Paper Rex fortsetter å lide tap på grunn av koronaviruset

Another Paper Rex player and coach have contracted the coronavirus and will be forced to play the VALORANT Champions Tour 2022: Stage 2 Masters - Copenhagen playoffs from a separate room. As a result, the Asian team will play the upcoming semi-final with Fnatic with only two players on stage, while the majority of the roster will defend the interests of the tag remotely.

The health and safety of the players and staff at the Masters in Copenhagen is our highest priority. As a precautionary measure due to COVID-19, all participants should be tested regularly. During mandatory testing, members of the Paper Rex team and coaching staff received positive PCR test results.

Note that this is not the first time that Paper Rex has experienced a shortage of staff due to the coronavirus. A little earlier, f0rsakeN and d4v41 were removed from the team and moved to a separate room. In addition, two days ago, the team was left without their manager JdFaker, who also contracted the coronavirus.

Infection schedule in the Paper Rex camp:

• July 13: f0rsakeN
• July 14: d4v41
• July 15: JdFaker (manager)
• July 17: Jinggg, alecks (coach)

Despite the circumstances, Paper Rex got off to a good start in the VALORANT Champions Tour 2022: Stage 2 Masters - Copenhagen playoffs, where they got a confident 2:0 victory over Guild Esports. Today, July 17, the team will play with Fnatic, playing for a ticket to the final of the upper bracket.
