Missile's sixth season brought a second Japanese league title
Kim Joon-soo has been a professional since 2020, and Missile is the name Korean and Japanese crowds have read on scoreboards across both scenes ever since. His first title came quickly, the PUBG Mobile Street Challenge 2020 first half with XENON, and a short T1 stint followed before he settled at DS Gaming, where he won the Korean Pro Series' 2021 Season 1. Few players on the BMIC 2026 player list have a club history that runs this long.
Japan became his second home from 2022, when he joined VARREL and played the Japan League under its USG and VL banners. That spell brought the biggest results of his career: the PMJL Season 2 Phase 1 title in May 2022, second place in Phase 2 that October, two World Invitational appearances, and fifth places across Season 3 in 2023. A half-year with Gen.G Esports in 2024 is the last Korean stop on his published history before the record goes quiet.
October 2026 put him back on a winning roster, as one of two Korean veterans in the Valor five that won PMJL Season 6 Phase 2 on 341 points and took Japan's first BMIC seed. Whether Valor is a permanent home or a single-phase arrangement is not published, and Liquipedia still describes Gen.G as his last club, so this page records the Valor place as the current playing fact and nothing more. Mumbai, from 30 October, is his first BMIC.
Missile's first BMIC ended in 15th place for Valor. The Japanese side closed the Mumbai event on 64 points from 18 matches, with one Chicken Dinner and 43 finishes. Valor had reached Mumbai as PMJL Season 6 Phase 2 champions.
