I started with the idea of "What if we created 6 hero key arts" as our hero art expression for the event. But then, weaved a narrative between those key-arts, that would form the basis of a manga. Our story is of a fictional five-stack at VALORANT Masters, but due to their carelessness they find themselves on the verge of defeat. Taking the cue to RANK UP on the path to Champions, our five-stack pulls themselves together to create all-new strategies and take themselves all the way to the Grand Finals of VALORANT Masters. What's really cool about the manga, is while the heroes of the story are fictional, the characters and locations around them are the people and places of the event itself!
