Daniela Gradl, popularly known as “Jupi,” is a professional VALORANT esports from Austria who is working as a streamer at her current team, GIANTX. She joined the team and appeared as a member for the first time on December 14, 2023. Before she joined GIANTX Rooster, she was a part of EXCEL GC and Esports, where she was the game’s initiator and streamer.
Her first appearance in the esports industry was on September 21, 2020, when she played for Endpoint as a streamer. Later, she was scouted by several teams when her tenure with previous ones ended. She had the opportunity to be a part of LAGALS, Rix.GG Lightning and EXCEL before moving to GIANTX. She has different roles in every team; however, she has been a streamer in most of them.
The gears she uses for the matches are HyperX Cloud Earbuds, Logitech G Pro Wireless mouse, HyperX FURY S mousepad, and HP Omen X 25f monitor. The refresh rate of her monitor is 240hz, and its resolution is 1920×1080, which makes it easier for her to access and play the game.
Daniela, along with her teams, has participated in multiple tournaments such as Girls’ House- EU Open, VCT 2021: Game Changers EMEA series, Huntress Trails, and Yuletide Brawl- EU, for Tiers C and B. Among the tournaments she had played, her team secured 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 7th, and 8th positions in different matches in different years. The Austrian player was also awarded the MVP of the match in VCT 2021: Game Changers EMEA Series 1, during which she was a member of Rix.GG Lightning.
During her esports career from 2020 to 2024, Jupi was inactive for personal reasons after February 26, 2022, after which she was released from the rooster. She made a comeback with a different team and has been a regular player since then. Although there were a few matches in which she was allowed for roundabouts, she had been showing her exceptional gaming skills to the world. Her presence of mind, gaming techniques, strategies, role in the team, and dedication to esports make her worthy of being in the industry. It won’t be wrong to manifest/ expect more excellent performances from her in the future VALORANT tournaments.
