Ukrainian esports organization NAVI has announced that it has entered the VALORANT scene. NAVI, one of the well-established clubs of the Counter-Strike: Global Offensive scene, will now take its place in the VALORANT scene.
The first member of the Natus Vincere VALORANT cast will be Kirill “Cloud” Nekhozhin. He previously played in the CrowCrowd and HONK teams.
VALORANT has developed greatly in the world since its launch. Although the discipline is still at an early stage in the CIS, things are looking promising. Therefore we want to develop the game in our region. Our goal is to bring as many top-ranked players to the world championships as possible. We are happy to announce Cloud as our first VALORANT player. Together we will form a lineup worth cheering for. In the next 1-2 months, we will be doing tryouts of different players and watching the results of the VCT qualifiers, after which we will work out the final roster.
NAVI Chief Operating Officer Aleksey “xaoc” Kucherov
“I’m honored to be a part of NAVI and incredibly happy to get this chance! I’m willing to work even harder now. I know that many fans are rooting with all their hearts and I would like to give something back! I have been given the opportunity to prove that I am a VALORANT player for a reason, I will do my absolute best. Further, I want to say thank you to Alexei and Vlad. Without them none of this would have happened!”
