VAC Banned CS:GO Player Jamppi Announces His Transition To Valorant

Elias Olkkonen, known as “Jamppi,” is a 19-year-old Finnish CS:GO player who had been playing for ENCE since April 2020. In his career, he only earned around $40.000 from the tournaments.

When he was younger, Jamppi got a VAC ban on his steam account and because of that, he was suspended by Valve from the Valve sponsored events. Even though he sue Valve, it didn’t do anything for him, unfortunately.

Following this problem, Jamppi took his official Twitter account to share a new post and made a huge announcement about his future career.

In the post, Jamppi announced that he will be playing Valorant from now and announced his retirement from the CS:GO scene. Also, Jamppi stated that he hopes to be one of the best players in Valorant.

Here is what Jamppi said:

“I will be switching to Valorant. The first reason all of you know. But obviously, it’s like a fresh start for me.

Mentally also, I think it’s a very good thing that I can play freely and compete and hopefully become one of the best players in that game.”
