Boaster secures Valorant ace with a DDR dance mat
In acontent piece for Fnatic, the organization challenged Boaster to play Riot Games’ FPS with a DDR dance may instead of the traditional mouse & keyboard. Granted, he could still use both, but the DDR mat was his main method of moving around and using abilities.
Facing a potential round loss, the IGL kicks in his skills with a quick three-piece as he and Omen attempt to plant A on Lotus. The bomb goes down, and during the clutch, Fnatic challenges him to bust out a K-pop dance amidst the chaos.

Aside from the big ace, Boaster manages to spread the cheer in-game. The overall goal was for him to complete four challenges, such as getting his teammates to sing. He does just that, as he gets his teammate to sing “Gangnam Style.”
By the video’s end, Boaster reigns supreme despite his team losing the Valorant match. For his efforts, he nabbed a set of NewJeans photocards, which he seemed to enjoy.
With the VCT season kicking off soon, here’s hoping Boaster brings it on stage.
