FPX has changed their roster completely after its god-mode EMEA journey. Their new roster consists of 5 aspiring Chinese players, and here they are.
FPX is a widely known team in Valorant and has its name engraved in the competitive history book. They joined the Valorant world in 2020, by picking up an EMEA mix team. But since then, there have been a lot of ups and downs.

The current "Chinese" roster will very soon play the Champions 2023 China Qualifier, in which they are expected to redeem their name and take one of the three slots that will go to Los Angeles in August. Yuicaw has shown immense performances so far and is trying to prove himself as the star player of the team.
The China qualifier starts in just a couple of days, and FPX are expected to have a fight till the end for a ticket to VCT Champions 2023.
Was their switch to China worth it, or was leaving EMEA a mistake? China is officially a VCT member and will have their own game client. If you wish to learn more about that, check Valorant China: Release Date, Replay System, Exclusive Skins.
