Former CS:GO pro, Jampii, who filed a lawsuit against Valve is officially switching to VALORANT.
Elias “Jamppi” Olkkonen is a Finnish CS:GO professional player playing for the team ENCE. One of Jampii’s CS:GO accounts was VAC banned back in 2019, which he claimed to have sold to someone else. VALVE has a policy where any pro players who receive a VAC ban on any account cannot participate in any VALVE events.
Then, Jampii filed a lawsuit against VALVE GMBH, which ultimately failed because the subsidiary did not even exist during the VAC ban incident. That’s why the court did not consider Jampii to be a consumer and stated that there is no contract between them.
Furthermore, according to a Finnish newspaper, Ilta-Sanomat, ENCE is thinking about changing their CS:GO roster and leaving Jampii out. Considering all these things, Jampii recently revealed a video where he announced his official switch to VALORANT.
