The Valorant esports scene has seen some heavy roster changes recently. And it looks like Cloud9 just followed the lead with some changes to their Valorant roster too!
This year, we've seen some of the craziest Valorant esports roster changes ever. Especially with the quickest addition and release of players on 100 Thieves. Now, Cloud9 also announced a recent Valorant roster change, so let's take a look at what's going on!
Cloud9 Release Xeta & Autumn In Valorant Roster
Unlike previous roster changes, Cloud9 didn't experience some kind of big losses as of the recent VCT Challengers NA Stage 2 2022. Although they didn't qualify for VCT Masters Reykjavik 2022, they're still standing with 50 Circuit Points. Nevertheless, Cloud9 just announced their recent Valorant roster change: the release of Xeta and Autumn.

Xeta and Autumn had joined Cloud9 back in January 2021. They were in the organization for a pretty long time, so this news came off as a bit surprising to the fans. What came even more surprising is that Autumn and Xeta actually joined T1.

T1 suffered big losses this year like failing to qualify for VCT Stage 2 Challengers, so their Valorant roster change was a bit expected. With their addition to T1, we even got another transfer back to Cloud9…
Cloud9 Add Curry For Zeta In Valorant Roster
Cloud9 also announced that they'll add Curry from T1 to their Valorant roster now that Zeta is gone. The plan was for him to play against Evil Geniuses, but something didn't work out, so we'll see him in the match against OpTic Gaming on May 22. OpTic were the winners of VCT Masters 2022, so Cloud9's roster change will bring in some spice!
