Turkish esports club Eternal Fire is preparing to enter the main VALORANT stage. According to sources from Sheep Esports, the organization will buy the league slot of ULF Esports in VCT EMEA, which could become one of the biggest roster changes of the 2026 season.

Although ULF Esports earned their place through the Ascension tournament, their time in the league was marked by serious financial problems. There have been multiple reports about delayed or completely missing payments to players and staff for several months. Riot Games terminated their partnership with the organization due to violations of contractual obligations.

It is expected that Eternal Fire will keep the core of the former ULF roster, but with several targeted changes:

  • audaz
  • echo
  • nekky
  • Favian
  • Izzy (likely reinforcement from EF’s Turkish Challengers roster, replacing s0pp)

The coaching staff, including Afr0nfire and L7, is also expected to join Eternal Fire.

Recall that the results of the fifth match day of Female Pro League: Frozen Diva S1 have also been announced.
