esports world on the final day of Week 1 of VCT Pacific by securing a remarkable 2-1 victory over T1.<\/p>\n<p>This triumph not only marks a significant milestone for the team but also signifies their first victory in the <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/valorant\/champions-tour\/\" title=\"VCT betting guide\">VCT<\/a> Pacific scene since joining the franchise in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Breaking free from a daunting losing streak that has haunted them since April 2021, DFM&#8217;s win injects newfound confidence and momentum into the team&#8217;s dynamics.<\/p>\n<p>Their victory against T1, a top-three team from VCT Kickoff, is particularly noteworthy, showcasing their capability to compete at the highest level.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">THEIR TIME IS NOW

src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\nThe match unfolded with intense action across three maps.<\/p>\n<p>On DFM&#8217;s pick of Ascent, despite T1&#8217;s strong defence, DFM displayed resilience and tactical prowess, ultimately clinching the map with a score of 13-10.<\/p>\n<p>T1 retaliated on Lotus, dominating the first half and securing a convincing victory at 13-5; however, in a fiercely contested battle on Sunset, DFM emerged victorious with a hard-fought 13-11 win.<\/p>\n<p>This breakthrough victory was the culmination of dedicated efforts and strategic enhancements, including the appointment of Moon &#8220;Astell&#8221; Ji-won as head coach and &#8220;NorthernLights&#8221; as a coach, aimed at bolstering the team&#8217;s competitive edge.<\/p>\n<p>Emotions ran high as players and fans celebrated this long-awaited triumph.<\/p>\n<p>Tears of joy were shed, evident in the emotional reactions of players like Ibuki \u201cMeiy\u201d Seki.<\/p>\n<p>The significance of this victory resonates deeply, as it not only ends a prolonged period of disappointment but also marks DFM&#8217;s first series win since First Strike Japan in December 2020.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/news\/\" class=\"contentLinkBtn\">More esports news<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Detonation
