by Annie Roberts, who has been on Cloud9 White’s team for a year and a half, is leaving competitive VALORANT to concentrate on content production.
Annie has had tremendous success in the VCT NA Game Changers competitions during her stay with Cloud9 White. She and her squad have won four Game Changers events while losing only a few matches.
Cloud9 took to their official Twitter page to say they are grateful to still have the player in their organization, irrespective of her decision to seize playing.
“Today @Anie_Dro steps down from the Cloud9 White competitive roster and joins our stream team as a content creator.
“Thank you for being part of such a legendary roster and we’re glad you’re staying.”
Annie stated in a TwitLonger that the news may have caught the public?off guard, but that she had been considering leaving the squad for some time. She attributes her choice to lengthy work days and fatigue.
“I?think it’s obvious where this goes, working obsessively over 70 hours a week was destroying my mental health and motivation as time went on until eventually I got very sick of playing,” Annie said.
“I also feel like because of this, I was plateauing as a player and not making any improvements which just made me feel worse and added further mental deterioration.”
Annie will now be available to stream on C9 Umbrella. During the time that she is focusing on improving both her physical and mental health, she has stated that she will resume streaming a range of games and will produce content that is enjoyable.
However, there won’t be a vacuum in the lineup because Annie will be replaced by Bob Tran, who was a member of Soniqs in the past. Bob is a skilled player, and many people speculated that she would be added to a men’s squad; nonetheless, it has been decided that she will fill the open slot on Cloud9 White that Annie vacated.
Recently, Bob was playing for the Susquehanna Soniqs, which is a team based in Philadelphia. After Bob became a free agent in March, there was significant conjecture over the direction in which she might take her career. Now that she has found a home with one of the greatest teams in women’s VALORANT, her addition will guarantee that Cloud9 White will continue to be the squad that other teams must strive to defeat.

Later this month, supporters of Bob and Cloud9 White will get the opportunity to watch them battle against one another. On June 30, 2022,?the second VCT NA Game Changers competition will get underway.
