Team Vitality Adds CrossFire, PUBG, And COD: Warzone Rosters
Team Vitality has announced the signing of two new rosters as it expands into CrossFire and PUBG esports. The team has expanded ahead of the World Cup, poaching rosters from ROC Esports and Nemiga Gaming, respectively. The French team has also unveiled a new Call of Duty: Warzone roster, highlighting its desire to dominate this year’s World Cup.
The new signings also follow the January signings of 16-year-old Tekken fighter, Neia, and the organisation’s first Age of Empires roster.
CrossFire Roster
Vitality has taken ROC Esports CrossFire roster, consisting of Youssef “tottziN” Nasser, Ahmed “SNARE” Salah, Mohamed “Snake” Ahmed, Mohamed “Horus” Mahrous, and Abdelrahman “slayer” Fawzy, along with coach Andrei “strey” Solovev and general manager Kislay “Drolo” Satyaj. They have also added two subs, Ammar “Apps” Ahmed and Abdelrhman “Bone” Mahmoud.
The former ROC lineup finished second in the CrossFire Stars EUMENA Regional Finals. They will be competing in the upcoming CrossFire West League (EMEA), in the hope of qualifying for the EWC.
PUBG Roster
Having been absent from the competitive PC PUBG scene for 7 years, Team Vitality is making a return this year. Players Aliaksandr “Gedrox” Puchko, Vladislav “Lev4nte” Tasenko, and Artem “hallomybad” Baskakov, as well as manager Sergei “MrTok” Britok, have joined from Nemiga Gaming.
The roster is completed by Andrey “Qw1zzy” Pobedinskiy and Coach Ramazan “H1RUZEN” Valiullin from Geekay. The Nemiga team previously finished 6th in the PUBG Global Championship.
Call Of Duty: Warzone Roster
Also joining Team Vitality are Rasim “Blazt” Ogresevic, Logan “Skullface” Greifelt, Angel “Sage” Quinones , and coach Ethan “Ebatez” Bates. The trio will be hoping to forge a path to the EWC through the Warzone Resurgence Series in the coming months, including at Dreamhack Atlanta.
Team Vitality, who recently won IEM Krakow, finished third in last year’s World Cup Club Championship. They amassed 4,050 points behind second-placed Team Liquid’s 4,200 points and winners Team Falcons’ impressive 5,200 point haul. They will be hoping that the new rosters, which will likely see them competing across more events this year, will help them secure an improved finish.
The Esports World Cup 2026 takes place from July 6 to August 23. This year’s competition, staged in Riyadh, will have its highest-ever prize pool of $75m, and feature 25 events played across 24 esports.
