Former Overwatch player is on the VCT 2023 roster, according to Talon Esports.

Thai organization Talon Esports has unveiled its VALORANT roster for the inaugural season of the APAC international league next year.

Patiphan Chaiwong, a former Overwatch player, is leading the group of six players that Talon Esports has signed. In 2020, Patiphan quit Overwatch to pursue a career in VALORANT, but he later joined the Los Angeles Gladiators in the Overwatch League.

However, Patiphan has returned since leaving Overwatch on September 22 and been therefore released from the Gladiators.

Today, @itsPatiphan is retiring from Overwatch.

An energetic teammate and dynamic player, we can't thank him enough for not only his contribution to our team, but the joy he inspired within the entire Overwatch community.
