How Brazil's Greatest Team Fell Apart

They were five underdogs nobody outside Brazil believed in. Less than a year later, they were world champions — the first team from outside North America or Europe to ever win a Valorant LAN. This is the story of how LOUD rose to the top of the world, and how it all came apart. From grinding through open qualifiers with no big org behind them, to heartbreak in Reykjavík, to a rematch for the ages in the Champions 2022 grand final — LOUD's rise reads like a movie. But less than a month after lifting the trophy, the cracks already started. Two starters left for a rival org. Then, after one more title, the heart of the team left too. This video breaks down exactly how a dynasty came apart, piece by piece. Were you watching when LOUD won it all in 2022? Drop a comment about where you were.
