The new South American faces

As we head into another year, a new region rises promisingly. Year after year, South America West has shown the world better and better performances, with Datos F/A winning one match against HMBLE, whilst Reconic Esports won against Chasmac EA and Team Flash, just falling short of Worlds - and now new teams are coming into the spotlight.

One of the most promising rosters are Blue Label, composed of local talents such as Portox - Monthly Final winner with LeaveNoWitness - Meliodas, Nico, and Exic, who competed at the LCQ with SKCalalas last year. This line-up managed to make the finals of the Monthly Finals towards the back-end of last year, and now they have strengthened themselves with the more experienced Exic and Portox, as they bid to make even more history.

Another promising team is 1c, made up of Prozy, Jeremy, Todd, and weepy. This roster, who competed as Shield Gang last year, has shown good results in training. Already with their own Monthly Final victory under their belts, they now have Prozy as the roster's most successful and experienced asset. The Chilean played with SKCalalas last year, and claimed the 3rd place spot, securing a ticket to Katowice, though they were knocked out at the earliest stage. Prozy also won a Monthly Final in 2023, and though they may not have as high expectations as other rosters, they are sure to be a contender to cause major upsets.
