Riot Games ONE PRO INVITATIONAL: Day 1
NAVI VALORANT will play their first matches at the Riot Games ONE PRO INVITATIONAL showcase tournament in Japan with an updated roster. The Bo1 matches against Bleed Esports and DetonatioN FM will begin at 09:00 am and will be played one after another.
Both of tomorrow's opponents play in the Pacific region. Bleed Esports dominated the Ascension Division last season, finishing first and earning a spot in the 2024-25 VCT Pacific League. Despite their success, the team resorted to offseason reshuffles, adding Egoist and yay to their roster.
DetonatioN FM played in the upper division of the VCT 2023: Pacific League, but failed to win a single match in 9 games, having won only two maps. The team has since revamped their roster and signed Crazy Raccoon players.
Recall that on October 11th NAVI presented an updated VALORANT roster. Mehmet "cNed" Yağız İpek left the team and his place was taken by Ardis "ardiis" Svarenieks.
