A better Stage 2 showing for the team saw them win half of their matches and look to contend for a spot at playoffs, but they finished one game behind the top six and saw their season end in July.
In the short life of Wolves Esports' time in VCT, they have yet to qualify for the knockout rounds of any competition they've been in.
