runneR joins Team Vitality
Team Vitality are on their way to forming a new roster for the upcoming EMEA season in 2024. In today’s announcement, Vitality welcomed their new player, Emil "runneR" Trajkovski. The North Macedonian will have his first chance to compete in the highest division in EMEA. The rest of Vitality’s 2024 roster is still not clear.
runneR is the first signing of Team Vitality this offseason
Team Vitality had an average season in 2023. The organization started by placing 9th-16th in VCT 2023 LOCK//IN and then placed 5th-6th in VCT 2023 EMEA League. During the season, we heard the heartbreaking news of Twisten, which upset every one of us in the VALORANT community. As the season came to an end, Vitality let BONECOLD and MOLSI go. The team only had two Lithuanian players, ceNder and Destrian. After today’s announcement, a new North Macedonian blood has joined the team.
runneR is considered one of the most promising wonderkids in Europe. Last year he played for Diamant Esports. With his team, the North Macedonian player played in VALORANT Challengers 2023 East: Surge Split 2 but placed 3rd and missed the opportunity to play in the VALORANT 2023 Ascension EMEA challenge. In the past year, runneR had 76 games with Raze and 48 with Jett. He held a 1.35 rating with Raze and 1.28 with Jett. Looking at his all-time stats, runneR is sitting at a 1.26 rating and a 1.33 K/D, pretty impressive.
As mentioned, Team Vitality currently have three players on their active roster. Here is the current roster of the team:
-
Tomas “Destrian” Linikas
- Jokūbas “ceNder” Labutis
-
Emil “runneR” Trajkovski
Robert “Mulgan” Mulgan (Manager)- Salah “salah” Barakat (Head Coach)
- Harry “Gorilla” Mepham (Assistant Coach)
Marcus “marcus_askildsen” Askildsen (Performance Coach)- Joseph “Strong” Edwards (Positional Coach)
