First up, Oasis released two of their mainstays in Mark “Ripper” Laguardia and Kurt Francis “kurtesy” Cinco. The pair helped Oasis Gaming soar high this year as they reached the VCT PH Stage 1 Playoffs and even clinched a spot at the APAC Stage 2 Qualifiers. However, their last outing with the team ended in dismay as Oasis Gaming faltered against RRQ in the semifinals of the Predator League 2022 – Philippines VALORANT.
