Leviatán Drops Sato Amidst VCT Season Shake-Up
Leviatán, an Argentine esports organization, has reportedly decided not to renew the contract of Brazilian duelist Eduardo 'Sato' Nagahama for the 2027 VALORANT Champions Tour season. Sato played a crucial role in Leviatán's historic Masters London 2026 victory over Paper Rex.
Despite being an integral part of the team that won their first-ever international championship, Sato is now a free agent. He has expressed interest in joining a Brazilian organization and will likely explore options with other teams as the competitive landscape undergoes significant changes.
The 2027 VCT season will transition to an open-qualifier system, giving Sato and his representation a clear window to negotiate with prospective teams before the new cycle begins. With a fresh international championship on his resume and a strong negotiating position, Sato's future in VALORANT is set to unfold.
