Corey "Corey" Nigra, widely considered to be one of the top stars of Overwatch League, announced Friday he will retire from Overwatch and pursue a career in Riot Games' new FPS, VALORANT.
"When I was younger, I had the ambition to go pro in Counter Strike," Corey explained in a Twit Longer post. "Seeing Valorant as a hybrid between CS and OW, this looks like the game that was made for me."
Corey went on to individually thank his former Washington Justice teammates. The Justice are currently second last in the OWL standings.
