The professional VALORANT scene just got a lot more familial. On November 8, Japanese organization QT DIG∞ officially announced the signing of the Kim brothers, Kim "Meteor" Tae-oh and Kim "TenTen" Tae-young, marking the first time the two have shared a team sheet in their careers.
This move is a massive statement for QT DIG∞. Meteor arrives with a decorated trophy cabinet, including a Masters Shanghai title and a Masters Bangkok victory where he earned MVP honors. His transition from T1 to the Japanese squad signals that the team is looking to move beyond their current standing and challenge the upper echelons of the Pacific region.
TenTen, meanwhile, brings a wealth of experience from his time with ZETA DIVISION, Team Secret, and most recently, Murash Gaming. While their paths have often run parallel—both having spent significant time competing within the Japanese ecosystem—they have previously only faced each other as opponents. Seeing them finally on the same side of the server adds an intriguing layer to the upcoming VCT 2027 season.
The organization’s decision to pair the two brothers is more than just a headline-grabbing move. QT DIG∞, which has been steadily building its presence in the Japanese scene, clearly intends to leverage Meteor’s championship pedigree to elevate their performance. The team’s 2026 campaign saw flashes of potential, including a notable win over REJECT in the Japan Finals, but consistency remained elusive.
With the roster now locked in and the team’s new branding already generating excitement, all eyes are on how this duo will integrate with the existing squad.
