Comment from WAYACHANGU
We are very happy to have Rakuten's support for our participation in the ALGS World Tournament. We have already received a lot of support from Rakuten, as we were anxious to participate in the competition after the sudden dissolution of MOZE, our organization. We are very happy to be able to head to Los Angeles with all of our members.
Rakuten will hold the "Rakuten esports cup" as an e-sports related business from July 2022. Rakuten will continue to host e-sports tournaments and support teams, as well as engage in a variety of other initiatives that will contribute to the revitalization and development of the e-sports industry as a whole. We will continue to support e-sports tournaments and teams."

Professional e-sports team "MOZE" announces sudden dissolution in March 2024.
突然のご報告となりますが、eスポーツチームMOZEは解散する運びとなりました。 代表と連絡が取れない状態が続き、運営の継続が不可能と判断。 大変お恥ずかしい限りですが、全部門でLFTを出させていただきます。

In April 2024, the professional e-sports team "MOZE" suddenly announced its dissolution due to a lack of communication with its representative. YOKOYARI", an Apex Legends team, was also affected by the turmoil, but soon after, the team was successful in the ALGS regional qualifying round and qualified for the main competition.
The incident occurred at a critical time for the team, but with the support of Rakuten, the team should have nothing to worry about for the ALGS main competition. We look forward to seeing the success of the "RED Rams" as well as the "YOKOYARI," who overcame adversity to achieve their goal.
