UNC has officially parted ways with its VALORANT roster. The players will either take an extended break or seek new opportunities in the competitive scene.
UNC has been a familiar name in Vietnamese Valorant, making its debut in VCL 2024 Vietnam: Split 2 by sponsoring Team KOBIET—a roster of five young talents. However, they failed to make a significant impact that season, finishing in 7th place overall.
After a break, UNC revamped its lineup for Onlive Vietnam Series Season 1. The new roster initially performed well against top teams like Team Flash and BIG BAAM, maintaining a top 3-4 position in the first three weeks. However, in Week 4, UNC struggled, losing crucial rounds and ultimately finishing 5th-6th overall.
Following OVS Season 1, UNC acquired Rapid Lofi’s slot for the Relegation Stage of VCL 2025 SEA: Split 1. The team brought in four players from Rapid Lofi and BIG BAAM, along with foreign player d1srupt. They reached the semifinals but failed to qualify for the main stage after defeats against Xipto Esports and The Mongolz, finishing 4th overall.
UNC then entered Onlive Vietnam Series: Season 2, once again facing familiar teams. The roster changed, with QuinT replacing stand-in NhatThong2K. During the Swiss Stage, UNC had a strong showing, securing two wins and one loss against Fancy United. However, in the final week, they struggled against BEWD, who were in peak form, and Team Flash, finishing 4th again.
UNC’s manager addressed the decision to disband on the team’s fan page:
“The reason is simple—the Valorant tournament system in Vietnam does not align with the long-term plans our organization wants to build.”
