|content=TSM has officially announced its departure from the VALORANT competitive scene, ending a five-year chapter that began during the game’s explosive early days. The organization confirmed the decision through a social media statement, expressing gratitude toward Riot Games, former players, and the community that supported them. According to TSM, there are currently “no immediate return in sight.”

The North American powerhouse first entered VALORANT in May 2020, at a time when the tactical shooter was quickly gaining traction worldwide. Its debut roster, composed largely of ex-Counter-Strike professionals, made an immediate impact, helping TSM emerge as an early favorite in North America’s growing esports scene.

“Throughout the last three years, we have continuously navigated the Challengers circuit in the hopes of finally reaching Tier 1,” TSM wrote in its statement. “Now, after half a decade in VALORANT, we plan on exiting the space.”

[[Companies/TSM|TSM]]’s final campaign was one of its strongest in recent memory. The team finished as runners-up at the VCT Ascension Americas 2025 Grand Finals on October 26, falling 3–1 in the championship match but securing a $22,000 (~£18,100) prize. Just a month earlier, TSM had claimed victory at VALORANT Challengers North America Stage 3, taking home an additional $25,000 (~£20,600).

The organization’s exit arrives amid ongoing adjustments to Riot Games’ VALORANT ecosystem. The publisher has recently overhauled its Tier 2 structure, revamping both the Challengers and Ascension systems. These updates include expanded opportunities in the Game Changers circuit and new promotion-relegation rules aimed at increasing competitive mobility.
