The first real success b1t had was the victory with team NOTBAD at the open qualifiers of the CIS Minor Championship - Berlin 2019. Then Valerii participated in the NAVI’s project Esports Camp: he showed an outstanding performance and was one of the first to receive an invitation to NAVI’s Junior team. At the end of 2020, b1t became the sixth player of the Natus Vincere CS:GO team. He usually substituted flamie on map Inferno but in April of the following year, he became part of the main roster, replacing flamie permanently. Valerii is famous for his headshots and reaffirmed this at the PGL Major Stockholm 2021, where he had the highest average number of headshots per round and also set a record for the Major tournaments.
