VALORANT Pro Diana 'sonder' Zhang Announces Retirement, Red Bull Instalock 2025 to Be Her Final Tournament

Posted : 02 May 2025

Diana 'sonder' Zhang, one of the most experienced players in VALORANT's Game Changers scene, has announced her retirement from competitive esports. The Chinese American duelist, currently playing for FlyQuest RED, shared that the Red Bull Instalock 2025 will be her final tournament before stepping away to focus on other personal goals.

 

 Sonder expressed her gratitude for the support and experiences throughout her career, noting that she isn't sad it's ending, but is instead thankful for everything that has happened.

 

Sonder's esports journey began in 2021 with Moon Raccoons Black, and it didn't take long for her to gain recognition, eventually joining Shopify Rebellion GC. During her time with Shopify, she helped lead the team to a runner-up finish at the 2022 Game Changers Championship.

 

 In January 2024, she moved to FlyQuest RED, where she stayed until her decision to retire was announced. FlyQuest RED expressed their appreciation for her contributions, highlighting her impact both on the team and in the broader esports community.

 

Although retiring from competitive play, sonder will continue to engage with her fans through streaming on her Twitch channel. Her final appearance on stage will be at the Red Bull Instalock event in London on May 2nd and 3rd, which will be streamed live on Red Bull Gaming’s official channels.

 

Sonder's departure comes alongside other notable players taking breaks, such as Ava 'florescent' Eugene, who also announced a hiatus from the 2025 season.
