|content=FURIA has unveiled an entirely new roster for the 2026 VALORANT Champions Tour (VCT) season, marking a major shift for the Brazilian esports organization. The revamped team features a mix of seasoned VCT veterans and rising tier-two players, signaling FURIA’s ambition for the upcoming season.

In the official announcement, FURIA said, "2025 has been the year of the panther. Now, there’s just one piece left to fit: It’s time to activate our secret agents." The statement hints at an exciting new chapter for the organization, which has long been a powerhouse in the Brazilian esports scene.

The new FURIA VALORANT roster for the 2026 season includes:

Arthur ‘artzin’ Araujo (Sentinel)

Daniel ‘eeiu’ Vucenovic (Initiator)

GianFranco ‘koalanoob’ Potestio (Flex)

Michael ‘nerve’ Yerrow (In-game Leader & Controller)

Torogul ‘alym’ Baidyldaev (Duelist)

Luiz ‘basic’ Tessaro (6th Player)

Ian ‘shaW’ Jardim (Head Coach)

Lucas ‘Kamino’ Kamino (Assistant Coach)

Artzin, eeiu, and koalanoob are already familiar faces in the VALORANT esports scene. Artzin, formerly of MIBR, is particularly noted for his fearless flash-initiator play during VALORANT Champions Paris in September 2025. Eeiu and koalanoob have both previously competed for top-tier VCT teams, with eeiu having played for 100 Thieves and koalanoob for NAVI.

The new additions to the roster include nerve, alym, and basic, who will all make their tier-one debuts with [[Companies/FURIA|FURIA]] next year. Basic comes from 2Game Academy, while nerve and alym previously competed for QoR Gaming in Challengers North America.

In addition to the players, FURIA has also appointed shaW as the new Head Coach and Kamino as the Assistant Coach. ShaW is a seasoned coach with experience working with organizations such as MIBR Fe and RED Canids in the Challengers and Game Changers scenes. Kamino has a background as an Analyst for Team Liquid Brazil before joining FURIA.
