MIBR Targets LOUD Duo Lukxo and Erde for 2027 VALORANT

MIBR has submitted an offer to sign LOUD players Lukxo and Erde as the core of its 2027 VALORANT roster rebuild. The offer is awaiting a response from LOUD, and negotiations cannot move forward until the organization responds.

MIBR does not plan, at least initially, to bring back the players it previously benched. Lukxo and Erde are the organization’s first reported targets for its new lineup.

The duo won Champions 2026 with LOUD and finished second in VCT Americas Stage 2 during the same season. Lukxo has been with LOUD since 2025. Erde joined the team for the 2026 season and made his Americas debut in Stage 1.

Both players remain under contract with LOUD through the end of 2027 and have buyout clauses. Their departures have not been finalized, and neither has reached a verbal agreement with MIBR. Leviatán is also interested in signing Erde for the 2027 season.

The transfer window is scheduled to open Nov. 2. The date does not set a deadline for roster announcements. MIBR’s current offer remains the organization’s first step in pursuing the two players.

LOUD and MIBR did not comment on the offer. LOUD previously celebrated its Champions 2026 victory by describing itself as the first organization to win the world championship twice.

LOUD and MIBR are both set to compete in the 2027 VCT partnership program.
