Announcements continue to roll in as the off season continues. Just today, the LA Valiant tweeted confirmation that they’re keeping their main coaching staff for the 2020 season. In the title of Head Coach is Mike “Packing10” Szklanny. Joining him as Assistant Head Coach is Warsi Faraaz “Stoop” Waris. In the roles of Assistant Coaches are Justin “reprize” Hand and Jordan “Gunba” Graham.
With the addition of Gunba, we are excited to announce that we have re-signed and extended contracts for our 2020 coaching staff!

While Valiant fans will recognize the first three names as coaches and staff from the 2019 season, some might not recognize Gunba. Last year, Gunba left the Valiant after the 2018 season to be the Head Coach for the Boston Uprising. Gunba was released from Boston after their turbulent 2019 season. Since then, he’s been welcomed back to the team he started with, the LA Valiant. Currently, Gunba is coaching Team Australia for the 2019 Overwatch World cup.
No other announcements have been made about the Valiant’s roster aside from their released players. Check in with TheGameHaus for updates on new signings, and which direction the Valiant will be headed in for 2020.
