With VALORANT Champions 2022 starting in a week’s time, Riot Games has unveiled special murals to boost home support for Paper Rex (Singapore), XERXIA Esports (Thailand), and BOOM Esports (Indonesia), as well as to introduce VALORANT Esports to the general public.
SINGAPORE, THAILAND, INDONESIA – To pay tribute to the skill and passion of APAC teams, Riot Games is collaborating with leading artists in Singapore, Thailand, and Indonesia to immortalize their stories in a series of exclusive murals.
A Paper Rex mural was painted on the side of the *SCAPE building located on Orchard Road, the main shopping district and also commonly known as the heart of the city-state, to commemorate the Singaporean squad’s successful VCT campaign this year, most notably representing APAC in the grand finals of VALORANT Masters Copenhagen, and their qualification for Champions. The artwork, which features all the five players and the coach of Paper Rex, was commissioned by Singapore-based visual artist Sam Lo.
