FURIA is moving its female Counter-Strike team into VALORANT, where the lineup will now carry the FURIAVAL identity. The change was shared through a Reddit post featuring FURIA’s announcement.
FURIA’s message presents the transition as a continuation of the organization’s competitive identity. The Panther branding remains in place as the team enters another game, with the announcement pointing to the same drive to compete and win.
FURIA fe leaves Counter-Strike with a title
FURIA fe spent six years representing the organization in Counter-Strike, collecting several South American titles along the way. The roster finished as runner-up at three ESL Impact League Finals before finally breaking through with the Season 7 championship.
The ESL Impact circuit was placed on indefinite hold at the end of 2025, while several organizations parted ways with their lineups afterward. That left fewer regular opportunities for women’s Counter-Strike teams as FURIA fe began its next chapter.
FURIAVAL’s five-player roster
The lineup features four Brazilian players and one Argentine player:
- Karina “kaahSENSEI” Takahashi
- Izabella “izaa” Galle
- Gabriela “gabs” Freindorfer
- Bruna “bizinha” Marvila
- Lucia “lulitenz” Dubra
FURIAVAL’s first competition remains unknown
FURIA’s announcement did not include player names, a league, a tournament, or a debut date for the new VALORANT lineup. The five-player roster is now known, but FURIAVAL’s first competitive appearance remains unannounced.
