The European squad has yet to lose a tournament they've been a part of maintaining their unbeaten run as one of their stars suffered a tragic loss mid-tournament.
G2 remains undefeated in Valorant as they win the Allied Esports Oddysey tournament

G2 Esports continues to dominate the Valorant European scene, as they took the Allied Esports Odyssey event under the harshest of circumstances as one of their players suffered the tragic loss of a relative mid-tournament.

David "Davidp" Prins received the news of his father's passing as he was streaming his POV during the group stages against FunPlus Phoenix, the team they would eventually beat in the grand finals 2-0 after Team Liquid in the previous round.

In an impressive feat of mental fortitude, Davidp not only continued playing the tournament but did so outstandingly. He ended the event with a 1.20 K/D/A ratio and one of the highest first blood per rounds in the entire tournament.

Ardis "Ardiis" Svarenieks, the Latvian superstar that's yet to lose a best-of-three finals in his Valorant career, came in clutch once again, netting 21 kills, 10 assists, and only 11 deaths in Ascent to establish dominance over FPP. However, Oscar “Mixwell” Cañellas performed at a beastly level throughout the entire event, topping the stats charts almost across the board.

While FunPlus Phoenix was finding success with their rotations on the attack, not allowing for consistent G2 site retakes (finishing 5-7 and 7-5 in both maps), the inability to defend it themselves was noteworthy, as G2 completely ran over them, only securing two rounds while defending.

With this win, G2 has now secured four tournaments in a row as the Allied Oddysey victory came after they would achieve number one placements at the Mandatory Cup, WePlay! Invitational, and the Vitality European Open, all part of the Valorant Ignition Series.
