Sheep Esports: GAM line up crazyguy as their first Valorant signing

Sources told Sheep Esports that Vietnamese IGL crazyguy is expected to leave RRQ and become GAM Esports' first Valorant signing for VCT Pacific 2027.

The Vietnamese in-game leader is expected to leave Rex Regum Qeon after two seasons and lead GAM in their first VCT Pacific season in 2027.

Ngô “crazyguy” Công Anh is set to become GAM Esports’ first Valorant signing ahead of their VCT Pacific debut in 2027, Sheep Esports reports. Neither GAM nor crazyguy has confirmed the move, and Rex Regum Qeon have not announced his departure.

The move would bring a Vietnamese in-game leader to a Vietnamese organisation in its first Valorant season. GAM are best known for League of Legends and only founded their Valorant team on 28 September. Riot then named them one of eight VCT Pacific partner teams for the 2027 and 2028 seasons, which gives them a direct place at Kickoff in January.

GAM have not announced any players or staff yet. On 3 November, the club asked its fans who should be its IGL.

Two seasons as RRQ’s caller

The 30-year-old joined RRQ in March 2025 and had an instant impact. RRQ won VCT Pacific Stage 1 with a 3-1 final against Gen.G, reached Masters Toronto and finished second in Stage 2 after a 3-1 defeat to Paper Rex in the final. That took them to Champions Paris, where they went out in the group stage. VCT Pacific named crazyguy its in-game leader of the year for 2025.

2026 was harder. RRQ finished fourth at Kickoff after a 3-1 loss to Paper Rex in the lower final, and fell to T1 in the Stage 1 playoffs. They qualified for the Esports World Cup but lost both their series there. In Stage 2, a 2-3 group record sent them to the Play-Ins, where defeats to Sharper Esports and FULL SENSE ended their hopes of reaching Champions Shanghai.

Sova has been his main agent throughout his career, with Omen, Fade and Breach also in his pool.

From Counter-Strike to the Pacific league

crazyguy started out in Counter-Strike before switching to Valorant in 2020. His path to the partner league ran through Southeast Asia:

  • Steal Your Glory (2020 to 2021)
  • Team Big BAAM and Nigma Galaxy (2021 to 2022)
  • Bleed Esports (2022 to 2024), winners of VCT Ascension Pacific 2023 with a 3-0 grand final
  • Disguised (2024 to 2025), winners of Challengers Southeast Asia Split 3 in 2024
  • Rex Regum Qeon (2025 to 2026), VCT Pacific Stage 1 champions in 2025

The Ascension title took Bleed into VCT Pacific for 2024, but crazyguy was moved out of the active lineup in March that year and only returned in May. Bleed finished 11th in Stage 2, and he rebuilt his name with Disguised in Challengers before RRQ came for him.
