Overwhelming negative response to EG VALORANT championship merch prompts public apology

The story of Evil Geniuses’ 2023 VALORANT season is an unforgettable one. The North American underdogs started with dismal expectations only to go on an improbable late-season run that manifested in two international tournament grand finals and even a world championship.
But the faithful were not rewarded with commemorative gear up to championship standards, prompting a response from EG. The team’s marketing department posted an apology today, less than two days after the VALORANT roster lifted the Champions trophy, attempting to explain the situation.
