Game Changers World Championship LAN event in São Paulo, Brazil.
The grand final was a best-of-five match, with BBL Queens ultimately defeating Acend Rising 3-1. This victory solidifies their place in VALORANT history, as only Guild X had previously managed to dethrone the dominant G2 Gozen dynasty in the region.
What sets BBL Queens’ win apart is their impressive performance throughout the tournament. They never dropped into the lower bracket and only lost two maps in total. Each member of the team showcased exceptional skill, but Gülce “Wens” Eda Sürmeli stood out with a remarkable performance in the grand final’s last map.
Aside from their gameplay achievements, BBL Queens’ qualification for the Game Changers World Championship holds special significance. They are the first all-Turkish squad to make it to the global stage in Game Changers, proudly representing their country. This milestone allows them to showcase Turkish VALORANT to the world as EMEA’s second seed in the 2023 Game Changers World Championship, starting on November 28.
