Commercial snapshot

Role

Pro Player · Initiator / Flex

VLR lists Corbin Lee as C0M and tracks his VALORANT player record.[1]

Affiliation

FURIA · VALORANT[2]

FURIA's current VLR roster lists C0M as an active player after his July 2026 move from Evil Geniuses.[2][3]

Signature achievement

VALORANT Champions 2023 winner[4]

Won with Evil Geniuses; the current page distinguishes the historical title from his current FURIA affiliation.

Signature achievement

VALORANT Champions 2023 winner

C0M won the 2023 world championship as part of Evil Geniuses; his current FURIA role is separate from that historical title.[4]

Global recognition

2023 world champion

The achievement remains the clearest international authority marker in the reviewed player record.[4]

Market reach

United States · Americas VALORANT

VLR identifies him as a United States player and FURIA's current roster places him in the Americas circuit.[1][2]

PTG Database Analysis

This update corrects the prior page’s identity error: VLR identifies C0M as Corbin Lee, a United States player, not Michael Houston or a Canadian player. The current competitive record places him on FURIA from July 2026, while his 2023 VALORANT Champions title remains a historical achievement from his Evil Geniuses period.[1][2][3][4]

The commercial story is therefore a bridge between proven championship credibility and current Americas competition. Any activation must separate rights attached to C0M personally from FURIA, Riot Games, tournament, and platform rights; no standalone personal sponsorship is inferred from the roster or title record.
