Loser, Underdog, Champion.

No one thought KangKang could win a world championship.
Valorant's over-the-top, stylish sniper made waves in 2023 as the player to watch in the VCT. Things didn't work out that easily though. His team crumbled again and again, holding him back from greatness.
But if you know anything about KangKang then you’ll know that he’s not the type of player who backs down when things get tough.
And when all seemed lost, KangKang went straight to the top.

Ngl the song kangkang sang at the end was cold 🥶

This is Valorant’s anime protagonist.
From the very beginning, ever since he established his place in Valorant lore, his arc was indisputable. He brought China to world champs before Valorant was available to the country. At first, everyone thought he was just a flash in the pan but he just kept getting better and better and better. Up to this year, everyone thought the Chinese region wasn’t up to par with the rest of the world. That they still had at least 2 more years to content for a championship. He and EDG took matters into their own hands, got hot at the right time, and fast forwarded to their destiny. KangKang’s greatness was inevitable. But to do it ahead of everyone else’s schedule, he really solidified his legacy.

[@NoahBrwn]

Absolute Cinema from KangKang

[@somadeli8721]

I think the only performance in a bo5 that comes close to KangKang's in the Grand Final is ScreaM tearing M3C apart in the 2022 EMEA LCQ Grand Final. I dont know which one was a better individual performance, its really close

[@tehAmbi]

KangKang remind me of KennyS. He does stuff that mindblown you

[@Another_RandomHuman]

[@GeekOSTBrigade]

EDG won an International before PRX. The Org should just drop the roster and rebuilt PRX already. The members play without brain most of the time.

[@danchase5689]

Drop the roster? A win without the heart of prx wouldn't be a win anyways. Have you seen them? The ceo refers to davai as his bro and jingg as baby jingg. Prx is a family first. If they can't together, it isn't worth winning.

[@parththakre1520]

​@@danchase5689So absolutely on point

[@joonefps]

“The members play without a brain” yeah.. and they get to international events, all while having fun. What’s your excuse?

[@Ella-e9d6v]

Your channel is like a ray of light in the RUclips world. Keep inspiring us with your videos!⌚️🐽🦀

[@noahkramer942]
