Thai esports powerhouse FULL SENSE is stepping into the spotlight as they join the VCT Pacific, a significant move announced by Riot Games. This new chapter for the organization is set to last until the end of the 2026 season, marking a fresh start following TALON’s exit from the International League. TALON was removed due to its struggles in team management and operations, paving the way for FULL SENSE’s ascension.
The New FULL SENSE Roster
In an exciting development, FULL SENSE will retain all active players from TALON. Former in-game leader Crws will transition into a coaching role, while Leviathan, a long-time member of the team, will fill his place. The full roster proudly representing the team includes Thanyathon ‘Leviathan’ Nakmee, Jittana ‘JitboyS’ Nokngam, Papaphat ‘Primmie’ Sriprapha, Anupong ‘thyy’ Preamsak, Tanate ‘killua’ Teerasawad, with Thanamethk ‘Crws’ Mahatthananuyut as Coach and Thanaphat ‘Theeluvfamily’ Limpaphan as Assistant Coach. The organization energetically shared their enthusiasm, encouraging fans to “Fly Higher” with Thai spirit on social media.
Why FULL SENSE Was Picked
Riot Games emphasized several criteria for selecting FULL SENSE, including their operational readiness, strategic alignment, and ability to resonate with fans across Southeast Asia. Jake Sin, Head of APAC VALORANT Esports, noted the team’s deep connection with the Thai community and their impressive track record in regional competitions. FULL SENSE has been an active contender in the VALORANT esports scene since 2020, gaining prominence in 2021 by qualifying for VALORANT Champions through the VCT Thailand Challengers and the APAC Last Chance Qualifier. Despite narrowly missing qualifications in 2024, they have now secured a coveted spot in the International League.
Two New Organisations Join VCT Pacific 2026
Apart from FULL SENSE, SLT Seongnam is also joining the ranks of VCT Pacific, thanks to its dominant performance at the 2025 Ascension Pacific. Meanwhile, Nongshim RedForce has successfully defended its spot in the International League, avoiding relegation to the VALORANT Challengers League. This dynamic shift in team compositions promises an exciting 2026 season for the VCT Pacific.
