American Coach Evan Olzem Will Leave Rex Regum Qeon After Four Years in Southeast Asian Valorant
His exit leaves the Indonesian organisation without a coaching staff, days after head coach Jovi was allowed to explore his own options.
Evan Olzem, the American Valorant coach known as Warbirds, said on 18 September 2026 that he would leave Rex Regum Qeon after four years with the Indonesian organisation.
The 28 year old spent two seasons as an assistant coach and two more as head coach. He said he was now looking for a head coach or assistant coach role for the 2027 season, and was open to working in any region and to relocating.
His time at the club included Rex Regum Qeon's first Valorant Champions Tour title in 2025, won while he worked alongside head coach Ewok, and the team's first appearance at an international event.
Before joining Rex Regum Qeon he coached Team Secret, taking the Filipino based side to the playoffs in 2023 and 2024 and to second place at the Pacific Last Chance Qualifier in 2023.
The departure leaves the coaching booth empty. Head coach Jovi was allowed to explore offers earlier in the same week, and Rex Regum Qeon are not among the 16 teams at Champions, which begins in Shanghai on 24 September 2026.
